My Friends

All of my friends are playing a very special part
I look around the table, they are candles warming my heart
All of my friends always forgive me when I’m wrong
And I’ll never forget them, even though our lives may move on
I am loved by my friends
All of my friends, you need to know just how I feel
If we’re laughing or just talking, you halve the load I’m hauling
All of my friends cut me a very special mark
Each one has paved a tile on the path I walk
I am loved
I am loved
I am loved by my friends

One Dollar Wednesdays
04:00
|

|
We used to do one dollar Wednesdays at the Civic Video
We’d walk there from your big white house, watch Adam Sandler movies on your couch
Now we’re living in a house we own, and you’re never gonna leave me alone
What a beautiful thing to do, I will never stop loving you
Remember when we started dating, standing at the bus stop waiting
In the rain then you would say “How ‘bout I drive you home today”
Fast forward, now we’re driving in a car we own and you’re never gonna leave me alone
What a beautiful thing to do, I will never stop loving you
And you taught me to drive
And I’ll spend my whole life
Staring at our sunset, I can’t find a better view
I’ll never stop loving you
Staring at our sunset, I can’t find a better view
I’ll never stop loving you
Oh I’ll never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
Oh I’ll never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
Oh I’ll never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving you
I will never stop loving
I will never stop loving you
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop
I will never stop loving you
I’ll never stop I’ll never stop
I’ll never stop loving you

The Bench

He told me I was funny, he liked my company
He said I should’ve been a boy so he could hang with me
My heart sunk in a dive, my face was blushing red
I was sitting on the bench soaked in what he said
I see another kind of world when I’m with my steamy friend
I just want to have a good night but silly boys start lurking in
Every thing she has to say they’re eyeing up a feast
And I’m left sitting on the bench, staring at my feet.
We could’ve been friends ya know
Really really good friends
It didn’t have to be like that
We could’ve been friends ya know
But I’ve made my bed
With the bad, bad thoughts running races in my head
When I’ve got the night off work I strap myself down on the couch
Scrolling through my Instagram, imagining if I went out
I’m so far away from you, a hill too big to climb
So I’ll just sit here on the bench wasting all my time
But I could’ve made friends ya know
Really really good friends
It didn’t have to be like that, oh
I could’ve made friends ya know
But I made my bed
With the bad, bad thoughts running races in my head

Wait For Me
03:01
|

Like a little girl on her way to school
Will you tie my shoes and help me cross the street
Will you hold my hand and walk a slower pace
Oh will you wait for me
Wait for me
I feel like a burden, like a bag of sand
You’ll lose the marathon, you choose to hold my hand
You won’t get a trophy if you wait for me
If you could see the broken back
The tiny kicks, the little scratches
Would you leave me like you do?
Is it considered such a waste
For you give yourself away
Like I would give myself to you?
So would you wait for me, and listen to me read
Though I’m painfully slow, don’t just flip the page
Will you wait for me, and love me through the struggle
Will you wait
Will you wait
Will you wait for me
Will you wait
Will you wait
Will you wait for me
Will you wait
Will you wait
Will you wait for me

Opposites attract but they’re not as warm as
The same kind of human matching
I would have never picked you as a comfort
Your skin seemed too pretty to’ve been dragged through the dirt
Maybe God’s plan was to help us get better
And Heaven has blessed us in moments together
We had the same feeling
We sung the same song
But the same kind of magnets can’t touch for too long
The poor can’t get rich with just help from the poor
I’ve seen this go badly, I’ve seen this before
Every friend that I’ve lost is a brick in the wall
If I leave you alone, I can’t hurt you at all
I found a loser like me
I found a loser like me

Pudding and Pie

You know you can come to me
No matter what you do
I’m just a feather
You can get away with murder
With that smile, that smile
Right at the beginning
I tied a knot for you
I dug a hole for you
Our love’s a four leaf clover
It lies, it lies
But whenever we talk we fight
You wanna go left, I go right
Something gets caught in the way
Something gets caught in the way
We are a cat and mouse
We’re playing both the parts
Should I keep chasing you off a cliff?
I’ve tried, I’ve tried
But whenever we talk we fight
You wanna go left, I go right
Something gets caught in the way
Something gets caught in the way
Whenever we talk we fight
You wanna go left, I go right
Something gets caught in the way
Something gets caught in the way
It was only ever gonna be a half pie
Three years of firing up the gaslight
I open up, you tell me I’m pathetic
Little chance that you’ll ever regret it
Little hope that we could ever get this clean
I won’t be your patsy schmuck
I won’t be your spitting cup
I won't be your dumping truck
Flags up, don’t push me no more
I’m tired, I’m tired

Don’t talk to me
Don’t touch me
My hands are made of glass and they’ll strike you
I struggle to be nice and I’ll just bite you
I love you
But don’t be fooled by me
My hands are made of glass and they’ll cut you
They’re hidden under sleeves
So you can’t always see
The fragments
My hands are made of glass and they’ll strike you
My hands are made of glass and they’ll cut you
Don’t you dare get comfortable with me

It’s funny how we’ve carried on fable after fable
Not too close, but not too far away, hey.
You have been a rock inside my world that’s so unstable
With no idea how much you mean to me
So I’m wishing, I am wishing
If you moved to Japan
I’ll still know how you’re doing with the phone in my hand
If we get different jobs, different lives, different friends,
I promise I’ll be there for you, whenever I can
It’s so easy to have you here while it’s so convenient
But now I know you’re a diamond in the rough my friend
Who can say how far away we’ll drift inside a lifetime
Who knows if we’ll still be here a year from now
Oh I don’t know
So I’m wishing, I am wishing
If you moved to Japan
I’ll still know how you’re doing with the phone in my hand
If we get different jobs, different lives, different friends,
I promise I’ll be there for you, whenever I can
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
Whenever I can
Whenever I can, I’ll be there
If I’m standing on a mountain top, or buried in sand
I promise I’ll be there for you, whenever I can

I’ll back you up and lay you down
On a flower bed with a flower crown
You matter more, you’re Jesus Christ
You’re a brother, sister, dog and wife
Would you throw away the key and tie your arms together?
Don’t wanna be a team that doesn’t play because it’s awful weather
All my life has been a mould for my fearless skin, my fearless scold
Join your hands, rest the weak
There is no mistake, you’re next to me
Would you throw away the key and tie your arms together?
Don’t wanna be a team that doesn’t play because it’s awful weather
I’m prepared to love you, no matter who you are
I’m prepared to love you, no matter who you think you are
I’m prepared to love you, no matter who you are
I’m prepared to love you, no matter who you really are
