Wonder

(Verse I)
You make me smile when my face is tight
You are that voice in the still of the night
You give me hope when I feel worthless
You make me wonder if I deserve this

(Verse II)
You help me run when I can’t walk
You are my sun when my world’s dark
You lift me up when I’m feeling low
You make my heart race out of control

(Chorus)
I know it’s not the norm
How you weather my every storm
Like lightening you strike
Just when the moment is right
In a flash my troubles go away
And there’s nothing left to say
Except I love the things you do
I love the wonder that is you

(Bridge)
When I’m breaking down
And no one else is around
You are my crutch so I can lean
You mean so much to everything

(Verse III)
You are my breath when I need air
You are my worry when I don’t care
You talk me down when I’m on the ledge
You’re my everything this I pledge


(Chorus)

Stay

(Verse I)
When the words run out
Stolen by regrets
And nothing’s left to say
Except sorry I guess
I try to step up
And be a better man
But so far It seems
I’m doing the worst I can

(Pre-Chorus)
I wish I knew how to make things right
Through every restless day and sleepless night
I can’t stand hurting you this way, I don’t want to fight
So here it goes, here it goes

(Chorus I)
Now you’re my universe
You’re every constellation
Shooting through my sky
Screaming for reconciliation
When I know that I’m at fault
Guilty of breaking your heart 
I keep stumbling on the words to say
I just need you to stay

(Verse II)
Sometimes I’m a challenge
My head is a mess
Filled with so many questions
That I cannot digest
If the path is straight and narrow
Then I’m every bend
Curving my way to losing
My best friend

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus II)
Now you’re my world
You’re my every breath
I was my own worst enemy
Before we ever met
When I know that I’m wrong
Singing the same old song
I just need to try to find a way
To get you to stay

(Bridge)
I know that I’m a handful
This I will admit
All I know is I’m thankful
That you put up with it
You deserve better than me
Now knowing that ain’t easy
‘Cuz of you I have grown
With you I am reborn


(Chorus I)

What Love Is

(Verse I)
Never in my wildest dreams
When I was coming apart at the seams
Could I’ve imagined finding salvation
Or find the shore in drowning seas
Before the walls were closing in
And the end is where I’d begin
Now there’s light beyond the ridge
Now there’s so many reasons to live

(Chorus)
So c’mon, can you steady see our future
I said c’mon, are you ready to be nurtured
We both deserve so much
But our past wasn’t enough
We knew we could both do better than this
Now together we know what love is

(Verse II)
So I guess this is the way
That love was meant to be
When a time before today
I gave my heart up in defeat
‘Cuz it took us both so long
But hope kept us hangin’ on
To something that was fading
To something we thought was gone

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
The timing couldn’t be better
When we needed each other most
All of the ties we severed
And the image of love was a ghost
We’re pretty stable apart
But together we stand strong
Nothing can break us down
As one we can do no wrong


(Chorus)

Crush

(Verse I)
You’re always in my mind’s eye
Can you see me in yours
Is it just a matter of time
Or to you am I obscure
So many words now are fleeting
In the depths of my soul repeating
Just tell her, just tell her

(Chorus I)
That I want to be your crush
I’m not asking for much
I just want to know you care
But in my heart I’m prepared
For you to turn the other cheek
To break me down when I am weak
But just to know would be enough
I just want to be your crush

(Verse II)
Am I relevant in your world
‘Cuz to me there’s no other girl
Every day I pray for a sign
Hoping you will change your mind

(Chorus II)
Now I just want to be your crush
But to you there’s no rush
I just want you to know I’m there
When you’re deep in despair
Now I don’t know what I can do
To make my life a part of you
When the waiting drives me nuts
All I wants to be your crush

(Bridge)
In this longing I’m so confused
Trying to find my way closer to you
But maybe there’s just no chance
Now daydreaming’s all I have

(Chorus II)

(Chorus I)

Forever

(Verse I)
Everyone has hopes of being forever
Through the ups and downs, staying together
What if I told you that I had my doubts
Not for our love, but what this life’s about

(Verse II)
Everyone fears the day it could end
When two bitter hearts never seem to mend
They say it ain’t easy, it takes work and trust
It takes two free spirits to make the two of us

(Chorus)
Why does forever seem so far away
When it’s all we ever wanted
But I don’t want us to change
‘Cuz now the struggle is real
And all our cards have been revealed
Let’s write a story from here ever after
For worse or better, hand in hand
Forever

(Verse III)
Can a person have more than one soulmate
Where all these faces in places congregate
You can walk down a busy street and pass them by
Then love slips through your hands in the blink of an eye                                                                                                                         
(Verse IV)
Do we have what it takes to break the mold
Can we grow old together before love’s grown cold
I know I’m not perfect, far from it at best
I’m my own worst enemy, this I confess

(Chorus)

(Instrumental Bridge)

(Chorus)

Awakening

(Verse I)
Like a sleeping giant
I rub my eyes to the rays
Of sunlight that fall upon me
Years have left me dazed
When every step forward
Seemed like two steps back
I’ve awoken something inside
That's changed who I am

(Pre-Chorus)
Like a storm to the shore
Waves crashing true to form
Cleaning up the aftermath
Now there’s no looking back

(Chorus)
Now my past is for the taking
Empowered in this awakening
I’m me again, free again
Now my hands they keep on shaking
Overcome by this awakening
I can be again, begin again
Just when I thought I was forsaken
Thanks to you, I’ve been awakened

(Verse II)
The pot has been stirred inside
Shaken to its core
So in this I do confide
I just couldn’t take anymore

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
When you’ve had enough
And the mirror reflects behind
Eyes that see a future
That you never thought you’d find
Hold on there is hope
The perfect anecdote
And when it finally appears
It'll wash away your fears

(Chorus)

Misfire

(Verse I)
On the brink of sanity
I try to find some truth
In my distorted reality
From years of abuse
Memories like sand
Fall through the cracks
The days fade away
There’s no looking back

(Pre-Chorus)
Reality is escaping me
When all I need is clarity

(Chorus I)
When there’s a misfire in your mind
And all your thoughts intertwine
Like wires, like wires
When there’s a desire to turn back time
And your memories are hard to find
Welcome to the misfire, misfire

(Verse II)
Lapses come and go
Everything blends together
How was I to know
All I can do is surrender

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus II)
When there’s a misfire in your head
And all your thoughts seem to blend
In the mire, the mire
When there’s a desire to turn the page
But the years lost so many days
Welcome to the misfire, misfire

(Bridge)
Am I insane
All these images in my brain
Flashes of what used to be
Creating anarchy

(Chorus II)

(Chorus I)

In The Air

(Verse I)
So many faces we see over time
In the empty spaces we tend to reside
I’ve felt your touch in my mind’s eye
Now all I have are thoughts passing by

(Pre-Chorus)
Sometimes I miss
Those days of bliss
When we first met
I’ll never forget
You’re still there, we’re still there

(Chorus)
In the air, I feel you all around me
In the air, I know you still surround me
When I want go back to the places where
We came to be in the times we shared
I just look up into the sky and stare
Cuz I know you’re there, somewhere, in the air

(Verse II)
Some are lost but not gone forever
We’ll always be linked by all our endeavors
It’s been so long I should’ve reached out
To see how you are but it's too late now

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
I’m driving around town
Nostalgia’s stomping grounds
Seeing visions in my eyes
I hope I never forget those times

(Chorus)

My Truth

(Verse I)
There’s a moment if you’re lucky you get to behold
When your heart sinks down into depths of your soul
When your palms sweat from nerves out of control
In someone’s eyes you find a place you can call home

(Chorus I)
It’s been a long road baby, through the thick and thin
I didn’t know when it would end or how to begin
To tell you how grateful I am to have found solace in you
When I needed answers, in you, I found my truth

(Verse II)
There’s hope that time will heal all wounds
When you’re lost and don’t know what to do
When the skies part the light leaves you blind
Opening up your heart and freeing your mind

(Chorus II)
It’s been a tough day baby, but I’ll be okay
Hindsight a reminder I couldn’t go on that way
So cold and lonely but now I have no excuse
Cuz when I needed answers, in you, I found my truth

(Bridge)
You make this easy
When I thought it was hard
I know we’re both jaded
I know we’re both scarred
So broken and bitter
But through the harshest of winters
We’ll keep each other warm
We’ll weather any storm

(Chorus II)

(Chorus I)

Gravity

(Verse I)
When did breathing become so hard
It’s been that way right from the start
So much to say but courage is fleeting
Since first sight, since our first meeting

(Pre-Chorus)
This heart aches from so many mistakes
What should I do, what will it take
To right my wrongs, to be in your arms

(Chorus I)
Now I see you across a crowded room
Your smile of light eyes of summer renewed
I’m walking on air but don’t know what to do
This gravity is pulling me closer to you

(Verse II)
I’m high as a satellite but losing direction
Your magnetic charisma is so infectious
Pull me down before I crash and burn
Now missing my chance my only concern

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus II)
There you are across a crowded room
Your hair like rain bringing spring to bloom
I’m walking on air but don’t know what to do
This gravity is pulling me closer to you

(Bridge)
I’m waiting, still waiting
Anticipating, but praying
To not let this slip, lose my chance
This may be the only one I have

(Chorus I)

(Chorus II)
