Daffodil

Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Daffodil, Daffodil, tall and strong
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Before too long you'll have come and gone
What would you say if you could talk?
Where would you go if you could walk?
What would you think if you had a thought?
What would you sing if you had a song?
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Daffodil, Daffodil, tall and strong
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Before too long you'll have come and gone
How many suns have you seen?
How many moons were in between?
How many loves have you lost
While you saw yourself turn to dust?
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Daffodil, Daffodil, tall and strong
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Before too long you'll have come and gone
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Daffodil, Daffodil, tall and strong
Daffodil, Daffodil, sittin' on the windowsill
Before too long you'll have come and gone

Sweetest Melodies
03:55
|
|||
I'd search you out
pay no attention to the crowd
a sea of bodies
they don't mean anything
I'm drawn to your sound
The sweetest melodies
are running through your veins
and every word I ever heard you say
comes out as song to me
We've only time
and every intention to get it right
here comes the interlude
between our solitudes
ready to harmonize
The sweetest melodies
are running through your veins
and every word I ever heard you say
comes out as song to me
(solo)
The sweetest melodies
are running through your veins
and every word I ever heard you say
comes out as song to me
You are a Song to me

Let It Go
02:40
|
|||
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Though it hurts so deep in your soul
Another day come with the dawn
It's the only chance of movin' on
Sometimes you gotta let it go
When the good is gone what can you do?
You can't kick and scream it back to you
It's not about giving up the fight
But coming out on the other side
When the good is gone what can you do?
Brush the dust off your knees
Learn to bend like the trees
Embrace the change to ease the pain
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Cuz it'll hurt more if you don't
Clear the fog from your head
Stand up tall and take another breath
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
Embrace the change to ease the pain
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Though it hurts so deep in your soul
Another day come with the dawn
It's the only chance of movin' on
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Sometimes you gotta let it go

Out the Back Door
03:32
|
|||
I was born to tip toe
In and out of trouble
Wouldn't do what I was told
Oh, I enjoyed the heat below
When I was a child
No one would notice
I took what wasn't mine
But I'd escape before tellin' a lie
Out the back door, out the back door
And I'd go
Out the back door, out the back door
So if you want to start
To get a little dirty
Like sneakin' past the guards
I'll admit you'll get a charge
I'll tell you what to do
Once the plan's in motion
But you gotta follow through
It's the one rule before makin' a move
Out the back door, out the back door
And you'd go
Out the back door, out the back door
Hat tipped down, collar up, soft soled shoes, in the shadows
Keep it down, don't make a move, ok go, now run for it
Hat tipped down, collar up, soft soled shoes, in the shadows
Keep it down, don't make a move, ok go, and keep it secret
Here's another way
To go under the radar
While the bossman is away
Here's your chance, to make a play
At the factory
Don't get too greedy
Just pocket what you need
And go out with the other employees
Out the back door, out the back door
And we’ll go
Out the back door, out the back door
And we’ll go
Out the back door, out the back door
Out the back door, out the back door
Out the back door, out the back door

Guarded Heart
03:59
|
|||
What do you do with a Guarded Heart?
one that's so unsure
how do you tell it to love again
and trust that it's secure
Oh, what do you do with a Guarded Heart?
How do you break down the walls within?
towering so high
a pinhole of light is hope enough
so baby, please try
Oh, How do you break down the walls within?
I'm trying to love you
but I'm not getting through
Where do you turn when the compass breaks?
lost out at sea
the wandering waves will carry you
until you find your peace
Oh, where do you turn when the compass breaks?
What do you do with a Guarded Heart?
What do you do with a Guarded Heart?
What do you do with a Guarded Heart?
What do you do with a Guarded Heart?

Crazy Love
04:08
|
|||
I doubt it's worth a song but this is on my mind
I've told myself it's over and not worth my time
Cuz I tried too hard to make it work
And all the while you were focused on her
This is crazy, love
This crazy love
This is crazy, love
You don't see eye to eye but you sure want to
The constant push and pull will start to wear on you
Cuz you tried too hard to make it work
And all the while she put herself first
This is crazy, love
This crazy love
This is crazy, love
We can try to make
Sense of it all
The Crazy Love
For which we fall
We can try to make
Sense of it all
The Crazy Love
For which we fall
This is crazy, love
This crazy love
This is crazy, love
This is crazy, love
This crazy love
This is crazy, love

Remember the Music
02:44
|
|||
I don't recall where I left my keys
my hat I could swear it was here
I write myself notes
I find myself losing them
Clearly my memory's not clear
I tie a string around my finger
but I can't remember what for
Did I turn off the stove, or leave on the iron
Did I even lock the front door?
But there's always a thread
of melody in my head,
oh with all the things I forget
I Remember the Music
I see it now, the band was playing
I held you close in my arms
We swayed into the night
like we were the only ones
We were the brightest of stars
I couldn't tell you what you were wearing
The day, or the month, or the year
And we whispered words
sweet and endearing
But they are long gone from my ears
But there's always a thread
of melody in my head,
oh with all the things I forget
I Remember the Music
When I hear that song
I start singing along
The love that we share
it ain't going nowhere,
But there's always a thread
of melody in my head,
oh with all the things I forget
I Remember the Music

Mama's Lullaby
04:20
|
|||
I won't forget that summer night
The trees rustled in the breeze
From my bed I heard the call
That brought her to her knees
The day he died he took her heart
And I ran to her side
That's when I heard her sing to me
Mama's Lullaby
Mockingbird, little bell
Mockingbird, fare thee well
The day I die, please don't cry
Mama's Lullaby
Her ukulele gathered dust
There, hanging on the wall
I took it down to strum a chord
The tears, the tears began to fall
I wore my fingers to the bone
Her voice an echo in my mind
Damned the day I'd forget
Mama's Lullaby
Mockingbird, little bell
Mockingbird, fare thee well
The day I die, please don't cry
Mama's Lullaby

Empty Apologies
03:52
|
|||
I heard your story a hundred times
You've written songs and a thousand rhymes
I'm not saying I'm not listening
I've reached a limit
And I know what I'm not willing to put up with
Empty Apologies
Full of things that you don't mean
Empty Apologies
They don't fool me
Did you think I wouldn't care?
That I'm blonde and I got nothing up there?
Of all the things I could do
I've learned my lesson
And won't be tangled up with you
I'm not messin' with your
Empty Apologies
Full of things that you don't mean
Empty Apologies
They don't fool me
You coulda treated me better baby
You coulda treated me better baby
You coulda loved me better baby
Empty Apologies
Full of things that you don't mean
Empty Apologies
They don't fool me
Empty Apologies
Full of things that you don't mean
Empty Apologies
They don't fool me
They don't fool me. those
Empty Apologies
Full of things that you don't mean
Empty Apologies
They don't fool me
They don't fool me

Mon Cœur Vide
03:12
|
|||
Ta tristesse m'a fait chuter
De la lumière à l'obscurité
Le sombre, le noir
C'est tout ce que je vois
Ça suffit, mon cœur vide
Cette illusion du bonheur
Est seulement pour les amoureux
Rien ne change
Je suis seule et froide
Ça suffit, mon cœur vide
Si je croise un regard
Je suis sûr que c'est trop tard
Je ne veux pas croire
Que c'est lui qui me vois
Ça suffit, mon cœur
Ça suffit, mon cœur
Ça suffit, mon cœur vide
