Can't Seem To Sleep
04:35

Did it really happen
Or was it just a dream?
After hours and nights and weeks and months of talking
You leaned in and kissed me
Can’t say it hadn’t crossed my mind
A thousand or so times,
But now I can’t seem to sleep
Been waiting all this time
To find out if you’re real
To find out if you’re mine,
And now I can’t seem to sleep,
Without thinking of you tonight
Did it really happen happen
Or am I just living in my dreams?
After holding hands, and counting stars, and dancing
You say you fell in love with me
Can’t say it never crossed my mind
Every time you caught my eyes,
And now I can’t seem to sleep
Been waiting all this time
To find out this is real,
To find out that you’re mine,
But now I can’t seem to sleep
Cause I’ve got you tonight
Did that really happen?
I wish it was a dream
After years of making promises together,
You broke them all and left me.
I didn’t know it ever crossed your mind…
I always thought we’d have more time,
But now I can’t seem to sleep
Been loving you all this time
Just to feel a pain so real -
That you’re no longer mine,
And now I can’t sleep
Without you beside me tonight.

Look At Me
03:05

Look at me, look at me, look at me
Why can’t I get you to you look at me?
I laugh at all your jokes and find
Reasons to sit by you - what can I do?
And I - I can’t stop thinking about you,
I can’t stop dreaming of you
And I’m tired of waiting for you to…
So what can I do, to get you
To look at me, look at me, look at me
Like I look at you
Look at me, look at me, look at me
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
Why can’t I get you to talk to me?
I come over early and stay after late
Just dying to find a chance to relate, yeah
And I - I can’t stop thinking about you,
I can’t stop dreaming of you
And I’m tired of waiting for you to…
So what can I do, to get you
To look at me, look at me, look at me
Like I look at you
Look at me, look at me, look at me
And I’ve tried everything I know how
Hoping it’ll make it through to you somehow that
I just want to get to know you baby, baby
So what can I do, to get you
To look at me, look at me, look at me
Like I look at you
Look at me, look at me, look at me
Look at me

Clean Break

What’s a clean, no such thing
As a clean break
It’s a haze, backwards maze
Can’t find my way back to yesterday
Try to move on, but
Time is just a ticking time bomb for a break,
Not a…
Clean, no such thing
As a clean break
It’s a haze, backwards maze
Can’t find my way back to yesterday
Why have I been waiting round here for
All of these wand’ring years waiting for
Someone to hear me,
If I only had the courage to speak
Maybe I’m just too cowardly for a…
Clean, no such thing
As a clean break

Apple Pie
04:07

Sure looking good over there
With your ripped jeans and long auburn hair
Sorry, I don’t mean to stare…
Well, that’s a lie.
It’s just I bet you taste just like apple pie,
And that’s really something
I’d like to try.
Caught you staring back at me
At least I think I did, I mean - it is half past three
Oh no, that was it - definitely.
Are you thinking the same thing as me?
That you bet I taste just like apple pie,
And that’s really something
You’d like to try.
Work up the nerve to walk your way
You tuck your hair behind your ear and say “hey”
I said “There’s a quiet diner down the street.
You wanna get out of here and grab a bite to eat?”
You say “I hear they have the best apple pie,
And that’s really something
We ought to try.”
Fine by me
Across the street
You and me
You taste so sweet

It's Just Me

Stop looking this way
Stop staying too long
Stop laughing at my jokes,
Stop touching my arm
Don’t think I don’t notice
When you linger a little too long
You can’t say it’s just me
Cause you call when you need to cry
Tell me it’s ok, that it’ll be allright
It’s the way you say goodnight
I’ll tell you when it hurts
It’s when you ask me to stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
Do you really want to stay, stay, stay, stay, stay?
But I think it’s just me.
Stop looking so cute
Stop changing my mind
Stop making me guess
I know I’m wasting my time.
But don’t think I don’t notice
When you touch me a little too long.
You can’t say it’s just me
Cause you call when you need to cry
Tell me it’s ok, that it’ll be allright
It’s the way you say goodnight
I’ll tell you when it hurts
It’s when you don’t ask me to stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
I just wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay...
That’s why I think it’s just me.
Stop playing these games
I don’t think you know you’re playing
All I know for sure
Is that I’m losing/I’m losing this game
But you can’t say it’s just me
Cause you call when you need to cry
Tell me it’s ok, that it’ll be allright
It’s the way you say goodnight
I’ll tell you when it hurts
It’s when I ask you to stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
But you don’t wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay...
That’s why I know it’s just me.
One day it won’t be just me...

It'll Turn Around
03:12
|

Life will try to get you down -
Don’t listen to that sound,
Keep looking up.
Sometimes darkness is all you’ll see
Can’t even see what’s in front of me,
But light will come.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
Some days you might feel a little weird
Like you don’t fit in here,
And feel like you never will.
I’ve been there myself, and what I’ve found:
People that are a little different
Make the world go ‘round.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
Never forget that you are loved.
Whoever you are, you are enough.
So never give up.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
