Believe in Trees

Nothing's familiar, but nothing changed
The sun's still setting, but it's not rising the same
I finally had something figured out
I should've known I'd be let down
They call what I did a leap of faith
I believed in something and I guess they call that brave
Now I'm not sure if it was real
So I'm done wanting what I can't feel
I can't keep living my life believing what I've believed
I can't touch you or the sky, so I'll believe in trees
There is no arrow to point the way
No path I can follow that always ends up with me safe
Do you blame me, if I decide
To do what I need to to survive
I see the sky, I see the sky
I see my life, I see my life
I see the light, I see the light
This is my life, this is my life
I can't keep living my life letting you do this to me

A Changed Man

Darling, would you believe what you just said
If it were someone else saying it instead
You’re one of the worst liars I’ve ever known
You don’t love me, you hate being alone
I'm sorry isn't a dozen roses
With thorns lying in wait
You can't fool me by saying you need me
When all you do is take
Spare me the lines, I know who you are
I'll save you the time, 'cause unlike before
I won't fall for your love again
Baby, you can dress up in fancy clothes
Put on the most impressive show
But you can’t fake a changed man
I know there is a good man underneath
But I'm tired of you hiding him from me
So I won’t wait around for you to realize
That you're tearing down every good thing in my life
You say it'll be different
But you can't do it without me
Baby, you should've thought about that
Before you lost what you had in me
I love you babe
That’s one thing that will never change
Enough to leave
And let you learn from falling flat
On your face

I Never Lived Before You

I was born seven days ago on the North Shore’s edge
Took my first breath on a bench next to Lake Michigan
You were a light shining into my eyes when I couldn't see
Everything that I'd heard about being in love was in front of me
Your eyes said welcome to your life
I never lived, I never lived before you
I never loved, I never loved before you
I never laughed, I never laughed before you
I never lived before you
There was a time in my previous life where I thought that I
Had felt what it was to say that I was in love, I felt so alive
But is love really love if it isn't enough, if it fades away
One minute it's gone and you're left holding on to a memory
Until you feel what love's supposed to be
Oh, it feels like I'm waking up
Oh, it feels like I'm waking up for you

No Fear of Falling
04:15

I've said goodbye and not meant it
Ran out of wine while running from it
That fear that kept me hiding
From feeling like I'm feeling with you
I've felt a hand but never held it
Told the truth but never admitted
I was so afraid of falling
I felt safer being lonely until you
I saw your face and everything changed
Now I have no fear of falling
I've been hurt, you said I'm sorry
I've made mistakes, you said don't worry
Because that's what led you to find me
And I don't want perfect, I want perfect for me
You made it OK for everything to change
You can love me, because baby I'm yours
When you hate me, baby I'll still be yours
I'll love you, I'll hate you, but baby I'm yours, baby I'm yours

Keep moving, keep walking, keep breathing, keep talking
If you stop then I won't start again
I'm broken, unsteady, I'm scared and I'm not ready
To face the world I've been left in
I know you want to help
But nothing can right now
Life will be normal again
That’s what you don’t say
Time will help your heart mend
That’s what you don’t say
Please don’t say what you can’t know
Just take my hand and don’t let go
I’m sorry, friend
That’s what you could say
I know you mean well when you tell me my life won't end
That may be true, but it's not the point
'Cause what's life without living, and how do you live if you're dying
From all the pain your heart is in
Don't try so hard to help
I just need a friend right now
I know, I know the wind will blow and
This storm will pass someday but
I don't, I don't need to hear you say so

One Inch Away
03:19

Every time I see you boy
I sit and stare, eyes wide
Somehow it always feels like
The first and last time
We've always wanted something more
Never at the same time
That's why I'm frozen, standing still
As your lips move toward mine
I try to close my eyes
We are one inch away
Shocked that it's not too late
I never imagined after all our chances I'd finally say
We are one inch away
We've been alive and we've been dead
We've been in love, we've been friends
We've given up hope, whispered, "the end"
Then circled back again
There was nothing new about tonight
'Til something in your eyes
Caused the flame to reignite
Now they're an inch from mine
I won't pull away this time
I thought that you'd be the one
Who got away from me
I thought I'd be the one who
Got away from you

I have this on vinyl and, without exception, if I play it when friends come over someone stops mid conversation and asks "Who IS this?" Very lovely.

Incredible soundscapes, music that transports you to another perspective. Gives me a whole new appreciation for sound engineering for piano.
