I'll Be Your Pride

I roll the window down
And then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home

Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
To tell the difference between shooting stars and satellites
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home

"do they collide?"
I ask and you smile
With my feet on the dash
The world doesn't matter

When you feel embarrassed then I'll be your pride
When you need directions then I'll be the guide
For all time

A Reason to Stay

Oh when i see you
I really see you upside down
But my brain, it knows better
It picks you up and turns you around
Turns you around

If you feel discouraged
If there's a lack of color here
Please don't worry lover
It's really bursting at the seems
Absorbing every beam
The spectrum's a thru z

This is fact not fiction
For the first time in years
And all the girls in every girlie magazine
Can't make me feel any less alone
I'm reaching for the phone

To call to say its me and on your machine
I slur a plea for you to come home
But i know it's too late
I should have given you a reason to stay
Given you a reason to stay

This is fact not fiction
For the first time in years
