I was only walking through your neighborhood
Saw your light on
Honey, in the cold I stood
Anywhere I go, there you are
Anywhere I go, there you are
I've been getting used to waking up with you
I've been getting used to waking up here
Anywhere I go, there you are

I was born on a Saturday,
My dad he held me screaming in his arms,
He can talk like it was yesterday,
When I got that holy water in my eye,
It's alright, is it just alright.
See all those faces coming down,
Trying not to let them down,
This time, babe is that alright,

I saw you smile
I knew you had spirit
Oh won't you let your colors run
Isn't it odd, the way we try to tell ourselves we got limits
You're beautiful, but you just don't see it sometimes
And I don't know why
Oh, you're the shape of my days
Oh, you're my holy place

Say I don't look much like a lover
Doesn't mean that I won't try
Set your world on fire every once in awhile
We lie on the kitchen floor
Hot air rises and it's going to be hot as hell here soon
We are going to need some relief
Sick of leaving things half done, leaving things half said
Sick of leaving things half done, leaving things half said

I love you in the morning when the blood runs to your cheeks
Babe, you are the first thing and the last thing that I'd see
I was just a boy striking matches upon your heart
I couldn't get no sparks
Ask me to go faster, put my foot down to the floor
Standing at the edge, I feel like I've been here before
Loved you in the darkness and I loved you in fluorescent light
If it don't feel right, babe

You were the one to visit my darkness
You were the brightest way
You dropped the stone into the well
We'd wait for the sound it made
When it got quiet, you could hear your heart
Tell me, what did it say?
I was a bird, you opened the cage
It felt like a clean white page

(Hmm, babe)
(Hmm, babe)
I could hold you like this all day
Didn't get much sleep, that's okay
Not a single thing needs to change
We can be the light that, don't fade away
(Hmm, babe, hmm, babe)
(Hmm, babe, hmm, babe)

I was only walking through your neighborhood
Saw your light on, honey; in the cold I stood
Anywhere I go there you are
Anywhere I go there you are

I been getting used to waking up with you
I been getting used to waking up here
Anywhere I go there you are

Come over to my house jump in the neighbor's pool, it felt nice, felt so nice
And it was getting dark, you wrapped your long legs around me, I held on tight
Lying in my bed the unfamiliar sheets felt so cool on your skin
When your daddy called said you were at a friend's
And we walked the long way home

Going on, my first impression, I recall you wearing white
There was something sweet in the air, babe, that summer night

You told me boy look the other way
You told me boy bite your tongue
Yes that's not the way,
Yeah that's not the way
Ah that's not the way that friends behave
Ah that's just not the way that friends behave
Oh no, no, no,
No, no, no, no

She is something to behold
Elegant and bold
She is electricity
Running to my soul

And I could easily lose my mind
the way you kiss me
will work each time

You stand with your hand on my waist line
It's a scene and we're out here in plain sight
I can hear them whisper as we pass by
It's a bad sign
Something happens when everybody finds out
See the vultures circling dark clouds
Love's a fragile little flame, it could burn out
It could burn out

I saw you standing there
Sandy blonde hair, the way it came tumbling down
Just like a waterfall
And if you need a light
I'll be the match to your candle
My darling, I'm ready, to burst into flames for you
I was just coasting till we met
You remind me just how good it can get

I was only ten years old
Like the back of my hand, knew the roads
I swerved my bike and lost control
Over the handles in the air
A lady who came walking by found me lying there
And the nurse at the hospital said
"Little boy, don't be scared
Now your father is waiting in the next room

Talking like we used to do
It was always me and you
Shakin up and shippin out
Check me in and check me out
Do you like walking in the rain?
When you think of love, do you think of pain?
You can tell me what you see
I will choose what I believe

Don't walk too proud, don't talk too loud
And make it up as you go
And take whatever you are given
And leave what you think you know
At the door
As she said
You could be my kind of man
And will you do the best you can

I was born of the womb of a poisonous spell
Beaten and broken and chased from the lair
But I rise up above it, high up above it and see
I was hung from the tree made of tongues of the weak
The branches were bones of liars and thieves
Rise up above it, high up above and see

Pray to your god, open your heart

I'm done, I'm done, I don't care how you feel
I'm done, I'm done for now
And I see, I see with every glance that I steal
I'm done, I'm done for now
You say you're used to playin with fire
You say you're heart is on your sleeve
You say you're sometimes sentimental
Well that ain't showin through to me

She don't like small places
Give her highways and byways
And don't get stuck in her head
And it's been so long
And I will read into everything you don't say
All of your silent ways
I'm a dog lying down on a warm bit of pavement
Checking this collar you see what the name is

Riptide
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls
And starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You’re the magician’s assistant in their dreams
Ooooh,
Oh, and they come unstuck

I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dream

Oh, oh, and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide

Oh, Saturday Sun
I met someone
Out on the West Coast
I gotta get back, I can't let this go
Oh, Saturday Sun
I met someone
Don't care what it costs
No ray of sunlight's ever lost

"Straight Into Your Arms"

Walk in the front door, drop my keys
Take my shoes off and go
Straight into your arms; keep me safe
I don't feel like myself
I been waiting to go
Straight into your arms; keep me safe

I used to wait for her, after school
By the gates with my books baby feeling a fool
I used to walk her home every night
In the summer or winter in the sun or ice
We never spoke, I never caught her eye
She didn't even know I was there half the time
I don't think she even knew my name
But I made sure that she always got home safe

I was only walking through your neighborhood
Saw you out loud honey in the cold I stood
Anywhere I go there you are
Anywhere I go there you are

I been getting used to waking up with you
I been getting used to waking up here
Anywhere I go there you are

Think you're in control until you're not
And you're so in love until you're not
Find a place where we can be alone
Find a place where we can be ourselves
So aim high, and aim true
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I'm falling

Under the surface you don't know what you'll find
Mmm, until it's your time
No second chances but all we can do is try
Mmm, I made up my mind
I can't see you
But I hear your call
Baby, hold on now
We're going home

Hold me up to the light
Tell me if the sun comes shining through
And I've got this heaviness in my chest
Since your love came breaking through

And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?
Where is this coming from?

I miss you more than you could know
I watch the grass on the back lawn grow
And I will not allow winds of change to blow
And I hope you decide to come back home
'Cause this heavy heart, oh, how it's yearned
'Cause I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
My love
