Never Prayed

You said 'fair well old friend'
'Our season has come to an end'
So your conscience has left
And all your lies are at an end

You were always my star
I always knew you'd go far
You'll stand in the flame
Just to make a name

Your limit has always been the celing
You buy another round
Lonely but for this feeling
I can hang around
For you I'll hang around

Would the clock on the wall
Tick the time before we fall
And fall I'll do
If only for you

Given the chance to run
It has left me spun
So I'll drive around in this car
And be reminded of what I need you for

This desaster
Is it what I am after
Oh I need you to
Remind myself
That its my fault
Its not all my fault
I can't hear your pain
I will pause no more
I've never paid before
I've never prayed before

You wish for more than feeling
You buy another round
Lonely but for this feeling
I can hang around
For you I'll hang aroud

My Baby

Oh yes
Some days it can be so easy
There are moments
When I forget
How much I want your touch again

I never wanted to play this game
Where if I lose some I become lonesome
My Dad once said
Boy when if you find a good one
Don't let her get away

Yes
If only I had listened
I would have you
Exactly how I want you
I thought I'd have you back again

I played it all so cool
God I acted a fool
Acting like I never had
Nothing much to lose
But I know you
And you sure know me
I knew you could see
I am begging you please
Help my find my way back to you

Now I'm driving past your basement window
Where you used to let the candles glow
Feels so long ago
But you still live in my memory

Remember when I asked you
If you would be my one true?
I'll never forget what you say
Just like it was yesterday

I played it all so cool
God I acted a fool
Acting like I never had
Nothing much to lose
But I know you
And you sure know me
I knew you could see
I am begging you please
Help my find my way back to you

I want to you feel me too
So please love
Just take me back
Please
My baby

Oh if only I could have you
If only I could feel you
Just the way I want to
To once again let the world know
Its always just been me and you

I played it all so cool
God I acted a fool
Acting like I never had
Nothing much to lose
But I know you
And you sure know me
I knew you could see
I am begging you please
Help my find my way back to you
My baby

What You Bring

Its ok
All I want is to talk
But if we try this
We must keep our heads up

The words we say
And all we do
We must never give in
We must never give up

And with what we feel
Between you and I
My feet fly high
I'll never touch ground

Like a dizzy ride
We will scream
But never feel the need
To yell 'let me out now'

You know that feeling
Like being in too deep?
Alone I cannot make it out
But with you
You bring such sweet relief
And peace

Your voice rings my head
It rings so loud
I feel so old to ever want to be younger now
But you have the power to change such things
Please turn it all around
Don't let me go
I don't want you to let go now

My love move your dancing feet
Let all eyes stare now
Let them drink us deep
With all their jealousy
You bring such sweet relief
And peace

Be with me my dear
Be with me till I'm gone
These things we keep
Let us never let on

If you could
I know we should
Never let this
Turn around

You know that feeling
Like being in too deep?
Alone I cannot make it out
But with you
You bring such sweet relief
And peace

Whenever I Go Home

There is only one reason I  do this
I subjugate myself to this form of torture
I can never forget
How I have always felt for her

Never have I met
Never will I forget
Someone with such blue eyes
And with each of her words
She formed magic
Such a sweet surprise

It may be gone now
It may be let go
I hang forever on
I beg God for her to know
Just how I feel

Are you happy?
Are you safe?
I would meet you wherever
At any time
At any place

You know the power you have
The ease of you will
It caries over me
I will do whatever you need
However you feel

If I had you again
Like I did that summer night
The little stone cabin
I would make you feel like home
Like everything will be alright

I know now
I acted a fool
Afraid of pain
Keeping truth from you
Like trying to keep the trees safe from the rain

I will never expect forgiveness
Nor will I ever beg for it
Just please, my love
Don't hate me
Don't ever let my actions
Define what we have
This sweet flower
Lets protect it
That's all I ask

13 hours south of me
In the same State
This native soil
Where you 'live'
Such precious fruit spoils

I'm sure he's great
I'm sure he's wonderful
I think you're happy...
Just know I look for you
Whenever I go home

All We Do

Its not some silly little moment
Its not your name drawn on the bathroom wall
Its the time to put it all to the test
This love that we've been feeding from

I can't seem to be there like I want to
So I can feel you holding on
Betting on a false Savior
That's only been leading me on

Everyone in this town
Can see it with me and you
Everyone in this town
Knows what we do
We live in the moment just for me and you

I always knew what I was made of
Yet I ran when you called
So how can you say you were nothing to me
Loving you was my only unforgivable flaw

I make what I can of all this madness
This 'faking love' I cannot stand
You'll try to hit me, to hurt me
Leave me feeling empty
Because you can't understand

Everyone in this town
Can see it with me and you
Everyone in this town
They know what we do
All we do is live for me and you

Don't lie about it
I know that you do
You bury how you feel about me
I know that you do
My dear
All I do is live for me and you
