Oh, it’s lovely to meet you Right on the corner of my stoop The wind races with autumn’s scent Mixed with your perfume I’m worked to the bone I’m losing on my own reality show The string of lights around the tapestry Illuminates our wildest dreams Why don’t you come on over Come on over to me? We'll ride down the city streets Forget to sleep Staying up past three See, the birds outside my window They fly anywhere they want to Wake up before the alarm Together, we are warmer than the sun Three words are hanging on my lips I can't promise this so soon The string of lights around the tapestry Illuminates our wildest dreams Why don’t you come on over Come on over to me? We'll ride down the city streets Forget to sleep Staying up past three See, the birds outside my window They fly anywhere they want to Fly anywhere they want to Why don't you come on over Come on over to me? Leave the flowers at my window And we'll fly anywhere we want to

I Don't Know 03:53
I don't know much about the winter I'm from a place far away I know you wished it was closer Well, better have it your way I don't know if I'll ever stay I'm from a place quite far from here Connected through a computer Like systems set on overdrive These days get muddled if I don't write to remind And oh I'm still trying to find Oh it's pounding in my head This battle to stay ahead Why don't you help me out instead? Sometimes I wish you away From my cloud where it doesn't rain What you want is more that I can give to you anyway You ain't got to be afraid Your life's already made Oh it's pounding in my head This battle to stay ahead Why don't you help me out instead? Why won't you help me out instead? Wind me up, now put me down and watch me go Around in circles spinning everything that I don't know We are all the same You ain't got to be afraid Your life's already made Oh it's pounding in my head This battle to stay ahead Why don't you help me out instead? Why won't you help me out instead?

Right By You 03:45
I've been counting the days on the vine I just sway through the breeze Now I do what I like when I like but it don't seem to please So I save my favors For all the people that I never made time for Every promise that I never saw through Try, gonna try, gonna try to do right by you Got a world on your mind, then again so do I It's a draw If I say I don't see what you see it don't change what you saw So I save my favors For a rainy day For a rainy day For all the people that I never made time for Every promise that I never saw through Try, gonna try, gonna try to do right by you So I save my favors For a rainy day For a rainy day For all the people that I never made time for Every promise that I never saw through Try, gonna try, gonna try to do right Try, gonna try, gonna try Try, gonna try, gonna try to do right by you

Ocean 05:10
You’re the ocean I love the most I dwell on land and I live by your coast Pick up the shells that you wash to shore Take them home and listen to them all You're the ocean I love the most Rolling waves and crashing locks of foam I cannot float in your waters For I am made of a heart too heavy Throwing all these stones I watch them settle down Gives and takes my breath It makes no sound You’re the ocean I love the most Chasing storms and rocking all the boats Running wild until you find peace As lazy as a sunny island You’re the ocean I love the most Falling tides I’m tracing with my toes Drawing lines across the sand that keep safe From the pull that could wash me away Throwing all these stones I watch them settle down Gives and takes my breath It makes no-- Throwing all these stones I watch them settle down Gives and takes my breath It makes no sound
