And Then It Hit Me

These back porch lights don’t touch the dirt
At the edge of the fence, no cause for alert
The path is clear, there’s no need to divert
This manmade light will have to do
It’s taking me from here to you
Concrete jungle, now I’ve made it through
And then it hit me (x3)
Like pure fate, you were already gone
I’ll just walk back home
I had no ill intention when trouble arrived
But bitter thoughts need not be contrived
Whoever thought of this can’t be alive
It’s him or me and I’ve made that clear
But when I leave to start the New Year
I’ll make damn sure that he knows I was here
And then it hit me (x3)
I’d lost the hate.
He was already gone, and I will never walk alone
And to all of my friends, Happy New Year!
And to all the dead-ends, Happy New Year!
And if I see you again, Happy New Year!
I’ll give you something to mend, Happy New Year!

Button Up And Fly

Hey, no way
It's time for me to shine on you
It's true, you'll find
Just look into my eyes
And hear my words instead now
Float up through the sky
Don't go looking down now baby
Faster, button up and fly
Oh my, it's fine
You can open up your eyes
It's time to fly
Just look into my eyes
And hear my words instead now
Float up through the sky
Don't go looking down now baby
Faster, button up and fly
Bye bye
Now they seem so small
Bye bye
Meant nothing at all
Bye bye
woah
(repeat)

I'd Like To Know
02:30

I see you standing there all the time
But I have no idea what you're like
But wait, I think I'd like to know (2x)
I see you staring at my guitar
Yet I have no clue who you are
But wait, I think I'd like to know (2x)
(Bridge)
But wait, I think I'd like to know (4x)

Walk Away
03:01

I may have been reckless and a bit disappointing,
But I never abandoned you; I never let you down.
You were so jealous, or just bored, I’m not sure,
But you left me without warning; I loved watching you walk away
Walk away, away, away (x2)
You thought I’d be devastated but I’m still standing here
And I’ve got my two feet planted firmly on the ground.
And if you came back to me, I’d stay right where I am,
I’m happier than ever and I’m gonna stay that way
Stay that way, that way, that way (x2)
Oh, walk away, away, away (x2)

Just Trying To Do

Hope I didn't grey on you
Please let my colors be
And lend me an ear to sing in to
I see the who in you
You're just being you
And that makes us great
I'm just trying to do
What's best for you and me
I love you (2x)
But don't let them rain on you
Hurt their high and come to see
This is just love you're falling in to
I see the who in you
You're just being you
That makes us great
I'm just trying to do
What's best for you and me
I love you (4x)
Just trying to do (4x)
I love you
