The smile on my face is cause you know that I know
Everything there is about you and you can't live with that
Go on and go and I'll stand by the door
And watch you crawl to start a new life, I couldn't love that anymore
Cause you've run out of time
Give me back what's mine
For the taking, man
This is getting old
You took my heart and you made a puzzle of it
And now I'm left, picking up the pieces from it
How long must it take to right a wrong, to mend a break?
Can you put it back together, back together again?
A piece on the counter and one on the bedroom floor
And an unnecessary mag and piece lingers on the porch
Don't look for forgiveness cause it's out of your reach
Where I still feel the shadow of what you've taken from me\
So let the world stand still
There's no space left to fill
When you cannot find
All you leave behind
You took my heart and you made a puzzle of it
And now I'm left, picking up the pieces from it
How long must it take to right a wrong, to mend a break?
Can you put it back together, back together again?
One day, you will see
You will think of me
And you'll realize
What you left behind
You'll be on your own
With this upon your soul
You took my heart and you made a puzzle of it
And now I'm left, picking up the pieces from it
How long must it take to right a wrong, to mend a break?
Can you put it back together, back together again?
Not The Only One lyrics - aslyn
You tie a knot
But never too tight that you can't get out
You call a shot, you chew it down
And before the sun comes out
You change your mind
You're making love to a payday coming
Cause you're getting older and you can see
You haven't got yours yet
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
You're tired of making
The same mistakes with the look-alike scars
Tired of shaking a barren tree
Cause it's breaking your heart
And you don't see
No berries falling on the floor
There's nothing sweet
When your memories don't love you anymore
And somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
But never too tight that you can't get out
You call a shot, you chew it down
And before the sun comes out
You change your mind
You're making love to a payday coming
Cause you're getting older and you can see
You haven't got yours yet
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
You're tired of making
The same mistakes with the look-alike scars
Tired of shaking a barren tree
Cause it's breaking your heart
And you don't see
No berries falling on the floor
There's nothing sweet
When your memories don't love you anymore
And somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
When all the want-to-dies don't let go
Somewhere you'll always find
You're not the only one
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
Even the day you die
Can I Go lyrics - aslyn (with Jon Mitchell)
Hairlocks don't mean that I am high
On cocaine, whiskey and flies
I'm free just like a butterfly
So bitter but can you not remember
When you were half your age?
There must have been something you tried
I can't see too far
My friends have gone
This course has torn me down
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
12 times, I hear the clock, how it chimes
A day is gone, I can't contain myself
We're growing up
And choices, we make them in a minute
But they're changing everything
Before you know, you can't find love
Can you start these stages?
Smooth out these phases?
Or is life just waiting?
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
And the part that I remember is we all fit in
There was hope and chance for harmony where grace would begin
And the TV says there'll be more dead by 2010
Cause living hate is ordinary
Can we start these stages?
Heal separation?
Are we living, breaking up?
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
Can I go?
Can I go?
On cocaine, whiskey and flies
I'm free just like a butterfly
So bitter but can you not remember
When you were half your age?
There must have been something you tried
I can't see too far
My friends have gone
This course has torn me down
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
12 times, I hear the clock, how it chimes
A day is gone, I can't contain myself
We're growing up
And choices, we make them in a minute
But they're changing everything
Before you know, you can't find love
Can you start these stages?
Smooth out these phases?
Or is life just waiting?
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
And the part that I remember is we all fit in
There was hope and chance for harmony where grace would begin
And the TV says there'll be more dead by 2010
Cause living hate is ordinary
Can we start these stages?
Heal separation?
Are we living, breaking up?
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
Can I go to the fountain of my youth?
Where the rivers tend to run
And people never move
Where start and finish don't collide
Where the essence of a child
Is still learning what to do
Can I go?
Can I go?
Rosemary lyrics - aslyn
I don't hear nothing but the sound of me breathing
Maybe just a night-tap, cricket or the slide of a friendly wind
And I don't feel nothing but the sand under my feet
I'm leaving the straight-press for awhile
I'm leaving the strain and the city lights
Rosemary taught me the way
To take it off and lay it down
And leave all the fighters on the edge of town
With their ringing cells and their slamming doors
Just me and my sandals walking moons from more
And life will rock you but you let it roll
Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old
And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole
I grew up in a small town, soon as I could, I ran out
Feeling might tight, top down and this dreaming needed some room
But somewhere on the city clock, a dreaming girl forgot
That sometimes, the pace of a rocking chair
Is good to slow down, reminisce the air
Rosemary taught me the way
To take it off and lay it down
Leave all the fighters on the edge of town
With their ringing cells and their slamming doors
Just me and my sandals walking moons from more
And life will rock you but you let it roll
Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old
And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole
Ain't nobody stepping me over
Ain't nobody around, these days
The height that's lifting me up
Is mostly bringing me down
I don't wish for a skyline
If it's barely feeling like home
Just a speck in this bowl
Of people to throw the very same stone
Rosemary taught me the way
La la la, la, la la la la
La la la, la
Rosemary taught me the way
To take it off and lay it down
And leave all the fighters on the edge of town
With their ringing cells and their slamming doors
Just me and my sandals walking moons from more
And life will rock you but you let it roll
Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old
And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole
Rosemary taught me the way
Maybe just a night-tap, cricket or the slide of a friendly wind
And I don't feel nothing but the sand under my feet
I'm leaving the straight-press for awhile
I'm leaving the strain and the city lights
Rosemary taught me the way
To take it off and lay it down
And leave all the fighters on the edge of town
With their ringing cells and their slamming doors
Just me and my sandals walking moons from more
And life will rock you but you let it roll
Cause I think all this thinking's rushing me old
And here, the best I can do is dream of momma's casserole
I grew up in a small town, soon as I could, I ran out
Feeling might tight, top down and this dreaming needed some room
But somewhere on the city clock, a dreaming girl forgot
That sometimes, the pace of a rocking chair
Is good to slow down, reminisce the air
Rosemary taught me the way
To take it off and lay it down
Leave all the fighters on the edge of town

That's When I Love You lyrics - aslyn
When you have to look away
When you don't have much to say
That's when I love you
I love u, just that way
To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
That's when I love you
I love you endlessly
And when you're mad 'cause you lost a game
Forget I'm waiting in the rain
Baby, I'll love you
I'll love you anyway
'Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
'Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you
No matter what
So when you turn to hide your eyes
'Cause the movie- it made you cry
That's when I love you
I love you
A little more each time
And when you can't quite match your clothes
Or when you laugh at your own jokes
that's when I love you, I love you
More then you'll know
And when you forgot that we had a date
Or that look that you give when you show up late
Baby, I'll love you
I'll love you anyway
So here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
'Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love
The more my heart cant get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you
No matter what
Ohh that's when I love you when nothing baby, nothing you do could change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love, the more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you, when I love you no matter what
Ohhhh no matter what
When you don't have much to say
That's when I love you
I love u, just that way
To hear you stumble when you speak
Or see you walk with two left feet
That's when I love you
I love you endlessly
And when you're mad 'cause you lost a game
Forget I'm waiting in the rain
Baby, I'll love you
I'll love you anyway
'Cause here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
'Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love
The more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you
No matter what
So when you turn to hide your eyes
'Cause the movie- it made you cry
That's when I love you
I love you
A little more each time
And when you can't quite match your clothes
Or when you laugh at your own jokes
that's when I love you, I love you
More then you'll know
And when you forgot that we had a date
Or that look that you give when you show up late
Baby, I'll love you
I'll love you anyway
So here's my promise made tonight
You can count on me for life
'Cause that's when I love you
When nothing you do can change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love
The more my heart cant get enough
That's when I love you
When I love you
No matter what
Ohh that's when I love you when nothing baby, nothing you do could change my mind
The more I learn, the more I love, the more my heart can't get enough
That's when I love you, when I love you no matter what
Ohhhh no matter what
Wish You Were Here lyrics - aslyn
I'm standing on this wooden pier
Just people getting along
A little boy with his fishing gear
And an old man playing a song
I took a picture of these strangers
Just like you would do
I feel so underworked and out of danger
I wish that you could too
I wish you were here
To soak up this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's going down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
I walked along the sandy shore
Holding both my shoes
And I could smell the candy store
And your honey-glazed cashews
A family on a blanket
Full of sunscreen, shades and food
A radio playing Maggie May
I almost came unglued
I wish you were here
I think you'd love this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's almost down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
And you're the one that carries me
When my head feels out of control
And you will always be the one
That lingers in my soul
I wish you were here
I know you'll love this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's just went down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
In the light from these lamps on this lonely street
And I've been thinking, lately
Still holding back a tear
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Just people getting along
A little boy with his fishing gear
And an old man playing a song
I took a picture of these strangers
Just like you would do
I feel so underworked and out of danger
I wish that you could too
I wish you were here
To soak up this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's going down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
I walked along the sandy shore
Holding both my shoes
And I could smell the candy store
And your honey-glazed cashews
A family on a blanket
Full of sunscreen, shades and food
A radio playing Maggie May
I almost came unglued
I wish you were here
I think you'd love this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's almost down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
And you're the one that carries me
When my head feels out of control
And you will always be the one
That lingers in my soul
I wish you were here
I know you'll love this town
I can't wait any longer
The sun's just went down
And I've been thinking, lately
Holding back a tear
I wish you were here
In the light from these lamps on this lonely street
And I've been thinking, lately
Still holding back a tear
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
If All Of These Things lyrics - aslyn
What if branches grew and grew?
What if the sun never went down?
And what if everything abused
Would rot like apple on the ground?
What if lovers never found themselves
Jarred between a wreck and home?
What if war didn't mean to fight?
If babies grew in the fairest field?
And what if Lennon never died?
What if Jesus wasn't real?
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
What if water was our air
And air, a strong liquor?
People would swim to juice a buzz
Then we'd all drown when we got bored
And if there was no place to go
When the sky turns kettle-black
And all the things we'll never know
Didn't lend faith to hold our backs
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
What if cars were time machines
And to drive meant to go back?
And what if you jumped in with me?
What if the music never got mad
And what if gravity was gone?
And what if liars turned to stone?
Well, what if politics and magic tricks
And doctors and preachers never went wrong
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
If all these things
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
What if the sun never went down?
And what if everything abused
Would rot like apple on the ground?
What if lovers never found themselves
Jarred between a wreck and home?
What if war didn't mean to fight?
If babies grew in the fairest field?
And what if Lennon never died?
What if Jesus wasn't real?
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
What if water was our air
And air, a strong liquor?
People would swim to juice a buzz
Then we'd all drown when we got bored
And if there was no place to go
When the sky turns kettle-black
And all the things we'll never know
Didn't lend faith to hold our backs
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
What if cars were time machines
And to drive meant to go back?
And what if you jumped in with me?
What if the music never got mad
And what if gravity was gone?
And what if liars turned to stone?
Well, what if politics and magic tricks
And doctors and preachers never went wrong
If all of these things
If all of these things could come true
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
If all these things
Then I would believe
I believe I could be with you
Cannot Take A Secret
You told me I was guarded
Late on a Tuesday night
And now it's only Thursday
And others said the same
My eyes aren't broken vases
They do see a steady pulse and flag
I thought that was a good thing
You told me it was bad
But I can't find you with my arms in front of me
Tell me, can you ever win time back
If you're willing to lose some fun between the cracks?
A sacrifice that I would make for those days, I can't relax
Cause you cannot take a secret back
Mmm
I love people-watching
On this wild, wide brick street
The lamps give just enough
That we just might meet
It's a big, small world
With lots of stages and holes to fill
Before that day I said too much
I can't sit still
I can't find you with my arms in front of me
But if home is my mystery
Well, I have to stay and guard this street
Tell me, can you ever win time back
If you're willing to lose some fun between the cracks?
A sacrifice that I would make for those days, I can't relax
Cause you cannot take a secret back
Oh
I can't find you with my arms in front of me
But if home is my identity
Well, then I have to stay right here, right here and guard this street
Tell me, can you ever win time back
If you're willing to lose some fun between the cracks?
A sacrifice that I would make for those days, I can't relax
Cause you cannot take a secret back
Oh
You cannot take a secret back
Mmm

In These Shoes (Parking Lot Part 1) lyrics - aslyn
The field is ever-open for a silent reckoning
With the space and time you wanted to forget the grass was green
I know the air never easy over on that hatchback seat
With the sound of lonely counting down where hoping didn't meet
And the sun went down on the parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could lift you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
You wore a jacket that held benefit to be happy more than right
While I wore a dress to pitch a fit, you were there, holding the lights
Well, if it ever makes a difference, I'm sorry I could never see
While I was counting up the problems, in the middle, there stood me
While the sun went down on a parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could lift you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
A wise man once told me, "You should think before you talk
Let the horse out of the stable and let a grown mand walk."
Now, tears are running down my cheekbones and my motor's stuck on "E"
I'm crying wolf for something but my tears don't say a thing
And the sun went down on a parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could life you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
And now, I can't lie
I've set my mind on you
Now, I can't lie
I've set my mind on you
With the space and time you wanted to forget the grass was green
I know the air never easy over on that hatchback seat
With the sound of lonely counting down where hoping didn't meet
And the sun went down on the parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could lift you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
You wore a jacket that held benefit to be happy more than right
While I wore a dress to pitch a fit, you were there, holding the lights
Well, if it ever makes a difference, I'm sorry I could never see
While I was counting up the problems, in the middle, there stood me
While the sun went down on a parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could lift you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
A wise man once told me, "You should think before you talk
Let the horse out of the stable and let a grown mand walk."
Now, tears are running down my cheekbones and my motor's stuck on "E"
I'm crying wolf for something but my tears don't say a thing
And the sun went down on a parking lot
And we sat love down to connect the dots
If I could life you up or take it back, I would
But would you still mistake me for the hell I was making?
Cause I don't want to go to heaven in these shoes
And now, I can't lie
I've set my mind on you
Now, I can't lie
I've set my mind on you
You Don't See lyrics - aslyn
Well, I can't move the weight in your eyes
And where's the switch to pull the tide?
Can a liar be your hero?
I just wanna be your friend
When the cat creeps out, out again
Knowing the chalk's out on the pillow
Cause you won't win til you begin
To see the days get older
With bottlecaps, less on their pages
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
Is slipping away from me
When you're young, there is a garden
And there's a light that makes you grow
But can you see beyond the fireflies?
And see the diamonds in your hand
See the hourglass of sand
See where beautiful is in disguise
Sweet goodwill, where have you been?
Cause there's been a lot of talking
That there's a blanket on your pretty face
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
Is slipping away from me
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
You're slipping away
You don't see, you don't see
That you were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
You're slipping away from me
And where's the switch to pull the tide?
Can a liar be your hero?
I just wanna be your friend
When the cat creeps out, out again
Knowing the chalk's out on the pillow
Cause you won't win til you begin
To see the days get older
With bottlecaps, less on their pages
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
Is slipping away from me
When you're young, there is a garden
And there's a light that makes you grow
But can you see beyond the fireflies?
And see the diamonds in your hand
See the hourglass of sand
See where beautiful is in disguise
Sweet goodwill, where have you been?
Cause there's been a lot of talking
That there's a blanket on your pretty face
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
Is slipping away from me
You don't see, you don't see
You were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
You're slipping away
You don't see, you don't see
That you were never free
Life killing you
Love killing me
And you don't know, you don't know
When it's your time to go
But I feel today
You're slipping away from me
