This snow is going to make my snowboarding adventure tomorrow night freakin' awesome! Anyone want to roll to Keystone with me? 6 hrs ago
She said, “Hello”
I lost my breath
I’ve never known a girl like this before
We talked all night and I would float on every word
Never known a girl so pure
We fell in love, or so we thought
But as time passed it grew too fast for both of us
I followed my head over my heart
Did i even follow it at all?
Give me one more chance to be the one to love you
Give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Give me one more chance to say I’m sorry for the pain
and I was a fool for letting you go,
But I will be a better man
Just give me one more chance to be the one
I took for granted who you were
Your gentle voice
Your innocent kiss
You were the first to steal my heart,
But I was the first to tear yours out of your chest
We fell out of love
Or so we thought
But as time passed it seemed to last, at least for me
I never thought I’d let you go
You were the purest heart of my life
Give me one more chance to be the one to love you
Give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Give me one more chance to say I’m sorry for the pain
I know I was a fool for letting you go, but I will be a better man
Just give me one more chance to be the one
Time moved on and tables turned
And to think of you, you’d think of him
But if you’re listening
Give me one more chance to love you
Give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Give me one more chance to love you
Give me one more chance to prove you wrong,
Baby,give me one more chance to say I’m sorry for the pain
I know I was a fool for letting us go
But you deserve a better man,
Oh, but give me one more chance to be the one
Oh
She said hello, I lost my breath
I’d never known a girl like this before…
Letting go
is a free-fall it’s
a long road
with no direction
no time, no words, no chance
to go back
to hold on
to ever be the same.
Letting go
becomes all you have
a ticking time bomb
a detonation
no time, no words, no chance
to fight
to run
to stay
You can only hope
you can only believe
that you will land
TOGETHER
In time to survive.
In time for a chance at holding on
Well I’ve been out walking
I don’t do that much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
I don’t think I’ll risk another these days
These days
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well it’s just cause I’ve been losing so long
I quit my scheming
I don’t do all that dreaming these days
These days
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten
Don’t confront me with my failures
I have not forgotten them
Someday
I’ll look into her green eyes
And know that she’ll come with me
A girl like you
Too many
Things I do not care for
But one thing that I adore
Is a girl like you
I’ll always try
To look you in the eye
It’s okay
With a girl like you
Tomorrow
I think I’ll tell you something
The thing that I haven’t said
To a girl like you
And even if
I don’t know what the day will bring
Still I can tell most anything
To a girl like you
I’ll always try
To look you in the eye
It’s okay
With a girl like you
It’s okay
With a girl like you
A girl like you
Looking out the door
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I’m too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight, you’re on my mind so
You never know
Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight?
Child, you know how much I need it.
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away,
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he’s done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one…
So I’ll wait for you… And I’ll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return?
Oh, will I ever learn?
Oh, Lover, you should’ve come over
Cause it’s not too late.
Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won’t ever come
It’s never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It’s never over,
all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her…
It’s never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter…
It’s never over,
She’s a tear that hangs inside my soul forever…
But maybe I’m just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh… lover you should’ve come over…
Yes, and I feel too young to hold on
I’m much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind
To see the damage I’ve done
Sweet lover, you should’ve come over
Oh, love, well I’ll wait for you
Lover, you should’ve come over
‘Cause it’s not too late.
There are faces, there are smiles, so many teeth, too many arms and legs
And eyes and flashing buttons all around me
I’m a-watching, I’m a-breathing, I’m a-pushing, I’m a wishing
That these walls would not be talking quite so loudly
I have burnt down once before I’ve pulled myself up from the floor
And I am looking for a reason to stay standing
But sometimes it’s just too much or not enough or something else
It’s so much bigger than my head, it’s too demanding
Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow
And sometimes if you wanna hold on you got to let go
I’m gonna close my eyes
And count to ten
I’m gonna close my eyes
And when I open them again
Everything will make sense to me then
I have met so many people, we’ve exchanged so many words
We’ve said it all and we’ve said nothing but it’s changed us
I have know a lot of women, some were lovers, some were friends
But all together were they merely passing strangers?
They’ll control you with their silence, they’ll control you with their words
And you’ll control them with your body’s coded signals
In the wild, entangled gardens of our insecurities
We lose our heads into eachother’s hidden pitfalls
Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow
And sometimes if you wanna hold on you got to let go
I’m gonna close my eyes
And count to ten
I’m gonna close my eyes
And when I open them again
Everything will make sense to me then

Oh no, why can’t you get along?
Ok I know it’s not my place.
I’ve got to say something.
I’ve got to say something.
I’ve got to speak.
She’ll never leave.
And you can never throw her out.
Impossible to conceive.
You’d rather be with than without.
That’s just the fear talking.
That’s just the fear talking.
That’s just the fear.
Don’t let it take you.
Like it nearly took me, fear.
Don’t let it fool you.
Like it nearly fooled me, fear.
Remember the good old days.
But love is like a dragonfly.
So beautiful, it will die.
And disappear before your eyes.
I’m no philosopher.
I am no poet.
I’m just trying to help you out.
Don’t let it fool you.
Like it nearly fooled me, fear.
Don’t let it take you.
Like it nearly took me.
And so, you sit and wait.
For another man to take your place.
And when, when he comes.
Would you welcome him with open arms?
You’ll feel a hundred years younger.
You’ll feel a hundred years younger.
You’ll feel no fear.
Don’t let it take you.
Like it nearly took me, fear.
Don’t let it fool you.
Like it nearly fooled me, fear.
Don’t let it kill you.
Like it nearly killed me, fear.
