Every time I see your face
I still ask why
It doesn't give me peace of mind
Don't recall what I thought I saw
Behind those eyes
Were they part of your disguise?
Yet here we are again
Trying to just stay friends
We don't have to pretend
But I miss it now and then
And every time I hear your name
It gives me hives
Just a new surprise
Feeling reckless with my tongue
From all the wine
Did I miss a sign?
Yet here we are again
Trying to just stay friends
We don't have to pretend
But I miss it now and then
Now and then I see your face
I have to sigh
We left a lot of words outside
And there's nothing worthy
Out there left to find
Maybe I'm out of time
Yet here we are again
Trying to just stay friends
We don't have to pretend
But I miss it now and then
Now and then
Now and then

We were so innocent
The years rolled up so slow
And we were confident
The flood pockmarked that road
I don't regret it often
That's all I'll say tonight
Wouldn't wanna get it right
Don't be so obstinate
Advice just falls like snow
But we were diffident
With every line we sold
I don't regret it often
That's all I'll say tonight
Wouldn't wanna get it right
And I'm sure you're well intentioned
And I know
The offer stands but I don't wanna tell you no
Does it go beyond rejection
Or am I too dumb to say
That I'm searching for affection
Along the way
And I'm sure you're well intentioned
And I know
The offer stands but I don't wanna tell you no
Does it go beyond rejection
Or am I too dumb to say
That I'm searching for perfection
Along the way
Along the way
Yeah, what you say
Don’t delay
Another day
Along the way
Wouldn’t wanna get it right

Not much left in the reservoir
We scraped bottom when we jumped in
Only memories are down there
Holding court among their very next of kin
What can we do to walk it back?
Why do we still pretend?
Was it so long ago?
Is it too late to start
Start again?
One look was all it took
To make me fall back down
It's a burden to pretend
Every time you come around
Guess we'll have that summer
With the water still so clear
I only wish I had the strength to walk right out of here
You swam slow in the reservoir
Too close to drowning from dive to dive
Is our closure still down there
With the sediment that's still alive
What can we do to walk it back?
Why do we still pretend?
Was it so long ago?
Is it too late to start
Start again?
One look was all it took
To make me close my eyes
It's so heavy keeping time
That you don't recognize
Guess we'll have that summer
With the water oh so clear
Only wish I had the strength
To walk right outta here
To walk right outta here
With the water oh so clear
Will you remember me?
Or how it used to be?

Dream to Dare

You know I try to stay a step ahead of you
But from experience I know that's pretty hard to do
You walk in circles
I think in squares
Maybe with a better angle
I will dream to dare
To take it farther
It's so much harder when you say
Raise your armor
And I cannot take it away
We'll go farther
I'll give my heart for something great
I say today's the day
But you walk the other way
You know I try to stay a step ahead of you
But from experience I know that's pretty hard to do
You walk in circles
I think in squares
Maybe with a better angle
I will dream to dare
To take it farther
It's so much harder when you say
Raise your armor
And I cannot take it away
We'll go farther
I'll give my heart for something great
I say today's the day
But you walk the other way

Waiting
On a sunday afternoon
Lately
That feels alright with you
Every dream, every plan
And every ill-thought scam
I’m here at your command
So please
Stay with me ‘til dawn
The shelter in your eyes keeps me so strong
With the breeze
And the storms that carry on
You’re the anchor I’ve been searching for so long
So don’t
Go away
Cuz I need
You to stay
Maybe
You feel the same as me
Lately
That’s all I really need
Every thought, every word
Every line we’ve left unblurred
Maybe love is just absurd
So please
Stay with me ‘til dawn
The shelter in your eyes keeps me so strong
With the breeze
And the storms that carry on
You’re the anchor I’ve been searching for so long
So don’t
Go away
Cuz I need
You to stay
If I had the words to say
I’d color in your shades of gray
And If I had the words to say
I’d color in your shades of gray
So please
Stay with me ‘til dawn
The shelter in your eyes keeps me so strong
With the breeze
And the storms that carry on
You’re the anchor I’ve been searching for so long
