Don't Forget

Time is of the essence
That’s a lesson I have learned before
And here I go again
I see I’m walking down the same road
And it looks like it is coming to an end
Oh how I tried to take a different path
But still it always seems to end the same
Out in the rain
But don’t you forget
Those words we said
Gaze at passing strangers hoping
I will catch a glimpse of you I know it sounds so wrong
But now I’m stumbling over everything, hoping to find you before you’re gone
Now I’m repeating every word you spoke
Hoping to make sense of it all
I feel so small
Now I’m chasing shadows down the longest road that I have ever seen
And I don’t know
What’s waited for me on the end, is it a lost dream or just a ghost
Oh and I know it’s taken far too long
To tell you things you should’ve always known
But honey don’t
And now I’m writing things I should’ve said before
Dear I just owe so much more

A Restless Call
03:06

Not a day goes by
When I don’t ask why
When I don’t ask why I can’t get your voice out the back of my head
I try but still it’s calling me oh I
Just don’t know what to do
Won’t give up on you
Won’t give up on you
Won’t give up on you
Staring at the letter that I wrote
Got every word stuck in my throat
Oh, time don’t heal a thing
It only dulls the sting
It’s a restless call
Tears through my walls
Now I fear that all that I ever see of you
is a dream that keeps me sleeping late
When I awake
I try not to forget
I won’t quit yet
No I won’t quit yet
No I won’t quit yet
Now the night air weeps
Over every street
But the moon it greets my face with light
and I don’t know how,
but still, it’s different now
And we are too
But we can make it through
Just means we grew
Just means we grew
Sure, we’re both fucked up
but who’s to say
We’re not better off that way
Yeah, and people change
But love still feels the same

Never Know
02:42
|

Take a look and you will see
Me and you and you and me
Another life another try
Tell ya, love will pass you by
Never never know
What’s good is bad, what’s up is down
Now that I’m all turned around
Take your time you’ll get there soon
Yes, and I’ll take mine if you’ll come too
So take a look and you will see
I’m not you, and you’re not me
But that don’t mean it wasn’t right
Ah, some day dear, if not tonight

Skeleton Key
03:59
|

The record spins, the music plays
The shadows dance in a cigarette haze
Her fire roars inside my head
I've heard it once, let's hear it again
Jesus Iscariot plays cards at dawn
Can never tell which side he is on
Our eyes collide cross the tabletop
He'll never know how much I've lost
The angel whispers in to my ear
"What'd you think that you would fine here?"
I grab your hand as the city falls
You turn away I'll turn to salt
Tamara cries as her kingdom dies
Her sons of fortune meet their demise
And Titus sits with his hand in blood
The other's buried 'neath Roman mud
Beneath the sheets where love once laid
Juliet holds a dagger's blade
She falls asleep singing siren's songs
Knew I had to wait, never knew how long
She burns the book as the pages turn
And I just watch but I never learn
'Cause every word that I try to read
Just melts to ink as the paper bleeds
So if you see her tell her I
been chasing rain 'neath a cloudless sky
So she can find me on the shore of the sea
Digging for a skeleton key

I'll See You Again
03:58
|
|||
Go take a mountaintop
Put in your dreams
‘Cause I’m climbing every stone
All the way to you from me
And don’t you try to sympathize
‘Cause I know every word behind those eyes
And don’t you try to say it right
No, I’ll be walking with the moon tonight
What am I to do
If I just can’t stop loving you
Don’t know what to say
If I did maybe things would go a different way
But I know, yeah I know, and I know, yeah I know
But I know
That I’ll see you again
Go take a shooting star
Put it in your sky
‘Cause I’ve wished on every one
And dear, I’m running out of tries
Talk about love like it’s just a game
But winners, losers, it’s all the same
Talk about love like you understand
It’s like searching for diamonds in the sand
So I’ll take the bitter taste
Wash it down with wine
Then I’ll fill this empty glass
And try again a second time
You talk about me like I’m just a ghost
Then you raise your glass for one more toast
You talk about me like I’m in the past
So you better just drink it fast

The Wrong Forever
04:06
|
|||
I don’t know what to say
But I’ll try to tell you anyway
My words just fall like shattered glass
Pieces of the past
And now your voice it seems
To be just like a distant dream
I wake up and it’s lost to me
But still your face
I just cannot erase
You said you’re mine to keep
But I heard you talking in your sleep
You’re on a one way road to the wrong forever
A today just like tomorrow
Guess I sold my soul
For a girl
Can’t just sing la da da da
I don’t know what you want
But I gave you everything I got
I tried so hard to get to you
I don’t know what to do
And now I finally see
That in this bed of memories
Is just another piece of me
That I have lost
I guess I’ve paid the cost
You know I’m there for you
But it’s not enough to get you through
You tried to run away to the wrong forever
But you’re still stuck in today
I never knew what to say
But you know I loved you anyway
And time only moves fast
When you’re running from the past

All I've Got Is Time
05:09
|

Oh, I wish I could stay
Love, and someday I may
But not now
There’s just no way out
And honey, I’m so sorry, but please don’t wait
But if you do
I’ll come back to you
All I’ve got is time
Though doors often close
That’s just life, I suppose
I don’t know
That’s just what I’m told
But I can climb in through the window, if I’m locked out
So I will try
To reverse this goodbye
All I’ve got is time
Though memories they fade
There’s not one I would trade
No regrets
No, I can’t forget
And though I must be going, I’ll never leave
No, I’ll be here
Though I may not be near
All I’ve got is time
When the rain turns to snow
And the frozen wind blows
You’ll find me
‘Neath a bare oak tree
But as sure as it will die it will bloom once more
And I’ll make things right
If it takes all my life
All I’ve got is time
So I wish I could stay
Love, and someday I may
But not now
There’s just no way out
And honey, I’m so sorry, but please don’t wait
But if you do
I’ll come back to you
All I’ve got is time
