If Orange Was A Place

Found (feat. Brent Faiyaz)

Lyrics by Philip Cody - Everything else AI

Motorcycles in the sun
Hug the coast up Highway One
You’re free to wander night and day
Saddle up and drive away
Up and down the golden shore
Welcome signs on every door
Proclaim a life worth living for
In my America
In my America

Weekend sailor on the tide
Wife and daughter by his side
Lay the line and trim the sail
Among the dolphins and the whales
Tack and jibe, and glide along
Telling tales and singing songs
This is where my heart belongs
In my America

On winding roads and shining seas
In the glow of the beacon of liberty
Grown up strong and grown up free
Lucky bastards, you and me . . .

Settin’ at the end of day
I watch the neighbor children play
Rowdy little girls and boys
Having fun and making noise
And who among us ever knows
How the future ebbs and flows
You plant the seed and watch it grow
In my America
In my America
In my
In my 
America

In My America

Lyrics by Philip Cody - everything else: AI

You are a candle in the darkness
Your love lights my way
I can see you shining in the distance
Big and bright as day
I can feel the warmth as I get closer
I can see myself go up in flames
When love begins it's like a whisper
That grows into a hurricane

I've been waiting for you
For the longest time
I feel you in my heart
See you in my mind
I know we're gonna make it
Baby, we're overdue
I see it in the way you look at me
The hunger in your eyes
The pleasure in your smile
The pain in your good-byes
It's a million little things you do
Bringing me closer to you

Closer to you
Closer to you
Closer and closer to you
A million little things you do
Bringing me closer to you

Here, where the minutes turn to hours
I know I'm where I wanna be
Close to the glory and the power
Having you this close to me
Give me a lifetime to explore you
Tell me all there is to know
I need some time to memorize you
Learnin you from head to toe

I've been waiting for you
For the longest time
I feel you in my heart
See you in my mind
I know we're gonna make it
Baby, we're overdue
I see it in the way you look at me
The hunger in your eyes
The pleasure in your smile
The pain in your good-byes
It's a million little things you do
Bringing me closer to you

Closer to you
Closer to you
Closer and closer to you
A million little things ooh ooh
Bringing me closer to you

Closer


Blood on the keys
You suffer for the truth
And do as you please
Chasing fame and youth
With trouble in mind
And murder in your heart
The blind lead the blind
Deeper down into the dark
Who would have dreamed
You’d be down here on your knees
Still unredeemed
With blood on the keys
There's Blood on the keys

Affairs of the heart
Thunder in your chest
The tinder and spark
Over which we all obsess
You know how it feels
To be hungry and in need
Pain makes it real
But only love can make it bleed
I have never known
A time I was at ease
My cover has been blown
And there’s blood on the keys
So much blood on the keys


Blood on the keys
Misdemeanors and felonies
Dead of night epiphanies
You wrestle with alone

Blood on the keys
Slay the dragons of memory
Your sorrows and your sympathy
Have cut me to the bone

Night after night
You stand on shaky legs
To hold up a light
Like a candler with an egg
Looking for life
Looking for a place to hide
Stitched up real nice
But torn to shreds inside
Who could foresee
This was how it had to be
There’s no one here but me . . .
And there’s blood on the keys
There’s blood on the keys
I got blood on the keys
So much blood on the keys
Oh yeah blood on the keys


Blood On The Keys


The news today
Is crazy with confusion
So many people
Got way too much to say
It's easy to get lost
Feel ignored and be forgotten
If not for you I would never
Be able to find my way

Stardust
Settles upon our shoulders
Colors the local weather
With clouds of memory
We’d stay up all night
Making moments that last forever
Tomorrows turn into yesterdays
When you were loving me
Oh, when you were loving me

I lost my faith
In the City of Angels
Left it out there
Stranded on the 405
I might have been famous
Me and my cocaine connections . . .
If not for you I’d have never
Gotten away alive

Stardust
Settles upon our shoulders
And colors the local weather
With clouds of memory
We’d stay up all night
Making moments that last forever
Tomorrows turn into yesterdays
When you were loving me
When you were loving me
When you were loving me

I’ve earned these scars
Living and learning
Nothing comes easy
Nothing comes free
And when I turn out the lights
I can feel you there waiting
Feel you out there wanting
Feel you out there needing
oh, oh

Stardust
Settles upon our shoulders
And colors the local weather
With clouds of memory
We’d stay up all night
Making moments that last forever
Tomorrows turn into yesterdays
When you were loving me
When you were loving me
When you were loving me
When you were loving me

When You Were Loving Me

Stand Up


We’re gonna light the stars
And kiss the day goodnight
Hang a slice of moon
Way up in the sky
Won’t you snuggle up
And we can watch the show
Don’t go
Baby, please don't go
Oh, no
Baby, please don’t go

The city lies below
Like stardust at our feet
Honeysuckle whispers
Secrets in the dark
The morning will be here
Before we know
Don’t go
Baby, please don't go
Oh, no
Baby, please don’t go

Look at how the two of us together
Can almost make a moment last forever

Come on and close your eyes
And linger for a while
Let’s pretend tomorrow
Is never gonna come
And brother Barry’s singin
Sweet and low
Don’t go
Baby, please don't go
Oh, no
Baby, please don’t go

We’re gonna light the stars
And kiss the day goodnight
Hang a slice of moon
Way up in the sky
Won’t you snuggle up
And we can watch the show
Don’t go
Baby, please don't go
Oh, no
Baby, please don’t go

Don't Go
