A Way With Words 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Well my baby's got a way with words And Lord my savior comes around every now and then Crawl inside my bedroom where you sleep And come inside and preach the gospel to me On the way that exodus I find And dig my heart out like a gold mine Hold me in your arms so tightly And squeeze the love just right out of me Misbehaved I held my head down low And turned my grave and waited for to die And caught some looks from some unwelcome eyes And made it through to the other side Well my baby's got a way with words Says, you've got everything that you deserve So crawl inside my bedroom where you sleep Come inside and preach the gospel to me

French Broad 03:05
lyrics

I swept needles of the porch for you Crossed my arms and folded laundry too I used to open up the blinds for you I got wasted all the time with you And we got married on the banks of the French Broad underneath mandarin skies And I told you I would change in the shaddow of the range that stretched on behind I tied the hook onto the line for you I cast the bait into the lake and spun the reel You said that everyone was kind to you You said that everyone was blind except for you And we got married on the banks of the French Broad underneath mandarin skies And I told you I would change in the shaddow of the range that stretched on behind

Better Days 01:47
lyrics
buy track
Lately I've seen better days, the fog that hides the window panes is long gone And constant climbing altitude has leveled out and cruises like it's supposed to And I hold it steady as I check the flight plan And I wonder if I'm doing right by you Way above these clouds I see the earth and all the oceans bend so softly The heavenly geometry, a thousand years is not enough for me And I start to feel like I could fall apart now Living history one hour at a time

Dead in the Water 01:39
lyrics
buy track
Tried to be a mystery Kept getting caught dead in the water I've got a feeling in my bones about you Tried to relive history But kept getting caught in your voicemail Just call me back it's not important, I swear Written out apology Never quite as good as the real thing I stole a flower from the neighbor next door Tried to be a mystery Kept getting caught dead in the water I've got a feeling in my bones about you

Strange Thing 02:52
lyrics
buy track
I saw her house last week, so quiet on the hill And I wandered around until I found the key The heat was off for weeks, and not a sound I heard I saw the air I breathed, I stole a painting she did And I feel a strange thing coming my way And I left a strange thing far behind I turned on all the lights, I sat down on her couch I saw her shoes by the bed I caught the light from the shade and laid down just to rest my head But I feel a strange thing coming my way And I left a strange thing far behind
