Treading Water
CH:
The tidal wave is coming
And all that you can do
Is take its best shot, let it feel how it feels
‘Cause the only way out is through
When it hit, we all lost our footing we were washed out to sea
Kick for the surface, look for a purpose to breathe
Its gonna take time, we gotta make time, take time, we gotta make time you see
You’re swallowed by the floor but you come back for more, underneath
CH
Cast a stone create a ripple
Cast a shadow I track you down
Cast a spell I’m yours forever, no more lookin’ for the high ground
Cast a glance I’ll take it with me & leave our mark upon this world
As we cast our reflection, and the storms above us swirled yeah
The light came through in shafts and it ruined the waves
A shattered reflection of the past, now mosaic that it made
But then the waters recede, and our lives are strewn across the beach
A book of broken mirrors that nobody else can read

Go On Boldly

Go On Boldly
I know your heart is heavy, and the burden runs deep
You feel it most in the nighttime, before you go to sleep
All alone in the darkness, as you wait for the sun
What could’ve been and what could’ve been done
And now your mind races
And your eyes dart
You’ve got it all memorized
You know it by heart
CH
And if you let it all go, the story won’t end
The hummingbirds will come to the vines again
She’d say go on boldly, Take your love by the hand
And follow the road ‘til it ends
Two kindred souls, shined a light for all to see
A beacon of hope for them and for me
Both destroyed by loss, feared not to recover
Found sanctuary in love, and in one another
And now your mind races
And your eyes dart
You’ve got it all memorized
You know it by heart

This House

This House
How can this house feel so empty
When it was once so full of love
Same four walls, same roof overhead
Memories hidden within, like the dollars in the books that you read
How can this house feel so cold
No matter how hot the furnace burns
Coals glow red up through the cracks in the floor
But my blood never learns
CH
You’re still not sure you can bring yourself to pray
Every time you do you’re reminded
Of how this life brought you to your knees
You lost faith I’ll let you find it
Lost your faith I’ll help you find it
I know she broke through a hundred ceilings
Cloud tufts around her feet
But I still see her in the garden
dead heading the flowers & pulling all the weeds
so, if your walls are caving in
and it’s all gone up in flames
Just leave that emptiness at the front door
shell be waving from the window as you drive away
CH
How can this house feel so empty
When it was once so full of love

It’s Called A Broken Heart
You call my name in the night when you can’t sleep, but I won’t wake
In a place I know I can never leave, I know you won’t stay
CH
And it’s called a broken heart
Breaks but it never really heals
Leaves your world torn apart
I wish you didn’t know how it feels
I tucked your hair behind your ears, and kissed your forehead so sweet
You just stared at the floor, studied the tops of your feet
This is one of those times when you’re not sure you’ll make it through
But I’ll tell you now & I’ll tell you true
The day will come when we say life can’t be this good
The sun will shine on me & it’ll shine on you
CH
And if you’re lookin’ for a sign
Your heart will know it’s there
Like the time the yard was full of cardinals
And butterflies landed in your hair
CH

All at Once
You said there’s a piece of music for every moment in your life
Good or bad, you said sometimes that’s all you think about
And sometimes that’s all, all that matters
I believe the day will come, all at once
And on that day, we’ll fall in love, all at once
You’re gonna fall in love with me
That’s just the way it’s gonna be
I’ll teat you so kindly, you’ll see
With the breezes on our back, I promise you that
I’ll keep you safe from harm, right here in my arms

Let The Music Fall
Let the music fall
Lay down in the dark with me
It’s different underneath
If you just believe
Faint hearts, Chandeliers
Fall apart over us my dear
In a crystal hurricane dream
When the mist pours over
And the power lines buzz
You hear the church bells down the hill, still
Softly Through, Me and you
Let the music fall
Lay down in the dark with me
It’s different underneath
If you just believe
Even now, Even still
We allow our souls to spill
In a crystal hurricane dream

Lonesome & Then Some
I’m the captain of a leaky little boat
And below, a soft glow, my embers burn
Face to face with a storm that’ll bend you at the knees
Still I push on, Full steam ahead
I want to forget, and be forgotten
CH
‘caus I’m lonesome and then some
Lonesome and then some tonight
I harbor these memories so I don’t forget just what I’ve lost
But the truth is, I should give up the ghost
The beauty of decay, Hope starts to fade
I’m lost at sea and I’m never coming home
CH
I’m the captain of a leaky little boat
And below, a soft glow, my embers burn
Face to face with a storm that’ll bend you at the knees

Stillwater
You take the river down, ‘til we find Stillwater
No looking back now, so why even bother
Memories sink behind us in our wake
But you know water holds the light
Our dreams cascade before us in the sun
Wish I may, wish I might
We said our goodbyes way back there
But down this corridor there’s just something in the air
I feel alive on these streets of cobblestone
And with you by my side, I’ll never be alone
See the drawbridge lift, it picks my spirits up too
This roamers lullaby comes shinin’ through
Through my shirt, with the beating of my heart
And it feels good to make a brand new start
Baby, you don’t have to worry
‘Cause all roads will lead me to you
Up where the air is thin now
I have the most wonderful view
So why not now and why not here
See us through these shining years
I gotta try, if I don’t I’ll never know
Misty morning and the river flows
You take the river down
‘til we find Stillwater
