When I See Your Face

Slept in too late
Woke up to your face on my pillow
Everything I said I’d do today
Guess it’s gonna have to wait until tomorrow

The sun is peaking in
Wondering if we’re ever coming out again
But I’d be just fine staying in with you here by my side

When I see your face I wanna put you in a Polaroid, hang it on my wall and never let you get away boy
Oh what you do to me
When I see your face, wanna waste away the afternoon
Hide beneath the covers till I cover every inch of you
Oh what you do to me, some say it’s crazy but I say it’s love

I was never like this
I used to rise in shine in the morning
Before you came along my life was stiff and boring
Now I’ll never be the same

Chorus

Oh I used think love was dangerous
When you tempted me with your sweet kiss thought I was going down
But you lift me up, everyday you pick me
Seems I just can’t get enough… I’ll never walk away

Chorus


Rush
Don't stop
I like where this is going
You've got a way of coming over me like a rain in June

Tongue-tied
your body warm to the touch
you’re terrified
well that makes two of us now
just the two of us now

Have you have you ever felt so alive as I feel with you tonight?
so deep in your arms
Have you ever felt a love so real that through your veins you can almost feel
a rush of blood to your heart?

With one kiss you cover ever inch of my skin in pure bliss
Oh and the sound of you aching for more
So hold me.
Steady as you unfold me
And unleash a desire that will never die

Chorus

Bridge:
the bare moon shining through the window
our shadows dancing on the wall
your pulse racing like the thunder as we surrender to it all

Chorus


Go On

Go on and cross me off your things to do
Go on and bleach me like a stain to be removed
Go on and toss me with jeans you outgrew
Go on and do what you please
Go on, you lost your chance with me

Go on and pitch me if you're out of my league
Go on forgive me for not fallin’ to my knees
Go on and trick a fool to follow your lead
Go on and do what you please
Go on, you lost your chance with me

Had I known it from the start
I would’ve never let you in
You had trouble in your step
You had venom in your grin
Had I known it from the start
Wouldn’t let you through that door
'Cause you tempted and tried me and thought I’d be beggin’ for more
No, go on

Go on seduce all of your lady friends
Go on until they see there’s no light at the end
Go on and reel them in, to throw them back again
Go on and leave me be
Go on, you lost your chance with me

Go on and dust me off your shoulder now
Go on and praise yourself for turning me down
Go on and give yourself one more round
Go on and do what you please
Go on, you lost your chance with me

B section repeats


Almost Over You

I found a man who kisses like midnight moonshine
And a stampede of stars fills the air
I get dizzy when he smiles, I could stare at him forever
My heart flies through the roof
I’m almost over you

I found a man who treats me like a wildflower in full bloom
Takes me dancing all night in the summer rain
We sing the world to sleep, like two birds on a high wire
Gotta say I love the view
Almost over you

You and I, we had our run
Now he’s healing years of damage done
And he’s everything you could never be
Oh and I sincerely hope you find someone
And she’s everything you could ever want
Cuz baby, all we have is history

(Key change)
I found a man who flies my heart like a kite
And I never, ever wanna come back down
So we stay up too late talking and laughing
No, he’ll never be like you
But my heart flies through the roof
Gotta say I love the view
Almost over you


Goin’ Where Leavin’ Takes Me

I’ve been hanging around too long
Knee deep in your debris
There’s no calm after this storm
So I’m going where leavin’ takes me
Said I’m going where leavin’ takes me

You gone and stung me where it hurts
I’ve tried every remedy
There’s only one thing left to do
So I’m going where leavin’ takes me
Said I’m going where leavin’ takes me

I will run and never turn around
I will sing my desperate prayer out loud
I’m freedom bound
Lord knows I’m never turning around
I’m setting me free

For every dream you tried to wreck
I hope your raging knuckles bleed
I’m healing over now
I’m going where leavin’ takes me
Said I’m going where leavin’ takes me

I will run and never turn around
I will sing my desperate prayer out loud
I’m freedom bound
Lord knows I’m never turning around
I’m setting me free

Said I’m going, I’m going
I’m going where leaving takes me


Overdue

It’s been a year and a day
Since I fired the engine and sped away
Past the weeping willow where we carved our names
Past the open field where summer nights would fade into morning

I was so naïve
How could you I ever let you go
So carelessly
Running from the only truth I’ve ever known
Well, I once was green now I’m blue
‘Cause a love like yours is overdue

Through the fall and the spring
I yearned to feel something
Sleepless nights in strangers’ arms
Getting so close but my heart was so far away

Chorus repeats

‘Cause a love like yours
plays over and over in my head
like a melody I can’t forget
Over and over and over and over again

Chorus repeats


Lonely

First there was him, then there was me
Then there was like which turned into love
There were up and then there were downs and he was gone

But then he came back
And said “I know, you were right and I was wrong”
And he charmed me with his smile
And I forgave him

Oh I should know better
Oh but he can be so sweet
Oh I only love him ‘cause I’m lonely

Last night he went out
I stayed in
I had tea
While he had gin
He kissed another girl and said he liked it

Well I was mad and threw my phone
And I can’t sleep when I’m alone
So the only thing to do is sing about it

Chorus

Do, do, do, do’s…

Chorus

First there was him
Then there was me
Then there was like
Which turned into love


What Livin’s For

When I left Sunday night
Something fell into place
I might be losing love
But I’m gaining grace

You hope I’m miserable
You want to drag me down
Let me just break it to you
I ain’t never lived like I live now

I dance with my shoes off and I’m always up for good conversation even with the strangers at my door
I jump on my bed, I laugh til I cry and I don’t have regrets anymore
That’s what living’s for

You’ve got your mama on your side
But she don’t know half the truth
Well, does she hold you while you cry?
Does she tuck you in at night?
And does she hope I’m miserable too?

Well if you get where you’re going
Don’t take the memory of me
‘Cause I don’t want to be the dirt beneath your fingernails
Ain’t it time you wash me clean?

Chorus repeats 2x


Somewhere in the Middle

You say Pluto’s not a planet
And tomatoes are a fruit
I don’t feel like fighting you tonight

You go that way, I’ll go my way
And I’ll see you in the morning light

I hear violins when you hear fiddles
Lately, you can’t see my point of view
However far you stray, wont you meet me in the middle?
Somewhere in the middle is where I’d like to be with you

You want to move out in the country
I love the hustle of the city
And neither one of us wants to compromise

But if you go that way and I go my way
I’m afraid I wont see you in awhile

Chorus

Bridge:
How quickly I could lose you to the great divide
‘Cause I can’t reach you when you’re standing on the other side
But I’ll meet you halfway if that’s what it takes

Chorus


Ain’t Too Good to be True

No you ain’t too good to be true
No you ain’t too good to be true

No dancing in the moonlight
No sweet champagne in the warm summer rain
Don’t need no luxury when it’s you and me

No house on the beach
No private jet, no red sunset
Just the simple things and you and me

All my friends found real good men
I hear they’re just too good to be true
But they’re buying love, simplifying love with cars and clothes and booze
No that ain’t you, no you ain’t too good to be true

You’re no movie star and you’ve never been rich
But we’ll pretend you are ‘cause love is all you’ll ever need
When it’s you and me

Chorus

Bridge:
Now I’m not saying that I’m opposed to luxury now and then
But if you want to candy-coat me, spoil me in real love baby
You know I love you just the way you are

Solo

Oh all those dames found guys they tamed
I hear they’re just too good to be true
But they’re buying love, simplifying love with cars and clothes and booze
No that ain’t you, no you ain’t too good to be true

no you ain’t too good to be true 2x

Thank God I found you… because you ain’t too good to be true


Queen

Someday I’ll be queen
And watch the children flood the streets
From my window
And I’ll sip on raspberry tea
As I search for the faces
Of the smiles in my dreams

Someday when I’m queen
I’ll wear jewels in my hair
And red wine on my lips
The king will call me beautiful
Say I look like a painting
Framed in gold

And he’ll twirl me around
While the horses run wild
And the moon will lay us down
On velvet sheets
When I’m the queen

Someday when I’m queen
I will travel the world
I’ll taste the gardens of France
And when I miss my throne
The trumpets will sound
And the king will welcome me home

Chorus

Annabelle

Annabelle constantly reinvents herself
Cutting her hair with the kitchen scissors
Laughing in the mirror ‘cause it never turned out right
Oh Annabelle

Annabelle has secrets she will never tell
Places she’s been that she’d rather not recall
People she’s known that she never really knew at all
Oh Annabelle

Every time she tries to change
I always see her just the same
The people change in her photographs
And as time will pass, the good times wax and wane
But I always see her just the same

Annabelle like a pony on a carousel
Spinning, circling, always up and down
But in the end she’s right where she is now
Oh Annabelle
Every time you try to change
I always see you just the same
The people change in your photographs
And as time will pass, the good times wax and wane
But I always see you just the same

Oh Anna, Anna, Annabelle
In the end you’re right where you are now
