Rag Apple Blossoms

When the winter gets cold
I guess I'll need someone to hold
And this time she wont be one to break my heart
cos what I can recall
from the summer and the fall
are just colors turned to find me on my knees
And Maybe
she'll tell me she wont ever leave
or maybe she'll just stay until the spring
I'm just scared of whats coming
but I hate the things i've got
its more than just the seasons changing sides
but the rag apple blossoms
don't keep falling on me now
I'm better than I was when I came down
And maybe
she'll tell me she wont ever leave
or maybe she'll just stay until the spring

Little Birds

Cos I miss you even more
every time you come to mind
it happens less with time
it happens less with time
and i want you even more
every time your on my mind
but this time you're not mine
yeah these days you're not mine
But birds can't nest when winds are changing
winter draws them south with time
and trees can't shelter out of season
birds who've lost their peace of mind.
yeah these mornings tend to bring
different memories to my mind
they used to make me smile
you used to make me smile
and each song i write reminds me
of other simpler times
like days when you were mine
those days when you were mine
But birds can't nest when winds are changing
winter draws them south with time
and trees can't shelter out of season
birds who've lost their peace of mind.
so pack up all your bags
and take each sunset in your stride
i'll be here killing time
just watching birds pass by
and i'll think of you each time
a certain starling sings her line
she sings of days that passed me by
these days keep passing by

It Kills Me Every Time
03:22
|

Catch a cup of coffee with me any time of day
and tell me how you didn't want it to be this way
tell me why its wrong to want one person to yourself
and tell me why you're never gonna stay
But it kills me every time you touch his face
kills me every time you kiss his mouth
I pretend that I don't know
But who am I fooling
cos I know what you do when you leave town
Roll over in the morning and tell me exactly how you're feeling
its always so much different than the night before
there's always someone else who you are also scared of losing
I'm just another body on your killing floor.
But it kills me every time you touch his face
kills me every time you kiss his mouth
I pretend that I don't know
But who am I fooling
cos I know what you do when you leave town

I Want You
02:59
|
|||
Everybody thinks its true
they think i'm going out with you
but i don't know what you've got
on your mind
Do you want me like I am
a steady friend with a steady hand
whose always there to catch you
when you fall
I don't know what i should want
but I'm pretty sure that its what I'd want
cos i want you
if you want me
I guess I'm on a losing streak
you little girls have got me beat
and i don't know just how to take it
in stride
All you girls are all the same
you keep me playing guessing games
when i just want to be with you
tonight
I don't know what i should want
but I'm pretty sure that its what I'd want
cos i want you
if you want me
