Love, I can’t believe it's been so long since we first laid here. It's almost warm outside, can you feel it? I'm forging from my throat; words might be stuck there. I'm just stuck here I'll give it my best shot, just stay near. When you’re looking at yourself in the mirror, do you see grey lines or color? Cause I see oceans upon oceans of beauty. Is this god's view? Cause love, your perfect. I know you'd like to think I'm a liar, that I'm reckless, or suspicious. But maybe I'm still holding true to the romantic side of everyone that we don't see. Baby don't go back to November. It's so damn cold, it's depressing. Let's feel the hot wet sand with our dark warm hands and just rescue what love we once knew. Baby don’t set sail in that black air. This water won’t remember your name. Let’s stay in tonight, girl this feels just right. We can rescue what love we once knew. I love you. You know that I love you.

This Is Us 05:14
Fragile words have stormed from my mouth, but love has taken me away. I've been afar and back to hear your voice, but now my father is leading me away. Don't run away, don't run away. Cause tonight we are the same and this is love. We were meant to be, meant to be. I'm holding you, you're holding me. This is a masterpiece to be. This is us, I'm holding your hand, you're holding my heart. This is love. This is us, I'm holding your heart, you're holding my hand. This is love. This is us, I'm kissing your lips, I'm touching your hair. This is love. This is us, you're kissing my lips, you're touching my hair. This is love This is love, love.

By day we would walk the park, time would collapse, holding you in my arms. This picture hangs behind my head. Gleaming down the sun so bright, water runs through this precious light. Where were our hands? And this, this is how the story goes, a boy meets a girl, the girl turns away. And this, this is how you broke my heart day by day on your dark masquerade. Picture this day, the dream of our lives, we are bound so closely and intertwined. Where were our lies? These steady blue skies reflect in both your eyes. And this, this is how the story goes, a boy meets a girl, the girl turns away. And this, this is how you broke my heart day by day on your dark masquerade. This is your dark, your masquerade. And this, this is how the story goes, a boy meets a girl, the girl turns away. And this, this is how you broke my heart day by day on your dark masquerade. (we were sitting under your green tree next to the sea and we were in love, and on the next day we walked by the shore. I want you more then you could know) (What do they say about me when I'm loved perfectly? and oh, the way. And what will they say about me when I'm gone all the way?)

Come dear, lets walk the ocean ground, where I love began and the willows wed. Let's swim into the sea, where we lay our heads in our sandy beds. The resolution of the sun would swallow up the sea and drag us through the clouds. Sparkles ran across your face and we sang so high into the morning sky again. Learn to sing, learn to sing yourself to sleep. I was yours and you were mine and everyone was singing songs about our love, and how trite it has become now. God holds you so high, the little star that shines above my sky, how bright you have become now. This is the last time that I will sing for you. My tears have all fallen down in the pit where you lay for now. My dreams have all come true, a picture that's painted black and blue. My ashes have burned out loud, but they won't be touching ground. Learn to sing, Learn to sing yourself to sleep. Learn to sing, learn to sing yourself to sleep. I was yours and you were mine, and everyone was singing songs about our love, and how trite you have become now. God holds you so high the little bird that flies above my sky, oh how high you have become now.

about

These are songs I have made at the most emotional and crucial turning points in my life. I have always written music for myself, to get my thoughts and emotions down on something. Sharing them is a new thing for me. I hope you enjoy.
