The Only One 04:49
Come and sit beside me when the day is done Cause I’m not the only one who needs good love We’ll lace our fingers like a spider’s web With no traces of start and end it’s just two of us And we’ll sing a song out for those broken hearts And all those broken parts of your mind And soak up all the warmth left of the sun Cause we’re not the only one’s who need good love I’m not the only one I’m not the only one I’m not the only one Who needs good love We’ll lay underneath the stars like we were young Chasing lips and crossing tongues all night long Cause if I couldn’t have you here and now I’d be a blood thirsty hound running down your door So don’t make me wait against the razor’s edge Or leave me on this ledge just waiting to fly Just sing to me soft and sweet just like we are And we’ll never be very far from good love You sing to me so soft I can hear you breathing You sing to me so soft I can hear you breathing You sing to me so soft I can hear you breathe And I’m not the only one I’m not the only one No I’m not the only one Who needs good love Who needs good love

Every now and again I feel a weakness coming on Every now and again I feel two feet tall Like a new born babe all alone in the night I’ll hold fast to my mother and keep my eyes peeled for light Yes I’m a woman I’ve grown up and out and in Well I’m a woman just trying to love the skin I’m in And just like you I have all the parts to make a whole But I just can’t quite get it together I can’t keep a steady hold Every now and again I do find another piece of my own mind Left on the dark side of the road And if I can get to the other side I might get to see the sun a rise And every now and again I might find Some peace of mind So tell me sister do you feel lost standing still Tell me brother do you feel gone even in the space you fill Cause I’ve been feeling so tired Yea I’ve been feeling so god damn uninspired Every now and again I do find another piece of my own mind Left on the dark side of the road And if I can get to the other side I might get to see the sun a rise And every now and again I might find Some peace of mind Some peace of mind

High and Dry 03:53
Well I would be lying if I told the truth Cause I ain’t got much that’s worth giving to you I spread myself thin hoping you would too And there’s nothing left for me to do You got your reasons and I got this rhyme But both ain’t worth shit if you don’t have a dime So I sing one last song and thank the Lord I’m alive I just thought I’d give it one last try And now I’d better move on I ain’t got much to hold on It seems in the blink of an eye My life had gone by And you left me High and dry Well I’d be kidding you to say I never loved But all I did was kid myself to think it was enough So I take one on the chin and I will look above Cause there’s nothing else that I could of done And now well I better move on I ain’t got much to hold on It seems in the blink of an eye My life had gone by And you, you And now I gotta move on I ain’t got time to hold on It seems in the blink of an eye My life had gone by And you left me high and dry

Under every smile and behind each blink I took some time so I could stop and think Why are you so sad You’re the best I’ve ever had Kicking dirt from underneath our feet Walking hand in hand down a lonely street You still feel bad You’re the best I’ve ever had And I don’t know why you feel so bad I want to spend my life just holding your hand I don’t know why you feel so sad Cause you’re the best that I’ve ever had I don’t know what it is that I’m doing wrong Have you been falling out of love all along I just can’t tell I thought I knew you well But don’t know why you feel so bad I want to spend my life just holding your hand I don’t know why you feel so sad Cause you’re the best that I’ve ever had I don’t know why you feel so bad I want to spend my life just holding your hand I don’t know why you feel so sad Cause you’re the best that I’ve ever had That I’ve ever had That I’ve ever had

Mama, I’ll listen, when I hear you call, It still comforts me. To know that you’re near, your voice I can hear, I know you’re there. Irene always said, look above for help, But to you for love. There’s something inside me that always reminds me What you’re thinking of, What you’re thinking of. You’re picture’s on the wall, you’re picture’s on the wall. To remind me of it all. Don’t forget me, Don’t forget me. Run for your dreams, Just don’t you ever forget who you are. Rest assured my little one, You’ll never outgrow your mother’s arms. Deep down you know, while you lie still at night, You’re not alone. This doors been left open, And that light will keep shining ‘til you come home, ‘Til you come home. You’re picture’s on the wall, you’re picture’s on the wall. To remind me of it all. My how you have grown, my how you have grown. Don’t forget me, Don’t forget me. Oh now child, sweet love of mine, How I’ve missed you.
