I Gave You Everything
You've made it clear that you don't want me around
You're acting like we never shared anything
You've made it clear that you don't want me by your side
Holding onto the hope one day you'll see
That I belong with you and you should be with me
Don't they know how the coldness it makes me feel, how it makes me feel
I gave you everything, I helped you spread your wings
Like a satellite you're spinning me around the world
She is everything, this song's for you I sing
Like a pre madonna love never mattered to you
There's no end in sight to all the sleepless nights
Like a sugar hit I crave you everyday, what are you doing tonight?
You've made it clear by blocking me on FaceBook and friends
Don't they know that you promised me it would never end
I hope the next time around you're gonna try to be kind, and then you'll find
The love you craved but with me you always pushed it away
Promising that you would tell me the truth someday
Well I'm still waiting and I'm ready to hear what you have to, then we could find a way
I gave you everything, I helped you spread your wings
Like a satellite you're spinning me around the world
She is everything, this song's for you I sing
Like a pre madonna love never mattered to you
There's no end in sight to all the sleepless nights
Like a sugar hit I crave you everyday, what are you doing tonight?
Maybe I could have done it better by trying to open up to you
What you didn't understand is how you always wanted control, I couldn't choose
Now here you are trying to hunt me down it's no concern of yours how I spend my time, or where I am
You're no longer on my mind
You've made it clear that you don't want me around
You're acting like we never shared anything
You've made it clear that you no longer need me by your side
I gave you everything, I helped you spread your wings
(I don't)
Like a satellite you're spinning me around the world
(Need anything from you)
She is everything, this song's for you I sing
(I'm my own)
Like a pre madonna love never mattered to you
(Voice, my life is what I choose)
There's no end in sight to all the sleepless nights
(Breaking free)
Like a sugar hit I crave you everyday, what are you doing tonight?
(I don't crave you everyday)
Room at the Chapel
She dances under the southern skies, these peaceful delights
Where the weight of the sails doesn't chain their hands, it's gospel all the way tonight
Ca you hear the sounds of the delta blues, fills the tavern with ivory
Four years of time on the union line, now faded memories
Now I'm walking hand in hand with dixie as Armstrong claims the stage
I'm renting a room at the steps of the chapel, St. Jude is gonna light my way
Working the mills in the country towns, I met my first love in 75
She was a seamstress of wonder that left me breathless like the Mississippi in moonshine
But I kept jumping from train to train and she had every right to move on
Years of searching lead me to New Orleans in a city where I felt I belonged
Cause I'm walking hand in hand with dixie as Armstrong claims the stage
I'm renting a room at the steps of the chapel, St. Jude is gonna light my way
This gift of freedom brings me to me knees, a generation frozen in time
I thank the lord who catches the tears, sweet Georgias on my mind
She dances under the southern skies, these peaceful delights
Where the weight of the sails doesn't chain their hands, it's gospel all the way tonight
Cause I'm walking hand in hand with dixie as Armstrong claims the stage
I'm renting a room at the steps of the chapel, St. Jude is gonna light my way
'm walking hand in hand with the angels, there's no place I'd rather be
I pray at the steps where they rescued my father, let St. Jude set me free
Temple of Trust
Take me home to bed, to rest my head, I'm feeling overwhelmed
I, don't want to go, but if we take it slow, nobody has to know
Love is where you are, and when we part, the darkness closes in
Safe is what I feel, with you life is real, I wish that I could never leave
Mary is a temple of trust that can't be sold
Eyes of the ocean and a heart of gold
Shines like a diamond sings with the sirens, she steals my soul
Mary lays me down to was the pain
Breaking the heartache and drought, she brings the rain
Couldn't think of what to say as we ran into the month of May
We, we chase the sun, and when the night is done we greet the magic dawn
With your head in mine, life is fine, there's no such thing as time
Mary is a temple of trust that can't be sold
Eyes of the ocean and a heart of gold
Shines like a diamond sings with the sirens, she steals my soul
Mary lays me down to was the pain
Breaking the heartache and drought, she brings the rain
Take me home, I'm no longer alone, love is where you are
Life is fine, now that you're on my mind
With your hand on mine
Goodbye
Nothing's getting better, I tried to keep it in, but now it's getting out
Once we had the passion, the company we keep has filled you with doubt
Each day is just surviving, these four walls won't knock you off your cloud
All your excuses of failure, they just wear thin to the point where I don't care anymore
It's breaking my back don't question me about love, for I've got no feelings, feelings
When faith is torn apart it leaves me with no feeling, feelings
And walking out is where it starts
So goodbye, goodbye so long
I'm heading for blue skies, blue skies, it's where I belong
And tonight, tonight I smash the fear and walk away from dark times to sunshine
It's a beautiful day
Wanting to escape from all of the tyrants that surround us, my patience wearing thin
They don't care for consequence or authorities and empathy,
they've stripped me of feelings, feelings, these words of attitude
They won't stop me from believing, believing in what is real
So goodbye, goodbye so long
I'm heading for blue skies, blue skies, it's where I belong
And tonight, tonight I smash the fear and walk away from dark times to sunshine
It's a beautiful day
Raise the fight when you locked the door, take the blame you pushed on me
I don't abide to the painted view that won't let us be free
So goodbye, goodbye so long
I tried to keep it in, but now it's getting out, I want to scream and shout
For now I'm believing, believing in what is real
So goodbye, goodbye so long
I'm heading for blue skies, blue skies, it's where I belong
And tonight, tonight I smash the fear and walk away from dark times to sunshine
It's a beautiful day
So goodbye don't keep it, we've no longer secrets now
