Hopeless Romantic

Round 1:
The moment I hit the ground
You finally met my eyes
So tonight ill sleep soundly
Free of those dreams of mine
Rubber soled city strangers
Glance as they pass my by
Too high a price to wager
Everything on the line
Round 2:
Simple small talk
Take my mind off
All those things I’d
Set my sights on
Lonely nights
No hill to die on
Then you said my name
Round 3:
Now I got all this love
Staining the pavement
Pouring out my chest
I knew that I’d lose my head
One of these days
That start like all the rest
What if I raced my mind
Two cities over
Rogue and self possessed
What if I scraped my body off of the pavement
Take what little’s left

Pass on by, oh the seconds astound me
When your eyes met mine
I lost my mind, just for you to claim you found it
But it feels like you don’t want me
‘Less my heads on the wrong way round
Just when I wanna love you
You decide you love me not
I don’t wanna control you
or give everything that I got
Just when I wanna know you
You couldn’t entertain the thought
Has no one ever told you
A little love ain’t ’sposed be this hard
Crimson wine, morning light finds me aching
And the wind stings cold in my summer clothes
Oh you love to keep my waiting
Cuz it feels like you don’t want me
You just don’t wanna be all alone
Just when I wanna love you
You decide you love me not
I don’t wanna control you
or give everything that I got
Just when I wanna know you
You couldn’t entertain the thought
Has no one ever told you
A little love ain’t ’sposed be this hard

Backseat

I’m alone in my car in the backseat
with your fingers a cage round my hand
Have I said quite enough
in my silence around all your friends?
oh your stare burns a hole in my shoulder
Guess I’m finally taking a stand
Babe I know that I’m older
but i quake in my boots like a kid
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
At the bar taking shots with a smile
I’ll admit that I care what they think
You were drunk on your power
Never once took a sip of our drinks
I’m alone in a room full of people
and I’m rinsing my wounds in the sink
babe I know it’s all kosher
pouring salt just to see if it stings
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think you’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think you’ve had enough tonight
can’t let you go you drive fast
I drive slow baby
nobody knows how I’m feeling
I feel so
Hollow, empty baby
you walk straight through me
I’m whisper screaming to the walls
They hear me more than
You, can’t let me go
You drive fast
I drive slow baby
Nobody knows how I’m feeling
I feel so
Hollow, empty baby
You look straight through me
I’m whisper screaming to the walls
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think I’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think you’ve had enough tonight
Ooooh think youve had enough tonight

Julia, Baby

give me a moment
It seems I’ve grown rusty, left out in the open
helplessly hoping
give me a second
its not my intention to just keep you guessin
Dodging the question,
oh he keeps on asking me why
heart on his sleeve with this look in his eyes
Either making him feel like he’s flying
Or dying
He said Julia baby
You’re trying to change me
You gotta decide if you love me or hate me
Now we’ve barely spoken
You go through the motions, why?
He said Julia baby
You’re making me crazy
I’m losing my grip on the pulse of us lately
I need some emotion
It’s not your heart you’re holding , it’s mine
Imperfectly patient
Please let me go, don’t just sit around waiting
I hate that I hate it
I hate this
oh he keeps on asking me why
heart on his sleeve with this look in his eyes
Can’t tell if he feels like he’s flying
Or dying
He said Julia baby
You’re trying to change me
You gotta decide if you love me or hate me
Now we’ve barely spoken
You go through the motions, why?
He said Julia baby
You’re making me crazy
I’m losing my grip on the pulse of us lately
I need some emotion
It’s not your heart you’re holding , it’s mine
baby it’s mine, mine
X4
He said Julia baby
You’re trying to change me
You gotta decide if you love me or hate me
Now we’ve barely spoken
You go through the motions
