Summer Birds
02:57
|

Baby Baby we fell in love in the spring time
Summer sun was up above, we were in heaven
What a wonderful season, every day spent with you
When the summer sun it faded away
So did your love for me, I begged you to stay
Though I knew you never would
I could see in your eye- you were gone for good
Chorus: Now all I want is summer birds once again at my window
Summer birds, helping my heart sing
Summer birds, helping me come around
Summer birds help me come around
In the summer I could get over you
I’d start to laugh again and find someone new
But since its winter now I’m alone and aloof
And I just don’t know what to do
Chorus
BRIDGE: The sky now, so ugly and grey, I can’t imagine better days
I know that this winter will pass, I just hope I’ll last
Chorus

The Other Kind
06:04

I think there should be a basic level of trust
And kindness in conversations between us
I won’t call this love, and we’re not friends
I think we’re sick and we both need some kinda medicine
Where did he go, the man who made me feel alive?
Did he get lost? Is he hurt? Did he die?
You know, what you say to me are things I’d never say
At least I wouldn’t say then that way
CHORUS: I guess love is wild, some times its blind
Your love can make me run like hell all night
and still get left behind
Me and my restless heart, we hit the wall, we saw the sign
Whatever kind of love I’ve tried,
now I’m lookin’ for the other kind
O darling, when you were shining like the sun
I thought we could beat the world and make fools out of everyone
The joke’s on us now, but we’re not laughing
It got so dark out, when did that happen?
Where did he go, the man who made me feel so free?
When did your touch become more curse than cure to me?
Now I know which is the greater sin
To live with the disease or lose the limb

Last Night
04:24
|

Last night you said you had some news, somehow I already knew
Whatever you had to say would end up in goodbye
So when you came over and said you where going
I tried so hard to fake that smile
Because I hadn’t seen you that happy in quite a while
Now it wasn’t the first time, we’d whispered away the night
You’d go on all about some far off distant place
You’d get that look in your eye, and smile and sigh
And say some day you’d take that ride
But I never believed you’d go until last night
CHORUS:Cause I could see it in your eye you were already leaving
I could hear it in your voice you were already gone
That was the moment when last night became this morning
That was the moment I knew I was gonna be all alone
Last night under the moon, you told me you’d be leaving soon
You couldn’t wait to pull up all your roots
So I took your hand and listened to your plans
there was nothing else to do
I was losing you, losing you
CHORUS

Trash My Heart
04:42
|
|||
You trash my heart, you’re some kind of artist
When I’m trying hardest, that’s just when you disappear
O O O Boy, do you know what you do?
Do you know I remember every word you say?
I remember every plan we make?
And that time, we stayed up and talked all night, I felt like I could fly
I hoped you’d feel the same, but I haven’t heard from you in days
CHORUS: You trash my heart,
You do it so neatly, you do it so sweetly,
it comes so naturally
You trash my heart,
You do it so cooly,
and I feel so foolish for going through this again
Crazy boy, I’m fresh out of good ideas
But whenever I try to leave, you change my mind so easily
So if I’m not, the one that you want the most I’d love you to let me know
Cause I don’t want to feel this way and then not hear from you for days
CHORUS: You trash my heart,
You do it so cleanly, its not even meanly
It comes so naturally to you
You trash my heart,
Do you want me to chase you?
Is everything I do wasted on you?
Will you put me through this again?
BRIDGE: This is not the way that it should be,
you swinging back and forth me
And it begins each time its over
You trash my heart, OH

Born To Love
04:34
|

Darkness, calling you and I both running through the night
Silver Lover, you’re so graceful in the moonlight I could die
O please, love me, I’ll love you just as well as I am able
But my love, was never enough
You drank the wine but left the whole feast at the table
CHORUS: This heart of mine was made for this
To enfold someone, to hold on to him
To pour my heart out over and over again
I was born to love someone, I was born to love somebody
Even as my heart is being broken
I was born to love someone, I was born to love somebody
I was born to love someone (born to love someone)
I was born to love someone (born to love someone)
Weightless, falling, from your heights I plummeted straight to the ground
Half hearted Lover, you saw my brokenness,
heard that awful crashing sound
Farewell Other, I loved you just as much as I was able
You leave now, you flee now
You drank the wine but left the whole feast at the table
