Borrow My Love

New seasons chill my bones and I know that you are gone
Our paths have met the end, the love we had felt wrong
So now, I look to the west, out into the storm
I know this is not pretend, the comfort I had is gone
Cut loose from a bundle of joy, so I reach for my favorite toy (Oh boy)
Down here in the valley of sorrow, you can borrow my love
Old feelings haunt my soul and wonder why you’ve gone
Our paths have met the end, the love we had felt wrong
So now, I look to the west, out into the storm
I know this is not pretend, the comfort I had is gone
Cut loose from a bundle of joy, so I reach for my favorite toy (Oh boy)
Down here in the valley of sorrow, you can borrow my love
Every day, you fade away, and my heart grows cold
Every day, you fade away, and my heart grows cold
But you can borrow my love

The Note
04:11

All you left was a note – a letter you wrote that read, “I’ll always be there in your heart.”
All the colors you wore – were the shade of your soul, and more: they always told me I was home.
If you told me to follow,
I’d go without asking.
You said meet me in the hollow,
Where you told me we were best friends,
And I still pretend.
All you had was a dream – it came in between our love. Reality was enough – for you.
Abandoned hope in a note – the letters you write spelled love, but I’ll always remember,
The sound of the thud of ya dropping your bag on the…
You said please don’t follow,
It’s all you were askin’.
You wrote I’ll always love you,
It’s just the time that needs passin.’
When you’re back, I’ll be gone,
Like the love – that you left behind.
If this ain’t worth saving then I won’t be waiting for a sad soul whose searching ain’t done.

You, Me, The Ocean
04:59

Headed out east on the L.I.E., L-I-E, lie to me
Feels like I’m almost there, but I’m an hour forty-five away (hey)
Daddies with their Audis and the mommies with their bodies
and their kids are born in to this life of luxury
I’m only driving through, I ain’t stoppin’ at Dolce and Gabana (hey momma)
There’s one thing on my mind and it’s the girl from last summer
She took my heart away and she traded for another
I’m gunna win ‘er back, this time out here in Montauk
You never wrote me a love song, but you played out every night
The salt of your lips was licked off, before I could even (whatever) try
(Try) whatever forget it, you changed like the weather, you pulled out like a riptide
Your heart felt good at the time
Pull up to my buddy’s and they’re jammin’ with a mission
Already rollin’ doobies, drinking beers in the kitchen
But my only ambition, is finding that love from before
My friends don’t notice I leave and head to town
To the coffee shop she played at, what a lovely sound
She was singing to me only ‘bout lovin’ me later on the beach
Now I see her playin’ for a different kinda man
And there’s a ring on ‘er finger and I got no chance
She never looks my way, she don’t feel the same way about last summer
You never wrote me a love song, but you played out every night
The salt of your lips was licked off, before I could even (whatever) try
(Try) whatever forget it, you changed like the weather, you pulled out like a riptide
Your heart felt good
But it was burning like a pile of driftwood
And your hands were cold
Even with the summer’s warmth
But you blew away, like a pile of ashes
Since the night we kissed down by the shore
Your heart felt good at the time
Make love, take drugs, all night, alright
Let go, don’t go, you know the fire’s burning bright,
Hold me, console me, tell me everything’s gunna be al – (you, me) right
(-right) You, me, the ocean and a bottle of rum tonight
You, me, the ocean and a bottle of rum tonight

Rendezvous Time
03:05

I can’t stop thinking about you,
All I want is to be with you,
Take me back to all the good times,
I was yours and you were mine.
Leave me peacefully,
All I needed was time.
I don’t mean to seem like I don’t care,
I looked back to see you were standing there,
All of our dreams, they ended with one kiss,
Did it all have to turn out like this?
Teach me how to breathe,
After losin’ you.
All I wanted was seein’ you smilin’,
The dreams we had were truly shinin’,
All we got out was screamin’ ‘n’ fightin’,
Our love was a bundle of thunder and lightnin’;
Hearing you ain’t sleepin’, you’re doin’ real bad now,
My thoughts are turnin’ back to the love we had now,
I think of us together then snap back to reality,
I’m sorry you’re feelin’ down.
I was doin’ fine, I was on your mind,
Didn’t think you were needin’ me,
I was stupid enough to believe in love,
Ooooooh.
I can’t stop (thinkin’ about you),
I can’t stop (thinkin’ about you),
Rendezvous time, time,
Rendezvous time, time.
I was doin’ fine, I was on your mind,
Didn’t think you were needin’ me,
I was stupid enough to believe in love,
Ooooooh.
I can’t stop thinking about you,
All I want is to be with you,
Take me back to all the good times,
I was yours and you were mine.

Slipped Your Mind
03:24

You took me back to young again, and I loved you then
And you called me friend, like it would never end
Now that I’m older looking back, I don’t blame your soul
You were out of control, it was your youth I stole
You never told me you were mine
And I’ve been waiting all this time
But you helped me see, what it means to be
Just another one that slipped your mind
You said what you meant then in the end, you didn’t take it back
And I wish you had, but I was just as bad
Brought up some things from long ago, from before we’d met
To whose benefit? That was the start and end of it
You never told me you were mine
And I’ve been wasting all this time
But I hope you see, what it means to be
Just another one that slipped your mind

Sit With Me

My son, I’d like to sit you down and tell you what I know
Not far away’s a barren land that used to be our home
By now you have grown old enough, it’s time for you to go
So loyal son, sit with me, I’ll tell you what I know
My father took me, old as you, down paths that had no end
Ever-winding and reminding him of fields turned sand
Memories of love and pride and home, they seemed to rend
Then after several days of travel, we stood before a desert without end

Laying In The Grass

Laying in the grass all day, all he had to do was play
Until he grew old enough to say, “Father, put me to work
I truly want to know my worth, on this gracious, giving earth.”
I love to listen to all the stories my father told
His father taught him how to work, enjoy a life of love and worth
All the while sharing mirth, he said, “Father, you’ve given me wealth
As soon as I have a son as well, I’ll share with him the stories you’d tell
I love to listen to all the stories my father told

In My Heart

You were there, you were there right from the start
I could feel, I could feel, feel it in my heart
All the times, all the times that I fell down
You picked me up, picked me up
You were there, you were there right from the start
I could feel, I could feel, feel it in my heart
All the times, all the times that I fell down
You picked me up

Dogs

Sometimes we find the strength inside when walking through the dark
When our demons think we are done
Chasing you is nothing new, it's the things you've done that came from nowhere like love
But born from the absence of
Love is never gone
It goes on, and on, and on
Wars are never won
A different song is sung
When the fighting's done
Shelter me in your arms till we're gone
I'll wear that embrace in the dark like the armor you said it was
Bury me in the yard with the dogs
They know who I was
Love is never gone
It goes on, and on, and on
Stories never end
And the good shines on in men
