You & Me
I have this re-occurring dream
Of you and me
And it’s so so serene
We’re in a boat out on the sea
Just you and me
And the world’s been blown to smithereens
You
You and me
We’re all that’s left or so it seems
Just you and me
Ten tons of kerosine
Against this backdrop of debris
It’s just you and me
The shore’s are burning tangerine
You
You and me
Now you are Adam, I am Eve
Just you and me
Underneath that apple tree
It’s up to us now don’t you see
Just you and me
The birds and the bees
You
You and me

Fine
You’re not always right, you don’t always know
There’s nothin to fix if it ain’t broke
You don’t wanna dig, got nothing to show
Guess I’m just here to lighten the load
I’m fine on my own
Cause I learned to be alone
I’m fine on my own
Just fine all alone
I’m fine on my own
Cause I learned to be alone
I’m fine on my own
So call me when you’ve grown
Don’t think twice, don’t think at all
Just cut the cord and let it all go
I’ll break the bone, break it clean
I’m not who you make me out to be
I’m fine on my own
Cause I learned to be alone I’m fine on my own
Just fine all alone
I’m fine on my own
Cause I learned to be alone I’m fine on my own
So call me when you’ve grown

Hermit Crab
I dreamt I was a hermit crab
Everything was on my back
Only ruled by the moon and the tide
The moon and tide
I was lost on dry land
Felt the pull of the sand
I’ve run across the ocean floor
But I’m not sure what I’m searching for
What I’m searching for
I dreamt I was a hermit crab
Everything was on my back
Only ruled by the moon and the tide
The moon and tide

Piece by Piece
A weekly thrift store drop
Decade worth of things forgot
Quilts and cards and picture frames
A Christmas stocking with your name
Piece by piece
I moved out of our life
And a little closer to mine
You said it all in your note
How hard it was to let me go
But if I should change my mind
You’d be there to give it a try
Piece by piece
I moved out of our life
And a little closer to mine
Now you’re calling on the phone
Talking about where we went wrong
And we’re both spinning lies
Like we’re fine, we’re doing alright
Piece by piece
I moved out of our life
And a little closer to mine
Just a little closer to mine

Tina
You wanna quit her but you can’t
You wish you could talk to her but she doesn’t understand
You tried to leave her but she had other plans
Tina
Now she’s got her hooks in deep
Try to escape her, come apart at the seams
Gotta keep her happy but it don’t come cheap
Tina
She filled you up with all her needs
Now you’re just part of her disease
Say goodbye to the man you could've been
Tina
There’s no one left around to blame
We cut our losses, walked away
Left you calling, calling out her name
Tina

Wait For Me
I put an ocean between us
I tried my best to fight this
But you’re my nightly dream
Seven days a week
I’m homesick for you honey
Say you’ll wait for me
Wait for me
And I know it’s cliche
But it was pouring rain
When you said don’t think twice
This is better than being dry
I’m homesick for you honey
Say you’ll wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me
I’m homesick for you honey
Say you’ll wait for me
Wait for me
Now my heart is skipping beats
Cause you’re taking the lead
And I wanna say it first
Those three little words
Won’t you wait for me
Say you’ll wait for me
Wait for me

Not Today
It’s too good to be true
That’s what they say anyway
The other shoe will drop
And that’s when you’ll pay
Because in time, the bottom will drop out
And in time, one of us will stray
Oh in time, the bottom will drop out
But not today
Not today
Is it emerald green
On the other side
I wanna see it
With my own eyes
Because in time, the bottom will drop out
And in time, one of us will stray
Oh in time, the bottom will drop out
But not today
Not today
Just because it shines
Doesn’t make it gold
How do you know
When to push or pull
Because in time, the bottom will drop out
And in time, one of us will stray
Oh in time, the bottom will drop out
But not today
Not today

No Matter How Far
Her and I
We had the big bands
Her and I
We had the music man
Her and I
We didn’t give a damn
Her and I
When I feel she’s too far away
I just let that Glen Miller record play
There’s a stairway to the stars
If I could find it, I would climb it
No matter how far
Her and I
We had cigarettes and scotch
Her and I
We could talk and talk and talk
Her and I
We sang a lot
Her and I
When I feel she’s too far away
I just let that Glen Miller record play
There’s a stairway to the stars
If I could find it, I would climb it
No matter how far
