01. Extraordinary

I was a daydream
Quiet and unseen
I lived in stories
But inside I kept a mystery
I was a starling
Nobody’s darling
Flying in perfect circles
Just for company

CHORUS:
And now I’m ready
And now I’m ready
And now I’m ready to be
Extraordinary
A midnight airplane
A window glowing
I know I am another
Sparkle in the sky
I shine uncovered
Still undiscovered
But you might see me in the corner of your eye

CHORUS
Waking up to a week of Sundays
I’ve got my own parade
Stopping off at a sidewalk café
Wind is playing in the trees
Kicking up confetti leaves
Seems as if it’s all to say
CHORUS:

02. All Good Things

All good things
All good things
All good things
Not sure where to go
Everybody I know
Says I’m too forgiving
And now that I’m gone
I don’t want to move on
I just keep reliving

CHORUS:
All good things
Oh I wish you
All good things come to an end
All good things
Oh I wish you well
Lost inside of my head
Empty side of the bed
I feel this place without you
I keep pushing this bruise
’Cause I don’t wanna lose
What I loved about you

CHORUS:
I can think of a million ways
You proved you weren’t the one
So live inside of your shades of grey
And never mind the sunshine
That I’ll find
I got so much space now
I got a whole house with the wind blowing through
I don’t need somewhere to hide
I’ve got this whole world inside
I was accustomed to showing you

03. Slummin' In Paradise

I’m a long way off
But I’m still around
Sitting on the couch
I’m watching you
And if I take my time
All the others give in
You still feel like you’re standing in line
I just know that you’re worth the wait
It’s of no concern
It’s a risk I’d gladly take
From time to time

CHORUS:
Don’t worry about yourself at all
I’ll hang your work up on my wall
Hose you down and dress you up real nice
With some brand new plans and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar
’Cause you can tell the story of your life
Without slummin’ in paradise
I wonder how you feel
Or do I?
Standing on the corner
How’s your view?
From the other side
Mr. Right
Its not a pretty sight alone
CHORUS:
You wont often see this letter
Handed over right away
I know the first time I found you wonderful

04.Most Of Me

I’m not ready to confront
I’d rather cement my words this way
This could be the easy road out
But I’m just not all that happy
So I’m writing all this down
And I’ll file it in a drawer someday
In lieu of a conversation
We’d probably forget to have anyway

CHORUS:
I won’t hold anything back
And I won’t hold anything in
Feel like I know where this is going
And I might know how it ends
But I’m still
Willing to begin
You should know my story by now
And why I’m optimistic cautiously
I understand it’s not your fault
But I’m not takin’ anything back
You still end up with
Most of me
CHORUS
I expect you to fly from NY to LA
And land on my doorstep
And smile at me and say
It was worth it to see most of me
Do you love most of me?
You’re just crossing paths
With the way he left me
I’m not sayin’ a word
But I’m watching you quietly
You’re gonna have to prove me wrong
Before I know this is right
We don’t have to decide tonight
Just wait for me patiently
And you’ll get all of me
CHORUS

05. Few Days Dowm

It’s a take-out weekend
It’s a fake-out smile and pretend
If nobody sees you cry
You can say it was raining outside

CHORUS:
And all that you want
Is a few days down
All that you need
A little time to drown
It’s to be expected
With all the weight you carry ‘round
All that you want is
A Few Days Down
It’s a short vacation
To a foreign nation
Oh, nothing familiar here
Just you and your lonesome heart complaining
CHORUS:
I’m looking out
Ten stories high
And like a blanket lifted
The quiet night
The city finally waking up
To the morning light
CHORUS:

06. Can't You Just Adore Her?

She likes chocolate in the morning
She drinks her coffee late at night
You can sense that she is guarded
But that’s alright
She’ll fall asleep while your still talking
With unfinished books beside her bed
She’ll cancel all of her appointments
And go shopping instead

CHORUS:
And in spite of what is right
Far beyond what she’d except
When the moon begs the question
Will you have the answer yet?
Can’t you just adore her?
Can’t you just adore her?
She loves to watch the sunset
But she is partial to the rain
With those tears and that umbrella
Her allure goes unexplained
You made dinner in your apartment
You both assume that she’ll be late
She always has the best intentions
Her goodness is innate
CHORUS:
And in spite of what is right
Far beyond what she’d except
When the moon begs the question
Will you have the answer yet
Can’t you just adore her?
Can’t you just adore her?
Why can’t you just adore her?
I like chocolate in the morning
I drink my coffee late at night

07. Looking Forward To Looking Back

Drove to your house in the hills
Where I wanted to be
The lights were all on
And I knew you were waiting for me
And that road became familiar
Like the mystery shape of your heart

CHORUS:
And I know you loved me in your way
I’m looking forward to looking back on these days
I’m fine
But I’m not okay
I’m looking forward to looking back on these days
The fog in the morning clouded the world that we knew
It was almost enough being lonely and living for you
And the rain came to our window
And I wish I could’ve stayed
And I know you loved me in your way
CHORUS
Let it go
Let it go sunshine
Now you know
Now you know its time
It’s time
You were asleep while I gathered my things in the dark
The burns on my fingers were all that was left of the spark
Didn’t want to wake you
‘Cause I knew I couldn’t say
That I knew you loved me in your way

08.Wild Hope

In the crazy world
Anything can happen
If you will it to
I’m just a hazy girl
Blurring all the edges
Only seeing blue

CHORUS:
It’s a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright
Lost inside
A painting of a city on a hotel wall
Days goes by
Wasting golden hours in the fall
CHORUS:
I catch a glimpse of our reflection
Beside you I see myself
We are the season’s new collection
We look like everybody else
Walk alone
Through the crowded streets into the fading grey
Here and gone
Like a decoration for the holiday
CHORUS:

09. Nothing That You Are

Somebody told me
They saw you somewhere
Somebody hold me
‘Cause suddenly I’m in the cold
Well I must be mistaken
It was somebody else
I know you all too well
Or do I?

CHORUS:
I heard you say
We were one and the same
Well, wrong again
I could never do those things you did to me
I will be okay
In time you’ll fade
Into the nothing that you are
The nothing you are.
Somebody sold me
The same old story
Hadn’t you told me
You were there the whole time
Well I must be mistaken
You were somebody else
I hope you burn in hell
Or do I?
CHORUS
Hey, your mistakes will haunt you down
Eventually
You know that when you hit the ground
Your weakness did you in
And dealt me out
It’s ok, I have the truth on my side

10.Latest Mistake

There is part of me that wants an answer
And part of me that doesn’t want to know
Part of you that I am in love with
And the part that I am willing to let go
This is a delicate unraveling
Now and then I find pieces on the floor
Tiny little bits that tell me
Maybe I shouldn’t do this
Or love you anymore
Someone’s gonna have to fess up
Someone’s gonna have to clean this mess up

CHORUS:
’Cause I wanted you the first time
And I loved you from the second
And I don’t know how that ever goes away
As far as I can tell
You’re really good at talking
So I think its time you let me know
I’m just your latest mistake
I wonder what will make you happy
I wonder what you’ll do with it all
I have a map in my head
Somehow still don’t understand
Why I always have to miss you
Why I have to make the call
Someone’s gonna have to step up
Someone’s gonna have to clean this mess up
CHORUS:
Before you drive me away
Take a good look at me, baby
Picture me not lying on your couch
Well, I wish the best for you
Everytime you go thru this
Before you finally figure it out
CHORUS:

11. Ladies Choice

You did everything
I asked you not to
Look where it got you
I’m sure
You heard it before
How could you?
Baby, why would you?

CHORUS:
Goodbye, sweetheart
Countdown started
Words are heavy
But I’m far from broken hearted
Goodbye stranger
I’ll take the fall
Lies were tempting
You know you never really threw me off at all
Go ahead
Waste your time
Count me out
Take your place at the end of the line
Raise a glass
No surprise
Here’s to us at the end of the line (oh)
Here’s to us at the end of the line
I’ll miss the version of you
Who loved me
And all that they don’t see
You said you could be good
Somehow you’re guilty
And you’re not even sorry

CHORUS:

12. Gardenia

IWell, I put so much thought into getting ready
Now I know that was the best part
It’s so easy to get caught up in what I’m regretting
Forget what I got from a wounded heart

CHORUS:
I’m the one who likes Gardenia
I’m the one who likes to make love on the floor
I don’t want to hang up the phone yet
It’s been good
Getting to know me more
I’ve been seeing all my old friends in the city
Walking alone in Central Park
Doing all the things that I’ve neglected
Traded ‘em all in
To be in your arms
CHORUS:
Well, I hear my own voice
Sounds so silly
Keep on telling my story all around
Everything I lost seems so different
Well, this is how everybody gets found

B-SIDES

01. Changed My Mind

An unexpected phone call in an open afternoon
I knew I’d love to get to know you
But I thought it was too soon
Deep in conversation I discovered so much more
Than what I ever had expected on the way to bein’ sure

CHORUS:
I was alright
I was gonna take my time
’Til you turned around and changed my mind
Something in the way you laughed
That I could not resist
I had giving in my eyes
But “no” was on my list
Sat on the edge that night
While I tried to explain
Well, I remembered I was crying
My love is just the same
CHORUS:
I guess I never put up a very big fight
’Cause you won’t have much trouble, baby
Convincing me tonight
Lay right down beside me
And try to make me smile
You know that part is easy
It’s the trust that took a while
I see the world in every color
And now that I’ve seen blue
The change in me is subtle
But it was long overdue
CHORUS:

02. Could Have Been Watching You

I’ve seen the shadows casting the spells
Sunlight was flashing on somebody else
When I could have spent this whole night
Watching you
I’ve not seen the city so down in the rain
Still I can find an excuse to complain
When I could have spent these hours
Watching you

CHORUS:
I keep on waiting for someone to save me
From wasting the life that I knew
I open my eyes and…
I could have been watching you
I’ve seen the sadness that you’ve always known
I’m falling apart when I’m sleeping alone
And I could have spent this whole night watching you
I keep on waiting for someone to save me
From wasting the life that I knew
I open my eyes and…
I could have been watching you
I’ve not seen the sketch of myself redefined
I’ve never acknowledged what I left behind
And I could have spent my whole life watching you
CHORUS:

03. Swept Away

Tried to find one more moment
Before we open our eyes
Give me something more form this ocean
That kiss that we don’t have to hide
I hold you away a hand to my heart
Wildly cautious and still
I’m swept away
You allow me your sweet surrender
You’re a page of old poetry
That I may have never discovered
But you read it like it was waiting for me
You smile with your eyes
Before it reaches your mouth
Wildly guarded and still

CHORUS:
I’m swept away
Like a stone that gets lost in the tide
Swept away
And I’m fighting to stay on your side
One night I’m fine and then you call and I cave
I’m just swept away
Take your hand with immediate comfort
Took your friendship right to my arms
Caught up in that feeling I’ve searched for
And I hardly know who you are
(DON’T KNOW THIS LINE)
Trying so hard to stand still
CHORUS:
I’m a sensitive ….
And the weight of your words carry just what I need to hear
My questions are starting to settle
And the ocean is calm once again

04. Shades

Where do I go from here?
I’m feeling a little hollow
You got any old ideas
You’re not using?
I’ll bring ‘em right back
I guess it should be unclear
No need to force tomorrow
Drowning in all we fear And maybe losing
The only way home
I’m scared of finding out that
Every body falls
And I can barely see the writing on my wall
But if I look at all
I’ll be wearing shades
I hope you enjoy my film I want you to feel my sorrow
I try to be real sincere
In the movies
And here’s the ending…
I finally found it out
He was lying to us all
Right between the eyes
And everybody falls
But me I’m standing tall
‘’Cause I was wearing shades
In the square I sit with music
All alone
If I could use their words to show
I’d will the phone to ring
I wanna sing a love song
Make a face and maybe put my rock stars on
I’ll see you at the show
And I’ll be wearing shades

05. Never Again

I thought you loved me too much
Sorry, my mistake
And to think I gave you all I had to give
For a “see you round” and “thanks for nothing”
Never Again
If they’re all like you
Then I’ll be by myself
Like a damn fool
I believed you
And I would have ‘til the end
Never again
I guess you kept me around
To have and eat your cake
And I know you’re somewhere laughing in your head
Bout how you kept me hidden from the truth
No, no, no ,no…
Never again
If they’re all like you
Then I’ll be by myself
I tried to save you
It’s a shame you hate yourself
Never again
It was only you
There was no one else
Like a damn fool
I believed you
And I would have til the end
Don’t pretend there might be a someday
Unlike you, Im the one exception to the rule…
CHORUS:
