V1
I’ll be with you when the summer calls
It sure has been such a long and rainy winter full of squalls
I’ll be with you when the tired angles lift their song once more,
Their hearts may not be in it but their voices carry on.
C1
Wait for it, wait for it
It was lovely here when your eyes lit
Your words up for a moment
Like ocean waves sing on the beach
V2
You’ll have to give up all that you hold dear
We’re all just dying in slow motion around here
I hope you’ll hold my hand if I begin to sink
I’m glad I shared this world with you for half a blink
of my eyelid.
C2
Wait for it, wait for it
It’s lonely when the colors drift
I’m sifting through the hours
But I can’t change a thing
Wait for it, wait for it
It was lovely when your laughter lit
The space beside me everyday
Or was that just a dream

Another World

v1
People talk,
Just like they’re on a stage
Reflecting light
In laughter or in rage
Don’t they know
A second’s like an age
Winding round
To show a different face
v2
Frequencies
They bind us to our ways
The rain it falls
Just like yesterday
The waves and patterns
Barely leave a trace
But in this moment
Joy lights up your face
c1
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never see another world
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never see another world
I’ll never see another world, I’ll never see another world
Oh no….
v3
Whispered sorrow
Written on a page
Reaches out
from past and lights my way
But in time
Every stone just fades
And falling shadows
Fill twisted wandering ways
c2
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never live another life
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never live another life
I’ll never see another world, I’ll never live another life
Oh no….
c3
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never see another world
Oh no, Oh no, I’ll never see another world
I’ll never see another world, I’ll never see another world
Oh no….

Settle For Less

v1
When you slipped away
It was an ordinary day
But if you can’t find yourself
with your heart up on a shelf
But I won’t sing with voices quaking
Even though my heart is breaking
c1
What if we can’t fight it anymore?
What if we can’t fight it anymore?
v2
Did we fail to say
we wanted you to stay
Or did you fail to fight
To find love in plain sight
But I won’t say this rage means nothing
Even if my sorrrow’s something
c2
What if we ain’t got it anymore?
What if we ain’t got it anymore?
c3
What if we can’t fight it anymore?
What if we ain’t got it anymore?
Outro
I’d have you whole but I’ll settle for less
I’d have you whole but I’ll settle for less
