Hopeless in Love

You and I need to talk this over 
And stop this cover up soon
You deny that you have these feelings
But you just fear the truth
Every moment we’re not together 
You’re blowing up my phone
Just admit that it’s more than feeling
Like you can’t be alone

You’re hopelessly in love with me
 
CHORUS
(so hopeless in love)
I’m willing to bet my stimulus check
I’m on your mind 
(so hopeless in love)
Nobody but me is able to see
You’re already mine
(so hopeless in love)
But you’re doing well, your friends can’t tell
I’ve won your heart 
(so hopeless in love)
I know how you are, you’re falling apart
Without me in your arms 
(so hopeless in love)

Tell me why you just won’t confess it
You keep on stretching the truth
Saying things like I love you but I can’t 
Be in love with you
You complain of the danger 
Letting your heart too close to mine
Every minute you take debating 
You’re wasting precious time

You’re hopelessly in love with me
CHORUS

BRIDGE
Hopelessly in love with me
And I can’t believe
It’s taking this much
To say you’re in love with me

You’re hopelessly in love with me
CHORUS

Hopeless in Love

A Night Like This

Come on darling stay a while
Waste some time with me
See if I can make you smile
And have a drink or three
A party in a pickup truck
A perfect way to start the night off right
We’ll pick some constellations 
And we’ll give em proper names
That right there is Beercules
Of Alabama fame
We’ll raise our bottles to the sky
And give a toast to you and I tonight

CHORUS
Cause baby on a night like this
The stars in your eyes
And every time we kiss
My heart comes alive
If this could last forever
Just us together in bliss
And baby when you laugh out loud
I can’t help but echo
Makes it all worthwhile 
I don’t wanna let go 
Of this night worth keeping
No time for sleeping 
Or miss out on a night like this

Come on honey let’s go fish
Tonight out on the lake
You can hold the Maglite
While I pull em to the bank
We’ll take a shot for every bite
And hope that we can reel em in all night

CHORUS

BRIDGE
That look in your eyes says come closer
(Don’t have to tell me twice, scoot over)
And what kind of night will this be?
(I’ve got a thought or two so let’s just see)
Hands intertwined, moving slower
(I wonder what awaits for you and me)
We’ll never forget a night like this

CHORUS

A Night Like This

Darling So You Know

Caught a glimpse of you at home
With your face in your hands
Call it stress on overload
While your bones just refuse to stand
And darling when it hurts, It’s the worst
With your heart in the dirt
And you can’t seem to balance your life

CHORUS
But girl you’re not alone
I’ll be lacing them up every fight
And darling so you know 
You’re gun to my rose

Kick your feet up in the chair
Grab a tall glass of wine
Just surrender all your care
Take a breath from your hectic life
Cause darling when it hurts, It’s the worst
With your heart in the dirt
And you struggle to find peace of mind

CHORUS
But girl you’re not alone
I’ll be holding you tight every night
And darling so you know 
You’re the rock to my roll

SOLO

And darling when it hurts, It’s the worst
With your heart in the dirt
And it’s never an opportune time

CHORUS
But girl you’re not alone
I’ll be wiping those tears every cry
And darling so you know 
You’re the Hall to my Oates

But girl you’re not alone
I’ll be scratching your back every night
And darling so you know 
You’re the love of my life

Darling So You Know

Wrote this in 2021 as an audio note on my phone. Finally decided to finish it. R&B Pop is out of my comfort zone so it was fun to make.

Chasing Starlight

I met you long ago and I
I opened up my home and I 
I gave you half my soul
And I put you on a throne
Then you left me in the cold dark world
And it’s all I tried to build with ya
A house upon a hill with ya
But I was not enough
So you boxed up all your stuff
And you kissed us goodbye

PRE-CHORUS
Star light star bright
My heart hurts tonight
I drink this bottle dry
Like I’m drowning in you

CHORUS
Looking back I should’ve known
That hope could never build a home
And all these years I’ve wasted
Chasing starlight in you (x2)

Here we are again and it’s 
It’s digging in my skin and it’s 
It’s eating me alive and it
Keeps me up at night
When you act like you don’t know my name
And I knew that you was cold but I
Never thought you’d be so bold and I
So tired of the lies
So damn sick of the goodbyes
I could really use a wish right now

PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

BRIDGE
And I remember how it felt when
You with someone else and
You said I was tripping
Said you a bad girl living in a bad world
Girl you got it so wrong
Girl you did us so wrong
Falling down to the ground
Gotta hurt like
Used to be a star 
Now you just starlight
Just a wish for the night
Not a lifetime
Begging for a lifeline
Out there chasing starlight 

PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

Chasing Starlight

In Love With Yourself

If I compared you to a fine wine baby
You’re a good time maybe
Like a chardonnay
But narcissism is an understatement 
And I just can’t take it
When you act this way

Phone out for clout all the time
You’re always staring at your own face more than mine
You’re so obsessed with yourself
There’s never any time for anyone else

CHORUS
I don’t know what to say
I don’t know what to do 
I know I can’t compare
You’re too in love with you
I only wish that I
Knew how your mirrors felt
You think of no one else
You’re so in love with yourself

If influential is the path you're taking
Then you’re so mistaken
You can change a thing
Your self-obsession is so deep embedded
And you’re too big headed
For philanthropy

In Love With Yourself

Empty Words 

I spoke with the neighbor
You’re staying out later
And somebody new just dropped you off
You said you were through with
All the excuses
Saying you only think of us
But I found the text that 
You sent to your ex and
I called out the red stains on your palm
But here you’re are crying
And always denying
That anything more is going on

(Chorus)
Empty words  
You say it’s the last time
Empty words
Your lips tell only lies
And your eyes
Are still avoiding mine
You sell empty words your actions never buy

I had my suspicions 
You made some omissions
Where you and the girls went out last night
At six in the morning 
You still were ignoring
Attempts just to make sure you’re alright
Now here I am sifting
The stories you give me 
For any resemblance of the truth
But all that I’m finding 
Is proof that you’re lying
And all of your threads keep pulling loose

(Chorus)
Empty words  
You say it’s the last time
Empty words
Your lips tell only lies
And your eyes
Are still avoiding mine
You sell empty words your actions never buy

(Bridge)
Why do you try so hard to string along my heart?
Why did you take so long to pull our world apart?
You try to justify but all I hear are
Empty words
Empty words

(Chorus)
Empty words  
You say it’s the last time
Empty words
Your lips tell only lies
And your eyes
Are still avoiding mine
Like you just can’t bear to look me in the eyes
You sell empty words your actions never buy

How Do I Say Goodbye?

The world is cold, don’t forget it
It’ll drain your soul, if you let it
It’ll run you through and eat your heart alive
It’ll make you cold, if you let it

CHORUS
How do I move on, following this?
How do I stay strong when you’re sorely missed?
How do I wake up and somehow feel alright?
How do I say goodbye?

When I close my eyes, I’m back with you
Still my pen can’t write how I miss you
Every “thoughts and prayers” still fails to ease my mind
When I close my eyes, how I miss you

CHORUS

God only knows how long this will last
God only knows which day this will pass
God hold me close, let tranquility wash over me

CHORUS

It's Coming

How Do I Say Goodbye?

Since You’ve Gone

Sunday morning 
And the light is creeping in
Waking up 
To where I used to feel your skin
Fingers dancing 
On the pillow that you called your home
Circumstances 
Have invaded our routine
A touch of cruelty 
To split us at the seams
It’s temporary 
Yet it’s scary how the silence grows

Your love is worth the wait
But still I have to say
There hasn’t been a day
I’ve not been crying, not been dying

(Chorus)
I miss you since you’ve gone
Like I can’t go on
I miss you please come home
Cause I’m so alone without you

Looking up
At all the dust across the room 
Slowly blanketing
My memories with you
Your fingerprints
Still lingering on every part of me
Motivation 
Has evaded my resolve
Still it’s easier
To simply soldier on
And every morning 
Yields another opportunity 

Your love is worth the wait
But still I have to say
There hasn’t been a day
I’ve not been crying, not been dying

(Chorus)
I miss you since you’ve gone
Like I can’t go on
I miss you please come home
Cause I’m so alone without you

(Solo)

Your love is worth the wait
But still I have to say
There hasn’t been a day
I’ve not been crying, not been dying

(Chorus)
I miss you since you’ve gone
Like I can’t go on
I miss you please come home
Cause I’m so alone and
I miss you please come home
Cause I’m so alone without you
Without you
Without you 
Without you
Without you

Since You've Gone

VERSE 1
Hey…I want you, it’s no surprise
I can feel you burning too
Let’s save…inhibitions for the night 
Turn them on again at dawn cause 
You’re a player one with a golden gun
And I’d love to be your final fantasy
I can feel my soul doing barrel rolls
Every time your body leans in close to me

CHORUS
Why do we feel that we can 
Save on borrowed time?
Why do we feel that we can 
Play these games all night?

VERSE 2
Pause…We’ve been playing games all night
Flirting for the highest score
Let’s stop…the hadoukens in this fight
Beating you’s so hard to do and 
Need a second life to have enough time
Just to craft a line that’s worthy of your smile
Timer’s running out in the final round
Gonna take this princess home with me in style

CHORUS

BRIDGE
We’re slamming quarters in a game
That never ends to pass the time
Throwing turtle shells with every pickup line
Looking forward to the moment
That we cross the finish line 
It’s time to end these games tonight

Summer of Storms
90 BPM

CHORUS
It’s looking bad out
Everyday it’s another cloud out
Going downtown every night
Send another round out
Shot after shot tryna get straight
Tryna get paid it’s a madhouse

I ain’t tryna be yo money
I ain’t tryna care girl
You understand girl
You understand girl

Rain cloud
Summer done start yeah
Blackout
Benny on stars yeah
Glass out 
Throw it back hard
Throw it back hard
Throw it back hard til it stop
In the drop-top, skies the limit
Keep it in your lane 
Can’t look straight 
Let it cook fuzzy in your brain
Let it ride out thunder roll 
Wish it all away wish it all away
Wish until the storm ain’t a thing
