I Should be Loving You 04:36
lyrics
Sometimes the wishing well gets a hole and out the bottom they all go I wanna be your tambourine when you shake me to the bone and this feels a lot like home and you can hear it in that old familiar tone the red dress you laid upon my eyes is tearing up my mind when i should just be loving you I always say whats on my mind but you can see it in my eyes sometimes the little things get your goat can't we all just get past the bullshit I wanna be your big bass drum when your heart beats loud and low and this feels a lot like home and you can hear it in the guitar tone I'm a sucker for a girl in red and she's tearing up my mind when i should be loving you and I wanna be straight with you this time but you can see it in my eyes

lyrics
taken by surprise never would have known from the look in your eyes maybe we could restart your old pick up truck parked in the yard baby if you take my car and drive it away well don't go too far cause the wheels start to shake every time you take my heart out of park and the strangest things happen more often than not oh when your around I like a we go out parking eight track stereo sound maybe I'm living in the past but that's when all the good things got built to last taken by surprise never would have known from the look in your eyes maybe we could restart your old pick up truck parked in the yard baby if you take my car and drive it away well don't go too far cause the wheels start to shake every time you take my heart out of park barrel down the road while we spiral through space got a trunk full of gold smoking more then we make maybe I'm living in the past Lets just keep on driving till we run outta gas

Pulling on my Heart 05:02
lyrics
heads go hollow the pulse begins play a game of tug get their souls dug in i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart heads go hollow the pulse begins play a game of tug get their souls dug in you cant play by yourself which you seldom are you wanna take everything and pull it all apart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart the dead go follow when the pulse quickens play the war drum let the beat begin but you cant play by yourself which you seldom are you wanna take everything and pull it all apart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart i can feel you pulling on my heart

Lights 04:08
lyrics
see the way she shines filling up my eyes take me to the bottom of the roller coaster ride cherries from the well they told me was running dry I've been keeping tabs with my homies and i notice a little something extra down inside starlight through my window light up my life black cat cross my shadow light up my life songbird sing soprano light up my life the stains made by your halo light up my life we tend crawl then walk up right and we pretend that its all... its alright and I've been chained to the walls inside my mind the soil in hands the sand of time

I row I row upstream never seem to get where I'm trying to be don't row me home she said romeo don't go home and your so mysterious I've been told I'm a total mess i guess so but Julie I wont go home i miss walking in the rain out on the tracks i could risk a little rain on my back if you would give me just a chance i would show you that its just a matter of time we can sit out on the porch or the stairs and laugh i could walk you to the store and you could walk me back she just said romeo romeo don't go home

lyrics
sitting on this stool and I'm down to my last two dollars suddenly I saw an angel out of the blue I tried not to look surprised but my throat dried and my jaw dropped wide i had to bite my lip and try to play it cool then i saw a twinkle in her eye turned to see if she was looking at some other guy when i turned back and saw that face again' i knew for sure i just met my next ex girlfriend i should've left before i caught her name saved her a heartache and me a little change but before i knew it i was buying her a drink i'm a sucker for a girl in red by next year she'll just wanna be friends if i knew what was good I'd've got up and ran
