Slip Away
02:12
|

I’m not the type of guy to quit, but sometimes I’d like to
I’d run for the hills
Honest work, simple thrills
Steady wage, hey
Had enough of Hollywood and all the city surrounding
Can I go it alone?
Pull the rug from below
All the way, hey
Time is never going to stop or hesitate
Why are we spending all our money just to sit and wait?
I’m packing my bags, making a play
Oh man what a feeling it could be to slip away
Count down the days and nights till I’m at one with some nature
Instead of dust and decay
Great divide on display
Every day, hey
Time is never going to stop or hesitate
Why are we spending all our money just to sit and wait?
I’m packing my bags, making a play
Oh man what a feeling it could be to slip away
We gave it a go, and we’ve got the debt to show
Time to break out whilst there’s still a little room to grow
Time is never going to stop or hesitate
Why are we spending all our money just to sit and wait?
I’m packing my bags, making a play
Oh man what a feeling it could be to slip away

Talk To You
03:37
|

No I’m not going out tonight
Especially with a heart so heavy
I’m only going to hold them back
Cause every time I’m in a crowd
is when it hurts me that you’re not around
So I’m just going to lay here
And pass the time away
Try to make it hurt a little less each day
No I don’t want to hold you
Or shout about why
I just miss your company by my side
I just want to talk to you
Clothes stacked in a paper bag
There’s nothing like the end of an era
No chance of ever turning back
So I’ll ride it out tonight
and hope there’s solace on the other side
So I’m just going to lay here
And pass the time away
Try to make it hurt a little less each day
No I don’t want to hold you
Or shout about why
I just miss your company by my side
I just want to talk to you
I just want to talk
So I’m just going to lay here
And pass the time away
Try to make it hurt a little less each day
No I don’t want to hold you
Or shout about why
I just miss your company by my side
I just want to talk to you
Just want to talk to you

Friend Of Mine
02:56
|

If everyone here was just like you, I think I’d want to stay
My old companion, the reason I’m still standing, most of the days
I know it’s been a while since we talked on the phone
And I’ve been trying to make it home for some time
Cause you’re a real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of
Been forever since we got the gang back together, way too long
Now half are married and all walking around so gladly, what went wrong?
One of the few that I could never refuse
And I find it all so hard to define
Cause you’re a real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of
Cause you’re a real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of mine
Real good friend of

Red and the Green
02:37
|

Grab the gear, find a lake, any near?
I feel like drifting away for some time
Take a dip, enjoy a long steady trip
I hear it’s real good for cleansing the mind
The red and the green
Mario and me coming up
Sun and the trees
Pollen in the breeze coming down
Down, down, down, it’s all coming down
Tiny town, many flags flying around
I see the patriots are out on display
And I’m on the beach feeling safely out of reach
Hoping a cold one is coming my way
The red and the green
Mario and me coming up
Sun and the trees
Pollen in the breeze coming down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Red and the green
Mario and me coming up
Sun and the trees
Pollen in the breeze coming down
Red and the green
Mario and me coming up
Sun and the trees
Pollen in the breeze coming down
Red and the green
Mario and me coming up
Sun and the trees
Pollen in the breeze coming down

Sunshine

Passed by the store the other day
Saw a card bright yellow and it said sending ‘sunshine your way’
But it all went south so soon
And now it lays unopen next to you
Right on the steps of Eden
All choked up cause you’re leaving
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way
All broke up and hurting
Wishing I was there in person
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way
We raised a glass the other night
I shared your stories, slurred my words, hope I told them all right
Stumbled home when all was through
The room was spinning with thoughts of you
Right on the steps of Eden
All choked up cause you’re leaving
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way
All broke up and hurting
Wishing I was there in person
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way
Right on the steps of Eden
All choked up cause you’re leaving
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way
All broke up and hurting
Wishing I was there in person
Though I made the choice to stay I’m with you all the way

Second Guess
03:26
|
|||
Look out the window to a road of stone
Kissed by the sun now I’ve crawled back home
Tales of the night I recall to a friend
I say “I’d give anything to be back there again”
Cause nights, nights without thinking
Nights without thinking are the best
And the way, the way that I was feeling
That feeling doesn’t need a second guess
No second guess
Patch of light in a small courtyard
The air is soft but the comedown hard
Do let me know when you’re back in town
And I’ll be prime for another round
Cause nights, nights without thinking
Nights without thinking are the best
And the way, the way that I was feeling
That feeling doesn’t need a second guess
No second guess
Cause nights, nights without thinking
Nights without thinking are the best
And the way, the way that I was feeling
That feeling doesn’t need a second guess
Oh and you, you and me were dancing
Dancing like we’re totally alone
And now I, I’ve got another reason
Got another reason to come home

Fools
04:05
|
|||
I leave your bed for the park in the rain
And I hate to go but I’m giddy every step of the way
And it’s a short straight shot back to town
But all the signs that I pass seem to say turn around
Are we just fools in love?
Are we one in a million?
Does it hurt when I’m gone?
Cause it’s hell when I’m not with you
Are we fools? Fools
Are we fools? Fools
I’m leaving town, looking back, feeling sad
Cause I get the feeling that there’s plenty more kicks to be had
And who knew the damage an encounter could do
Now I’m trying to move on babe
But there’s no way around it, no shaking of you
Are we just fools in love?
Are we one in a million?
Does it hurt when I’m gone?
Cause it’s hell when I’m not with you
Are we fools? Fools
Are we fools? Fools
Are we just fools in love?
Are we one in a million?
Does it hurt when I’m gone?
Cause it’s hell when I’m not with you
Are we fools? Fools
Are we fools? Fools
Fools
Are we fools? Fools
Fools
Fools

Piece of the Action
02:41
|
|||
Comedy at the satellite
The cha-cha-lounge on a Friday night
Gone were the days, cruelly stripped away
Too soon
But now that mortality is in retreat
We’re stepping out from a boarded street
Picking up the phone
Telling everyone we know where to go
I want a piece of the action
I want to lose control
I want the feeling if only just a fraction
That it’s all coming back around
All coming back around
We’re looking fly and it’s been a while
But we’re about ready to hit the tiles
Cautious and slow, so scared to let it go
Not again
I want a piece of the action
I want to lose control
I want the feeling if only just a fraction
That it’s all coming back around
All coming back around
I want a piece of the action
I want to lose control
I want the feeling if only just a fraction
That it’s all coming back around
All coming back around
All coming back around
All coming back around
All coming back around
All coming back around

Stephen

Stephen’s got a ticket to the show
Each week, front row
To watch me wrestle with my thoughts
And come up against the odds
But now he’s called and broke the news
That we’ve been shut down
And all the progress that’s been made
Is now just hollow sound
Don’t leave me, don’t say goodbye
I need you now and I need you by my side
And if I can’t go on, can I pay you for the night?
To tell me everything will be alright
Oh tell me everything will be alright
Should I move to Buffalo?
Give the east coast a go
Horizontal on your couch
I can watch time flow
Or come enjoy the weather here
The endless clientele
Cause they’re all fucking nuts
Crazy as hell
Don’t leave me, don’t say goodbye
I need you now and I need you by my side
And if I can’t go on, can I pay you for the night?
To tell me everything will be alright
Oh tell me everything will be alright
I can’t find the words
So I just say so long
And now I’ll move on to the next
Third times a charm
Don’t leave me, don’t say goodbye
I need you now and I need you by my side
And if I can’t go on, can I pay you for the night?
To tell me everything, tell me everything
Oh tell me everything will be alright

How Close We Came
04:42
|
|||
All on the bed, and all across the floor
I’m packing my bags and I’m headed for the door
All the lights are fading out
They won’t be back again
Taking a lap and saying my goodbyes
I’m kissing the cat with a tear in my eyes
All the lights are fading out
I won’t be back again
No hard feelings, no regrets
No passing blame or late-night texts
We’re runners up out of frame
Still, I’m so proud of how close we came
How close we came
How close we came
Making my exit and I’m gazing to the side
You left me a note and it caught me by surprise
All the words were ringing out
But won’t be seen again
Sun through the window, LA at its best
The birds that attacked me still laughing from their nest
All their songs were singing out
But won’t be heard again
No hard feelings, no regrets
No passing blame or late-night texts
We’re runners up out of frame
Still, I’m so proud of how close we came
How close we came
How close we came
I’ve got a new place, and it’s looking real nice
Location is great but it comes at a price
Living all alone again
Moneys come and gone
I’m starting again, I’m washing out the stains
Getting it together, grabbing hold of the reins
Hope it’s not been too long
Moments come and gone
No hard feelings, no regrets
No passing blame or late-night texts
We’re runners up out of frame
Still, I’m so proud of how close we came
How close we came
How close we came
How close we came
How close we came
How close we came
How close we came
