Two Minds 03:21
it's gonna take a long time you should've started earlier they're gonna laugh when they realize you're only a pretender what will you do? will you stay where it's comfortable? will you carve out some room? there's always space at the table for you how do you get there anyway? isn't it already too late? everybody's finished the race and you're just startin' but you try all the same begin again and again it'll take as long as it takes that's all you can do

driving all around the town in that limousine headlights rolling on the ground with the windows down summer breeze like a picture on a screen like a drug store magazine and i’m somewhere in between waking and dreaming we do what we have to do to make it through the midnight hours time stands helpless when we kiss interlocking fingertips i can’t bring myself to say watch that old love slip away you’re a friend i never see you’re a long apology but i’m somewhere in between waking and dreaming we do what we have to do to make it through the midnight hours (with you) we do what we have to do to make it through the midnight hours'
3.
eyes closed against the passenger window everything in slow motion barefoot high heels in hand and i’m stumbling home to him my blue jean baby don’t worry baby a love like yours will do me in tv static and hazy a dreamer of pictures and moonlight everyone knows that you’re headline news baby but stumble back home to me my blue jean baby don’t worry baby a love like yours will do me in
4.
Sunshine 03:18
sunshine (baby) you bring the sunshine (baby) you make my heart beat (heavy) whenever you’re near laughter (baby) that’s what i’m after (baby) see you smilin’ back at me and my mind is clear (oh so clear) when i’m cold and solitary you find your way right through and the words that you choose to pull me out of my blues oh you bring the sunshine baby wanna see you everyday you bring the sunshine X2 oh I wanna feel your light you bring the sunshine dreamin’ (baby) you’ve got me dreamin’ (baby) of all those nights laying next to me with your hand in mine oh these days throwin’ me backwards body heavy and heart resigned so i sink a little deeper draw the shades closed one more time but you bring the sunshine baby clearin’ up a cloudy day you bring the sunshine X2 oh I wanna feel your light you bring the sunshine i wanna be near ya feel your light (repeats)
5.
i wanna give you a haircut in the afternoon in my living room wanna smoke a little less when i'm with you 'cause i know it would make you happy wanna ride on the streetcar wanna walk in the park wanna drink too many sugary drinks after dark wanna sleep until two climb up onto the roof let you use my shampoo and my face wash too i wanna do it all with you X2 i wanna eat magic mushrooms and go downtown to the cinema wanna fly to barcelona and lay on the beach with you (with my top off) wanna hold your hand and kiss your collarbone wanna call you a cab when you're too drunk to drive home sing songs with you paddle in a canoe watch you try to use chopsticks at a quarter to two i wanna do it all with you X2 wanna change my screensaver to a picture of you smiling back at me wanna hear you play the same riff on your guitar every day til it makes me crazy wanna eat french fries drink a milkshake too i'm a bit lactose intolerant but what can you do read books with you fly to kathmandu make you tea and juice and soup when you're sick with the flu i wanna do it all with you X2

In A While 03:59
seasons keep on changing you remain the same always one month short of 25 your t-shirts fit me funny your friends gave me your records they see you when they look into my eyes and i still suck at foosball i guess that’s no surprise it’s hard to win without you by my side my my hey hey forever and a day in my thoughts you’ll stay i miss you most at christmas in the family photographs the way you’d hide your teeth behind your smile we wonder what you’d look like and how you’d get your haircut and could things have been different in a while maybe you’d get married and maybe you’d have babies and maybe we could take them to the seaside my my hey hey forever and a day in my thoughts you’ll stay seasons keep on changing you remain the same always one month short of 25
