On moonlit nights in autumn
The falling leaves, they dance
dance, dance.
Waltzing from top to bottom
Intertwining, realigning,
Stirring memories of an old romance.
On restless nights in autumn
As the sound of rain drums through my ears
I cannot sleep
Been counting sheep
Over and over but still
my thoughts turn back through the years
Remember, you said
"Some day"
But some day never comes.
I'm turning inside out I can't stop thinking, talking, pacing round and round imprinting shallow footprints on the lining of my floor.
I'm turning inside out I can't stop thinking, talking, pacing round.
And round.
And round.
And round.
That's how it works, you make me lose my mind, I cannot sleep but give it time and I'll be back up on my feet and smiling once again.

"Son, you should follow the beaten trail"
But what you call lost might be a better start to my own tale.
There has to be a better way
"This is the way it's always been", they'll say.
"Don't listen, it was
just a dream
just a dream."
"Son, you should follow my own path"
But someone elses footsteps, they never seem to last.
There has got to be a better way
"This is the way it's always been", they'll say.
But don't listen,
it was not a dream
it was not just a dream.

The middle months tend to make me lose my mind
When my thoughts are grey and the sky is so blue.
So passes another day
Of being stuck inside the groove.
When morning comes, and I can't get out of bed
I think, again and again
That we all try to hold on as life flies to and fro
But we all just need to let go.
Pour out my soul
Through these six strings
Just let it flow
Until my body grows it's wings.
Because we all feel like this sometimes, sometimes.
When morning comes, and I can't get out of bed
I think, again and again
That we all try to hold on as life flies to and fro
But we all just need to let go.

Morning
04:49
|

|
Words sometimes seem useless
When you're trying to speak free
chords and melodies
are the most sincere that one can be
Laying there awake at night
Wishing upon a star
Not all these dreams will come true
That's just the way are.
It's worst of all When you realize
That you really were in love.
And those lazy sunday mornings
Are what you're always thinking of.
When memory doesn't fail
And you're falling down
the slippery path of "past"
It's not always what you want
That sticks around
And always seems to last

Neverending
02:43
|

|
Hush, be still
When it seems the stars are falling
Though it feels like so long ago
That you heard them calling:
Love takes hold of shattered heart to mend
the troubles of a world that never ends.
In this sea of life and dreams
We can't be so blind to the grander scheme
Love takes hold of shattered heart to mend
the troubles of a world that never ends.

Reminisce

At the first sign of light
when the sunrise breaks the clouds
and when the weather is just right
And the smell of winter is all around
I can't help but think of you.
I always think of you.
I wonder if you could tell
If words weren't sung as well
Which songs were written
While you were on my mind.
The roads from home
Remind me of times
That were the best i'd ever known
Between you and I.
