I Might Like You
Back and forth and to and fro
This rhythm flows from my inner soul
I can’t slow down, I can’t suppress
Without it I feel meaningless
Inside, outside, upside down
You’ve got my head spinning round and round
I feel so light, I feel so free.
Could it be? Could it be?
That I might like you
I might like you
I breathe in, I breathe out
My heart just wants to scream and shout
Jump for joy, or do back flips
One thought of you and my mind trips
Through a cloudy mind I reach inside
Throw my courage into overdrive
I try my best to disguise
That I still have butterflies
I might like you
I might like you

Cotton Fields

Cotton Fields
Cotton fields are as white as snow
But not as pure as the love we show
She’s silly and as pretty as can be
Lord only knows why she hangs around me
Oooh, there she goes
Right into these arms of mine
And that suits me just fine
Rooftops and a blanket of stars
You don’t know how wonderful you are
What will happen, we’ll wait and see
Lord only knows why she hangs around me
Oooh, there she goes
Right into these arms of mine
And that suits me just fine
Every day that goes I hope she knows
That when we’re away my love will never stray
She’s my angel, she’s my everything
She’s the one that makes my heart sing
Oooh, there she goes
Right into these arms of mine
And that suits me just fine
Cotton fields are as white as snow
But not as pure as the love we show

As the Crow Flies
What if I said that I wanted to fall
To lose myself and yet gain it all
Would you understand? Would you even care?
I could travel up north by the rule of thumb
March to the beat of my own drum
Would you notice that I was gone?
I could pay my way with this old guitar
Playing street corners and every bar
I don't care how far I go
As the crow flies I'll go
'Cause dreams were made to be followed
But what do I know
What do I know
Sometimes I wonder why I try so hard
To see them stars and those boulevards
When that's not what I want
I just want to have my music heard
Have people singing along with every word I wrote
There more than just words
As the crow flies I'll go
'Cause dreams were made to be followed
But what do I know
What do I know
I'm sick and tired of these pessimistic fools
With all of their standards and social rules
Do they matter in the end?
What about the kids and their dreams
The world brings them down, drowns out their screams
Just to conform and be like the rest
But don't stop this feeling, and don't stop screaming
Don't you dare stop believing
Dreamers, keep on dreaming
But what do I know
What do I know
But what do I know
I'm just a boy with a dream

Mountain Air

Mountain Air
It’s you I declare as I breathe the mountain air
I can see it in your eyes, and you can see it in mine
With the truth laid bare, my hand’s wrapped in your hair
You smile at me
Remember to breathe
Remember me
On mountain tops so high we look at the cloudy sky
You’ve been away for so long
C’mon and say those three words that I adore
And I’ll say I love you more
It’s you I declare as I breathe the mountain air
I can see it in your eyes, and you can see it in mine
I love you, and you love me
That’s all we need
Remember to breathe
Remember me

Break Me

Break Me
Sometimes “I'm sorry” isn't enough
That’s when you ask yourself
"Will I man up?"
And take responsibility
To what I have done
To an innocent heart
Young blood
Bring me to my knees
Make me suffer, break me
Reduce me to nothing.
Cause there's nothing I can say
That will change anything
Break me.
Just like I broke you.
This is for the ones
That were left behind
For those broken inside
Here's to the man
Who's full of remorse
It'll be ok
Learn from mistakes
Bring me to my knees
Make me suffer, break me
Reduce me to nothing
'Cause there's nothing I can say
That will change anything
Break me.
Just like I broke you.
Oh how I wish I could take back what was said
What I did was wrong, and I knew all along and I’m sorry
Bring me to my knees
Make me suffer, break me
Reduce me to nothing
'Cause there's nothing I can say
That will change anything
Break me.
Just like I broke you.

Foggy Glasses
Looking at you through foggy glasses
I hate how time passes by, my oh my
You’re my little sweetie pie
The apple of my eye
You’re the only girl for me
Sometimes I wonder why
I even try to try
Cause you’re too good for me
Cause even if I go insane
Or have a defected brain
I can always go to you
Cause even when my jokes are lame
Or when I’m full of pain
I can always talk to you
Looking at you through foggy glasses
I hate how time passes by, my oh my
Your hand fits better than a glove
You must have been sent from above
You are something else
My first and only love
The only one I think of
Just you and no one else
You are my dearest friend
From beginning to the end
It’s always been you
So I can’t pretend
That I just want to spend
My whole life with you
I want to look at you through my foggy glasses
At forget that time passes by my oh my
I want to see you with your hair in a mess
No make up on, and sleepy dressed
And I’ll tell you that you’re beautiful
I want to make you heart shaped pancakes
And sing songs for you, for heavens sake
I love you, I really do
You’ll always be my sweetie pie
The apple of my eye
You’re the one for me

So I'll Believe

So I’ll Believe
My best friend’s a stranger; my lover’s a ghost
My pride is broken, my heart is the most
Loneliest thing that I ever saw
I can’t stand up to walk so I might as well crawl
Through deserts and mountains, oceans and streams
To try and mend my heart, sew it up at the seams
But stitches will leave a permanent scar,
A constant reminder with every beat of my heart
I want to feel the sunshine
I want to see the spaces between the stars
So I’ll believe that I’m alive
‘Cause I feel dead inside
They say that laughter is all that I need
But I laugh a lot, so can’t you see
That that’s not my problem, that’s not my curse
I believe I’m inflicted with something much worse
It affects the smile, destroys the soul
It can break a heart made of the purest gold
I want to feel the sunshine
I want to see the spaces between the stars
So I’ll believe that I’m alive
‘Cause I feel dead inside

I Wonder

I Wonder
Sitting at the waters edge
We’re skipping stones and throwing bread
To ducks and I hear you say
“It’s a beautiful day”
Laying in the bed of my truck
There’s a shooting star and we gaze up
To the heavens and watch it fly by
It’s a beautiful night.
And I wonder
If it will get better
And I wonder
If it will get better
Here we are we’re at the park
It’s kind of late It’s already dark
But I don’t want to leave,
Without you with me
Trying to make you smile and blush
I say a lot but is it enough for me to let you know
That I love you so
And I wonder
If it will get better
And I wonder
If it will get better
You’re on my mind every night and day
And I can’t find the words to say
To tell you how I feel
Trying to make you smile and blush
I say a lot but is is enough for me to let you know
That I love you so
You’re on my mind every night and day
And I can’t find the words to say
To tell you how I feel
And I wonder
If it will get better
And I wonder
If it will get better

To Whom It May Concern

To Whom It May Concern
Afraid of my reflection
It's a face of shame I see
Full of imperfections
But nobody's perfect, not me
I make my mistakes
And I have my regrets
I've done many things
And I'm not quite done yet
Well you know me better than I do
So you know how stubborn I can be
I want you know everything
Take me as I am
'Cause I will never change
I won't bend or break
Only 18
And I feel so old
With a past as a shadow
That follows me wherever I go
I have my fears
And I have my doubts
I've done many things
And I'm not quite done yet
Well you know me better than I do
So you know what a jerk I can be
I want you to know everything
Take me as I am
'Cause I will never change
I won't bend or break
Well you know me better than I do
So you know what I've done
I guess you know everything
And still you take me as I am
For you I would change
I would bend and break
For you

Solace
Sing, sing, sing a song for me she says, she says, she says.
She says sing; sing a song for me
But do you listen to my words; do you listen to my words?
Do you hear me, as I sing?
One two three c’mon and fly with me to the highest heights
We’ll see the stars, see the lights, and I’ll sing for you.
Dance, dance, dance with me she says, she says, she says.
Dance, c’mon and dance with me.
Hear the rhythm, feel the beat. Clap your hands, and stomp your feet
C’mon baby and dance with me
One two three c’mon and fly with me to the highest heights
We’ll see the stars, see the lights, and I’ll dance with you.
One two three and you’re here with me it’s a perfect night
We watched the stars, saw the lights, and I held you close
Oh what I’d do just to look at you, see you smile again
Laugh at my jokes and laugh at me
Oh, fly with me
