"Wallingford"

"Wallingford"



What I need is a hand that'll hold on
Reaching out and not letting go
Many times I find I am let down
By the ones, who keep me close

Are you kept then told like a secret
Do you find that you're kept in the dark
Calling out, your voice is an echo
No words come back, but your own

As a whole
As a whole

Free to fly but your wings haven't grown out
Many windows in the house
Please tell us what concerns you
Not to help, but to look the part

Anxiously awaiting your arrival
You look like you could use a rest
Overwhelmed by all the excitement
Better friends to take your place

As a whole
As a whole
As a whole
As a whole

"Waters Ave. S."

"Waters Ave. S."



Autumn falls down these streets we'll walk together
You'll take my hand inside your hand lightly

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

Meet me downtown we'll walk around just you and me
Hey there's my house Waters Avenue South

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone

You used kiss me on the bus and now
I'll walk these streets alone without you

By myself

"Wedding Cake"

"Wedding Cake"



You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll regret."
He's out there setting fires to
The demons in his head

Once you called it perfect love
You now call it accident
Do you sit with your photo books
Wondering where it went

It was clearly never meant to be

You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll forget."
How do you erase a ghost
Who sleeps inside your bed

Throw away your wedding rings
Give away the gown
Say goodbye to the accident
Who only brought you down

It was clearly never meant to be

You told all your friends,
"He's someone I'll regret."
He's out there setting fires to
The demons in his head

Once you called it perfect love
You now call it accident
Do you sit with your photo books
Wondering where he went

It was clearly never meant to be
It was clearly never meant to be

"What Were The Chances"

"What Were The Chances"



When I left you alone to fight your battles
Of long winters and motels what went through your mind?
How is it that you made it?
How is it that you noticed?
It wasn't me who was looking at you
Through foggy glass or windows, it was them

I was out in Coolidge with my head on a counter
Drinking down my chances to ever return to anyone
No I wasn't faking it, the hurt I felt was real
And all that was holy just slowly disappeared
Or just appeared in parking lots of truck stops
The blinking lights, and now all I'm thinking is
"How the hell did I get here?"

Does your husband know I call you sweetheart?
Does he know that I call you at all?
It's not like you are cheating we're only meeting
In hotels and not your home
Would you change your last name to mine?
I think my kids would mind
I think my kids would mind

I was in the desert waving planes and burning phone books
To a tune that was famous the year I was born
Do not leave me dancing alone
Pick up the phone and call me lover
Say come and get me I am home
Please pick up the phone
Please pick up the phone

"White Center"

"White Center"



Heard he shot another
No one knows a reason
It didn't make the paper
It's just another white lie
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center

Can I take out the flowers?
Sunday packed the churches
Morning comes too slowly
For us who feel like victims
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center

Turn off your headlights
Here comes a cop car
Music for the bad boys
Music for the good boys
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center
Here in White Center

"Window"



I am looking at a beautiful window
That window is your eyes
And the only time I saw rainfall
Was the day your mother died

And I am looking at a beautiful rainbow
The rainbow is your smile
Oh, the only time I heard laughter
Was the day I took you as my bride

I am looking at a beautiful window
The window is your eyes
Oh, the only time I saw rainfall
Was the day your mother died

And I am walking with my Savior
My Savior walks with me
Oh, He will guide me up to heaven
Where you & I shall meet

"With Lightning In Your Hands"

"With Lightning In Your Hands"



Throw down your soul
Keep it in the soil
Will you return with a storm

Pockets full of silver
Treasures made of gold
Will you return with a mighty storm

Hiding in the shadow
Caught in your trees
Will you return with a mighty storm

"Working Titles"

"Working Titles"



You could mess up my life in a poem
Have me divorced by the time of the chorus
There's no need to change any sentence
When you always decide where I go next

Many nights you would hide from the audience
When they were not in tune with your progress
In the end you're a fool like the journalist
Who turns what you sing into business

You could use to be more like a hero
A darker shade of damage distortion
Wearing death like a cape or a costume
Cut your ties and leave town when you want to

Killing time 'til I pass through the chamber
Or the room you keep my replacement
so fed up, still you're starving on paper
You're no him, but he's you, only better

Leave me an exit to damage
I could use a ledge to jump off of
I wasn't lying when I said this was over
I have questions that lead to more questions

Running time that will cut off my fingers
You wrote about me on every new record
And I'll show up in a title of your song
I only hope somebody requests it

What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know

Leave me Manhattan, I want the evergreens
Write me a song I can sing in my sleep
As sure as the rain that will fall where you stand
I want you and the skyline, these are my demands

What's it like for you in Washington
I've only seen photos of Washington
I'll never know, know

"Yuma, AZ"

"Yuma, AZ"



Once met a girl in Yuma, Arizona
Whose mother was dyslexic like mine
Grandpa owned a ranch, it's where she learned to dance
I hear she goes out dancing all the time

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where she'll be found
Dancing out in the street

She met a boy who worked as a waiter
Down at the local five and dime
She took him to the ranch, it's where he learned to dance
I hear they go out dancing all the time

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where they'll be found
Dancing out in the street

When it rains, it pours in Yuma, Arizona
When it rains, it pours
And when the sun goes down
You know where I'll be found
Dancing out in the street
