It Must Be Love
03:22

Verse 1:
Look at the way that your feelings flower
Every time that you hear her name
I’m hoping it lasts, It’s happening fast, never before have I fallen this far, can it be love?
Pre-Chorus:
No one can tell me that this isn’t where we belong
How do you feel when your heart is opened?
It’s full to the brim there’s no room to judge
Whether it’s real, i’m ready to kneel, what are these things that i’m thinking of…
Can it be love?
Chorus:
It must be love, It must be love
Feels like I’m dreaming but I’m not asleep
by the way that I’m feeling it must be love
Verse 2:
Look at the way that you love to follow
her every whim just to make her laugh
she’s ridden with grace, immaculate taste
I’m starting to think that she fell from above, to tell me it’s love
Pre-Chorus:
People can stare at us, they’ll never tear us apart
Chorus
Instrumental
Pre-Chorus:
No one can tell me that this isn’t where we belong
Chorus
Verse 3:
I’m hearing a voice in the back of my mind saying
How do you know that she feels the same?
It’s hard to believe, she’s nodding at me
to answer the question i’m thinking of “Can it be love?”
Tag:
Never before have I fallen this far, it must be love
I’m starting to think that she fell from above, it must be love
Mmm, it must be love.

Braided Heart
02:28
|
|||
There's a part of me where I couldn't go for a while
Delusional in its fantasies, I'd been painting a smile
And it's teaching me to never try…
You thought you'd take your hands and have them hammer into place
The parts you'd call a song but the melody
Escaped your clouded mind, your braided heart…
Thoughts are thinking me, endlessly…
Filling up my mind
And it’s teaching me to never try
Well you thought you'd take your hands and have them hammer into place
The parts you'd call a song but the melody
Escaped your clouded mind your braided heart

Lonesome Road
02:43
|
|||
You’re always on my mind
Telling me we’d always be the same
But Heaven only knows the true reason for the game
It beckons and it calls
And when it leaves the only trace is your heartache
You’re telling me I’m wrong, I’m telling you I’ve always been this way
I guess it goes to show
Just how much attention that you paid
We walk this lonesome road
Just trying to get away from our heartache
They tell me I’ll be better for it all
And that the gain outweighs the fall
They can’t believe I want you back
You’re always on my mind
Telling me we’d always be the same
But Heaven only knows the true reason for the game
It beckons and it calls
And when it leaves the only trace is your heartache
They tell me I’ll be better for it all
And baby that the gain outweighs the fall
They can’t believe, baby I can’t believe that
Finally you’re on your own
You’re never gonna be the one to stay and hold me back from breaking down
And now we’re out on our own
Out on that lonesome road.

Take Me Home
01:36
|
|||
You can take me home
You can take me all the way
Back into your heart
Where I can live another day
I’ve been through it all
Through enough to know
I wanna live - not in words
Not in numbers but in dreams
Forever
Come and live - not in words
Not in numbers but in dreams
All along - by your side
Sleepy eyes could never see me

The Spotlight
03:55
|
|||
Verse 1:
I hope - that I’ve been waiting long enough
Been living out of touch some time and I don’t
Wanna be outside looking in
For any longer, anyone know how…
To get on the inside?
To get in the spotlight?
Verse 2:
I need - just a glimmer of a sign to say
You’re pointed in the right direction
I’m told buckle up and pay your dues
In time they’ll notice you and let you in
And you’ll be on the inside
Right in the spotlight
Chorus:
Well I’ve been waiting long enough
Been living out of touch
Come and get me while I’m young
Before my time is sung
Cus’ I’ve been waiting long enough
I’ve been waiting long enough
Verse 3:
Feels like - I should surrender needing praise
For everything I make and just leave
Take a train and take some time
Give up bleeding give up trying and settle to live
To live on the outside
Out of the spotlight
Chorus
Bridge:
Well your time goes in
And who’s to tell what comes out and what you’ll reap?
Hope that it’s enough that you can rinse and repeat
No guarantee that it’ll keep you from falling
Keep you afloat and get you in
Get you onto the inside
Right in the Spotlight
Chorus x2

Timothy Treadwell
02:13
|
|||
Every summer’s the same he'd take his
Tent and camera leave the shame behind
Set up camp in an open space
‘Neath the cold the foxes embrace him, treat him as their own
"I love you, I love you, And I don't understand. It's a painful world."
Left alone when he needed grace
He would hide just to see their faces
Stones and taunting games
Thrown and threatened his way
"I love you, I love you, And I don't understand. It's a painful world."
Thought himself a savior, he called upon the rain
The salmon run was late and it needed his hand
But they told him Timothy don't intrude
The Treadwell tragedy is only in you
"I love you, I love you, And I don't understand. It's a painful world."

Hold on to the Faith
03:29
|
|||
Nothing left but a sign
Open arms and empty mind
I've never known how long it would take
but I’m gonna hold on to the faith
I open up to the feathered touch
and when i let it in i cant get enough
I never know how long it'll stay
But I’m gonna hold on to the faith
It's only a question if i believe
So I let it in I let it be
I’ve never known how long but I’m gon' gonna hold on, oh hold on...
Nothing left in my way
An open road for me to take
And with every step and with every pace
You know I’m gonna hold on to the faith.

Ode to Carolina
03:24
|
|||
Verse 1:
Tonight I'm gonna be in Carolina
Tonight I'm gonna leave it all behind
Somewhere in the mountains womb
Teetering on the edge of youth
Feeling for a way to clear my mind
Verse 2:
Tonight I'll be in Carolina
Where this small town chokehold has to let me go
Where the air is clear and the sky is true
The birds and the trees don't lie to you
Somewhere I can feel I'm on my own
Bridge:
I don't think I'll be lonely
Cus I don't need the opinions of fools
Verse 3:
And if tomorrow comes to save me
From this dark white light that heats me up inside
With questions I don't wanna ask
They're too confused to answer back
Promise that the feeling won't subside
Bridge:
I don't believe what they tell me
I can't ignore what I feel to be true
I'm being tethered and torn and uprooted
To the veil of the North, where the fate is in tune...
Verse 4:
Maybe I'll return in sandals
With a crown upon my head to show I pained
But I hope I find that inner peace
This stirring settles down in me
Carolina lead me to be changed
Outro:
I believe in Carolina
I believe in Carolina
I believe, yes I believe in Carolina
I believe in Carolina

Can We Be Friends?
04:01
|
|||
Verse 1:
I've been looking for answers that i've yet to find
I gave you plenty of chances to change your mind
I've been running the numbers and they're coming out wrong
Even terminal lovers should try to carry on
Pre chorus:
If I pressed too hard and sent you off the rails
It's cus my eager heart couldn't help it
Chorus:
All I wanna know is can we be friends?
After all is said and done
Let this bitter hour of battling end
Can we be friends?
Verse 2:
I don't know why I doubted that we'd come undone
Might have been all the times you said that we belong
Pre-meditated predictions when you chose to leave
I think it hurt me the most when you pinned it all on me
Pre chorus:
If I had started out soft would you have lingered for a while?
Or were we cursed from the start to be ended?
Chorus
Bridge:
Well I chose to give up holding on to pride
In hopes that we'd try to mend it
Yes I long to be right but you’d beat me every time
So I forgave it all
Chorus

Let Love
03:00
|
|||
Let Love come and wash away your tears
Breathe in, breathe out, ease away your fears
I won’t ever turn away my gaze from you…
Wake up and you work up to living what you’ve known
Take time for your frame of mind, feed what’s in your soul
I won’t ever turn away my gaze
Guiding, holding you in highest praise
Don’t you ever believe you’re not enough
If you could only see
If you could only believe that Heaven’s in you and me
Maybe one day we’ll join and hand in hand
Let Love, spread Love and joy in every man
I won’t ever turn away my gaze from you…you…
Let Love, let go and Let Love in.
