He was born in the sticks right in the middle of fall
He wants to be a cheerleader, runs away from the ball
He's got a song in his heart and a collection of dolls
And there's a pale shade of pink on his bedroom walls

He's got a whole lot of friends and his jokes make 'em weak

We plow the fields and scatter the good seed on the land
But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand
He sends the snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain
The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain

All good gifts around us
Are sent from Heaven above

His hair falls in cool careless waves without tryin'
Goes days without cryin'
But still treats me kind
And it's not his fault, all the sleep I've been losin'
The way that I'm ruined

One look in his eyes and I'm gone
Helplessly dumb
My senses go numb
My brain is

You always said that I'd come back to you again
'Cause everybody needs a friend, it's true
Someone to quiet the voices in my head
Make 'em sing to me instead, it's you

Hate to say that I love you
Hate to say that I need you
Hate to say that I want you
But I do

There's been something following me all my life
Some protection that I can't define
How I earned it, not a clue
They said: It's a universal stars align
It's a message from the great divine
But it didn't quite ring true

Like a hope I couldn't place
Til the day I saw

They say no one's perfect and I know that's true
But you make it feel like a lie
Try to wrap my head around the universe
Is what loving you is like

Imagine the way it feels
It nearly kills me when you lose the fight
Watching your shadow try to turn out all the lights

Uh huh
Yeah
Tell me am I going crazy? (Uh huh)
Tell me have I lost my mind? (Yeah)
Am I just afraid of lovin'? (Uh huh)
Or am I not the lovin' kind? (Yeah)
Kissin' in the moonlight
Movies on a late night
Gettin' old
(Uh huh)
I've been there, done that

Most days I wake up with a pain in my chest
There are thoughts that I can't put to rest
There's a worry that I can't place
Most nights I am restless and quiet, won't come
So I lay there and wait for the Sun
There's a trouble that won't show its face

You came out of nowh

Yes, she looks for me--good
Let her look for me to tell me why she left me
As I always knew she would
I had thought she understood
They have never understood
And no reason that they should
But if anybody could

Finishing the hat
How you have to finish the hat

End of May or early June
This picture-perfect afternoon we shared
Drive the winding country road
Grab a scoop at À La Mode
And then we're there

An open field that's framed with trees
We pick a spot and shoot the breeze
Like buddies do
Quoting songs by our favori

You say there's so much you don’t know
You need to go and find yourself
You say you'd rather be alone
'Cause you think you won’t find it tied to someone else

Ooo, who said it's true
That the growing only happens on your own?
They don't know me and you

I don't thin

There's something about you in the moonlight
But your eyes go so well with the day
You won't let go of your layers
But your power can strip me away

It's easier for us to hide
If you come out then so will I
Promise that I'll meet you halfway
Cause I see every part of

You melt me away, stretch out my days
Turn all my colors into hues
Filtering rays, magnolia shade
Under the cover of you
All the words l've ever said are tumbling
All the walls inside my head are crumbling

Oh, honey mine, you slow the time
My days and dreams all ble

I think it sucks that you're perfect
'Cause you're not perfect for me
And though you kill me with kindness
It ain't the kind that I need
I know we look good on paper
Until you give us a read
'Cause when we pull back the curtains
There ain't a whole lot to see

I

Your eyes give life a new meaning
It's like I found the North Lights
I never knew what I needed
Until I found your hand holding mine, yeah

You say I'm your hero
But you are the one that saved me
If I ever lost you
I'd fall to my knees

I can't imagine my life w

Your eyes give life a new meaning It's like I found the North Lights I never knew what I needed Until I felt your hand holding mine Yeah, you say I'm your hero But you are the one that saved me

You put all your faith in my dreams
You gave me the world that I wanted
What did I do to deserve you?
I follow your steps with my feet
I walk on the road that you started
I need you to know that I heard you, every word

I've waited way too long to say
Everything you

I wanna jump in a lake in January
Sneak into a library and sing like a canary
Turn the place where my heart broke into a sanctuary
Right kind of reckless

I wanna keep my joy inside a bottle
Then spill it out for you
And make you smile something awful
Scribble out th

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to qui

You're afraid to need someone
'Cause you've been burned
You've been burned
You've been burned

Love is good until it's gone
That's what you've learned
What you've learned
What you've learned

You don't have to hide your love away, yeah
I know that I'm gonna
