Counting Down the Hours
03:27

I've been sitting here
on this lonely park bench
Counting down the hours til the sun sets
or the world ends.
I've been thinking of all the things
that I wanna do
Gonna clean myself up
See my kids again.
I used to think of all the places
I've never been
Until I started thinking
of how lucky I've been
'Cause I'm a working man
no city's my home
Been moving on my whole life
I will always roam.
I've been thinking of all the ways
my life might end
In a big white bed
with all my close friends there
but I might rather have a cigarette
under an old tree
somewhere in the woods
where you will never find me.

Before Our Quiet Love
03:45
|

Do you hear the silence
As it echoes ‘round our living room
With open ears
And a quiet hope
Do you hear the quiet
As it falls down with this dusk
Through the eldest trees
That are in the woods
What did they hear before me?
What did they hear before you?
Before our quiet love?
Do you hear my heartbeat
As it reaches from my chest
It is with me now
And until I rest
Do you hear the chorus
Lush and loud at dawn and dusk
Where the crickets sing
And the birds they fight
What did they hear before me?
What did they hear before you?
Before our quiet love?
Can you hear my words now
As true as I can speak them
To a town called home
To my mom and dad
What did they hear before me?
What did they hear before you?
Before our quiet love?

The Last Time I Saw You
02:57
|
|||
You were sitting there
On my porch
The last time I saw you
And it seems that I
Have forgot
What it is, what it feels like
To touch
Your hand was holding mine
All this time
How could I be so blind
Be so blind
Well the sun is rising on a new dawn
And the stars are praying as they fade
I woke from a dream
And a lie
For the very last time
But you were stuck in your
History book
With your favorite ending
Like someone you know
All too well
You can’t see in them a spell
Well the sun is rising on a new dawn
And the stars are praying as they fade
All my neighbor said
Was a quell
A closed book can’t be read
But all the birds and trees
They can tell
What you really mean
So get off my porch
Walk away
And fall out of your daydream
Well the sun is rising on a new dawn
And the stars are praying as they fade
Yes the sun is rising on a brand new dawn
And the stars are praying as they fade
