+ YESTERDAY

Its always this time of year I go to tell you something and realise you're not here Things aren't the same since you've gone Things can't be the same when a part of you is gone

It's always this time of day I think about the time you went away I can't seem to find the words To whisper when I know they won't be heard

But I still see you driving around from time to time One headlight is out, it's out but thats fine There's a feeling inside that won't go away It's the feeling that I get knowing you were here yesterday

Home can be a place, a feeling or a person or a face I felt it in the sun and in the rain But I don't feel it anymore today

Thinking about the way things used to be, it was always you and me Thinking about the things we used to do, I wish I could be back with you

You must think I'm out of my mind and I should just forget But I haven't found a single thing as good as your love yet I know you had to leave but I thought you'd come back Even though there was no evidence of that

+ WHEN WE WERE KIDS

When I was young I had a young mind, I was fearless all the time Didn't know that I could get burned, know that I could get hurt

But it's not the same, things they have changed. Can't go back now I think too much about life and such

Take me back to when we were kids I wanna live like I'm free again Take me back to when we were kids

Now I'm living in my own home, got some kids of my own They're too young to understand what it's like to be a man But if I could say one thing today to my children, It'd be 'don't let your mind leave you behind'

Aint it funny how life has a way of making you feel like you've got nothing to say Even though you once knew how it's in the way that we grow up But even when things go wrong there's a voice inside that keeps us strong It's the one from when we were young...

+ SAME HEART

Tonight’s the night That’s I’m gonna tell you That I’m gonna let you know I’m here for good

Although we’ve been down We’ve been so high together We’ve made it far enough To never turn back

It’s time to let you know...

We’re just the same heart Under the same stars We got a head start we can make it last

We know not what to do But we know we will get through I’m fighting for you You’re fighting for me too

I remember being on the floor In the first flat we had I laid on my back Looking at the roof

I closed my eyes And in that moment in time I knew I couldn’t stay But I couldn’t leave without you

And when you said we had to go I didn’t need to be asked twice We gave away all our stuff And left the next night

And the next thing I knew We were in another city But damn, you look so pretty When you’re that happy

It was only you and me...

We’re just the same heart Under the same stars 9 out if 10 bars We’ve been everywhere

We never know how to start But We’re lead by the same heart Sometimes need a jump start But we’ve made it through

Now we’re back home After 10 years away I wouldn’t change a day That we’ve had

Cause every day that we had Was full of moments that made me glad And even though I’m back I’m glad I’m here with you

Yeah, we’re getting old But this love shows no signs of ceasing I’ll still never need convincing That it’ll always grow

And every day I thank the stars...

We’re still the same heart Under the same stars We’re back home at last For better or worse

There’s nothing we can’t do I’ll do anything for you I’d go anywhere with you Cause you’d go with me too

+ THIS OLD ROAD

This old road that I’ve been on got me repeating the same song I’m covered in red dirt Just sweat through my last shirt

I’m convinced this time that it’ll be Different once Im back in the city Not gonna go back down, I’m gonna make sure that I’m holding out For something good

I can already feel the pace I’m nervous and it’s showing in my face 6 years without you near But now I’m wondering why I’m here

I was walking now I’m running to your door Although you might not recognise me anymore But I’m just the same guy, you might remember why I left left last time But now I’m back and I want to do this right I’m committed and Im different this time It’s taken me this long to realise I was wrong and you were right I’m home tonight

I’m not asking you to say That things will just go back to the same way they were All I’m hoping that you’ll do Is let me in to talk to you

Whatever the outcome may be Whether or not I stay in the city At least I know that I’ve tried To do the thing that I thought was right

But there’s a part of me that longs to be on the move It’s the part of me that first let me to you I guess Id rather Run than build a place to stay, it’s just the way This man was made

+ THE OLD ESTATE

I'm heading out for a couple of days, just a little getaway I'm not trying to run away but I won't be back till next Friday It's not like the living's hard But everybody needs to part from what they do Everybody's gotta leave sometimes to find some place with clearer skies

I never thought I'd feel so good only eating tinned food Ocean swims, salt on the rims of the old estate that we drove here in

I'm taking time to read and write and re-learn what I am inside I'm giving it some time today, I'm giving time for a getaway We don't need our raincoats, we don't need our shoes We won't be bringing anything that we can't afford to lose

I never thought It'd be this nice, we're having the time of our lives

I get nervous sometimes thinking we could easily just slide back into our old ways when we're back in normal lives We can't be too busy, do too much. We need to slow it down and live like we're on holidays when we get back to town

I never thought I'd feel so free sleeping next to the sea

+ TINY PARCELS

Looking back, nothing mattered but where we were at In our lives we were drawing line, we were making plans Nothing's wrong but it wasn't long before you came along 2 blue eyes, feet the size of tiny parcels

Now nothing will ever be the same for you and me Once was 2, now there's 3

It took some time but I realised that there's nothing like this Early mornings, watching the sunrise and drinking coffee on the beach But the time same for us to re-arrange and make room

Your eyes were just like hers and you smile the way she does You're here and I feel so secure

It's so healing to find a feeling of completeness I was not expecting but you came perfecting us, you gave us the final peice

And now I know what this life is for, it's for giving yourself to those you love...

I would not be who I was if I didn't have you I could not go back because I wouldn't have you You've changed the way I think about everything I do Now there's 3 lights in my world, because I have you

+ APARTMENT LIFE

Hang your clothes out to dry The clothes line makes a great divide I see you there but I close my eyes Im scared what you might find inside

i havent heard a voice in days My lover shes in another place I feel im being left behind Guess Im tried of this apartment life

Theres a bird out on the brick walk way I dont mind it breaks up the day I dont wanna be rude but I just have to say Can you give me your wings so I can fly away

it makes me wonder it makes me stare and wonder if theres a world out there it could be rainy it could be i cant tell because im locked inside

+ GIANTS AND ANTS

I will walk along this track I won't stop walking till I get back Or till you find me down the way Or till I find myself again

See I've been drifting far away Away from the man that I became Now I know it's time that I went back And that's why I'm walking down this track

To find my home in a sea of travellers To find my home with complacent strangers/in a world of strangers There's got to be more, there's got to be more, there's got to be more Than this

Do you ever stop and stare At all of the people who live here At all of the ways that they behave And make all they're lives all look the same

I think it's time for me to change I've traded myself an early grave I'll rise up above forgiven stares Until I can find my anywhere

Among giants and ants is where I lay At the end of each and every day I'm not either one of these I am at one, I am at peace

+ 31.5

Back to school again I can’t wait to hang out with my friends It’s been a long hot summer here Now I’m ready to reappear

I just met a girl My ma told me she’s the greatest in the world She seems ok to me It’s just how a relationship should be, I spose

If I could go back Would I change the way I was I think that I’d go back, just because

Now it’s time to leave Get myself a job or a degree Let’s not think too much Being young shouldn’t feel like part of growing up

Knowing what I know now Would I have changed path I walked down Give myself some more time To think about the future, I might

I woke up today I thought about the time that’s run away 31 point 5 Feeling every minute, every second I’ve been alive

But I wouldn’t change a thing Every scar I bear is a badge of what I’ve seen And there’s still more ahead, for me
