Stay Awhile

LYRICS:

I know some place we can go if we wanna get lost on our way home.
Trust me baby I’m alright if you let me take the unknown.

And I believe that we can make it and if we don’t want to take it than that’s our call.
If there’s anything that I’ve learned in this world you got to make it on your own call.

Cause I believe that times flying away and I’m trying to tug it back down
And I believe that times like these were meant to be so just stay here and spend them with me.

I know we may never come back to this place and that’s fine.
Cause we’ll be on our way to the next great find.

And I believe that we can make it and if we don’t want to take it than that’s our call.
If there’s anything that I’ve learned in this world you got to make it on your own calls.

Cause I believe that times flying away and I’m trying to tug it back down
And I believe that times like these were meant to be so just stay here and spend them with me.

With me.


With Me

My first song ukulele!

LYRICS:

Took the long way home.
Found myself all alone.
Talked it out, made some friends,
Got a whole lot better since then.
And here we are right now.

And I wonder
If we made it
To the same place
In our minds.

Baby its a long way home.
Made it this far so lets not get old and grown.
Took a hike, approached the detour, 
Never seen a day like this before.
And here we are right now.

And I wonder
If we made it
To the same place
In our minds.

When it’s all said and done, 
Will you have said more than you have done?

And I wonder
If we made it
To the same place
In our minds.

All Said & Done

LYRICS:

I said, "Why don't we go on a holiday?"
He said, "Why don't we take a little break?"
I never knew it would be this hard but I've been giving it my all.

It's been so obvious to see boy,
That you're so over me.
And that's fine, I'm gonna be a better man.
Cause I'm so ready for the next boy.
I'm ready for the next boy.

I said, "Why don't we go and talk it out?"
He said, "Why do we always have to talk it out?"
I never knew it would be this hard but I've been giving it my all.

It's been so obvious to see boy,
That you're so over me.
And that's fine, I'm gonna be a better man.
Cause I'm so ready for the next boy.
I'm ready for the next boy.

Why does it always end up like this?
Why can't we just pause, enjoy the bliss?
I don't know what else I'm to do.

Cause it's been so obvious to see boy,
That you're so over me.
And that's fine, I'm gonna be a better man.
Cause I'm so ready for the next boy.
I'm ready for the next boy.

Ready For The Next Boy

LYRICS:

You left today
I said goodbye
For who knows how long
Til next time
I faked a smile
Said in time
We’ll meet up again my friend

People always leave
And it hurts to say goodbye

You call me your main man
And I’ve never felt so proud
Cause you make me feel like
A million bucks whenever your around

But people always leave
And it hurts to say goodbye

I’m not sure if you know how much you mean to me
You for sure don’t know your worth, 
And he tells me that’s its fine, that one day and time, 
It will all be how it should be, positive energy
And I don’t tell you enough, but I love you like a brother
And I miss you like boy, who misses his mother
And I guess only time can tell, where this will lead in the end,
But I hope to be your friend in the end, 
And I hope to meet your kids and wife, 
And I hope to see all the joys in your life.

You left today
I said goodbye
For who knows how long
Til next time
I faked a smile
As you drove away
And I'd never cried like that for no one before

Cause people always leave
And it hurts to say goodbye
And it hurts to say goodbye, so many times.

People Always Leave

I don’t wanna plain bagel or regular pie, 
White t-shirt, nothing kind of guy,
Work clothes with wrinkles under my eyes.

I don’t wanna blend in and stand in a crowd,
Hold back and never say out loud,
Things that I think are truly profound. 

So I gotta change my ways and make it my day,
Maybe someday I’ll make it my break,
And share a smile, with whomever will take it.

But until then I do believe,
I’ll skip along and ease my feet,
And be the best me that I can be.

Amazing, someday I’ll be . . .
But until then, this is me.

I don’t need a big house or fancy machine,
Yacht club with leather French seams,
Fast car with sixteen MPG’s.

I don’t need a “he said, she said” kind of love,
Friends that rather text a hug,
Shoulders there but you just sit and shrug.

So I gotta change my ways and make it my day,
Maybe someday I’ll make it my break,
And share this song, with whoever will take it.

But until then I do believe,
I’ll skip along and ease my feet,
And be the best me that I can be.

Which is amazing, someday I’ll be . . .
But until then, this is me.

All I wants a yellow house, a willow tree,
Where I strum on my ukulele, sip my tea,
Where all the oceans roar and mountains peak,
Where I can play around til I fall asleep,
Fall asleep cause I’ve been running around.

All I need is clean air and water at best,
Passion and fire in my chest,
Sunshine that just never rests.

All I want is world peace and loving grenades,
Free hugs and jolly parades,
Good hearts and people who say . . .

That we gotta change our ways and make it our day,
Maybe someday we’ll make it our break,
And share our smiles, with whoever will take it.

But until then I do believe,
We’ll skip along and ease our feet,
And be the best me's that we can be.

Cause we're amazing, that's right cause we're . . .
Just wait and see, this is me.

Amazing.

Out of It

One of the hardest and most honest songs I've ever written. Enjoy!

Loved By Me (Live Acoustic)

One of the first songs I'd had ever written. It is a story about two waves, a father and his son, and the beautiful relationship that they share.

Brace For The Land

Hello! My name is Ian. I am 22 years old. Thanks for checking out my page!

My goals as a musician are parallel to my goals as a human being - create positive in the world. I want to be a role model who stands for what is right. Someone who sheds light on the hard truths of our society and political systems, and someone who stands on the progressive side of history. I believe my heart and my songs both showcase these morals that I stand by, and I hope someday the world will have the opportunity to experience them both.

If you wish to contact me (which I hope you do!) you can best find me at ib20syo@optonline.net or facebook.com/ibarin.
