Eyes Wide - Phone recording Practice

___LYRICS

You call me a sinner baby, show me where's your church
is the bar your alter? don't you hit me where it hurts
Love can be learned or so I'm told. Take a paper and pen and I'll take notes.
It's time we all need, close your eyes and count one, two, three.

Divine protection, health and guidance
who are we impressing if there's no one there to see
I'll be the fire you by the hydrant. Watch your calmness wash over me

well we've all got our problems, let's hope we can solve them.

Tell me the secrets of love, is it man made or from above? or hallmarked that way?
Where have you gone? Are you lost inside your head again. 
What a shame it had to end up this way.

well we've all got our problems, let's hope we can solve them.

Divine protection, health and guidance
who are we impressing if there's no one there to see
I'll be the fire you by the hydrant. Watch your calmness wash over me

Divine protection, health and guidance
who are we impressing if there's no one there to see
I'll be the fire you by the hydrant. Watch your calmness wash over me

___LYRICS

Awkward conversations about how well your day went
are you still under a cloud
I know it's hard
You know my heart is in the right place.
Now save space for cakes that I made
and we can start to feel better day by day

I haven't been myself lately and I think we all know why

Because I'm in and out and up and down
Stop the clocks and tell me how
not to mope around for too long
old picture-books and jumping brook's 
old coins, don't make a noise there's no one at the door from what i can see

it's a shame how we meet.

is there more than what I can find
you tell me it's snowing outside
don't face the sun but what it's shining on 

how it's strange that old worlds collide
thick frames and the talk of old
making promises that'll never keep

it's a shame how we meet.

Because I'm in and out and up and down
Stop the clocks and tell me how
not to mope around for too long
old picture-books and jumping brook's 
old coins, don't make a noise there's no one at the door from what i can see.

More Than Meets The Eye

broken hearts in ripped jeans
making things bigger than they seem
you won't care in the morning

you gotta hold on love its gonna vbe tough
5 more hours and you'll be feeling rough
regretting the drinks in the morning

i remember when we were all friends
drinking sambucca without warning when 
there was nothing else to do

but you're 19 love you're stil growing up
can you talk to someone else because i've had enough
of explaining things to you

What have i become
page in your picture book
we can run away or maybe fall in love


I see you've changed. I can see it in your eyes
you've aged by the day but you're still looking inside. me. 
to tell you how to feel

I'll drink the bottles. you drink the wine. 
and we can talk about old times
and everything in between

What have i become
page in your picture book
we can run away or maybe fall in love

Take me on. For the Ride
It won't be. The same this time.

We can go over and over.
