Better Together
Length: 3:27
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoe box of photographs
With sepia-toned loving
Love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it’s so hard?
It’s not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I’ll tell you one thing, it’s always better when we’re together
Yeah, we’ll look at the stars when we’re together
Well, it’s always better when we’re together
Yeah, it’s always better when we’re together
Banana Pancakes
Length: 3:11
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
You hardly even notice when I try to show you this song it’s meant to keep you from
Doing what your supposed to.
Like waking up too early, maybe we could sleep in,
Make your banana pancakes, pretend like it’s the weekend now.
And we could pretend it all the time.
Can’t you see that it’s just raining?
There ain’t no need to go outside.
But just maybe, like a ukulele, mama made a baby.
Really don’t mind to practice, ’cause you’re my little ladie.
Ladie, ladie love me, ’cause I love to lay here lazy.
We could close the curtains, pretend like there’s no world outside.
And we could pretend it all the time, yeah.
Cant you see that it’s just raining?
There ain’t no need to go outside.
Ain’t no need, ain’t no need
Upside Down
Length: 3:29
Release: 2009
Opening Lyrics:
Well, they forgot this world keeps spinning
And with each new day
I can feel a change in everything
And as the surface breaks, reflections fade
But in some ways, they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread its wings
There’s no stopping curiosity
I’ll find the things they say just can’t be found
I’ll share this love I find with everyone
We’ll sing and dance to Mother Nature’s songs
I don’t want this feeling to go away
Well, I can try
And as I roll along, I begin to find
Sitting, Waiting, Wishing
Length: 3:03
Release: 2018
Opening Lyrics:
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you’d see the signs
And I ain’t the Lord, no I’m just a fool
Learning loving somebody don’t make them love you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn’t worth never having you
But it’s my first time, so please ignore
The next few lines ’cause they’re directed at you
I can’t always be playing, playing your fool
I Got You
Length: 2:05
Release: 2013
Opening Lyrics:
Every pot of gold fill and full of distortion
Heaven was a place still in space not in motion
But soon
I got everything
I Got You
I don’t need nothing more than you
I got everything
I Got You
Tryin’ to pretend that we both know
Maybe if we save up
We can build a little home
But then the hail storm came and yelled
“You need to let go, you’ve got no control”
No
I got everything
