Let’s be honest, baby
I’m no black and white
Back and forth with maybe’s
Feet get cold as ice
We’ve been drifting, shifting, shaky from the start
Now I’m in it to win it, ain’t ever gonna stop
Let’s be honest, baby
Know that i’m never gonna let you go
I’m Committed
Can’t turn back around and let you go
I’ve been there before
I admit it
There’s nothing in the world that I want more
I’m Committed (can’t turn back around)
Every chance I’m taking
There’s no turning back
Break my heart wide open
What’s left to protect?
I’ve been drifting, shifting, shaky from the start
Now I’m in it to win it, ain’t ever gonna stop
Let’s be honest, baby
Know that I’m never gonna let you go
You know you want it when you can’t take no
There’s no escaping when you’re walking down that road
No easy exit for ya, no where to go
Cuz you’re locked in, sticking, never gonna let you go
-
What’s wrong with me?
Acting like an addict-
She’s no good for me
Feeling like I’m chasing what will never be-
And I never ever never never ever never learn
And honestly
She’s the air I’m breathing, need her desperately
The reason why I’m livin, but she’s killin me
And I never ever never never ever never learn.
She’s Smoke
You can’t get enough, you want more
Feeling like you never did before
So beautiful, ’til she vanishes
Smoke
I’m a casualty, slave to all my senses
When she calls to me, dropping all defenses
Comes and goes as she pleases,
Ain’t no rhyme or reason
Smoke
You can’t get enough, you want more
Feeling like you never did before
So beautiful, ‘til she vanishes
Smoke
Draws you to the fire, so bold
Dancing through the air like an angel, graceful
But you know you’ll never hold her
She’s smoke
Brother, don’t you know
Sister’s got control
That’s the way it goes
Sister’s got control
-
I know I barely know ya
But this is feeling good
Not gonna overthink it
Just like I normally would
No sense in tryin’ to hide it
Your smile, it says it loud
We know where this is going
What’s left to figure out?
Ohh
I sing ya like my favorite song
You and me we’ve got it made
Ohh
How could feeling good be wrong?
Something tells me now
It’s alright, it’s ok
If we just keep it sweet like lemonade
You’re so fine, all day
Baby, I’m sweet on you like lemonade
Let’s not get complicated
Don’t gotta cause a scene
When I’m with you it’s easy
Wouldn’t wanna change anything
When I got your attention
I get this de ja vu
It’s like we’ve always been
Heading where we’re going to
S-W-E-E-T (S-Double U-Double E- to a T)
-
If you got plans, I wanna break ‘em
Ain’t nothing so important you can’t change
Show me the place, and girl I’ll take ya
I’ll follow your heart beat to set the pace
Let’s get this going
So high we’re floating
All I’m feeling, all I know is
Every minute wanna getcha, getcha closer
Soak up every second trying to get to know ya
Lets just take our time
We can’t hit rewind
World’s spinning, don’t miss another moment
Every kiss on your lips has got me hoping
We just take our time
Slow Motion
Every breath feels like forever
Every touch is playing on repeat
No such thing as now or never
Me and the moon got nowhere to be
Everything around keeps on moving so fast
I’m just trying to make this last
-
Babe, ya came out of nowhere
Now you’re all I wanna do
I was fine flying solo
Now I can’t stop thinkin’ bout you
Sun-shining in the morning
Midnight you’re the moon
You’re the tide in the ocean
Pulling me right into you
Even though I barely know your name
I’ve memorized every inch of your face
Now my heart will never beat the same
Tell me where you came from
There used to be an empty space
But everything is falling right in place
I know you’re feelin’ it too
Unexpected love
Can’t believe it’s true
Spent my whole world waitin’
Baby whatya doing to me?
Unexpected Love
Coming into view
Didn’t need no invitation
Baby can’t you hear me singin’?
You know I’ve never been lucky
I don’t believe in chance
Somebody’s smiling on us
Blame it all on providence
Never need to know another name
Or memorize any other face
Our hearts, they beat the same.
Tell me where you came from.
Whatcha doin, baby never stop
Yeah, I just wanna show you off
Tell the world how i feel
Out of nowhere girl
Yeah, you caught my eye
You were lookin’ good, you were outta sight
So I said hello
Yeah, and you hi
My knees went weak and my tongue was tied
You’re my favorite song
You’re my sickest beat
You’re my days ahead
You’re my history
We don’t gotta try
What we got’s perfected
The best kind of love is unexpected
-
First you notice
Then you ask her name
Then you get her number
Call her up the next day
You start to wonder if she feels the same
Second guessing every word you say
Not even rolling but you hit the brakes
Why do my beginnings always end this way?
Making easy things hard
Why’m I always making easy things hard?
Ain’t complicated when you follow your heart
Why’m I always making easy things hard?
Do you think about her
When she’s not around?
Are you better with her
Than you are without?
Is it too soon to want to say those words?
Is it deep enough to go head first?
Afraid to go so far you can’t reverse
Should I take a chance and see if this thing works?
Nobody knows
How these things have to go
You’ll know when you know
Until then, let it go
-
I used to run around
Overdrawing all my bank accounts
Buying flowers trying to figure out
Was it love? Did i mean it?
But it didn’t help
Yeah, I was all about the chase
But they always seemed to run away
Until I met the one who stopped my tracks
There was no looking back at anybody else
Cuz you know when you know
You get that feeling
When you hold her close
Just like you’re dreaming
It feels like home
You know when you know
And you just can’t wait
You get excited
Just to see her face
And be beside her every single day
You know when you know
You’ll know it when the fire burns
Inside your heart it kinda feels good
And all the sudden, yeah youre stoppin traffic,
Ditchin bad habits- she’s your medicine
-
You’re the kind of girl who’s smiling,
Hiding what’s really going on
So afraid that if I found out,
Count to 5 and then I’d be gone
But that ain’t how I do
Girl, my aim is true
When you lose your way
I will rescue you
I know monsters come
Imaginations run
But i’m standing by
For your affection
You and I are a restless mind and a patient heart
Think you’re fooling anybody
Pretending to be someone else?
That I can’t see you in the dark
Playing with fire, trying to find yourself?
I just wish you knew
That i’ve been there too
When I lost my way
I got carried through
I know monsters come
Imaginations run
Girl, i’m standing by
For your affection
You and I are a restless mind and a patient heart
When you fall this hard, yeah it’s gonna hurt
But i’d go that far cuz our love is worth the scars
With a restless mind and a patient heart
-
We got these unlit feelings
Burning bright as brilliance deep inside
It’s been a long time coming
Like we’ve both been running trying to hide
Its so scary to be known
But I don't want to be alone
Let’s come together, let the stars align
Only been one thing that I’ve been wanting
You and I, this is our night
We fit together like the stars align
Only been one thing that I’ve been wanting
You and I, this is our night, this is our night
When I finally pull you in
It’s like a place we’ve always been, all this time
And then you whisper back to me
All the things I’ve always seen in your eyes
Its so scary to be known
But I don't want to be alone
Tides are turning in
Sun is growing thin
Nothing could take this moment from us
It’s how it all begins
Sweet surrendering to the night
-
So, I thought I knew you but I guess I don’t
All this time, in love with my imagination
I get scared and try and change you, but you won’t, no you won't
Every day I try to keep myself from crying
If you love someone and you let them go
But they run away, shoulda let them know
Cuz I loved someone, but I let them go, tried to find my way
Help me cuz my
My grip is slipping, I’m losing faith
Could You hold on to me, hold on to me
So scared I’m bout to lose everything
Could You hold on to me, hold on to me
Leaving the black and white
Am I gonna make it out alright?
I wanna know You won’t leave me behind
My grip is slipping, I’m losing faith
Would you hold on to me, hold on to me
Oh, I guess that’s what I get for asking why
Sometimes I wish I could go back to dumb and happy
If the truth is so much better than a lie, tell me why
Everyday I have to keep myself from crying
Help me, cuz I loved someone
-
Been digging through my head
Playing with the pieces
Wanna let ya see what hides behind my eyes
You been scratching at the surface
So if I seem a little nervous
It’s cuz I never let no one inside
No walls ‘tween the two of us
This love’s getting dangerous
If I gave you all of me
Let you in to every little place
Show ya things nobody’s seen
Would you look back, would you walk away?
If I told you I’m afraid
Of all the ways I’m not OK
Would you love me anyway
If I never seem to change?
They say love’s what you make it
But I always tried to fake it
Trying to be somebody’s perfect locked me up inside
It’s the honest revealing
Of all the scars the and the healing
I gotta put on the line
-
Every now and then I wonder
If I ever knew your colors
Tell me who are you
Tell me who I knew
Is it worth it, should I bother?
Tryin to add up all the numbers?
No matter what I do
I’ll never solve you
You’d only wanna kiss in the middle of a fight
I’d try to let go, you would hold me tight
Felt like forever we were out of time
We’d go on and on and on
Wrong and Right
Black and White
That’s how I remember you
That’s how I remember you
Low and High
Day and Night
That’s how I remember you
That’s how I remember you
I keep digging through the rubble
Will I ever solve the puzzle?
It’s always incomplete
You can't love what you can’t see
We gave each other something that we never gave no one
It only made us feel lonely until we’d had enough
No, I don’t blame you, for the what we came to
Everything and nothing, yeah that’s how I’ll remember you
