Lyrics

Red Sea Sky

Living on the sand for a while
Taking everything that we could
I could be somebody you want
Take a chance

Emptiness is part of the wind
Heat rises up from the ground
We can be whatever we want
If we want

Under the red sea sky I thought about everything we've done.
Follow the dark of night you'll find the way to get back to the sun
Under the sinai moon you say the names of people that you’ve loved
Follow the dark of night you'll find the way to get back what you've lost

Color in a colorless land
Mountains are fading away
Faces come out of the stone
Of the stone

Staring at the sea, it’s alive
Drinking tea in the afternoon sun
We can be wherever we want
Sometimes

Under the red sea sky I thought about everything we've done.
Follow the dark of night you'll find the way to get back to the sun
Under the sinai moon you say the names of people that you’ve loved
Follow the dark of night you'll find the way to get back what you've lost

 

The City We Live

You run. You Fall.
You’re chasing the wind. Your horses are strong, but they never win.
You laugh. You smile.
Something is missing. Your web is wide, but nothing is sticking.

The city we live is where love goes to die
The people we meet, all say goodbye
But if you ask them to stay, they will find a way
to a place that one day we'll call home

It's lonely sometimes in the dead of night
The streetlights flicker inside my mind
All I wanna be is a little bit closer
when we get together we’re so much stronger

You sing your songs,
but no-ones listening. you draw your guns, when no one’s shooting
You spend it all
You’re saving nothing. 
You want everything, but no one’s giving

The city we live is where love goes to die
The people we meet, all say goodbye.
But if you ask them to stay, they will find a way
to a place that one day we'll call home

When everyone seems so far away
I close my eyes and I see your face
All I wanna be is a little bit closer
when your not around its so much colder

It's lonely sometimes in the dead of night
The streetlights flicker inside my mind
All I wanna be is a little bit closer
when we get together we’re so much stronger

 

Come Home

The lights at the bar turn on to signal she’s leaving
And the late night they crowd all want her to go
She looks at her phone and reads a message from the evening
“Come home”

And you step outside into the world you know its freezing
And you think of how your mother always said “take a coat”
And you wonder if you’ll ever find a reason
To come home

The party’s always better when your with someone you know
Stick with me a while, we’ll tear this town apart.. oh oh oh oh
Together we’ll be partners in a crime
No witness to our love, you and I wanted by everyone

And you wait by the window to hear for when she’s coming
And a taxi pulls up and the door slams shut and its gone
And the boots on the stairs make a sound that’s so familiar
Come home

The party’s always better when your with someone you know
Stick with me a while, we’ll tear this town apart.. oh oh oh oh
Together we’ll be partners in a crime
No witness to our love, you and I wanted by everyone

The lights at the bar turn on to signal she’s leaving
And the late night they crowd all want her to go
She looks at her phone and reads a message from the evening
“Come home”

 

Today

Today, I want to give you all
The time we had apart. Here I am.

Today, I want to touch your soul
I’ll buy you something small, just to show you I care

Today, I’ll cook you something good
We’ll cruise the neighborhood
We’ll watch the kids play in the park

Today, Today, Today, Today

We can do anything you want
Give you pennies for your thoughts, or the wishing well
You can wear your favorite dress
Maybe we can dance, or play your favorite song

Today, Today, Today, Today
I want to give you all the time we had apart
Today today

I’ll give you all you need. You’ll be my everything
Today, Today, Today, Today

I want to touch your soul
Pennies for your thoughts
Wear your favorite dress
Play your favorite song 

 

Perfectly Insane

Is it delicate? can we break this thing we got
are we honest? will the truth tear us apart
is it serious? do we need to tell our friends?
is it  starting or is it coming to an end?

I heard you leaving but I stayed in bed
your perfume lingers and it makes me mad
i wonder if you'll ever understand

everybody wants what we got
but we don’t know if its broken or not
are we perfect? Are we perfectly insane

nobody ever seems to understand
we’re miles apart but we’re holding hands
are we perfect, perfectly insane
perfect, perfectly insane.

are we jealous? do we wish that we would fall?
is it fading, are the colors running out?
is it serious? do we need to tell our friends?
is it  starting or is it coming to an end?

i saw you walking on the street alone
I know its crazy but i let you go
I wonder if you’ll ever know

everybody wants what we got
but we don’t know if its broken or not
are we perfect? Are we perfectly insane

nobody ever seems to understand
we’re miles apart but we’re holding hands
are we perfect, perfectly insane
perfect, perfectly insane.

Take A Plane

Why you wanna give a blame to this distance between us.
Why do you wanna point a finger at someone?

Why we have to make it up and tell our friends stories?
Why we always have to be the one who wins?

Now you wanna take a plane, leave it all behind you.
We always want the other side of what we got.

The other side, a place you wanna go when things aren't working right.
Baby, please stay tonight.

We'll talk it out.
You know that with is always better than without. 

Why you wanna give a name to this feeling between us?
Why do you wanna build it up just to tear it down?

Now you wanna take a plane, leave it all behind you. 
We always want the other side of what we got.

The other side, a place you wanna go when things aren't working right.
Baby, please stay tonight.

We'll talk it out.
You know that with is always better than without. 

 

Suddenly Nothing

We were on the way
Shot out into the night
Leaves falling through limbs
of old memories of you

But what’s been said is gone
All that’s left is stone

We could not live on
They took the land from home
Stars collide with night
Night collides with depth

And suddenly its gone
Back to where it came from
And suddenly there’s you
Standing all alone.

Suddenly it’s nothing
Suddenly it’s nothing

 

Closer Than This 

Why do we do the things we do
Is there destiny in every step

Don’t you cry my child, life will work it out.

They said we could accomplish anything
They said we could be anyone
Don’t you cry my child, life will work it out.
Don’t you cry my child, we can work it out.

I want to be, a little bit closer than this
I want say things on my mind
I want to heal, the wounds of my soul, from so long ago.

They say the world has open hands
She gives she takes in circumstance
I said id give my world to you
What is love if its not true

Don’t you cry my child, life will work it out.
Don’t you cry my child, we can work it out.

I want to be, a little bit closer than this
I want say things on my mind
I want to heal, the wounds of my soul, from so long ago.

 

Once I Was

Once I was a soldier with a gun in a country far from home in the night
Once I was a cowboy on the run
Money for my life dead or alive

Show me the life that’s good
Make it a life worth living
I used to take it all
But now is the time for giving

Once I was a captain lost at sea
My treasures drowning me, like a stone

Once I was a gypsy with a guitar
I never got too far, but I never tried

Show me the life that’s good
Make it a life worth living
I used to take it all
But now is the time for giving

You could say I’ve lived everything before
But I’ve never been to a place like this
You could say I’ve lived a thousand years or more
But I’ve never felt quite like this
