Lazy Recollection
There’s a resonance of you
It’s in the air
It circulates around me
It’s everywhere
It’s like somebody
Breathed you into me
But I exhaled too quickly
And fell through the trees
Now I’m not very certain
When it comes to these things
But my blood keeps pushing
Through my veins
It’s just a lazy recollection
Of the boy I used to be
And the girl in you who fell in love
With the man I can’t see
When you touch me it feels the same
When you left me I felt no pain
Everyday Perception
Come here boy, it’s time to shine
You’ve been taken for granted far too long
Beautiful, women so strong
It’s never too late, it’s never been too long
The sky splits wide open
The sun spots are streaming
Your lasting intensions
Will keep you from dreaming, I say…
No, no, no, no, no
I love this full-hearted end
To a long life’s day
When all the wisdom pours in
The old fashioned way
When I return to grace
By losing my place
And gaining some space
Creating who I want to be
When my dreams
They become
My everyday perception
You Could Be Happy Again
I lost your face in another crowd
I heard you scream and I called you out
I saw you wave as you shaped water to gold
The little things that you learn about
I saw your face before that empty sound
The reverb slams as your eyes lock on the floor
If you came to win again just know
Forgiveness is the only way you score
If you could just let yourself
You could be happy again
You pick me up like a lead balloon
Off of the ground, under the silver moon
You lit the stage and our way on the road home
The windows sigh as you leave the room
The scent of flowers in the afternoon
You had your way and you just want me to know
If you came to win again just know
Forgiveness is the only way you score
If you could just let yourself
You could be happy again
Strangest Place
Missing your eyes
Tied to your smile
Taking your aim
You laugh like a child
Take my hand and run
Stars fall into place
As we fall in…
I listen as the record ends
Just before the needle strays
I find myself forcing to miss you
I find myself in the strangest place
It’s different now
I found my space
Since I left that town
I haven’t thought of your face
Take my hand and run
Stars fall into place
As we fall in…
I listen as the record ends
Just before the needle strays
I find myself forcing to miss you
I find myself in the strangest place
