East Coast

Oh I need you now
Like I needed you then,
Like I’ll need you till the end
But I can’t recall
This feeling at all.
And I want you now
Like I wanted you then
Like I’ll want you till the end
But it sure appears
The surface is near.
And just like that we were steered
Now we’re what I most fear
Oh the East Coast sure was clear
I must fight for you my dear.
Oh I love you now
Like I loved you then
Like I’ll love you till the end
But I can’t refuse
This kind of blue.
Through partial ocean sprayed views
A darkness ensues
And as we become something new
You must fight for me too
You must fight for me too.

We Danced
03:52
|
|||
I dreamt last night that a Mustang went right through the trees,
and ended up three feet from where we watch TV.
And of a time when a piece of some flight, yeah it fell from the sky,
on the lawn, between you and I.
Everyone panicked, the neighbourhood vanished, but you and I,
we took our chance.
Oh we turned the ignition, yeah, rolled down and listened to
“So Long Marianne”
And we danced.
I dreamt last night we were standing in line,
and some guy who looked like L. Cohen buying wine said
“I’m dying”.
And everyone there opened up what they were holding and raised a drink
to the man, and his great sense of timing.
And as the walls collapsed, and bottles cracked, you and I took it as,
our last chance.
And right before I woke, I grabbed my phone, and streamed
“Everybody Knows”
and took your hand, and we danced.
Yeah we danced.

On A Beach ft. Feist
04:05
|

We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and there’s sand at our feet
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and you’re fond of me.
Just breath out and In, keep your eyes on this ring
As I swing it back and forth on this here string
Eyelids are heavy wings, all the things that trouble you
Fall right out of the room and we begin
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and there’s sand at our feet
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and you’re fond of me.
Now you take your turn, concentrate the sound
Of my voice or the spaces in between my words
And find yourself in a world, where you can simply relax
See most of your worries lapse or seem absurd.
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and there’s sand at our feet
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and you’re fond of me.
I wanna see, yeah I mean really see
All the beauty that’s right in front of me.
I wanna be, Oh yeah I wanna be
Where the sun rises behind palm trees.
This ain’t meant to be, yeah listened to while we
drive, or operate heavy machinery. X 2
We’re on a beach, oh yeah we’re on a beach
We’re drinking income taxes and we’re out of reach. X 2

When I was young,
I thought every little thing weighed a ton
But when I saw you, in Terry Cloth Blue
I felt much lighter, it’s true.
You, with your crimped blonde hair,
You were new, and I just stared
We’d meet in my dreams to “Save A Prayer”
Whenever I hear it, I’m still there.
When I believed in, I believed in, I believed in
Every single thing.
I believed in, yeah I believed in, I believed in
Every single thing.
I, I learned to play
“Careless Whisper” on the sax so one day
I’d come by your house and serenade
But I never did and then you moved away.
You had no idea
What you did for me those two years
Yeah I was the fool, Terry Cloth Blue
Who you never knew.
When I believed in, yeah I believed in, I believed in
Every single thing.
I believed in, yeah I believed in, I believed in
Every single thing.
Now that I’m not young.
I think every little thing weighs a ton,
But when I saw you, in Terry Cloth Blue
I was much lighter, it’s true.

Nothing Wrong
04:06
|

There’s nothing wrong with you
There’s nothing wrong with you
There’s nothing wrong with you
You are still my favourite creature,
You are my past as well as future,
My sweet destroyer of car mirrors.
We’ve got to keep our heads while hanging on by a thread
We’ve got to keep our heads while hanging on by a thread
Keep our heads.
There’s nothing wrong with us
There’s nothing wrong with us
There’s nothing wrong with us
‘Cause you are still my favourite answer,
My one and only take-a-chancer,
When your bra hangs from the dear antlers
We are brand new.
Got to lose our heads while hanging on by a thread
Got to lose our heads while hanging on by a thread
Yeah, lose our heads
Lose our heads
Lose our heads - Got to lose our heads while hanging on by a thread
Lose our heads - Got to lose our heads while hanging on by a thread
Yeah, lose our heads
Lose our heads - Got to lose our heads while hanging on by a thread.
Lose our heads

Are We Good
04:30
|
|||
I’m walking home alone
Tripping over every stone
Everything we never do
Everything I put you through
I’m turning every leaf
I’m looking for belief
In the promises we kept
Always have a little left
I know why you needed something else
I put your love too high on a shelf
You have the greatest heart I’ve ever seen
Sometimes love ain’t always all you need
Are you worried about the past
Coming back to you too fast
Are you worried about the sea
And what’s going on underneath
Do you think of me at all
The way I think of you
Everything we never say
Everything we never do
Are we good enough to get through this okay
I don’t wanna be alone again today
You have the greatest heart I’ve ever seen
Sometimes love ain’t always all you need
We never stop to count the cost
Don’t worry about the time we lost, we never lost
Are we good
Are we good

Window Washer Blues
02:42
|
|||
One day work lent you a drone
I took the kids out to the lawn
It lifted off and went up high
But disappeared into the sky, it’s true.
We got the window washer blues
We’re always outside looking through
We got the window washer blues
Looking in is all we do.
One day we were walking soft
Dangerously planning stuff
Cloudless slumber, stirring wonder
Into whirling, furrowed thunder, it’s true.
We got the window washer blues
We’re always outside looking through
We got the window washer blues
Looking in is all we do.

Miss Fort Erie
04:28
|

Every time my case is packed
And I’m leaving out that door
I sell you you’re not missing much
Out there on the road
We play Buffalo, for ten people, and then load our shit
Drive for under, half an hour, to some Motel 6
Watch some minutes, of some idiots, talking on some show
Play some guitar to the mini-bar, fall asleep in my clothes.
You get mad and say I should
Enjoy this for us both
So I decide to tell some truth
With this tale from the road
We left Toronto, for the first show, and everybody sang
They sang along to, words about you, oh the whole place rang
There was a party, and everybody, came to our hotel
Character actors, beautiful drunk girls, getting along well
Mirrors on tables, TV’s out windows, bathtubs filled with wine
I wake up weary, with Miss Fort Erie, opening the blinds.
Oh that last bit, about the blinds, shit
That was said to make you smile.
You’re meant to be right here, you’re meant to be right here
With me, for all these miles.
You’re meant to be right here, you’re meant to be right here
With me, for all these miles.

It's Just Me
02:45
|
|||
Lock up the house,
don’t burn it down,
Leave it here
We might be back around.
Take the keys
off the rings and leave them
in the jewelry box
under the lemon tree
As long as I belong to you
You’ll belong to me too
But I find it hard to believe that we’re free
I find it hard to believe that we’re free
I find it hard to believe that we’re free
I find it hard to believe it’s just me
We'll drive the car
Up to the swimming pool
Fill it to the ceiling with
All the heavy feeling
As long as I belong you
You’ll belong to me too
And I find it hard to believe that we’re free
Yeah, I find it hard to believe that we’re free
I find it hard to believe that we’re free
Yeah, I find it hard to believe that we’re free
I find it hard to believe it’s just me
I find it hard to believe it’s just me.

Lay This In My Mind
03:16
|

Waves, how you love their ways
How many times, when we were side by side
In the nights we’d never hide
Did you lay this in my mind
Did you lay this in my mind
And the skies, how you love their goodbyes
How many nights when we were side by side
In the pink and yellow light
Did you lay this in my mind
Did you lay this in my mind.
We both know this place ain’t hard to find
We both know this place ain’t hard to find
So what’s with all this wasting of time.
Lakes, oceans, seas or bay’s
How many times when we were side by side,
In the nights we’d never hide
With our city in decline,
And both of us just fine,
Did you lay this in my mind
Did you lay this in my mind.
We both know this place ain’t hard to find
We both know this place ain’t hard to find
So what’s with all this wasting of time
What’s with all this wasting of time
What’s with all this wasting of time

Can't Happen Now
05:15
|
|||
Please keep deceiving me baby, give me a line
I feel like I’m losing you lately, but it can’t happen now
I’ll fall through the earth, I’ll die from the thirst,
I’ll shatter like glass, I’ll turn into ash
I’ll melt into water, I’ll run to the slaughter,
Go silent for years, then I’ll burst into tears
I need you stick around a little while longer
Just till the world ends, just till I’m stronger
I need you to stay here tonight if you can
I can’t explain ‘cause I don’t understand
Don’t say it can’t wait when you know that it can
It can’t happen now.
You haven’t been seeing me lately, and I don’t know how
You’re the only one that can save me, I know it somehow
I’ll fall through the earth, I’ll die from the thirst,
I’ll shatter like glass, I’ll turn into ash
I’ll melt into water, I’ll run to the slaughter,
Go silent for years, then I’ll burst into tears
I need you stick around a little while longer
Just till the world ends, just till I’m stronger
I need you to stay here tonight if you can
I can’t explain ‘cause I don’t understand
Don’t say it can’t wait when you know that it can
You know that it can (can't)
My heart couldn’t take it
You know what would make it
You know that it can
It can’t happen now
