You sat next to me While everyone was moving their feet I loved the way you leaned on me And I'll say your name The name behind a million words Not capable of describing you A Perfect pretty girl And lately I've been scraping over you But my words can hardly be construed If everything I sang was a wish You'd be right here with me I will take you everywhere I've been, whoa And I will hold you till my hands won't grip, whoa I like the things that make me feel relaxed She doesn't know it but it’s when I'm looking in her eyes She’s so beautiful She’s so beautiful to me She’s so beautiful I don't want to do it alone Let’s explore every last street of New York We'll take the high the low, I don't care where we go As long as you're smiling next to me I will take you everywhere I've been, whoa And I will hold you till my hands won't grip, whoa Again I'll lie and say I'm selfish My own demise I cannot help this You're taking steps away from me I'm the fallen paint from my ceiling The scriptures written on the page Will lay my head to rest Just do or tell a yes or no You're killing me and you're still home I will take you everywhere I've been, whoa And I will hold you till my hands won't grip, whoa I will take you everywhere I've been, whoa And I will hold you till my hands won't grip, whoa

I saw you walking towards me I've never felt better than admiring your smile And you'll say hello again, and again I’ll stutter I'm following your glance And you'll walk, and you'll glow, my insecurities will grow What must a boy like me do to have a girl like you? That’s my question Just make your eyes talk once again And you wanted to hang but then sat with them instead What did I do? I got up and left Climbed a roof, sang a song, got arrested Its days like these that make me feel like shit And the most I’ll get is distant admiration So limit your dreams Mike, limit your dreams Maybe then you'll reach more than reality So Maybe you'll give me a chance In the near future maybe for a minute Rather than forever I’m so used to small talk So stop laying more stops I’m delayed either way, every day Will I catch the train? Will I catch the train? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa So Maybe you'll give me a chance In the near future maybe for a minute Rather than forever I’m so used to small talk Stop laying more stops I’m delayed either way, every day Will I catch the train? Will I catch the train? Maybe you'll give me a chance In the near future maybe for a minute Rather than forever I’m so used to small talk Stop laying more stops I’m delayed either way, every day Will I catch the train? Will I catch the train? Will you hold the door?

Whoa When your hair shines sunset red, when the suns over your head Found the best times in the glimpse of your smile Whoa when I'm listening to you Talk about the books that you’re into Deep thought, smile at the conversation Late night open eyes Oh When I'm thinking feeling blue Frames hugging artwork about you Fly across my system like a shooting star Whoa you’re like the rain in the spring One of my all time favorite things Oh it seems like all I have to bring Is wasted time and lullabies And your name is something sweet And you're killing me, killing me alright With the corners of your lips (you're smiling) And if only you would know The perfect words your name was brought to be Another wave The moon will pull Me away Stars from you Your talks are like no whispers in Space my mind is traveling The ground I'm on Is crumbling It’s had enough misery Your art like ears, a harps no fear My eyes will see but my chest is a mystery Whoa you can still want something that’s very unlikely to come And I think that’s what’s keeping me up Whoa when I think of you and I Will I ever be compromised? I’ll be drawing signals on your phone That’s evident, I'm missing you I always looked at you the way you never looked at me I’d take you somewhere where the stars are visible You'll look up and grin And I’ll be fine with my eyes laid on you There’s more to the universe in you And you'll be fine tonight Ignoring the signals that I'm sending your eyes With your friends drinking on a Saturday night While I'm pushing this wood to a shot of a light Another, highway with a view of the sky Fast paced cars without a care in their minds I’m counting the stars that are left I’m counting the songs in my head Another wave The moon will pull Me away Stars from you Your talks are like no whispers in Space my mind is traveling The ground I'm on Is crumbling It’s had enough misery Your art like ears, a harps no fear My eyes will see but my chest is a mystery And finally, stop wandering I’ve spoken to the universe Apparition, never seen something like it Flowers sunset, I fearfully love her Within, within miles within I've drowned to trenches Still floating in space Your Colors are beautiful Your sea is so magical Black table cloth with salt all over A micro dust that’s us again With our temporary light A planetary nebula The ending so extraordinary Speak to the stars Though we're not the same Gliding green, petrichor's true A crying sky, a walk through Manu Spiritual travel, a can't catch up A fragrance present, beautifully strange Show it all with a smile

Sun rising and my eyes wide I wonder if she ever thinks about me Late night talks with her Nothing more than a dream It’s long gone with her smile and her voice I hate the nights you crawl inside my head The way you grip my brain With your bare hands Please understand That time slipped by Once again I do feel alone most of the time I’ve grown to rely on it to keep me from pretending I'm fine If your smile won’t leave I guess I'm where I'm supposed to be When that’s the worst I know that I should leave I hate the nights you crawl inside my head The way you grip my brain With your bare hands Please understand That time slipped by Once again I don't know where to turn anymore The worlds against me, against me I don't know where to turn anymore The worlds against me, you're against me

Isolation, one of my best attributes You shaped who I am, now I’m calling out to you I know but I can’t show I’m simply better off alone Being torn is the closest I’ll ever get to her When will I stop thinking about her? It’s been a fucking year and I’m struggling with change These late night walks replace 3 AM fights and laughs they fade Yet her smile still remains and I’m still kicking my wall again These cold summer nights make me fear the winter more I’m not the same so don’t ever treat me like before How can someone so far away constantly step on you? Being on the floor is the closest I’ll get to know myself When will I stop thinking about her? It’s been a fucking year and I’m struggling with change These late night walks replace 3 AM fights and laughs they fade Yet her smile still remains and I’m still kicking my wall again Here I am finding myself Every night falling deeper in I missed you more yesterday but everyday seems like the first I can’t shut my eyes and sleep Restless nights keep telling me I am the bug inside the house Sees the window but won’t get out When will I stop thinking about her? It’s been a fucking year and I’m struggling with change These late night walks replace 3 AM fights and laughs they fade Yet her smile still remains and I’m still kicking my wall again
