Timing Is Everything Acoustic EP

Lyrics:

That whole day I spent building you a castle
With that beautiful sandy bedroom
Lit with you favorite scented candles 
Washed away with my keys and socks and shoes
Swept into the ocean
Before you saw what I had built for you

Oh what a pretty face can do
Oh what a pretty face can do

I didn't take you to the beach 
To be left in the sand 
I lost you in the current 
And I'm left on the land

Never know when you're telling me the truth
Said the ocean took you off your feet
I know you went voluntarily 

Oh what a pretty face can do
Oh what a pretty face can do

Now I'm a match in the sea trying to start a fire 
And I'm drowning in your ocean 
Oh your pretty face, your pretty face hides a liar

Pretty Face

Timing Is Everything Acoustic EP

Lyrics:

We drew maps and colored over them in pen
Decided where bathrooms go and where to put the bed
We started digging holes in the dirt
Placed water pipes where they fit 
And poured concrete over the earth 

We’d curl up in the space we built for days
We had everything we needed all together in one place
We used to love the sounds when it rained
We'd plug the holes in the roof and play our favorite games

Houses don't shatter, they crack and crumble
And we could build it back, stone by stone, if we knew how
Ceilings go slowly then come down all at once 
We're so far away but somehow we can see it fall apart
 
A couple years went by we moved away
Packed up all our luggage and we found our different states
Nothing left to cover the wooden floors
No one left to turn the screws or fix the broken door

Houses don't shatter, they crack and crumble
And we could build it back, stone by stone, if we knew how
Ceilings go slowly then come down all at once 
We're so far away but somehow we can see it fall apart
 
The shingles on the roof began to fray
The rain too strong, the wind to crisp
They turned the paint to grey
The rafters in the attic bent and cracked
Splintering, they fell apart
And then it all collapsed 

I wish that we could go back to our house
We'd light a fire and close the doors to keep the cold air out
But we disagree on where the bed should go
So when I want a home I'll build alone

Houses

Timing Is Everything Acoustic EP

Lyrics:

Long is the road that takes me home
From your place behind the grocery store  
The city signs illuminate 
shine light on my self conscious ways 
Short is your attention span 
Still, I always want to hold your hand  
So if you push I'll go and pull you in
To trace the freckles on your skin

How about 5 more minutes 
Just 5 more minutes
Just 5 more minutes with you 
We can talk this through 

I stay inside your yellow lines 
Too afraid to cross to the other sides 
So I keep my head and hands on straight 
Focus on my breathe to concentre

I need 5 more minutes 
I need 5 more minutes 
I need 5 more minutes with you 
I need 5 more minutes 
I need 5 more minutes 
I need 5 more minutes with you 
We can talk this through 

Tell me what you're thinking babe 
I can't read your vacant face 
I shouldn't need a reason for
Just the five minutes more

Five More Minutes

Timing Is Everything Acoustic EP

Lyrics:

Dear Taylor
I find it hard to fill the paper
I can’t write what I admire
seems my thoughts just feed the fire
Dear Taylor
despite how hard I try
I just can’t seem to write
‘cause the only thing that’s on my mind is

Dear Taylor
Won’t you dance with me
If I was a king I’d make you my queen
Dear Taylor
I could write you a song
and the only thing left for you is to sing along

Dear Taylor
My guitar’s starting to un-tune 
I’m out of ink
papers askew
but I know I’ll see you soon
Dear Taylor
It’s getting darker every night
even though I’m lost I feel alright
‘cause I see your footprint next to mine

Dear Taylor
Won’t you dance with me
If I was a king I’d make you my queen
Dear Taylor
I could write you a song
and the only thing left for you is to sing along

You finally found the combination to pick the lock inside my mind
the unsureness in your voice, it makes me seem like it’s just fine
In the morning I’ll wake up and see the moon reflect off your big brown beautiful eyes
so I can speak my mind
I’ll speak my mind

Dear Taylor
Won’t you dance with me
If I was a king I’d make you my queen
Dear Taylor
I could write you a song
and the only thing left for you is to sing along

Dear Taylor

Timing Is Everything Acoustic EP

Lyrics:

Go pack your bags baby
We’re going to find some peace of mind
Don’t worry about tomorrow
We’re leaving it all behind

You and I could live forever 
As long as we're together 
That's all I need 
That's all I need

Send a letter to your sisters
Go out and stop the mail
I packed up all our family pictures
And put the house on up for sale

You and I could live forever 
As long as we're together 
That's all I need 
There will be no evening rain 
Just the sunset on the bay 
That's all I need

We don’t need no golden chandelier
We don’t need no fancy cars
If we're rich, if we're broke 
In the rain, in the snow
The more that I learn 
I'm lost but I'm home
No matter where we go 
No matter where we are
You’re all I need
