Ease My Mind

Black heart, red eyes
I'm a Friday with no weekend
These days I stand just to fall back down
This dark, it spreads
Through my mind quicker than whiskey
There seems to be now stopping it now
There ain't nothing that can ease my mind
But you
Black dress, green eyes
Happiness left my life with you
I heard you left town; swore I saw you last night
There ain't nothing that can ease my mind
But you
Oh
It never seemed so
Hard
'Til you went away
I found out too late
There ain't nothing that can ease my mind
But you

See Straight

You will ride shotgun on the ride in
You will push your hair out of your face
You will bring me news of all our old friends
You and I will stay
You and I will stay
Until we can't see straight
You and I will stay
Yeah I think the last time that I saw you
Everything was different but the same
We both have birds perched on our arms
You are my brother despite your name
And you and I will stay
Until we can't see straight
You and I will stay
I know I said the nature of this is
That we all change
But the face that you see before you
Has seen so many horrible things
But you and I will stay
Until we can't see straight
You and I will stay
Yeah you and I will stay
Until we can't see straight
You and I will stay

Think I'll Fall In Love
03:17

For all the time it took me to
Learn from my mistakes with you
What can I say?
I've made a few
And since I pushed you far away
Whiskey drinks and beer for days
What can I say?
I've had a few
But when she first walked in
I was stunned
Hair on fire; eyes burning like the sun
Waiting for the band to play
If she even looks my way
I think I'll fall in love tonight
I think I'll fall in love
She hit me like a downbound train
The jukebox plays it as she sways
And I could only think one thing
For all the years I spent alone
For all the girls that come and go
There seem to be some
I don't know
'Cause when she first walked in
I was stunned
Hair on fire; eyes burning like the sun
Waiting for the band to play
If she even looks my way
I think I'll fall in love tonight
I think I'll fall in love
Of all the towns
And all the bars
City bus lines
Railway cars
Of all the girls
In Tennessee
This one's got a
Hold on me
But I ain't going
Down without a fight
I think I'll fall in love tonight

Man In The Frame
04:18
|

|
Think I'll head out west toward San Fernando
Last thing I heard they'd found them some gold
These Atlantic nights they get so cold
I need to get moving on
You followed me out from Ohio
You said that you could not stand the snow
I was happier than I knew to show
So I kept it to myself
I just wanna be a man in the frame
No I don't care if they remember my name
I just wanna be a moment in time
When I was yours and you were mine
You stood on a hill high above us
Just you and that camera and a mountain of dust
I turned back to the river with a hope and some trust
That your lens was aimed my way
I just wanna be a man in the frame
No I don't care if they remember my name
I just wanna be a moment in time
When I was yours and you were mine

Those sundresses and halters
The summer's muggy midnights
Those southern days that had no end
Then Sundays at the altar
Waitin' to be forgiven
The choir sings of everlasting arms
Oh the way you show your love
Go ahead and give me some
Diggin' in when push meets shove
Show 'em where we're coming from
Magnolias with pink skylines
Far from the city headlights
A boy's mind was free to roam
So young and never knowing
Then and forever we would
Spend our whole lives trying to run away
Oh the way you show your love
Go ahead and give me some
Diggin' in when push meets shove
Show 'em where we're coming from

Pick up the phone as long as I'm not calling
Take down all the pictures in the frames
To live without you is a life turned lonely
And there's never enough people to blame
Take the time to have a conversation
Pick out all the words you wanna hear
Then maybe we can just agree to disagree
'Cause no one wants to live their lives in fear
When it's over, yeah it's over
Whether I get wings or flames
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah all the same
All I really wanted was to hold you
And tell you I always loved you more than me
Now it's time to settle down and take a needed rest
And that I'll see you around eventually
When it's over, yeah it's over
Whether I get wings or flames
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah all the same

Lost Without You
04:33
|
|||
|
It seems the heat is never working in this house
The cold gets in; there is no way to keep it out
All the nights seem to be an endless dark
Of thoughts and doubts and ways to weigh down my heart
There was a time when you were my everything
All I really needed was to hear you breathe
Now I see your face inside of everything
In my dreams you're near but still out of reach
Will there be a time when I will not be lost without you?
Lately I've been taking up talking to myself again
All I needed now are dimmer lights and darker nights
To keep you in my head
Will there be a time when I will not be lost without you?
