One More Phone Call
Maybe I’m gone, maybe I’m still here
Deep down, I know it’s all my own fear
Tied up twisted in someone else’s mess
Babe I miss you, and that’s not a guess
Somehow, I found that I loved those eyes
And the feeling of falling in and out again
So, take me to your mystery, and gaze along
For tonight I’m all done
So you can see...
That it’s one more phone call I don’t have to make
And it’s one more long night I don’t have to stay up late
And I know your just running feel like you can’t go on
And it’s one more phone call I just can’t make
It’s all okay moving on day to day
Sometimes it’s all a blank stare to me
And I know the sun makes a friend with the moon in his heart
But the road most traveled is not far away
Questions I wonder if they’ll ever be in sight
For every night seemed like a familiar fight
Strung out of sorrow, greed, and wealth
And you can judge a book by the holes in the page
And still he just won’t see….
That it’s one more phone call I don’t have to make
And it’s one more long night I don’t have to stay up late
And I know your just running feel like you can’t go on
And it’s one more phone call I just can’t make
----------
So Should You
Late nights, come home, I believed it
Just like I used to do
Magnetized by your sleeping eyes
Covered you up head to toe
Sometimes she wakes up and I don’t know what to do
I’ll pour some wine for just us two
And I’ll be caught in a gaze stricken by your lyin’ eyes
And I know that I can’t do this again
I used to think you were everything,
I even said I loved you
And my eyes can’t much more breaks,
I’m moving on and so should you
Time and time again she begs me to stay or leave
But every time I say no
Running out of ways to show I don’t need you,
Running out of ways to show I care
I used to think you were everything,
I even said I loved you
And my eyes can’t much more breaks,
I’m moving on and so should you
I used to think you were everything,
I even said I loved you.
And my eyes can’t much more breaks,
I’m moving on and so should you
And my eyes can’t take much more breaks,
I’m moving on and so should you.

Wanderer
Say my name like you’ve done before
Messed up love but it’s not for sure
And I know I’ll be there with you.
Sold my wine and drank my whisky clean
I’ve been lost don’t know where I’ve been
And I know he was there with me.
But what do I do when you say I love you?
And what do I do when you say you’re sorry?
So, take your note, write it all down
Don’t show me, Imma to leave this town
And I’ll no longer be with you.
On the road just thinking back
All the times that we used to laugh
And it’s just a love song to me.
But what do I do when you say I love you?
And what do I do when you say you’re sorry?
And how do I tell him that I don’t need him?
And what do I do when he says I love you?
Met a guy about a week ago
Stranded here in Colorado
And I know he’ll be with me.
Take a day and just throw it away
Cup of coffee makes everything okay
And I’ll keep holding on.
I’ll keep holding on
----------
Grow Older
Cigarettes on Tuesday morning
Man, I’m just so lonely
And tonight’s another day, I’ve just wasted away
Night is black as the coffee he’s drinking
And I just feel like singing
But the songs I once know just don’t sound the same.
So, pick out a seat and hold me closer,
For love only gets bolder.
And tell me something I don’t know yet,
While your arms are wrapped around my shoulder
For some day, oh one day we’re going to grow older.
Now the moon don’t show no sorrow
I can live out your tomorrows
I found someone as I wait for fall to come
Rum and coke is what I’m sipping
As the stories they don’t seem to end
And all the pretty thoughts leave my head
So, pick out a seat and hold me closer,
For love only gets bolder.
And tell me something I don’t know yet,
While your arms are wrapped around my shoulder
For some day, oh one day we’re going to grow older.
And I’ve missed a million stories
From a million different words.
And I’ve held a rope in my hands
Just to see when it will end.
No more cigarettes today
Head feels like it’s run away
For some story that was never was old
So, pick out a seat and hold me closer,
For love only gets bolder.
And tell me something I don’t know yet,
While your arms are wrapped around my shoulder
For some day, oh one day we’re going to grow older.

Break Me Down
Call me a sinner, I got not shame
Tell me I’m broken, and I’ll do the same
Something is keeping you up late at night
I don’t think waiting is doing us right
Break me down
Tell me you need me, and I’ll be around
Your feelings ain’t real but they’re hard to be found
So, break me down
Never felt angrier down to the bone
Even together, I feel alone
I don’t need to carry your burden inside
Knowing I’m broken and knowing I lied
Break me down
Tell me you need me, and I’ll be around
Your feelings ain’t real but they’re hard to be found
So, break me down
Break me
Fake me
Take me
Make me
Shake me
Ache me
On and then maybe.
Break me down
Have Our Day
I saw you walking my way
Didn’t know where
Didn’t know when
I saw you coming around
Without a sound
Didn't know when.
Believe me this old town
Dragging me down
Oh, dragging me down
In my head I wasn't there
Helpless and scared like a fool to be saved
And you said
Oh, Anna don’t you go running down that old dirt road
Oh, Anna don’t you say you’ll do it another way
Cause’ momma don’t know, and daddy don’t dance we’re all just in this trance
Waiting on another day
Waiting to have our way
Let’s go now to where we are found,
No time to spare you say,
No to time to spare.
In your head, I wasn’t there
Helpless and scared like a fool to be saved
And you said:
Oh, Anna don’t you go running down that old dirt road
Oh, Anna don’t you say you’ll do it another way
Cause’ momma don’t know, and daddy don’t dance we’re all just in this trance
Waiting on another day
Waiting to have our way
Oh, that’s just the way it is, time keeps leaving us
No one can do it for you if we all keep moving on
Oh, Anna don’t you go running down that old dirt road
Oh, Anna don’t you say you’ll do it another way
Cause’ momma don’t know, and daddy don’t dance we’re all just in this trance
Waiting on another day
Waiting to have our way
Oh, Anna don’t you go running down that old dirt road
Oh, Anna don’t you say you’ll do it another way
Cause’ momma don’t know, and daddy don’t dance we’re all just in this trance
Waiting on another day
Waiting to have our way

A Sober Thought
And I’m sick of all this shit
All these red flags I’ve missed
You’ve taken enough from me
And I’m sick of all this shit
Maybe I can’t fix it on my own
Maybe he was just too young to know
Can’t see what the devils wearing
Till’ he’s sleeping in your bed
You had this magnetic pull
Took too long to let it go
But with every compromise
I leave myself behind
Oh, I leave myself behind.
I remember that time waiting all night
I remember it was early may
I remember my thoughts when you were drunk
Oh, they really never go away
And I’m sick of all this shit.
All these red flags I’ve missed.
You’ve taken enough from me.
And I’m sick of all this shit.
Never wrote a song for you
Drunk and twisted words I choose
You think it’s all about you
But I never wrote a song for you
You hated all my friends
Never let me be with them
But with every compromise
I leave myself behind
Oh, I leave myself behind.
I remember that time waiting all night
I remember it was early may
I remember my thoughts when you were drunk
Oh, they really never go away
And I’m sick of all this shit.
All these red flags I’ve missed.
You’ve taken enough from me.
And I’m sick of all this shit.
And I’m sick of all this shit.
All these red flags I’ve missed.
You’ve taken enough from me.
And I’m sick of all this shit.

Just Another Love Song
You hide behind your humor
I hide behind my eyes
Hoping she don't feel what I've found
I sold my vanity
For a few hundred stories
Ones where you were alright
And I’ve got this disease
That you can't see
Made me blind and let me be
I was just a little girl
You were just a little boy
Growing in some unfamiliar bones
And I've been so far gone
I don't feel it every coming back again
And I wanted you a little more
But tears don't feel so real without the pain
And all you can say
Is this just another love song it seems?
But she's holding on to life
And I'm holding on to her
I just want to let it go
Why am I so conceded?
Think my problem are unique
We’ll both love and love again
You never knew the truth
That I wrote these songs for you
And I guess you never will
He promised me the world
A plane ticket for a girl
But I swore I would never go
And I've been so far gone
I don't feel it every coming back again
And I wanted you a little more
But tears don't feel so real without the pain
And all you can say
Is this just another love song it seems?
Just another love song it seems

Leaving Ohio
He used to say I love you
He did that not to try
I used to wear his sweatshirts
And look into his eyes
He used to say those three words
That meant so much to me
He used to be my lovely
Man, I’m blind but I can see
I used to see our life
From the birds and the bees
He used to call me everything
From seas to ocean breeze
I used to be the girl
That never was afraid
We had it all together
Oh, we’ll never turn the page
Maybe I’ve been going so long
I can’t even find my feet
Somehow in this crazy world
My head still keeps a beat
I love to sit and watch while
These people pass on through
Maybe baby one day
I’ll make it back to you
So, I stand
Heart torn open.
In this place
And it don't ask my name.
So far gone
I'm left broken.
So, I sing an old song
and get back to life
Now I’ve left Ohio
Seems smaller once you leave
Sending hollow picture
Just hopping that you see
Still got those sweatshirts
And you still got me key
He used to say I love you
Oh, I miss the company
Maybe I’ve been going so long
I can’t even find my feet
Somehow in this crazy world
My head still keeps a beat
It helps to stop and think about
Long days spent with you
Maybe baby one day
I’ll fell something new
So, I stand
Heart torn open.
In this place
And it don't ask my name.
So far gone
I'm left broken.
So, I sing an old song
and get back to life

How's The Story Told
We were young by the river
Never wanting to grow old
So, the story was told
Barefoot intuition,
Two kids looking for a home
So, the story is told
Young and restless I remember
Never knowing where my time will go
So I take it slow
Fishing, sitting, waiting, wishing
for the time to pass, but we don’t know
So, we take it slow
You won’t let me go away
I can’t wait another day for you
And I stay waiting in this place
And all my memories fade…
Someday I’ll be running
So wild and so free
Wont you run with me
Now were older, richer, wiser
But are we happier these days?
It isn’t safe to say.
You won’t let me go away
I can’t wait another day for you
And I stay waiting in this place
And all my memories fade…
You won’t let me go away
I can’t wait another day
And all I stay in this place
And all my memories fade…

Monday's Song
He told me to start over.
Reflection of last year but were a little bit older.
And I don’t know where I’m heading too,
Surely one day life will come without you
I’ve been running.
Oh, running for the city.
These voices chasing me,
Nothings pretty.
And I don’t know where I’m heading too.
And you don’t care where I’ve been.
Let me take it slow.
This can’t last all day.
Lost my mind in Georgia
Got a ticket for San Francisco
Thought I make it home by Monday
But Monday’s been gone in this California days
He called me for the first-time last week.
Whisky in his veins making my knees go weak.
And I, don’t know where I’m heading too,
And you’re the only one who knows where I’ve been.
Let me take it slow
This can’t last all day
Lost my mind in Georgia
Got a ticket for San Francisco
Thought I make it home by Monday
But Monday’s been gone in this California days
Lost my mind in Georgia
Got a ticket for San Francisco
Thought I make it home by Monday
But Monday’s been gone in this California days.
Lost my mind in Georgia
Got a ticket for San Francisco
Thought I make it home by Monday
But Monday’s been gone in this California days.

Grab Your Coat
Grab your coat and grab your smokes,
Darling were running wild
Tell your brother tell you mother,
That I’m out of this town
Today’s been a hell and a half
And tomorrow will be worse
Hoping for a change and only pulling dirt
Keep me lonely keep me safe,
It’s time we made a change
Oklahoma come my way,
I got a lot of things to say
Today’s been a hell and a half
And tomorrow will be worse
Ill grab your coat you’ll light my smoke and well get out
Oh, I’m tire of marveling,
At other people’s dreams
Keep your head low,
Shield your backbone,
Don’t let them see you fears.
Today’s been a hell and a half,
And tomorrow will be worse
You leave me lonely,
Oh man I’ve been lonely…
Today’s been a hell and a half
And tomorrow will be worse
I’ll grab your coat you’ll light my smokes and well get out
