Well its just like you
To always want what you couldn't have
And there's just so much
That I could never give to you
So I packed my bags and left the only home
I've ever known
I can't keep falling apart like this
Begging you to pick up the pieces
And put this mess back together

northern hemisphere
Yea it took a little over twenty years
But I finally got you here
And this northern hemisphere
Just isn't as empty anymore
Even though I'm more of a gamble
Than that sea
You still took a chance on me
We could spend all night
Listening to that moon sing
And when morning lights
I'd bring you home with me
To that little tree off center street
I used to write lullaby's
For those broken hearted lovers of mine
But they're still crying
So I left them with Gregory and Evelyn
But don't worry, I'll send them
A fine farewell saying all is well
Just tell them I've got a girl in mind
And not enough time
We could spend all night
Listening to that moon sing
And when morning lights
I'd bring you home with me
To that little tree off center street
And if Sunday comes
And I'm still not back
I'm not as far gone
As you think
But I finally got you here
And this northern hemisphere
Just isn't as empty anymore
Even though I'm more of a gamble
Than that sea
You still took a chance on me
We could spend all night
Listening to that moon sing
And when morning lights
I'd bring you home with me
To that little tree off center street
I used to write lullaby's
For those broken hearted lovers of mine
But they're still crying
So I left them with Gregory and Evelyn
But don't worry, I'll send them
A fine farewell saying all is well
Just tell them I've got a girl in mind
And not enough time
We could spend all night
Listening to that moon sing
And when morning lights
I'd bring you home with me
To that little tree off center street
And if Sunday comes
And I'm still not back
I'm not as far gone
As you think

in our minds
My biggest regrets
Have always been the what ifs
In my head
And all the things I never said
Missed one too many opportunities
And I know its asking a lot
For you to wait for me
We never were the patient type
Saw the sorrow in your eyes
From all the problems that I've caused
But as long as you keep fighting
I'll be by your side
The room's a little dark
But theres a light on the horizon
As soon as we make it out
I can be yours and you can be mine
Seems like every day we spend together
Keeps threatening to unravel
And all the things we've worked towards
Keep trying to tear us apart
But we've traveled too far
To lose hope now
But if this what it takes
I won't mind making my own grave
If its what saves us for another day
Have always been the what ifs

bucket list/dreams
Got this bucket full of dreams
And it just seems that i'll never finish
Any of them
I know its a bit pessimistic
But its so much harder to be an optimist
So instead i'll live my dreams through you
Watch you finish the things i never could
So i keep looking to the sky
Waiting for a new direction
Doing what i can to get by
Watch as others inspect my life
Keep wondering when things will change
And counting down the days
Till I'm not a stranger anymore
Well my imagination keeps me occupied
Takes my focus off the things i never tried
I'm living my life through day dreams
And it seems
That the world is just too hard to live in these days
So i'm building a new one
and I don't care what they say
Cause when its done
They'll all want to join me
And it just seems that i'll never finish
Any of them
I know its a bit pessimistic
But its so much harder to be an optimist
So instead i'll live my dreams through you
Watch you finish the things i never could
So i keep looking to the sky
Waiting for a new direction
Doing what i can to get by
Watch as others inspect my life
Keep wondering when things will change
And counting down the days
Till I'm not a stranger anymore
