Sold my heart for some nicotine
Prettiest girl I’d ever seen, it was you
Oh yeah, it was you
Hangin out under the marquee
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
We were cool
Oh man, we were cool
Wheels of time were turning
And the hearts of the young keep on burning
Oh the wheels of time keep on turning
And I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you
We were only 17
Summertime full of dreams, it was you
Oh yeah, it was you
Underneath that old oak tree
Stealing kisses, you and me, we were cool
Oh yeah, we were cool
Wheels of time were turning
And the hearts of the young keep on burning
Oh the wheels of time keep on turning
And I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you
And I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you
Think about that old oak tree
I can still see you smile
I don’t smoke anymore
But my chest can feel the fire
Summertime brings me back to you
And the feel of your skin
Knowin’ what I know now I’m older
And lovin’ where I’ve been
Wheels of time were turning
And the hearts of the young keep on burning
Oh the wheels of time keep on turning
And I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you
And I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you
Oh, and I’ll just keep on, keep on,
Keep on loving you

Ain't Your Lover

I’ve had time to get it right
But I love what is wrong
Lord help me, help me, please
Hotel rooms and bathroom stalls
Are what I want, ain’t life a dream?
Or so it seems
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Not your friend
Not your friend
Stealing shoes and breaking tags
Thievin’ around ain’t so bad
When I’m with you
When I’m with you
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Not your friend
Not your friend
Praying to god for my sins
When I get to heaven,
Will he let me in?
I don’t know, but I hope
Beginning again (Hey!)
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Beginning again
I ain’t your lover
No, I’m not your friend
Not your friend
Not your friend

Don't Push Me Out
05:08
|
|||
|
Afraid we won’t be enough to keep drowning out
All of my fears and all of my doubts
You want communion with miles between us
I want weakness that makes a new us
But I’m not running for once in my life
Words so thin you could blow them over
Hearts so weak while we call ourselves lovers
A breach in my confidence
A wall before your throne
Don’t push me out
Don’t push me out
Got nothing but truth for every lie you hold close
It’s getting hard to speak
Still I love you the most
Thought I could blind you, change your mind, steal your breath
You keep walking backwards and it’s me you forget
But I’m not running for once in my life
I’m sticking it out, can’t say I won’t try
Words so thin you could blow them over
Hearts so weak while we call ourselves lovers
A breach in my confidence
A wall before your throne
Don’t push me out
Don’t push me out
You caught me screaming for the first time in my head
I’m calling you out, do you see me yet?
You caught me screaming for the last time in my head
You’re calling me now, do you miss me yet?
Words so thin you could blow them over
Hearts so weak while we call ourselves lovers
A breach in my confidence
A wall before your throne
Don’t push me out
Don’t push me out
Don’t push me out
Don’t push me out

Half Guided Heart
03:33
|

|
You wanted a shiny life
But they could never give you what felt right
Trying so hard to be
something that can be seen through the rain, the rain
Your half guided heart knows the truth
You can’t breathe
So take your feet and walk away
Even if you have to leave
You needed an open door
But empty pockets and sunsets
Don’t pay for you to soar
It’s not right, life ain’t fair
All the moments you never shared
You never shared
Your half guided heart knows the truth
You can’t breathe
So take your feet and walk away
Even if you have to leave
Your half guided heart knows the truth
You can’t breathe
So take your feet and walk away
Even if you have to leave

Summer Nights
02:48
|

|
Your dress has never been so short
My hair has never been so long
See your face in my kaleidoscope
Strawberry lips singin’ a song
The night is young
While we’re getting too old for this
We dance around just like little kids
Summer nights still get a hold of me
When I’m lookin’ at you, I’m young again
On these summer nights, young again
Sunshades and sno-cones by the pool
The sidewalks are too hot for your feet
You’re scared of the diving board
But then you jump off with me
The night is young
While we’re getting too old for this
We dance around just like little kids
Summer nights still get a hold of me
When I’m lookin’ at you, I’m young again
On these summer nights, young again
What I know is true
When we are alone
It’s not just these summer nights
Makin’ me feel so young
The night is young
While we’re getting too old for this
We dance around just like little kids
Summer nights still get a hold of me
When I’m lookin’ at you, I’m young again
On these summer nights, young again
