City Of Wandering Souls Just a soul in the fog in the morning light Stranded on the side of the sea trying to find my right And I made friends with faceless strangers Ignoring the signs that all said danger Now I walk in the City Of Wandering Souls An endless journey to nowhere homes You can feel alright if you pretend tonight That the smiles hide the demons inside They hide inside Hold your head high little one Memories of a past life come undone Now gray what once blue Are the skies that now cover you And I walk in the City Of Wandering Souls An endless journey to nowhere homes You can feel alright just pretend tonight That the smiles hide the demons inside Oh they hide inside, hide inside Don’t let em loose, Keep em locked inside Don’t lead them out into the light Don’t leave them for someone to find Walk through the night, feel no life Don’t let em loose, Keep em locked inside Don’t lead them out into the light Don’t leave them for someone to find Grab your demons, hold on tight And I walk in the City Of Wandering Souls An endless journey to nowhere homes You can feel alright just pretend tonight That the smiles hide the demons inside Oh they hide inside, hide inside

Bywater Haze 04:26
Bywater Haze Look at me with brown eyes and see Babe it’s just me wanting to be Caught up in that great big smile Oh lord it’s been awhile If there ever was at all Cause these are our days By the water haze Watching ships like life Pass us by Cause these are our days By the water haze Watching ships like life pass us by Slippery rocks make it hard to stand If you should fall babe I got your hand I’ll be right there for you And if your fire should start to rage Well I will dance to start the rain I will tame the flame the best I can Cause these are our days By the water haze Watching ships like life pass us by Cause these are our days By the water haze Watching ships like life pass us by Look at me with brown eyes and see Babe it’s just me wanting to be

Embers 05:31
Embers Oh your embers Still burns today And even the winds of change Can’t blow this fire away And I can’t sleep alone I need someone in my bed Cause your ghost just keeps me up all night Rattling chains, calling my name and filling up my head So please darlin Please won’t you tell me What am i supposed to do To get over you To get over you Cause I keep going out Try to find something new But everywhere i turn i see your face And hear the sounds that are echoes of you I wear a smile on my face When I’m walking through the town Cause I don’t need a stranger asking me Oh if it’s you that’s bringing me down So please darlin Please won’t you tell me What am i supposed to do To get over you To get over you To get over you To get over you Cause no matter how hard i try I can’t get you off my mind Cause your embers Still burn, oh they burn I can’t put them out So please darlin Please won’t you tell me What am i supposed to do To get over you Get over you To get over you To get over you

In The Garden I saw you from the cafe Across the street I watched as you Turned and waved at me You walked towards me And I felt my heart beat As I awkwardly looked Down at my feet You said hello and said your name I said nice to meet you and then said the same You asked will you walk with me if you got time And I said darling for you I am free all night So, let’s take a walk through the garden tonight I want to see the flowers bloom when I am by your side Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright In your eyes, so bright, so bright, in your eyes And so we walk Down the street and talk About the life we live And how we fit in Stopped along the way Took a picture of the day And i grabbed your hand So I could say Let’s take a walk through the garden tonight I want to see the flowers bloom when I am by your side Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright In your eyes, so bright, so bright, in your eyes Feels like, feels like, feels like a movie scene Feels like, feels like, feels like we’re in a dream Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright Let’s take a walk through the garden tonight I want to see the flowers bloom when I am by your side Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright In your eyes so bright, so bright, in your eyes Oh the lights they’ll shine like stars so bright in your eyes

When It’s All Done I close my eyes So I can see you You showed me everything That love can do You take my hand I follow down This busy street On through the crowd What will we see Where will you lead What will be when it’s all done What will we see Where will you lead What will be when it’s all done On through the night We make our way Under neon light We refuse to stay Up on the balcony Away from it all The world in front of me You refuse to talk What will we see Where will you lead What will be when it’s all done What will we see Where will you lead What will be when it’s all done Love like a drug through my veins Hiding all my pains Getting more addicted as you’re calling my name Feels like I am high Look into my eyes Wondering where we’ll be at the end of the night What will we see Where will you lead What will be when it’s all done when it’s all done when it’s all done when it’s all done when it’s all done

Tied Up In Knots Your love is a puzzle to me I struggle to finding the right piece You’re holding me captive with words that you say I pray that this rope starts to fray Whenever it starts to unwind I find myself stuck in a bind You got me tangled and mangled the harder I fought You got me tied up in knots I’m saying ooooh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me And no matter how hard I fight You keep holding me tight I’m tied up in knots Back and forth we go You keep telling me yes and whispering no How do I know which side I should join You keep flipping that one sided coin Whenever it starts to unwind I find myself stuck in a bind You got me tangled and mangled the harder I fought You got me tied up in knots I’m saying ooooh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me And no matter how hard I fight You keep holding me tight I’m tied up in knots I’m saying ooooh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me oh Tied up in knots Your love has got me And no matter how hard I fight You keep holding me tight I’m tied up in knots

Ghost In The Graveyard There’s a ghost in the graveyard I saw from the corner of my eye And my heart jumped deep inside I tried to run away There was no place to hide Underneath the full moon light Please don’t go I heard him say As he called out my name He called out my name Keeps calling my name My name, my name Keeps calling my name My name, my name And he said He once had a girl that he loved Like an angel from above And he knew she was the one As they danced through the night They held each other tight But the morning oh it came And it took her away Now he’s calling her name He’s calling her name Keeps calling her name Her name, her name Keeps calling her name Her name, her name He curses out to the sky Oh please tell me why Without her life’s just not the same So take my soul now I’ll go now so They call out his name They call out his name They call out his name His name, his name They call out his name His name, his name After his story was told I said goodbye and started home But before I reached the gate I fell into a hole I was desperate to escape When I looked and saw the stone Above that shallow grave Was written my name Was written my name Was written my name My name, my name Was written my name My name, my name There’s a ghost in the graveyard Sometimes you will see That ghost is really me

Jazzy Sunday Sunday morning When we come alive Make some coffee for the noon time When the sun is hanging high Feel the wind blow On in through that open door I’m sittin next to my baby On the living room floor Cause it’s a day A day for doing nothing A day full of loving Whoa while the radio plays Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Makes me feel like I am home Makes me feel like I am home As the afternoon Rolls into the evening I grab some glasses we’re drinking Old whiskey and wine Now we’re dancing My baby she’s laughing We’re gettin tipsy we’re jazzin We’ll hit the bed when we fall down Cause it’s a day A day for doing nothing A day full of loving Whoa while the radio plays Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Makes me feel like I am home Makes me feel like I am home Well I don’t know What Monday’s gonna bring But I sure do love this Jazzy Sunday thing With my baby and me Cause it’s a day A day for doing nothing A day full of loving Whoa while the radio plays Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Cause Sunday, whoa Sunday Radio Keeps playing that sweet jazz of old Makes me feel like I am home Makes me feel like I am home Makes me feel like I am home

Magnolias 04:00
Magnolias Have you been to the city When the magnolias bloom And sunbeams hit petals That fall down on you And for a moment It’s the only thing around When magnolias bloom In this town And all you can do is cry As you watch the birds start to fly And all you can do is let out a sigh Cause you caught a moment in time And happiness Lives under a tree As the sun casts shadows That dance at your feet As you carefully Step over cracks in your path Oh you smile You love you laugh And all you can do is cry As you watch the birds start to fly And all you can do is let out a sigh Cause you caught a moment in time And all you can do is cry As you watch the birds start to fly And all you can do is let out a sigh Cause you caught a moment in time Have you been to the city When the magnolias bloom And sunbeams hit petals That fall down on you And for a moment It’s the only thing around When magnolias bloom In this town And for a moment It’s the only thing around When magnolias bloom In this town
