Meant For More

you and i begin
where caution meets the wind
and our past lives end
and as our paths converge
we'll find it so absurd
that we didn't start here first
'cause we were meant for more than this...
when the spotlight fades
on his grand charade
and you make your escape
you will find me here
patient and sincere
without an ounce of fear
'cause we were meant for more than this...
tell me where it hurts, and i'll fix it for you
'cause nothing could be worse than thinking this can't come true

On Your Side
04:35

something's got me thinking about that night
and the way your face looked, bathed in that dim light
girl, it's only wrong if you regret it
but i just can't move on, i can't forget it
something's got me thinking about that night
something just won't keep you off my mind
and the way we found ourselves across that line
the very thing in me that can't believe it
only justifies chasing this feeling
something just won't keep you off my mind
if you feel so inclined...
then say you're ready, and that nothing's gonna change your mind
there ain't no use in waiting, something beautiful is on the rise
nothing's ever won without a fight, and i am on your side
something's got you running for your life
in hotel rooms, and places we could hide
girl, it doesn't matter what they're thinking
they don't understand it ain't a game we're playing
something's got you running for your life
but i would be damned if i...
didn't say i'm ready, and that nothing's gonna change my mind
there ain't no use in waiting, something beautiful is on the rise
nothing's ever won without a fight, and i am on your side
maybe we could be an island, surrounded by an endless sea
a million miles of open water, where it's only ever you and me
you don't have to swim across yet, darling
all you've gotta do is just believe...

Georgia Sunset
05:08

|

it's been forty nights since i've looked at you
messages and photographs won't do
souvenirs of love in the form of key cards to hotel rooms
are dealt just like a hand to fold, or see the river through
i'd bet i miss you more
i couldn't miss you any more
than i do right now, sleepless on the floor
i can't bear another georgia sunset
knowing that my love waits in tennessee
i don't know how high my hopes can get
before they slip away from me
out adrift in a golden sea
all of sixteen ounces deep
every night i dash myself across the rocks of your belief
that the life i've dreamed for us will never come to be
so don't make me miss you anymore
i can't miss you any more
that i do right now, and will forevermore
i'm not one to wait for settled dust
when i know that there's a place right here for us

I Want You Back
03:46
|
|
||
draw in a breath for a final plea
that's what these words i sing to you aspire to be
the very last drop in a well of ink
a love letter written from a ship that's sure to sink
i want you back...
i know that i've lost the right
but i swear to god i won't sleep 'til you tell me you're home tonight
and i can't believe that i sought reprieve
here in the space between what i want, and what i think you need
i want you back
i want you to come back to me
where you belong
here in my arms tonight
maybe somewhere down the line
you'll be easier to find
maybe somewhere down the road
you'll be my girl, and i'll call you "home"...

Secrets In The Dark
04:00

hey; i don't want you to go
but i don't really know how to make this right
so say what you need to say
and if you want to end this thing, then i'll leave tonight
and i'll remember who you are
and i'll remember wishing on every star
and i'll remember what it's like to touch your heart
telling secrets in the dark
i hope that there will come a day
when we see this thing in a different light
if you ever want me again
i promise i will not break through the fence we mend, until then...
will you remember who we are?
will you remember holding hands in your car?
will you remember what it's like to melt my heart
telling secrets in the dark?
hey; i don't want you to go
but i don't really know how to make this right
you can say what you need to say
but i don't wanna end this thing; no, not tonight
'cause i remember who we are
and i remember wishing on every clock, and every star
and i will never forget what it's like to break your heart
telling secrets in the dark
