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.

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

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

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

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."

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.

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

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.
