Yes I'm new to loving you, every day  I don't want to make a mistake  I don't want to feel it out and I don't want to wait Like the wild wind on the sea You've got no idea what you're doing to me You’ve got no idea what you’re doing to me Hey, if I lose you in a hurricane  But hey, if I lose you in a race  I won't let go but I'm tired, okay? Alright  I need you a little bit closer to home I need twenty seconds alone I need you in the garden and I need you on the phone I'm somewhere between there and lonely You've got no idea what you're doing to me You've got no idea what you're doing to me Hey, if I lose you in a hurricane  But hey, if I lose you in a race  I won't let go but I'm tired, okay? But with fault lines running through your head What's the sense in choosing And with soft lines breaking up your step What's the sense in moving What's the sense in losing

Anchorage 05:02
Mama I've been living alone 'Cause I'm still adjusting to my heart Mama I've been moving too slow To back down now, it'd be more than I know But I never said that I'm losing  I turn around and say something stupid  I turn around and love’s always moving  So if I've got any luck it's you, man  And if I've got any luck it's you, man It's kind of like watching the weather come in On the coast of California It's kind of like needing you back again I just can't sleep without the air you're in So don't let me forget how to hold you 'Cause I'm still just a kid in your arms Don't let me forget where I'm going Everybody gets lost sometimes over the ocean But I never said that I'm losing  I turn around and say something stupid  I turn around and love's always moving  So if I've got any luck it's you, man  And if I've got any luck it's you, man And all my love

Let's give up tomorrow Let’s go run around  In your cheap dress I can be the moment  And you can be yourself -honest I could never love you  And you could never win  But I'll miss you more than anything  I miss you more than anything Take me in and wear me out Just take me in and wear me out 'Cause the kids are getting older Without any help And they 're running now Chase me into summer And tell me when I'm wrong Don't get funny now I could never love you And you could never win But I’ll miss you more than anything I miss you more than anything Take me in and wear me out Just take me in and wear me out I wish you could Take me in and wear me out Just take me in and wear me out Let's give up tomorrow Let’s go run around In your cheap dress I can be the moment And you can be yourself -honest And you can be yourself -honest And you can be yourself And you can be

You could be my comeback kid  I know God got it all wrong Should've had a daughter instead You could be my capital call I know Sundays break your heart And Monday's no use at all Waiting on a big jet plane Something's bound to change Looking for a love that won't burn fast Oh I need a slow romance You could be my northern light I know God's doing just fine  It's you I want to see tonight You could be my letter coming in  I know someday soon I'll slip I'll slip and fall in love gain Waiting on a big jet plane Something's bound to change Looking for a love that won't burn fast Oh I need a slow romance Oh I need a slow romance Oh I need a slow romance

Boxing Glove 04:01
Why don't you figure out your favorite combination  Of you and me, a bottle of wine, and close accommodations Baby just talk to me, and tell me all of the things that a girl like you needs, yea This time, maybe be my love song and be my tonight Come on, darling I can't wait on love  Could you shake me like a train wreck, hold me like a boxing glove? Come on, Bethany, I can't wait on love  Now I'm stuck, stuck in your bed and I can't wake up Why don't you figure out how to turn me on this time Everybody gets lonely, everybody gets caught up in life So baby just talk to me And tell me all of the things that a girl like you needs, yea This time, maybe be my love song and be my tonight. Come on, darling I can't wait on love  Could you shake me like a train wreck, hold me like a boxing glove? Come on, Bethany, I can't wait on love  Now I'm stuck, baby I’m stuck, baby I’m stuck, Stuck in your bed and I can't wake up, alright  Oh come on, darling, I can't wait on love  So could you shake me like a train wreck, hold me like a boxing glove? Oh come on, Bethany, yea I can't wait on love  Now I'm stuck, stuck in your bed and I can't wake up

Monterey 03:26
I think we're in trouble, kid Better burn all that we did And call it a strange Circumstance where the wind just got away And I think we're in trouble, love And this God's got his mind made up  And heaven's gate is just a metaphor for a fire escape You keep me running You keep me wondering, hey You keep me running You keep me walking away So let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea Let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea And I think we’re in trouble, babe We left it all in Monterey She said if it's true How come all I ever do is fall apart and think of you? I think we're in trouble now Dawn breaks on your mercury mouth wait I could never leave you and I mean that in a weird way You keep me running You keep me wondering, hey You keep me running You keep me walking away So let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea Let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea Let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea Let me watch you unwind And tell me that you're lucky yea

How'd I get seasick in Ohio? Waiting for the rain Suddenly it's so derivative Certainly it's a simple mistake How'd I get caught up in Chicago? Waiting for the rain At the risk of sounding serious Someday you're gonna circle back and blow away Nobody needs to be alone But I get so sick of holding on I might take all my memories, back to the start I don't need them where they are As I get older, older's not that far  I'm just killing time See it's been heavy on my mind This is different than a rodeo This is different than the rain I'm no good at being oblivious And when I get clever it's a God damn giveaway Maybe I'm a little off anyway Or maybe it's the rain But is there love in your head at all? I'm trying to find me in you in any way I might take all my memories, back to the start I don't need them where they are As I get older, older's not that far  I'm just killing time See it's been heavy on my mind

New Year 04:02
This is another new year And again I forget where we are Time's a wagon wheel spinning in the dark This is hard She’s got eyes like engines  And they’re burning all night She's got a simple set of telephone lips when she smiles And I could be here a while And I could be here a while You've been keeping me awake too late too long Somewhere we got careful and it all went wrong You've been keeping me awake too late too long So give me a moment instead Give me just a minute with your voice in my head I'm indifferent to be honest Stuck in between Tell me I know better, tell me make believe Tell me anything Tell me anything Tell me anything Oh come on You've been keeping me awake too late too long Somewhere we got careful and it all went wrong You've been keeping me awake too late too long So give me a moment instead Give me just a minute with your voice in my head Give me a moment instead Give me just a minute with your voice in my head Give me just a minute with your voice in my head
