Steaming Hearts
04:20

Steaming hearts' glory comes from rising up from pain.
The pieces put together are forgotten all the same.
It's the one who knew you best who can pull you to your worst
and the one you'd thought would last is the one who drops out first.
Always waiting for a big change
looking at me strange
like i'm the one who doesn't know what's to come.
I'm tryin' to stick with you
this thing we're holding to
but you make it so hard sometimes I'm thinking that we're through.
I can't keep on going on like everything's okay.
If you wanna keep me you gotta change your way.
I've done all I can do to see the diamond in the rough
and now I have had enough.
I will get over this, over so fast
I may cry through the night till my devil's gone at last.
This steaming heart will cool and melt into the past.
There's something to be said for trying out the smooth,
even though your words don't match your mood.
So you can slip on by and leave me to my peace
'cause I', done being crazy, I've got a release.
I will get over this, over so fast
I may cry through the night till my devil's gone at last.
This steaming heart will cool and melt into the past.
See to what you feel. Don't hide behind your face.
Breathe, breathe breathe through to heal. I'm falling into grace.
So it's good that you found me before I could do me harm.
I was lying in the grass singing vexes to the charms.
And I would have built that fire up to reach the sky
but the rains came down from a cloudless high.
I will get over this, over this and fast
This steaming heart will cool and melt into the past.

Trust Me
03:11

Let me talk you off this ledge
of “how” and “why” and “tell me when”.
Get down get down and come with me
and we’ll get down and we’ll get busy.
You can trust me.
You just need to believe
nothing’s wrong, it’s what you think.
You’re where you belong, so trust me.
Trust me, we’ve been here before.
We’ve said these words,
we’ve slammed that door.
Do you want to do it all again
or slip into my arms, babe, and make amends?
You can trust me.
All you need’s to believe
nothing’s wrong, it’s what you think.
You’re where you belong, so babe, trust me.
Stop your doubting and stop your crying.
Stop your pouting and your white-lying.
'Cause with me you will never fall, so
Start thinking that you’ve got it all.
You’ve got it all. All.
You will be sad, if you say so.
Everything’s bad, if you say
so turn it around and make your own truth.
I know you can do it, I believe in you.
You can trust me.
All you need’s to believe
nothing’s wrong, it’s what you think.
You’re where you belong, so trust me.

When I wanna go fast I take it slow
gotta feel the side to side to regain control.
If you were in my boots then you would know
it’s not about how high how long how deep the snow.
It’s that I got out of bed and I’m ready to let go
all the fears of my past, the sh*t I have to outgrow.
All I got is today to break through the plateau
and let you open up my heart so it can overflow.
CHORUS:
Side to side, my heart my guide
I’m reaching out, breathe in breathe out
Find your stride, the power inside
Can’t live without you, all about [you]
You know you cannot run you cannot hide.
You will give into me, my sweet jealous pride
‘cause the fear you show will soon subside.
We’re both face to face with side to side.
Find what works, you gotta go with it.
Try everything first and then bear and grin it.
Being true to yourself is not about winning.
You fight to be real and it’s always the beginning.
I may have hit the bottom hard, came out a little scarred
But now I know I got no excuse, time to turn in this card.
CHORUS
Words roll out like laughter from the sky
The minute that you say hello I wanna say goodbye.
The treasure that you give to me is pulling me to you.
The clarity I get from this has changed my point of view.
The clarity I get from this has changed my point of view.
When I wanna go fast I gotta take it slow
need to feel the side to side to regain control
If you could step in my boots then you would surely know
it’s not about how high how long how deep the snow.
It’s that I got out of bed ready to let it go.
All the fears of my past things I have to outgrow.
All I got is today to break through the plateau
so you can open up my heart and let it overflow.
CHORUS

Moving Towards Love
03:48

Lyrics:
We are moving towards love.
I put my coat on, I thought it would snow
I put my hat on, the TV told me so
Where is the forecast that tells me what to do?
The road map to what I want if what i want is you?
Looking in finding out who we really are
Fine tune every part till we get this far
Cut down trying to catch up, details on the move.
My heart stays in its place as long as this is true
Sing it up
Tried and true the thought of you, my soul's final wish.
Sing it on, and bring it home, all we know is this.

Sometimes you talk like you don't even care.
I know you won't admit that you're scared.
Sometimes I wake up alone in your bed
exhausted from wishing I could get in your head.
I just want to help, I just want to help, I just want to help bring you back.
Listen to me, I am listening to you.
I can't see your face but I can pull you through.
You've been the harbor through the storms of my life.
If I was the wind, I would lay down and die.
I just want to help, I just want to help, I just want to help bring you back.
Thinking back to the very last time I slipped away.
You were the one who gave me the strength
to fight another day.
Now I'm here
Now I'm here
Now I'm here for you.
I'd like to think we have all the control.
But I'm still here waiting and we're getting older.
So be here with me now, let these cuts you've revealed
heal in the sweetness of a love that is real.
Thinking back to the very last time I slipped away.
You were the one who gave me the strength
to fight another day.
Now I'm thinking back to the very last time I slipped away.
You were the one who gave me the strength
to fight another day.
Now I'm here
Now I'm here
Now I'm here for you.

Walkin’ down the city street
pockets full of chocolate treats
Air is clear, sky is blue
Nothin’ on my mind but you.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
I luv u.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
that every day is new… with you.
Listening to the quiet night
comfortable all tucked in tight.
Settled in and happy here
all because you are near.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
I luv u.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
that everyday is new… with you.
There’s nothing more and nothing less
than right now who care’s what’s next.
When you smile at me you warm my soul
and I can give up all control.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
I luv u.
Hey hey hey
I want to say
that every day is new.
Hey hey all
I need to say is
I luv u.
All I want
to say to you
is I love you.
I luv u.
That’s all I have to say.
Today.

Memory Lyrics:
She'll wash her troubles with the dishes
She dances with the drapes
She finds comfort in her computer
her piano is her playmate
And when Loneliness sneaks in
with his cousin Fear
she says "No no you don't belong, you don't belong here
I got rid of you last year.
I don't need a memory
I need something to hold
and I choose you, I choose you
so won't you come back home,
which is wherever I roam."
She writes him letters in her sleep
He keeps them in a box
With every closing line
there was something that he lost.
Oh to wake up to the sunny sky
and remember you exist
she sings “today’s the day
I remember how you kiss.
I remember how you kiss.
So I don't need a memory
I need something to hold
and I choose you, I choose you
So won't you come back home,
Some moments I can’t breath
What am I to do with that?
Sit here and wait to sing,
Hey la, my boyfriend’s back? Hey la, my boyfriend’s back.
Of all the things that you have seen,
will you let them go, be all you can be?
I never thought I’d be this strong
I love you so this can’t be wrong
This can’t be wrong.
And I don't need a memory
I need something to hold
And I don’t need I don’t need
I don’t need I don’t need just a memory
I need to hold you
and I choose you. I choose you
so won’t you come back home?
Won’t you come back home?
Won’t you come back home?

Time Out
03:18
|
|||
|
Sitting in my car, waiting for the rain to stop
though I’m soaking wet.
I’m fine watching the leaves laugh.
If I don’t move, maybe they won’t see me.
I’ll melt into the rain
somewhere in New York, Tennessee or Maine.
I’m taking a time out
to regroup with my dreams,
taking a vacation from the bright lights
and everything that they mean
I’m taking a time out for me.
I’m exploring the space between
second hand ticks and minute hand tocks.
And somewhere in there our eyes locked.
I’ve come with you this far
now I’ve got the key, need to start the car.
I’m taking a time out
to regroup with my dreams,
taking a vacation from the bright lights
and everything that they mean
I’m taking a time out.
Nothing’s making me want to leave
nothing’s making me stay.
I’ve got the voice to make the choice
and it’ll be okay.
Oh the things I find when I’m not looking,
and they trick me (though not against my will)
to sit here while the rain passes,
perfectly still.
I’m taking a time out
to regroup with my dreams,
taking a vacation from the bright lights
and everything that they mean
I’m taking a time out for me.
Let’s take a time out
to regroup with our dreams,
take a vacation from the bright lights
and everything they mean
I’m taking a time out for you and me.
A time out for me.
Sitting my car waiting for the rain to stop.

I’m the princess with the pea.
You’re straight from a story,
one I wake up to every morning.

My friends all agree
you bring out the kid in me.

It was love at third glance.

You bring out the kid in me,
the girl that’s wild and free.

you bring out the kid in me.

Where I Am
LYRICS
Naked on this rock in this creek
washed my body under the mountains.
It was almost religious if I hadn’t needed to wash so bad.
I’ll keep my past in my pocket
if you take me somewhere new
Where I am now has so much to do with you
you’re good for me I’m good for you
I want to see this through
Where I am now has so much to do with you
Where I am makes me love you
Where I am is you, where I am is you.
Recut the flowers you bought me at the market
hoping this water would make them last the flight
It’s almost like it’s magic water, I can’t believe it.
I’ll keep my past in my pocket
if you take me somewhere new
Where I am now has so much to do with you
you’re good for me I’m good for you
I want to see this through
Where I am now has so much to do with you
Where I am makes me love you love you
Where I am is you, where I am is you.
Maybe you’ll get better, maybe I’ll leave.
Maybe you really want this, maybe it’s me.
Maybe I love you more than myself.
Maybe I’m just scared, like everybody else.
Checking to make sure I’m still alone
by this creek in the sun
wondering if I wish you were here.
It’s almost nirvana if I wasn’t so nervous.
Where I am has so much to do with you
Where I am makes me love you
Where I am is you x 2
Where I am has so much to do with you
Where I am makes me love you
Where I am is you x 2
And I wanna see this through.

Fairytale
03:36
|
|||
|
Time waited for me to catch up with you
I slept through the century craving the new.
The new came to me in the form of this love
it cried up to me, so high up above
and I let down my hair.
Hearts are now clear
far is now near
I’m whispering fairytale dreams
in your ear
Down on bended knee
Bound to you now I’m free
Life is for loving
in our fairytale dream
The shining armor you wore that first day
can be hung in the closet, put safely away
we can set our white horse out to graze
never face anymore delays
for I will never leave your arms.
Hearts are now clear
far is now near
I’m whispering fairytale dreams
in your ear
Down on bended knee
Bound to you now I’m free
Life is for loving
in our fairytale dream
We planted a seed
watched it push through the weeds
and grow into something we could need
Hearts are now clear
far is now near
I’m whispering fairytale dreams
in your ear
Down on bended knee
Bound to you I’m free
Life is for loving
in our fairytale
Hearts are now clear
far is now near
I’m whispering fairytale dreams
in your ear
Down on bended knee
Bound to you now I’m free
Life is for loving
in our fairytale
I’m living a fairytale dream
with you here.

You’re not the only one who needs a pick me up.
Even I could use something more than luck.
So come with me we’ll go as far as we can go,
and we’ll find peace, we’ll find love and we will find hope
Chorus 3:
In the light of the dawn where the troubles of yesterday have gone.
In the light of the dawn we found a place where we belong.
We will be strong, like we knew all along, in the light of the dawn.
