Nighthouse
05:00

Verse 1
We were sunken ships in the cushions of your couch
reluctant to abandon that boarded lighthouse
The nights grew darker once our light bulb burned out
and now we're residing in a rundown nighthouse
Chorus
And I stand by our bedroom door, not welcome anymore
You let me in then sleep on the floor
So I curl up and pray in the bed of sin we made,
begging for a way, to break out of this haunted nighthouse
Verse 2
There's an ocean raging outside of closed blinds over my eyes
and they won't open when your lips are pressed against mine
Oh, I can't live in this somber room without sunlight
If you close the curtains I'll have my bags packed by night
Chorus
And I stand by our bedroom door, not welcome anymore
You let me in then choose to ignore
How I curl up and pray in this bed so afraid,
we'll never find a way to breakdown the walls of this house
Bridge
Let me out of the dark, of the dark
He washes up to me like high tide onto shore
and ev'ry time he leaves I dry up thirsting for more
So crash down over me you can soak into my sandy pores
We'll never be at peace if your at sea and I'm onshore
Tag
Tear down the bars and fix our broken light
A beacon of hope could save this haunted site
and guide us through the night,
through the night
Ending Verse
But I won't stay here with your weary ghost
On the nightstand, I left a note
and in the morning that ferry horn will blow
but as it wakes you, I'll be on the next boat

FOR SALE
03:54
|

|
Verse 1
I was swinging on my closed-in porch watching the rain,
rocking back and forth, when a trailer backed in your driveway
I've seen the FOR SALE sign camped out your front lawn
I just never thought you'd leave that house and move on
Chorus
Did you find a letter on your porch last week?
It's under your doormat by the spare key
'cause I need an answer before you leave tonight
by my bright front porch light
Verse 2
It's pouring down too hard to go outside
so climb up creaky stairs to the attic in your mind
and go through old boxes logically packed away
You might come across some reasons to stay
Chorus
If you find my letter that I left last week
make sure you respond right before you leave
'cause I'll be waiting for you across the street tonight
by my bright front porch light
Bridge
I just wrote to tell you that I"m doing okay
and if you come over it's never too late
The rain's supposed to slow down sometime tonight around 10
There's still time to talk and start over again
Down Chorus
When you lock your front door before you leave
look over your shoulder across the street
'Cause if you decide to stay in town tonight
I'll wait by my bright porch light
I just wrote to tell you that I'm okay
and if you come over I will light the way

Never Never Land
04:21
|
|||
|
Verse 1
I leave a lamp on by the window
so you can see that I'm still home
patiently knitting in my rocking chair
waiting up for you to care
Did you ever care?
Chorus
Fly away into Never Never Land
must be content living in ignorance
Oh, Peter Pan, here I am
It's late at night and I can't fall
asleep alone tonight
Verse 2
I could freeze leaving my window cracked,
waiting on a boy might never come back
A chilling breeze blows in falling snow
and you stay out and play while I grow old
in this bitter cold
Chorus
So, fly away into Never Never Land
and get lost in your own ignorance
Oh, Peter Pan, I need a man
It's almost light and you're not here
so I might close my eyes
Bridge
You and I forever, growing old together,
rocking on our front porch watching the sun go down
Please tell me what just happened
everything was so perfect
You and I forever, growing old together,
rocking on our front porch watching the sun go down
Please tell me what just happened
everything was so perfect
You were perfect
I turned my lamp off by the window
so you can see no one is home

Peter Pan's Verse
The lamp is turned off by your window
and it looks like nobody's home
Why aren't you rocking in your chair?
I just went out for some air
Are you even there anymore?
Peter Pan's Chorus
Did you think I would never land?
Did you think I'm the type of man
to leave you?
No, that wouldn't be fair
Wendy Darling, don't you know I care
Wendy's Verse
I had a dream you flew in last night
You showed up when I closed my eyes
Peter Pan
I'm out here looking through your window
Please, don't leave me standing in the snow
This morning's cold without you
Peter Pan's Chorus (Wendy echoes)
Did you think (I thought you would never land)
Did you think (I thought your the type of man)
to leave you (you left me)
Growing old and (it wasn't fair)
You're a woman that needs (I need to know you care)
Peter Pan's Bridge
Don't you know me better?
I needed time to come around
Wendy
You were gone forever
How was I to know you'd come down
from the clouds?
Peter Pan
I just needed time away
Wendy
I needed you to stay
Peter Pan
Please, try to understand
Wendy
You are years too late
Wendy's Chorus
Did you think time would stop?
You'd return, and turn back the clock?
Look around, so much has changed
I've grown up since then
and you haven't aged
Wendy's Chorus (Peter Pan echoes)
Did you think (I thought time would stop)
You'd return (I'm right here, let's turn back the clock)
Look around (I'm aware)
So much has (I'm to blame)
I've grown up since then (I promise I've changed)
Did you think (I thought time would stop)
You'd return (I'm right here, let's turn back the clock)
Look around (I'm aware)
So much has (I'm to blame)
I've grown up since then (I promise I've changed)
