let me take a look at you now

Years go by and we're changing,
Hey, is it still yourself who you're fighting?
My friend, let me tell you,
you feel way more than you should be feeling.
Do you believe me when i say,
I didn't think we would ever forget
I always thought that you would stay,
i thought good friends were here to stay,
We've been smoking our nights away...
We've been smoking our memories away...
Let me take a look at you now,
Do i still know your favorite song
The way your mood swings when i come along,
And the smile you'd give me when you'd call me so young,
These saturday nights on the phone,
Here's to me crying and all alone,
Let me thank you, thank you for all these nights carrying me home,
Carrying me all the way home.
I wish i never gave you away,
Do you believe me when i say,
I didn't think we would ever forget
I always thought that you would stay.

Everytime you called me so young, it's been so long,
it's been so long, since you've called me so young

only you know

Stay quiet ,
Can you hear the sound of the joy you'll never find again,
Walking by yourself in the street where you used to live just like a lonely dance,
Only you know,
Only you know.
You're just as young as you were yesterday,
Only you know it will never be the same,
There's no way you'll reinvent the games you used to play
So you walk to another summer night,
You walk away.
Keep the peace you used to feel,
When it was all about your innocence,
It leaves you with the taste of a first kiss you barely remember,
But only you know
We both thought we felt love just like grown up people
So you walk to another summer night,
you walk away...
We were living in a world of streets married to trees,
A world where young lust was the only key,


but only you, you know.

my

my love, my love, my love
you could let me fall,
Patience has never been mine,
Give me one good reason to act just fine,
And my love,
I know you'll never take back,
All the things you taught me
I know i owe you to be just happy
But my love,
I give myself away,
And god you knew i'd never be perfect
You fooled yourself right when we met,
Oh my love,
Recite your lines just once again,
Sing your songs and sing your pain,
You and i just never end

how it goes

Leave it to the ocean to separate us,
Give your heart a chance,
I'm giving you tonight and the ending of a slow dance,
The way my dress wraps around you,
And a few notes that i know you know too.
Tell me more about the dreams you think you'll never reach,
The mistakes you've made when all you ever wanted was a kiss.
And this lives in the back of your mind,
The back of your mind,
For days you think you're gone from everything,
That you're so hard to find.
And this lives in the back of your head,
The back of your head,
You've lost yourself to love,
It's beautiful but it all fades
You wish i'd give it all back to you,
And that i'd fall asleep in your bed.

I'd love to be the one that changes everything
To be sweet, to be close, to be seen,
I think i'll try over and over again
When i lost everything there's not much more to gain
Imagine the most beautiful things
But this can't be out of our favorite book
And this is way harder than i thought,
But i'll take as much as i can get
I'll take the lies, the way you touch me and
the next morning i'll forget all your secrets.

You're the only one i listen to
Just like the songs i get sick of,
You're the only one i hear loud and clear,
Just like the songs i'll always love

Go south

Remember the sand sliding in between my fingers,
and this bitter taste of tears
when i was so ready, so ready to leave
Just like my summer loves,
Enjoy every second and forget the feelings,
Never have memories, remember the smallest things,
Keep blurry pictures and forget faces you've seen...
This place is a dream, you used to say
This place is dying, but let me stay...
And for some reason it was always the same time,
it was always right in between day time and night,
For some reason i would end up standing here,
wanting more than what i came here with

It's a slow pain,
and when it comes it stays too long,
Too long to keep you sane,
and i wish i could take you back,
hold you in my arms so you could be the same
You know it even sounds different,
sounds different when i say your name

can we lay here for another hour-
i lose and i love
i fall and i fight,
so let's..
let's stay home tonight
