The Bridge

I walk the bridge alone at night
A view of our fair city gleaming to my right
And anyone can see Anyone can see
We walked the bridge for the first time
Did not say a word with your hand in mine
Could anybody know? Could anybody know?
A home of our own
I walk over every day
with spinning, windy bicycles on their way
Can we take a ride? Can we take a ride?
A home of our own A home of our own
When you say
when you say softly
when you say softly to me to me
Let’s go home Let’s go home

The Breakup

How will I ever get to sleep? Tonight is long before me
Oh how the hours seem to go so slow when I’m here without you
I’ll wait and see
Sit here patiently
Who’ll be the first to call and say, hey, I’m sorry baby
I really think it should be you, yeah you should make the first move
I’ll wait it out and see
Sit here patiently
And I wait for you to pick up the phone
Darling call me, I’m home
I don’t care whose stupid idea it was to breakup to breakup
Ok so maybe it was me, I see, how I was hasty
Maybe we both misunderstood, we should just call it even
Stop and count to ten
Breathe and start again
And I wait for you to pick up the phone
Darling call me, I’m home
I don’t care whose stupid idea it was to breakup to breakup
I am fighting the temptation to call
Picking up the phone’s not hard after all
But it’s only been two hours since it all went down
And I wait for you to pick up the phone
I’m just sitting at at home
I don’t care who’s stupid idea
And I wait for you to pick up the phone
Please just call me, I’m home
I don’t care whose stupid idea it was
To breakup To breakup
To breakup Let’s kiss and makeup

Ordinary Love
02:15
|

If you told me so
Then I’d suppose
That this was all
An ordinary love
Ordinary love
I know that I alone
I'm not the only one
to fall in ordinary love
ordinary love
And I never thought that I
could love you more
I do
and to tell the truth
I hope that you’ll
Say that you will come along
and make my life like a song
This ordinary love
extraordinary love
Oh, I love you so

In The Red
04:53
|

|
Driven to distraction, living on emptiness
Doing anything that I can think of just to try to forget
I’m running low, running low
Doing next to nothing and I’m wondering when it’s time to give up
Like when I’m dreaming and the air is thick,
I’m running but I’ll never catch up
I’m running low
I’m running low
But I can’t stop now, drive it down to the red
All used up, drive it down the red
Can’t turn back, it’s too late to start again
Try to pull myself together, might as well hit the pedal instead
Can’t let go, but I'm losing to the beast inside
It never lets up, feels like there is no end in sight
I’m running low, running low
CHORUS
Try to pull myself together
Will it be like this forever?
Will I ever learn to turn it around?

Your Hands
04:24

Your hands are the end of many years of evolution
Your hands are a means to many ends
Your hands play the chords to sing the songs you wrote for me
Of marigolds and valentines and love
When you’re far away your hands text me little notes
They dial up my number late at night
Your hands hold the wheel that drives us to familiar places
And undiscovered spaces all the same
Your hands Your hands, my love
Your hands hold the leash to walk the dog when I am tired
Your hands leave a note that says you love me
Your hands rest beneath your head sometimes when you are sleeping
That my dear is why I love your hands
Your hands Your hands
Darling, I... Your hands
Everything’s alright when you’re in front of me
Everything is how it should be
It all falls apart when you’re away from me
When all I’ve left to think about is me
Your hands make a pool of melted butter on my wheat toast
They make me breakfast almost every day
Your hands Your hands
Darling, I...
Your hands, my love
