I cannot see you but I know you're smiling
Content with everything life throws your way
Nothing can possibly ruin your day
I wish I could be happy like you
I wish I could live life just like you
I see the sunshine in your smile
Brightens up the path ahead of where I'm walking
No need to think about much else when you're talking
I wish I could be happy like you
I wish I could live life just like you
The things I would do to spend my life with you
The things I would do to take in all your sunshine
The things I would do to be with you
I cannot see you but I, I cannot feel you but I
I cannot show you where the future takes us
Hopefully somewhere we can both be free
Loving so happily
I wish we could be happy together
I wish we could be happy forever
I see the sunshine in your smile

Feel like a car with nowhere to go
Feel like a boat with nowhere to row
The sun’s creeping in
And the future is starting the show
Too many minutes I’ll never get back
Too many thoughts that slipped through the cracks
The day has begun
I’d rather be put on the rack
I don’t want to live this life unappealing
I don’t want to live this body unfeeling
I don’t want to someone to break my heart
Just let me roll over and dream
I don’t want tomorrow to start
There’s a note in the mail
But I’ll get it later
There’s a knock on the door
Is it Elijah for the Seder?
Saturday night is a party for some
Leaving my mind, soul, and body numb
Oh my God
What have I become?
I don’t want to live this life quickly reeling
I don’t want to live this body concealing
I don’t want to let this world tear me apart
Just let me roll over and dream
I don’t want tomorrow to start
Too many fish in the ocean below
Too many flowers and trees left to grow
The moon’s in the sky
And the mountains are covered in snow
Just let me roll over and dream
I don’t want tomorrow to start

When She's Around
02:13
|
|

I wake up to an empty bed where she was
Thoughts of her clog my head because
I feel completed (when she's around)
My fears are defeated (when she's around)
My heartbeat increases (when she's around)
Her silhouette pleases (when she's around)
In the evening I wait for her hello
She said goodbye one day, when she'll return I don't know
My blood starts pumping (when she's around)
My heart starts thumping (when she's around)
The sun will start shining (when she's around)
The blanket's unwinding (when she's around)
Every night she’s not here and I feel so low
Hearing the second hand ticking a minute too slow
But everything’s better (when she's around)
I’ll never forget her (when she's around)
Romantic eternal (when she's around)
Love never infernal (when she's around)

King of the Junkyard

I’m the king of the junkyard
I wear a crown of loose debris
I’m the king of the junkyard
Throne overlooks the shrapnel sea
I’m the king of the junkyard
Broken glass beneath my feet
I’m the king of the junkyard
My kingdom stretches down the street
I’m the king of the junkyard
A scepter shower rod in hand
I’m the king of the junkyard
I walk along this hallowed land
I’m the king of the junkyard
Waking up to greet the dawn
I’m the king of the junkyard
Auto parts to grace my lawn
I’m the king of the junkyard
I am a scourge upon the earth
I’m the king of the junkyard
I could be Christ but what’s that worth

Let's Try Something New
04:18

Let's try something new, something that we've never done before
Something true, something that could open up the door
To new possibilities, it could be just you and me
Our first rodeo, we could have our very own TV show
We could see the world and oh the places we'd go
The faces we would get to know
We could see the depths of space
Stare our fears down face to face
Clear the ghosts that fill our lives
They're acting like they own the place
Conquer what stands in our way
Find a challenge every day
And keep the terrors of this world
At bay
Climb the tallest tree, look around and see how far you can see
High above the ground is where I want to be
It could be just you and me
Flying high in the sky
Diving deep into the sea
Far away from society
It really is the best for me
Let’s go on a journey
On a trip through mystery
Adventure is our destiny
Take my hand and follow me!
There's new possibilities, it could be just you and me
Let's try something new
Something that we've never done before

The Bear Song
03:05
|
|
||
There’s hope for the future, but it’s getting hard to care
Time is fluctuating, it all leads to nowhere
Let me walk into the woods, without a thought left to spare
And await impending fate, get mauled to death by a bear
Big grizzly claws tear my body apart
Ripping out my eyes, my bones, and my heart
This is not the ending most would hope to endure
But there’s no better way to open death’s door
Think about the headlines, the overwhelming shock
All my enemies will have nothing left to mock
If my friends knew me well, a Viking funeral would rock
Or just take a boat trip, leave my casket at the dock
Maybe there’s a heaven, but that’s not on my mind
I have no offspring or loose ends I’m afraid to leave behind
If I go missing, and myself you try to find
You’ll only find a pair of shoes and a satisfied ursine
