I sleep in a permanent sunset
you’ve been sleeping through kentucky nights
we pulled up, can’t help but notice
there’s something different going on tonight
see I had stopped I gave up believing
but you look like a green eyed reason
to give me faith, to give me hope
that maybe, just maybe I won’t die alone
mallory, I want you to come to me
I’ve been waiting
mallory, why can’t I make you see
I’ve been waiting
step back, I gotta get to know you
that’s always been the toughest road
before I know it we’re heading down the highway
and I am still sleeping alone
maybe you are dreaming of the big town
maybe you want to follow me home
how can I know? I never got your number
I only got one word to keep me warm
mallory, I want you to come to me
I’ve been waiting
mallory, why can’t I make you see
I’ve been waiting
can’t believe it
in the nashville night
suddenly I see
mallory is there for me
can’t explain it
how did she ever find me?
I’ve been hopelessly waiting
now I finally see
mallory, mallory
I’ve been waiting
I’ve been waiting!
Track Name: Far Away (2007)
In the broken glass on king street your true colors in the dark covered eyes, little lies a tiny crack in my heart covered eyes, little lies time will drive us apart until I'm so far away you'd hardly know me so the years become my shelter from the damage that you've done a city street, a country road if you saw me you'd never know a city street, a country road I hope you see me and never know that I'm...nothing's changed I'm the same man I used to be but distance will make you forget me I hope distance will make you forget me

Track Name: All I Know (2004)
so I'm walking down the avenue
holding on so tight to what I said to you
in between my jaw and my belly where it burns
is what I meant to do
taking it in take a hit on the chin
keep your chin up, nothing's forever
baby your loving can change like the weather
everybody got their problems
that's how I know
you know how love goes
but all I know is every time I look at you, every time I look at you
but all I know is every time I look at you, every time I look at you
that's how I know
you know how love goes
playing the games, we were born to play
you go this way; I'll turn away
till you stop baby you never listen
how can you know what you have been missing?
your loving can keep us together
everybody's got their brighter side
you just gotta hope it'll be alright
still it's all that I wait for
these years that I'd hoped for
the keeping together, the falling apart
it's you that I'll be for, forever each other
together through nights we will see through the dark
that's how I know
you know how love goes
but all I know is every time I look at you, every time I look at you
but all I know is every time I look at you, every time I look at you
you can never know
you know how love goes
Track Name: Dreams (2004)
He's been tired, tired of the way she holds him down
but he's too worn out to ever say how he really feels
so he goes day by day and nothing ever happens
and she hopes nothing will but she knows he'll never be happy
and he knows he can't pretend anymore
she thinks he fine but he dreams at night, of so much more
and he dreams alright, dreams about the day he can leave this life
but the time's not right, this town is everything that he's seen
so now tonight he's packing up he's moving away
and for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in his way
so he drives all night nothing frightens him anymore
and at the first sunlight he stops the car and opens the door
and the tears they come, deeper now than in the past
it's like his first sunrise and nothing ever happened so fast
and she knows that's he's really gone for good
back at home all she can do is wish that she could
and she dreams alright, dreams about the day she can leave this life
but the time's not right, this town is everything that she's seen
so now tonight she's packing up he's moving away
and for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in her way
and you dream alright, dream about the day you can leave this life
but the time's not right, this town is everything that you've seen
so now tonight you can pack up and move away
and for the first time ever nothing's gonna get in your way
Track Name: The Pattern (2009)
you tell yourself you’re ruthless
cold hard steel on the edge of a knife
but scratch below the surface
cut right down and you will surely find
a deep seeded repitition, with painful precision
a pattern you’ve played out before
things’ll never change when you’re built like this
so find the prettiest mistake and give her a kiss
this is the pattern repeat it repeat it
this is the damage conceal it conceal
line it up exactly like you lined it up before
end up where this all began and begin once more
so you think that I deserve this?
this crippled core, this blind foresight
I prefer to think I earned it
if I ever think at all these days I find
it’s desire, that idiot fire, that burns any reason to a hot white light
things may never change since I’m built like this
so I find the prettiest mistake and give her a kiss
Track Name: Here's A Love Song (2002)
sleeping in saturdays
taking time to get to know your face
breathing in your smell on me
I'm addicted you know, to vanilla these days
butterfly kisses
and the promise you'll spend all night this time
i just want to say thank you
for taking a chance on a feeling inside
so here's a love song
for all the times that you've felt second place
here's a love song
for all the smiles that come when I see your face
here's a love song
walk into the wind tonight
city lights take the place of stars in your eyes
I lost the moon again
or I stopped looking I think when love
caught me by suprise
you're gonna be hard to get over
so I won't I don't think for a very long time
and in the summer
I'll warm your bed if your promise you'll warm mine
here's a love song
for all the times I fell into your eyes
here's a love song
for all the things you taught me last night
here's a love song
here's a love song
for all the things that you've never said
here's a love song
for the night you left your bracelet at the end of my bed
here's a love song
