Bluer Skies 03:19
Well my world came crashing down The moment that you left You didn’t plan it out that way But it felt just like theft The things you think are yours to hold Get torn out of your grip They leave you lying on the ground They leave you bleeding from your lip Tell me it will be alright Though it will never be the same Hold me in your arms so tight We’ll see the light another day Whisper words to bring me comfort Wipe the tears out of my eyes The gray clouds are only shadows Obscuring bluer skies You’re never ready for that day The one you hope you’ll never see Then it hits you like a brick And leaves you sifting through debris Unspoken plans suddenly cancel Dreams dashed upon the rocks Things you once thought were for certain Now getting packed up in a box Tell me it will be alright Though it will never be the same Hold me in your arms so tight We’ll see the light another day Whisper words to bring me comfort Wipe the tears out of my eyes The gray clouds are only shadows Obscuring bluer skies Tell me it will be alright Though it will never be the same Hold me in your arms so tight We’ll see the light another day Whisper words to bring me comfort Wipe the tears out of my eyes The gray clouds are only shadows Obscuring bluer skies

It all went south Before I woke You’re breaking my heart Is what she spoke If I could say one more thing I know what it would be Honey, these words come too late To rescue you and me If we could ride off into the sunset And I could hold your hand in mine Then we would never have to wonder Will we make it to the end of time She drifted far Away from me She drifted til I could not see If I could say one more thing I know what it would be Honey, these words come too late To rescue you and me If we could ride off into the sunset And I could hold your hand in mine Then we would never have to wonder Will we make it to the end of time If I could say one more thing I know what it would be Honey, these words come too late To rescue you and me If we could ride off into the sunset And I could hold your hand in mine Then we would never have to wonder Will we make it to the end of time

Remind Me 03:39
When the rain comes down feel like I’m gonna drown And every drop will land inside my lungs When you drive away with nothing much to say Some strange fear says you may not return Hold me close, say that you’ll never go Let your sweet lips just whisper in my ear Kiss me slow, Baby let me know Hold me close, remind me you are near When the wind blows cold and cuts straight through my bones My soul does shake like leaves upon the trees Baby, hold my hand and give me strength to stand I do not think I’ll make it on my own Hold me close, say that you’ll never go Let your sweet lips just whisper in my ear Kiss me slow, Baby let me know Hold me close, remind me you are near Hold me close, say that you’ll never go Let your sweet lips just whisper in my ear Kiss me slow, Baby let me know Hold me close, remind me you are near
