Best Home Life

We can take cover on a Friday night
Paint a silver screen if it just feels alright
Camp in a bedding of our own design
Warm our feet by the electric fireside
Dance in the kitchen til the records don't spin
And I'll be sure I'm livin'
My best home life
I'll rediscover how to hold your hand
And realize why we both hate makin' plans
Talk about the food that we loved as kids
Ten minutes in and we're headed to the grocery store for it
Tell tall tales of the old man's bride
And I'll be sure I'm livin'
My best home life
Catchin' leaves as they're falling outside
And I'll be sure I'm livin'
Ooh
Best Home Life
Best Home Life
We've been gone too long
Now it's time to unwind
We've been gone too long
Now it's time that we find
We can take cover on a Friday night
Paint a silver screen if it just feels alright
Camp in a bedding of our own design
Warm our feet by the electric fireside
Your eyes are gettin' heavy but you won't admit
Cause we don't wanna stop livin'
Our best home life
We've been gone too long
Now it's time that we find
Fall in love fall in love
Fall in love fall in love
All over again
Fall in love fall in love
Fall in love fall in love
All over again
Fall in love fall in love
Fall in love fall in love
All over again
Fall in love fall in love
Fall in love fall in love
Tell tall tales of the old man's bride
And I'll be sure I'm livin'

Joshua
04:33
|

|
Born into the wrong home
He would work the ticket counter just to catch a break
From raging fire and brimstone
They would tear him down to nothing
To try and set him straight
Living in the same town
I could offer my condolences with nothing more
Than sharing all our favorite sounds
And spread our rock CD's like leaves across my parent's floor
In the end, I knew that he would find his own way
But when the chips are down you count up all the tough breaks
All in time the trumpets will sound
Joshua
I know there's a change inside of you
But all around ya
The walls surround
Working at a dead-end job
With his friends in school, he toiled in the loading docks
Whirlpools kept him spinnin' round
Til they laid him off for smashing in the timeclock
There were times when I would stop and try to reach out
But all or nothing predetermines ways to fall out
All in time the trumpets will sound
Joshua
I know there's a change inside of you
But all around ya
The walls surround
I was in the van alone
When Josh called to break the silence of a year gone by
And straighten out the broken bones
So we pulled it back together for the old times
Now he's headed to the West Coast
Cause' he found a man to love and that's a reason why
So write a script and cast yourself
In a picture reminiscent of a sunrise
But I was happy on the day that you had called up
Cause it was only time before I knew you'd rise up
By and by the trumpets will sound
Joshua
Could you feel a change inside of you
Cause look around ya
The walls come down
Joshua
Could you feel a change inside of you
Cause look around ya
The walls come down

I Was So Wrong
03:31
|
|||
|
I remember in the old days
I was living like a one-man show
Never thought I'd change my pumped up status quo
She appeared just like a daydream
And pulled the rug out on my selfish games
Summer ended and slipped away
I would try to say I'm movin' on
And I would try to say I'm better off
On my own
I was so wrong to think I could live without you
Or let someone stand in your place
I tried so hard to say it didn't matter
On the night I watched you walk away
I was so wrong
Your senior picture's on my bookshelf
For some reason, I still couldn't dispose
And I wondered if you still had all my notes
Reaching out across the satellite
awestruck by a song of ELO
Saw a post that you had moved back home
I would like to say I'm doing fine
But do I ever shoot across your mind
Cards on the table
I called to say
I was so wrong to think I could live without you
Or let someone stand in your place
It took so long just for me to realize it
thought you'd be the one that got away
I was so wrong
I was so wrong to think I could live without you
Or let someone stand in your place
It took so long just for me to realize it
thought you'd be the one that got away
I was so wrong

Fade Away
03:48
|
|||
|
Every now and then I slip into a parallel
Where you and I still talk all afternoon
Soon the words dissolve and the pages start to separate
I sit alone and waste my time away
She's not a girl that I could paint by number
I was still so young
Maybe I'm just dumb
But you didn't have to
Fade, fade away
You didn't have to
Fade, fade away
You didn't have to
Fade, fade away
Have you still a taste for the sentimental games we played
And could you honor one last timeless fool
Did you sail away and find yourself a man to be proud of
Or would you disapprove any lasting jewel
You broke the silence in my lonely bedroom
And left me in the dark
I wish that I could stop
But it's never gonna
Fade, fade away
It's never gonna
Fade, fade away
It's never gonna
Fade, fade away
Why did you fade
Why did you fade
Why did you fade away
I'll be the guy who loses the sunshine
You'll be the one who wakes up my heart at night
I'll be the guy who loses the sunshine
You'll be the one who

Relentless
03:23
|
|||
|
Last night we got stuck in the belly of a big fish
Trying to fit a square in a circle till I beat my fist
On the puzzle table
The pieces went flying all around
I woke up in a fit to a dog licking my face
Trying to recall how I found myself in a strange place
I revived my cell phone
And looked at my send with no reply
It said I hope that you're able
To give this fool just one more try
And figure it out
Cause I'm pulling hair out
I know I'm givin' you doubt
I don't mean to be so
Relentless, relentless
But you've got me feeling
So restless, so restless
Keep biting my nails down
And look at my send with no reply
And figure it out
Cause I'm pulling hair out
I know I'm givin' you doubt
I don't mean to be so
Relentless, relentless
But you've got me feeling
So restless, so restless
Last night we got stuck in the belly of a big fish
Trying to fit a square in a circle till I beat my fist

Holy Moly
03:59
|

|
If you're tired of this hard-luck story, well so am I
Cause I've been choking back the pain and fury, though it stings my eyes
I keep on running but the wolves keep catching up
and I'm afraid if you decided that you had enough
All my life became a jigsaw puzzle overnight
But you're the only piece I need to solve it and make it right
Come on baby don't you leave me in the hardest part
Cause holy moly babe, I've loved you right from the start
If you go
Then I'd be bitten by the poisoned arrow
If you go
It'd be dirt on my coffin baby
There were seasons that both can savor, rain and all
So please remember who I was in summer, before the fall
I keep on running but the wolves keep catching up
And I'm afraid if you decided that you've had enough
If you go
Then I'd be bitten by the poisoned arrow
If you go
It'd be dirt on my coffin baby
Come on baby don't you leave me in the hardest part
Cause holy moly babe you're all I've got left to lose
If you go
Then I'd be bitten by the poisoned arrow
If you go
It'd be dirt on my coffin baby
If you go

Dog Days
04:07
|
|||
|
I guess I was a long way from you
Threadbare from all the nights we'd been through
Still, I can't give enough
Isn't that the main reason why
Loose change in paper cups
It doesn't even matter what we can buy
Grape juice set in the place of good wine
Weekends bore me to tears then I'm fine
A striped shirt on a summer night
But good intentions melted down my sleeve
I'm calloused and insecure
But doesn't mean I wanted you to leave
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
Dog days drag me down
Still, we can't give enough
Isn't that the main reason why
Loose change in paper cups
It doesn't even matter what we can buy
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
So I guess I'll just be alone
Dog days drag me down

Snakes and Ladders
03:33
|
|||
|
Snakes and ladders come and torture me
But all that matters is in front of me
Wrap my hands a little tighter
Grit my teeth until they shatter
A stairway carved into the living stone
A restless kite up in a tree alone
Shout to me words of courage
Show me how if I'm uncertain
Cause the flat spot disappeared
So this is my prime
But I feel so tired
And I've spent all my life
To be stranded up so high
Snakes and ladders always testing me
Separated in the worst degree
From my faith in a promise
Don't look now, it's coming for us
It's time we both should leave
So this is my prime
But I feel so tired
And I've spent all my life
To be stranded up so high
So this is my prime
And I've spent all my life
To be stranded so high
So high
So climb on
So climb on
So climb on

Let's get back to Australia
And we can breathe for a while
Don't let cold winds dispair ya
Just leave it all behind
Oh, Lavender Bay

Maybe we'll renew our love
Maybe we'll just stay
