You and Me

Its only now that I believe in my songwriting ability
I spent so much time thinking that I wasn't good enough
But now that I truely see that it comes down to you and me
establishing some form of communication
It ain't easy to just sing about these things
That's just why I do it thats the challenge all truth brings
I just wanna pack up my car quit my job and drive real far
But you can only run away for so long
I finally believe that I just need to trust what I see
Follow my heart given the situation
I feel that I was older, but I've grown much younger
My childhood wonder is what fuels this hunger

This time of year

I'll see you later in the fall time
When summer ends and school begins
I'll still be here when you are there
I really used to hate this time of year
Then winter comes and we're shovelling snow
There's no reward...there is nowhere to go
I'll stay at home and spend some time with my family
It's the only place where people understand me
The day is coming soon for me to make my own
I'll take your love and build myself a home
And I don't care about the world out there
I'm comfortable here...I have no fear

This song
02:09
|
|||
Early in the morning when I'm feeling all alone
I pick up my six string and I play this song
It keeps me going on, It keeps me strong
It keeps my mind focussed on what I needed all along
Don't need to be famous, Don't need to be see
Don't need to stop dreaming...when your living the dream
Just wanna be good, wanna do things right
I'm a lover inside, but I'll put up this fight

Rise to my feet
02:22
|

Early in the morning I rise to my feet
Load boxes down at the docks for dirt cheap
Is this all I got...lord knows I hope not.
Somedays I wanna quit this job, but I know I won't
My conscious is always telling me you need money so please don't
The day will come when I won't work no more and that'll be the day
I'll get to quit my good old day job and use my time to create
I can see the silver lining...it's shining in my eyes
Keep up the struggle and you'll get your prize

Where to begin
02:02
|
|||
I don't know where to begin
How to explain the state I'm in
Learn to adapt and you will survive
Learn to love and you'll stay alive
Learn to accept what you can't change
Go find a goal keep it close in range
Now and again I wanna take it easy and coast
But its the struggle thats worth the most
Maybe you and I we're meant to be
No pedestal be who you'll be
It's those times when I'm all alone
That I need your soul I feel it to the bone

Time will tell
02:22
|

You think I don't know where you've been
I've known all along
I don't play games...I don't need to win
I just want to write some songs
This one right here is from the heart
...where I feel I've been wronged
I need to trust myself more, thats what my life experiences were for
I am the person that I want to be, I've rid myself of this disease to please
I've been playing at this since I was four and you can't tell me anything anymore
I would never steal your girlfriend...that's something that a desperate person would do
I'll bide my time and sit on my hands and time will tell whether you'll make it through
Thought it was heaven, but it felt like hell
...the best revenge is simply to live well.

I don't know what you want
I don't know what you need
