Baby
Now I can tell you my secret
Don't turn around you might miss it
Graceful and proud like a sunset

Baby
I'm scared to let go if you're leaving
All that we see isn't bleeding
Hard to believe it was worth it

Baby
You took my heart I was sleeping
Now I don't know I was losing
I didn't make reminiscing

Wake up
Wake up
This is only a dream

. . .


We can make plans
I'll give all I can
You were my man
On the gold coast sand

You can go to New Orleans
Take the river front-line
But don't leave my mind

You can go each day takes you
Some place I can't find
But don't leave my mind

We can break plans
I'll keep all I can
You'll be my friend
And start over again

And you can go to New York City
Get a place on the east side
But don’t leave my mind

And you can go where no one knows you
Where the winter is kind
But don’t leave my mind

Ohhh

And you can go I can't find you
There's no space, there's no time
But don't leave my mind
Don't leave my mind
Don't leave my mind

. . .


When the hour is late
And all is lost to find
Nothing more can absolve
Can find its way out tonight

To find you

I see mist like ghosts
Over long these country roads
They part their ways for me
As I search for my love

For you
For you

Good love
I tell my my song to find you
To find you
To find you
Find you

. . .


It could have been a patch
Some say that it was cursed
You spent your whole life
Trying to wash away the dirt

They said that you were nothing
With the hands under your skirt
So you taught yourself a way
with a rag under your shirt

Oh Larraine

Your daddy loved you wrong
While you planted his gun
Your mother turned her face
Being princess of grace

Oh Larraine

They left you in the woods
To find your way back like a dog
You cried in the dark
While they drank beers on the lawn

Oh Larraine

The nightmares wouldn't stop
So you drink them to a haze
But when you cut the lines
They put you away

You had a little girl
Who had songs about your pain
An episode of grace
Now she's living in L.A.

Oh Larraine
Oh Larraine

Most of them I never knew
But that is just as well
Even as I cry for you
I know they're all in hell

Oh Larraine

Don't you know it was all for you, Larraine
Everything I did was for you, Loarraine
Cause what they did to you they did to me

. . .


There was wonder underneath the quilted sky
Did we stand too close to see the seams at night

Can we keep it light
Constant hands of time
Creeping in too soon

I counted 37 signs
It's probably just my mind
What it likes to do

Were they out there
Were they out there

And if I could give this a shot
Could you a safe to place our trust into

We were their dumbs of bad bad timing
All these reminders like the pink sun rising

Can we keep it light
Constant hands of time
Creeping in too soon

I counted 37 signs
It's probably just my mind
What it likes to do

Were they out there
Were they out there

And if I could give this a shot
Could you a safe to place our trust into

Cause I have been lied to
And I have been made a fool
And I would give this a shot
If you would too
If you would too

And I'll go on and on again
on and on again
on and on and on

And I'll go on and on again
on and on again
on and on and on

And I'll go on and on again
on and on again
on and on and on

And I'll go on and on again
on and on again
on and on and on

. . .


If I can make your heart
Feel always loved
I would give my whole world up
For you to feel always loved

If I can make your heart
Feel always joy
I would walk a thousand miles
For you to feel always joy

If I could make your heart
Feel always loved
I'd give my whole world up
For you to feel always loved

If I can make your heart
If I can make your heart

. . .


Sea shining waves
Silver sorrow
Come tomorrow
I'll be out of here

It's easy as it came
It's tough to swallow
That it's gone, gone, gone,
Gone, gone, gone, gone

Feel the sting of time right to your heart
Every turn you try a brand new start
See the strangers and the strange way you share
Some of none they ever had

Crown me queen
In the valley of the fire
Soft desire
Drawing down the moon
Fool to complain
It won't get better
Till you surrender
All your main games

Feel the sting of time right to your heart
Every turn you try a brand new start
See the strangers and the strange way you share
When you do, you do the best that we can
What we do, we do the best that we can

. . .


I'm a little worried
That I killed something inside of me
When I let you go

Days were dark with you in my mind
I thought it best to be free

And now the birds don't sing
And the trees don't speak
And I don't see signs in the leaves
Anymore

I'm a little worried
That I killed something inside of me
When I let you go

It's a stranger's eyes that won't meet mine.
There's nothing left there to divide

'Cause the birds don't sing
And the trees don't speak to me
And I don't see signs in the leaves
Anymore

I'm a little worried
I'm a little worried
That I killed something inside of me
When I let you go
When I let you go
When I let you go

. . .


Oh I wanted love and permanence
You wanted the night
When the stars fell to their death

And now I'm in the city
Where the lights burn so bright
That I don't have to see them ever again
But I miss them

I know it breaks their hearts
Oh, just how far I had to go

From this place I came from
Darkness illuminated one
Our eyes missed a terrible love pass away
Assuring you things

So break my heart
Oh break my heart
Oh break my heart
Oh break my heart again

Oh break my heart
Oh break my heart
Oh break my heart
Oh break my heart again

So that I might see

. . .


Young girl by your side
She asks no questions
So you don't lie

How effortless it can be
She feels lucky
And you are free

Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you that way
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you still
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you that way
You that way, you that way

Now it's meant to use
Do they know you still come here
Day gives into night
And I'm guilty of wanting light

Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved me that way
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved me still
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved me that way
Me that way, me that way

Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you that way
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you still
Shouldn't have loved
Shouldn't have loved you that way
You that way, you that way
You that way

. . .


This first winter
I can't pretend that I didn't know what you were
When you walked into my door

These hours that I stare into a lantern red
I hear the train at night give promises of light

Was I loved enough
To believe in us
Silhouettes
Dancing ghosts

As that goes through my mind
Falling far behind
I knew it would end this way
But I chose it anyway

Was I taken up
To your empty god
Your haunted voice
Singing ghost

If you think of me
Since spotting memory
Just don't, don't

Ooh

Was I lost enough
To believe in us
Silhouettes dancing

Was I taken up
To your empty god
Your haunted voice
Singing

If you think of me
Since spotting memory
Silhouettes dancing
Silhouettes dancing
Ghosts

. . .


Sinking eyes
Heavy spirit, your drifting mind
Weave the middle of the passing time
Hoping we would never show it

So these words from your mouth
I thought I was strong until my strength wore out
I was chasing this shadow's end
I didn't create it

It was long long long enough
I lost sight of what it's worth
It was long long long enough

Do you want to be named
In the end as a hunter or game
You're hurt or your hurt is the same
There's still part of me tired

And where have you been
Did you look did you take it all in
Are you walking in circles again
Like you lost the horizon

It was long long long enough
I was lost in a flash of light
It was long long long enough

Long long long enough
