your voice sways the curtains
soft as a breeze
so long since i’ve felt this
i miss you
poetry fails
words grind against
feelings i hide
i love you
and i don’t care
as long as you
as long as you
don’t leave.

ashamed
if You gave me a voice
that all the world could hear
what would i choose to whisper in their ears?
would i talk about You?
i can’t even say
i can’t even say
i’d speak Your name
i’m so ashamed
and if they sentenced You to die
i would not stand by Your side
if they asked me if i know You
i’d deny
would that be a lie?
i can’t even say
i can’t even say
i’d speak Your name
intimacy
intimacy the magic and the fury
of being for you what you are for me
i want to discover, till i can’t remember…
what it was like to have to wonder
your skin, fragile under sunlight
my lips against the sensative spots
the heat of closeness, we stare…
i trace lines through your hair
hands against you
words wait by the bed
what we’re making
can’t be said
shadows squeezed out by our light
making eternal this trembling night
and i close my eyes to hear you try
to feel the full effect of a heavy sigh
and then you laugh
and there we lie
and i never say
goodbye
can’t make me see
i think of everything i’ve said to you
all the promises i swore i’d make true
i can’t put up much of a fight
if i can’t make it through one lonely night
i never used to doubt how much you care
so why do i wonder if you play fair?
it’s hard for hope to go on
without you here to prove me wrong
if i love you
it’s because i choose to
if i love you
it’s because i choose to
you can’t make me see
everything you do for me
so if i love you
i choose to
i can’t find a star up in the sky
everything’s black and i don’t know why
it all looks different in the day
but tonight this fear won’t go away
if you here to hold my hand
maybe then i’d understand
if your words echo’d in my ears
if you suddenly appeared
pennsylvania
so you’re off to pennsylvania
where the horse and buggies roll
you’re off to chase a rainbow
i hope you find a pot of gold
in pennsylvania…
don’t take no shit from anybody
you know what you can do
been there for everybody
now do what’s best for you
in pennsylvania
but before you go
there’s something you should know
you’re never alone, never alone
and always call Texas home
come back from pennsylvania
you’re always welcome here
when the winter snow is heavy
and all the fun has disappeared
from pennsylvania
maybe i’m just jealous
i’ll chase my dream someday
i hope you find your happiness
if you decide to stay
in pennsylvania
half a mind
guy meets girl and doesn’t stand a chance
i’ve sung this song, i’ve done this dance
where i stumble on the edge of hope and fantasy
and fall on reality eventually
but you’re almost enough that i believe
dreams come true and rabbits come from sleeves
and if you don’t know how amazing you are
i’ve half a mind to tell you
beggars and choosers
if beggars can’t be choosers
how can i let you go?
i’ve never heard a yes but i’m
so quick to tell you no
for what? just a shadow i chase
a fantasy i’ve seen on tv
i’m starving but i’m passing on
what you put in front of me
i’m sorry maybe more than i know
but i’ve got to see where this road ends
so hate me if you have to
but i’m just gonna be your friend
woke up
you got drunk again last night
there was no one there to stop you
you danced for all the boys
because they dared you to
i’m ashamed that i was there
but i was so afraid
i convinced myself that they
were your mistakes to make
but i wonder where you woke up…
ok
maybe everything you say is right
mabye i’m just calling to pick a fight
you say i’m scared and i think that’s true
but i’m weaker than i sound to you
sometimes i hold the phone tight to my ear
but i won’t beg for words i need to hear
you tell me tomorrow the sun will rise
just say you’ll stay if i say goodbye
say i’m ok
even if i know it’s true
say i’m ok
i need to hear it from you
this valley will not make me its slave
but i don’t know which command to obey
i know different roads lead to different places
but i’ve shown the world far too many faces
now i’m just so scared of being alone
i know you’re tired of holding the phone
but i’m crying out (why can’t you see)
you have the power to heal me
say i’m ok
even if i know it’s true
i’ll be ok
if i hear it from you
