[Intro] One, two, three [Verse 1] I found boxes of first CDs tryin' to get my office clean Took ten years of folks givin' them to me 'til I sat down And I saw hesitant poses and torn up jeans In cover photos friends took for free For the six minute son...

One more skyline that I’ve seen for the first time, so far from home Right where I’m supposed to be, though you’re not next to me, I hope it won’t be too long Late night streetwalker, roaming the road at a quarter to four Early morning riser, making his wa...

[Verse 1] You won't believe it, strange as it sounds Extraordinary magic follows you around And the camera can't catch it, you won't see it in the mirror If I say look behind you, you turn around, it disappears [Chorus] But I see it, I see it I swear I...

I, I thought I was fine Until you walked by, I thought I was fine You, that is quite a word. Cause you are not just some girl You is quite a word. Oh-oo falling in love is something Oo-oo-ooh falling in love is nothing. We, we were young and dumb We w...

To a boy who looks just like his mother, who's a sister to her brother who sings this song with that boy from far away I am young but you are younger so you speak more words then mumble. You have to lend an ear to everything i say. So be kind and love your...

I got a mind full of questions that just won't let me be. I am weary from the restless heart inside of me. I never cared about believing until I see I've lost my way and then my troubles all around me, and all that I can say see me through another da...

There`s no need to complicate it, dress it up or overstate it. Without too much hesitation, here`s the way I fell: I like you. I like you. Even when I don`t try to. Yes, I do. That`s the truth. I like you. Seven years is a long, long while. Som...
