Little Town

I’m going home where I’m meant to be
Where the air is clear and my lungs can breath
I’m going home, shut the gate behind me
I’m going home to stars in the sky
Friendly neighbors, community tight
I’m going home, everything feels just right
The sun comes up
And the sun goes down
And the moon shines bright over Little Town
I’m going home, leave the past behind
I searched so hard, little did I find
I’m going home, forever, for all time
Chorus
I’m going home, been away too long
Been chasing something but that’s long gone
I’m going home t’where my heart, my soul belongs
The sun comes up
And the sun goes down
The sun comes up
And the sun goes down
And the moon shines bright over Little Town
Little Town

Green Light

You got old all of a sudden
Living large in the past
You're exactly like your old man was
Who know that youth would never last?
It’s hard to plan beyond tomorrow
When did the days speed up so fast?
You can’t keep up with the world anymore
Who knew that youth would never last?
Don’t wait for the green light
Don’t wait and see
Run towards the sunlight
Run home to me
You had your chance and you missed it
Too busy living every day
Running around like you ain’t gonna die
The best plans unravel anyway
Don’t wait for the green light
Don’t wait and see
Run towards the sunlight
Run home to me
Open doors close eventually
Don’t wait for the green light
Don’t wait and see
Run towards the sunlight
Run home to me

I Was Wrong
03:33
|

It was my way or the highway. Your opinion mattered slightly. And you exist for me.
As I held on to you tightly. Carried on, high almighty. Please come on back to me.
I was wrong. I was useless I couldn’t see, 6 feet clear in front of me. I couldn’t even hold the door.
Little things that couldn’t wait, but for you I’d hesitate. Blurring the dream. I was wrong.
Let me make it up to you, one day at a time, those shallow words I’ve spoken, they’re not mine, anymore.
You should just go, I’ve been unfair, go on, go, escape now, be free. How much more could you really take?
You didn’t fall, you didn’t break. Scared to death to leave. I’ll make it up to you, they say. The words mean nothing, they fall away. Like a cliff into the sea. I was wrong.

This Time Around

I don’t know how we got here
Or the day of the week
The only thing that I’m certain about
Is that we need to leave
Point us in the right direction
Where to from here?
Point us in the right direction
Please
We need you this time around
It’s just water under bridges
We can swim our way out
We can make it to the other side
Unless of course we drown
Point us in the right direction
Where to from here?
Point us in the right direction
Please
We need you this time around
Wishful thinking
Through joyful tears
A hopeful grin from ear to ear
That feeling, euphoric
Seems so far out of reach
It’s been staring us right in the face
But that’s something they just don’t teach
Point us in the right direction
Where to from here?
Point us in the right direction
Please
We need you this time around

Echo

You know somebody who
Knows somebody who
Pushes hard against the flow
You know somebody who
Knows somebody who
Lacks a clear direction home
When the troubled water’s deep
Tilt your head back and don’t let go
Hold your breath, hold on to me
You’re not alone
I think I hear an echo in here
The world is tiny, no point in hiding, behind the fables in your head
Like a rabbit, frightened
Your shivers, heightened
Soon given up for dead
Chorus
Boiling in the water
But it’s freezing
A bolt of lightening
Nothing but poor timing
Grey skies, blue day
If you told me Friday
We’d be gone by Sunday
Leaves Saturday in the way
Chorus
