Dirt Road Waiting
03:39
|
|||
I’m all packed up and I’m ready to ride,
Nowhere to go, nothing in mind,
But I’ve been spending all of my time,
Thinking ‘bout the open road.
I don’t look back ‘till I’ve crossed the border,
Then I slow down, onto the shoulder,
Map says I’m a short drive from nowhere,
So that’s where I’m gonna go.
There’s a dirt road waiting,
A sunset fading,
Down by the river there’s a band that’s playing,
Playing something slow.
There’s a time for staying
And a time for straying
From the path that we have taken,
So go find your dirt road- waiting.
You know those cities just ain’t for me.
They’re too much like galleries.
Everybody’s looking, but nobody sees
With too much on the wall.
I want real and I want true,
Dirt on my hands, mud on my shoes.
Gonna get out of town, take in the view,
And listen when freedom calls.
There’s a dirt road waiting,
A sunset fading,
And down by the river there’s a band that’s playing,
Playing something slow.
There’s a time for staying
And a time for straying
From the path that we have taken,
So go find your dirt road- waiting.
I’m gonna find some lost adventure,
Drive like it’s now or never,
Before I change my mind.
I don’t know when I’ll find it,
It’s all in the timing.
All I’ve gotta do is ride.
There’s a dirt road waiting,
A sunset fading,
And down by the river there’s a band that’s playing,
Playing something slow.
There’s a time for staying
And a time for straying
From the path that we have taken,
It’s in your control.
There’s a dirt road waiting,
A sunset fading,
And down by the river there’s a band that’s playing,
Playing something slow.
There’s a time for staying
And a time for straying
From the path that we have taken,
So go find your dirt road,
Go find your dirt road- waiting.

Scotch & Soda
03:33

I shouldn’t be here standing at your doorstep,
But you called me and you always get your way.
When I’m lonely, I can’t quite remember
Why I told myself that I should stay away.
Hold on, baby don’t move too fast.
Take it easy, before we can’t take this back.
You’re like scotch and soda,
Like rum and Coca-Cola.
One, two, three, four, just keep pouring,
It can’t hurt you ‘till the morning.
Like Jack and ginger,
Like kisses when they linger.
I could try to stay away,
But you know it don’t work that way.
All you give me is a headache and a heartache,
But tell me now who am I to blame?
My solution is just another problem,
When a little more seems like the only way.
Hold on, baby don’t move too fast.
Take it easy, before we can’t take this back.
You’re like scotch and soda,
Like rum and Coca-Cola.
One, two, three, four, just keep pouring,
It can’t hurt you ‘till the morning.
Like Jack and ginger,
Like kisses when they linger.
I could try to stay away,
But you know it don’t work that way.
I know you’re no good for me,
You know I don’t care.
I don’t have no strength to leave,
And you just don’t fight fair.
You’re like scotch and soda,
Like rum and Coca-Cola.
One, two, three, four, just keep pouring,
It can’t hurt you ‘till the morning.
Like Jack and ginger,
Like kisses when they linger.
I could try to stay away,
But you know it don’t work that way.
With scotch and soda,
With rum and Coca-Cola.
One, two, three, four, just keep pouring,
It can’t hurt you ‘till the morning.
With Jack and ginger,
With kisses when they linger.
I could try to stay away,
But you know it don’t work that way.

Just to Say Hello
03:24
|
|||
I got my big city dreams, you got your small town pride,
But at the end of it all we’re gonna share our lives.
The only kind of love that we have ever known
Can weather any storm, so we send it through the phone.
You call me up just to say hello.
There ain’t nothing new and you already know.
You don’t say much but it’s more than enough,
When you call me up just to say hello.
I’m finding myself like I’ve always been told:
Before you walk together, you’ve gotta stand on your own.
We’re putting in the work. It’s putting up a fight.
We keep telling ourselves what we’re doing is right.
You call me up just to say hello.
There ain’t nothing new and you already know.
You don’t say much but it’s more than enough,
When you call me up just to say hello.
I could have stayed.
I would have for you, but you’d never ask me to.
You could have come.
You would have for me, but this way we don’t have to choose,
Between my big city dreams, and your small town pride,
And at the end of it all we gonna share our lives.
You call me up just to say hello.
There ain’t nothing new and you already know.
You don’t say much but it’s more than enough,
When you call me up just to say hello.
You don’t say much but you’re sending all your love,
When you call me up just to say hello.

I’d swear there’s sugar in the air tonight,
The moon is full and all the stars are bright.
But if everything were perfect you’d be by my side,
And so I paint you here with my mind.
Kaydence don’t you know
How I’ve been missing you,
Missing you.
Kaydence please forgive me,
I’ve become a gypsy,
Passing through.
The world flies by, the city moves so fast.
There’s so much that I’m missing, so much I can’t get back,
Like the time I spent away from you chasing all my dreams,
When they’ve always been right in front of me.
Kaydence don’t you know
How I’ve been missing you,
Missing you.
Kaydence please forgive me,
I’ve become a gypsy,
Just passing through.
I see my coat, I see the door,
The car keys that I’m reaching for.
I know the way, I know your street,
A while ago it was home to me.
Kaydence don’t you know
How I’ve been missing you,
Missing you.
Kaydence please forgive me,
I’ve become a gypsy,
Passing through.
I'd swear there's sugar in the air tonight.

Yours
03:57

Footsteps coming back to bed,
Two lips pressed against my head,
Arms around me keep me safe and warm.
Almost like they were yours.
Tangled hair and wrinkled sheets,
A kiss good morning, half asleep,
Clothes are lying lonely on the floor.
Almost like they were yours.
Back when we could outrun time,
Love was free and love was blind.
Bravery was all you needed to get by,
When I was yours and you were mine.
Fingers reaching for my hand,
Promises and long-term plans,
Feels a little like it did before.
Almost like they were yours.
Back when we could outrun time,
Love was free and love was blind.
Bravery was all you needed to get by,
When I was yours and you were mine.
Sometimes I wonder if you ever think of me
In the moments just before you wake or as you fall asleep.
Even though I’m far away and loving someone new,
There are days I think about the ones I spent with you.
Back when you were by my side,
With nothing else to make us feel alive.
Bravery was all you needed to get by,
And we sure got by.
Back when we could outrun time,
Love was free and love was blind.
Bravery was all you needed to get by,
When I was yours and you were mine.
When I was yours and you were mine.
