Get What You Ask For

Hold onto this
Through to the other side
Were you lost
Or full of insane love?
Don’t say lost
You’re so loved
Were you the one
Who came to me and said, love
You are the sun ☀️
Rising across my heart
And so lovely,
Precious melody
Rise up golden light
All alone, all your own
Your light
Calm my soul
Bring me home
In your eyes, hope rewrites
Brings to life
Trust in a friend
Still want to be sad?
You are so loved
Holy glove, sweet from the mountain
High above
And I’ll sleep when I’m tired
Still when I’m sound
Will you still make a sound?

Green Ribbon
02:35
|

I spent my hope and packed up my guitars
And tied my neck
In a green ribbon
We broke down watching stories
Where we thought the world would end
But then it didn’t
Oh where do we go now?
Can’t someone tell me how
we even came this far
Just to wonder who we are?
But I’ll be there to catch you
where you land
Where no one would understand
But we understand
Yeah we understand
So I released the fear
I had been harboring for years
And now it’s out there
I never grew out of that phase
Where I would disappear for days
Into thin air
And I’ll be there to catch you
where you land
Where no one would understand
And we don't have a plan
But we understand
Yeah we understand

Happy For You
03:15
|

Spend my time alone
With my mind spinning all around
Giving what I’ve got
And it feels like not enough
You’ve got
what I left behind
So why should I miss
what isn’t mine?
After all this time alone
Have I found what I have had
After all this time away
Have I found I had it all
And after all this time alone
Have I found I had a friend
After all?
Open up the door
And I’m on to a greater world
Filling up my cup
And I’m happier than I was
I’m so happy for you
I want nothing from you
I’m so happy for you
I want nothing from you
After all this time alone
Have I found what I have had
After all this time away
Have I found I had it all
And after all this time alone
Have I found I had a friend
After all?

Silver Fox
03:44
|
|||
|
We’ve got to hold on
Take care of what we’ve got
I’ve got to hold on, treat this spirit/body right
I never knew my life would be so long
It’s a miracle that I'm still hanging on
It’s a beautiful gift to live so long
I will become the order of the silver fox

What It's Worth
05:46
|
|||
|
Three shining lights above our heads
We carry songs and instruments
I’m already feeling so exposed
So high, alive and desperate
We believe in darkness
Such illusions held so dear
How we live and breath the night
And hold it in our hearts
We stay out drinking with our friends
Making up ends to meet the ends
Tie these laces up so tight tonight
And hope for better days
Darken up my eyes
It’s no disingenuous disguise
If I could sleep maybe I’d keep
Some semblance of my own mind
You have my everything
For whatever that’s worth
Outside is inside
My heart surrounds the earth
These broken dreams
Lie in pieces around me
Never had a doubt about it
Until the final cry
Everything I’ve done for you
Cast into an endless void
All my grief and sorrows
Are wind upon the the sea
Are wind upon the the sea
Are wind upon the the sea

Letting Go
05:03
|

|
I am still
While the world moves around me
I am rooted into the earth
Higher reaching for the sun
All is all and I am nothing
