Sandy blankets side by side
Day-dreaming that she could be your bride
Wine is flowing
The famed arches were much smaller
Than imagined but the photographers
Were out
And women arched on ocean stones
And she walked alone
You saw her with another man
You weren’t prepared for it even though
There were no promises
But it really hurt to witness it
Wishes
Throwing loose change in a fountain
The water is so clear
Feeling no clarity
With so many other wishes here
Maybe you’ll just fly away
Maybe you’ll grow wings and fly away
You said – Let the ocean put an end to it
Could every moment be long awaited
Even your whistling as the plane ascends
You think – and you wonder where you lost your sense
You’ve got to begin, begin, begin, begin again
(Again Again)
Throwing loose change in a fountain
The water is so clear
Feeling no clarity
With so many other wishes here
Wishing here
You can see the reflections in the fountain
The water is so clear
Feeling no clarity
With so many other wishes here
Wishing here
You're wishing here
She's wishing here

Down

I went down
To the place where I saw you
Down, To the place where I heard you
Down, And I wanted to know if you’re down
To stay in for the evening
I heard sound
I was wrapped in a voice
I heard sound
The vibrations were all of your sound
And I wanted to know your sound
When you’re whispering to me
Do you wanna come over to my house
To slow down, chill out, do nothing but hang out
Now would be the time to let your guard down
We could just be close
We could just be close
I wanna just be close
We could just stay clothed
If we wanna
I am found
When you say my name, I am
Found, When I make you laugh, I am
Found, When you ask me what I’m doing now
I say I wanna get down
Don’t stay awake
Don’t stay awake
Stay here and take
All the time you need
All the time you need
I got all the time you need
Do you wanna come over to my house
To slow down, chill out, do nothing but make out
Now would be the time to let your guard down
We could just be close
We could just be close
I wanna just be close
We could just stay clothed
If you wanna

If I

If I turned you upside down
Would all your heavy come tumbling out
If I spun you round and round
Would all the rain, fall from the clouds
Your story’s a secret, and my story is dead
Everything has happened and everything’s not yet
Let’s just say what floats through our he-e-eads
When I’m with you, there’s no story like the present
If you end up lost at sea
How will you float, what would you set free
If I flew you to the moon
Is there anything you’d hold onto
And would it weigh you back down to ground
Weigh you all the way down
Would it weigh you back down to ground
Weigh you all the way down
Shadows they will fall in line
If we don’t just stop to cry
Shadows they will lie inside
But you are the brightest light
Your story’s a secret, and my story is dead
Everything that’s happened, I’d like to soon forget
I’m just saying what floats through my he-e-ead
Cause when I’m with you
There’s no story like the present
There’s no story like the present
When I’m with you

What can I give you if it’s not my blood
I can give you sweat and nights that are long
And what do I owe for the gift of enough
I’ll give you my deepest fears and all my love
I don’t know why I’m here and neither do you
Without a blinking sign we’ve gotta push through
I can’t teach you about life but I can make a sound
Help you feel something you’ve been trying to push down
I’m giving up maybes
You get my babies
Giving up maybes
You get my babies
Where do you go when you’re seeking a face
To call your own there isn’t a place
Except going inside for the thing that you make
Your truth your home your fate
Your truth your home your fate
I’m giving up maybes
You get my babies
Giving up maybes
You get my babies

Don't Stop

Curious about the touch of her love
Curious where is her heart?
All tied up, where is she now?
Cautious, oh-oh-oh, do you have any doubts?
She falls asleep, she dreams awake
She writes her letters to her pillowcase
Feeling like she made a mistake
She wonders how to feel okay
Don’t stop now, Put the fire out
But I’m leaving now While you scream and shout
Carve me up, You will see my bones
They will feel the air, I will feel at home
Desirous, a stroke of luck
Flirtatious, she saw that look
Censorious, measure yourself
But courteous, oh-oh-oh-oh your friends can tell
She’s no, stranger to hope
She wonders what she should’ve wrote
Was there something in the tone
Wishing for a voice on the telephone
Don’t stop now, Put the fire out
But I’m leaving now While you scream and shout
Carve me up, You will see my bones
They will feel the air, I will feel at home
