Don't Trade Me In

Don’t move on too quickly.
Don’t get on with it.
Answer my call,
you can’t stay mad for too long.
Before you know it I’ll be home.
We can pick up where we left.
Don’t make any plans
until I get back.
If you’ll let me, I’ll do all I can
to let everyone know you’re my man.
Just don’t trade me in.
Don’t trade me in yet.
Don't trade me in.
I know how hard you’re trying,
it’s always been your style.
But your patience has been wearing thin
already for awhile.
I feel like you’re a train car
speeding down the track,
and no matter how hard I try
I just can’t seem to get you back.
If you’ll let me, I’ll do all I can
to let everyone know you’re my man.
Just don’t trade me in.
Don’t trade me in yet.
Don't trade me in.

My Darling

Won’t you finally come home to me
Before the leaves fall from the trees
I’ll be hard to find once there’s snow on the ground
How many times do you think of me
Do I cloud up your mind so recklessly
Cuz you know I can’t stop thinking of you
Don’t you want to be my darling
Don’t you want to be my one and only
Don’t you want to be my darling
Come home, come home to me
I haven’t been sleeping too well
It’s so quiet and lonely in this house
And I don’t know how much longer I can wait
It’s not easy to come to a place
Where, once something is taken away,
you may never ever see it again
Don’t you want to be my darling
Don’t you want to be my one and only
Don’t you want to be my darling
Come home, come home to me

You and I, put us together very carefully
You’re a sensitive boy, and I’m a girl who breaks so easily
You and I, we’re just trying to find a way to stay alive
And I wouldn’t mind (neither would I) some peace once in a while
And here’s to the broken hearts we’ve created
And here’s to the misery we’ve tried to forget
And while we wait for things to get better
May I suggest something that we haven’t tried yet?
Can we get, can we get a little closer?
Won’t you come, won’t you come on over
Give me the answer to your spell, cuz we know very very well that
Everyone needs to get a lot closer
Did you know it’s been a while since I’ve felt alone
You’re the light on my porch, & you’re the train ride bringing me home
Did you know you’re the one who keeps me from falling apart
You’re the one (how could you tell?) who keeps watch while I sleep in the dark
And here’s to the broken hearts we’ve created
And here’s to the misery we’ve tried to forget
And while we wait for things to get better
May I suggest something that we haven’t tried yet?
Can we get, can we get a little closer?
Won’t you come, won’t you come on over
Give me the answer to your spell, cuz we know very very well that
Everyone needs to get a lot closer

Stereo Buttons

I was the clouds in the sky, drifting up high, searching for you
I was the rain falling down, down on the crowds, crying for you
It was the song playing somewhere far away, that lead me to you
And if you’re ready to be my favourite thing
I’m ready to be yours
I can easily hide what's lurking inside for months at a time
I am the classic case of disastrous mistakes of the grandest kind
You're the buttons on the stereo that erase and rewind
And if you’re ready to be my favourite thing
I’m ready to be yours
You and me, we were meant to be
It was no mistake, you were right there waiting

I thought I saw you the other day
I think you saw me and looked away
And I’m not surprised at how sad you seemed
That same sadness has been a part of me
What if you were making your way home
What if you were living all alone
and hadn't found someone like you thought you would
I haven’t found anyone like I thought I could
I don’t want to say goodbye
For a second time
What if you haven't been able to move on?
What if you still think of coming home?
And trying to pick up from the where we left off
Do you think we can pick up where we left off?
I don’t want to say goodbye
For a second time

Only For You

If I could give you everything, I would
If I could kiss away your pain, I’d do it in a second
If I want to keep you to myself, I should
If I could take you everywhere with me you know I would do it
The wind and the rain call out your name
Over the hills
The sun and moon, they rise and they set
Only for you, only for you
If I could keep you from sadness, I would
If you heard me wishing on a star, just know that I meant it
If I want to hold you day and night, I should
If I didn’t have to let you go, you know I wouldn’t do it
The wind and the rain call out your name
Over the hills
The sun and moon, they rise and they set
Only for you, only for you
The storm and the snow stay away
The bears and the bees keep you safe
The leaves on the trees will fall one day
Only for you
