MORNING LIGHT
Oh my love,
What have you been seeing
Oh my love,
I've been chasing dreams
But I’ve not forgotten
But I’ve not forgotten you and me
Oh my love,
Are you listening carefully
Oh my love,
I’m the whisper through the breeze
And I can’t remember
And I can’t remember
And I can’t remember who we used to be
If in the morning, you’re by my side
Then cast your shadow, shine your light
Then cast your shadow, shine your light
Light in the morning light
Light in the morning light

Thinking On You
There’s a storm out my window tonight
Heavy glow of the mountains in sweet summer light
I am a fool to think nothing on everything
I’m a fool to think nothing on you
There’s a cold summer vigil tonight
I will hold close my candle and keep out of sight
I’m a fool wishing nothing on anything
I”m a fool and I’m simply soaked through
Hold tight to what you’re made of
The smoke rising so close behind
As though you’re risking it all in this life
As though you know wrong from right
There’s a storm in my fingers tonight
Heavy glow from the hayloft and alkaline
I’m a man who is dreaming with wild eyes
I’m a fool when I’m thinking on you
Hold tight to what you’re made of
The smoke rising so close behind
As though you’re risking it all in this life
As though you know wrong from right
Hold tight to what you’re made of
The smoke rising so close behind
As though you’re risking it all in this life
As though you’re risking it all in this life
As though you know wrong from right

DIGGING DOWN
Down, down, down
I’m digging down
Digging down, Down, Down
Down in the ground
Tangled in your roots
Looking for the clues you left for me
Down into the dark
Halo in the mystery
And I
I will find you
Sound, sound, sound
I’m buried by it
Hear the sound, sound, sound
I’m cradled by it
Tracing over scars
All the things that used to be
Like names inside a heart
Carved into an old oak tree
And I
I will find you
If it’s the last thing I do
Down, down, down
I’m digging down
Digging down, Down, Down
Down in the ground
Soil in the sun
Ain’t no place I’d rather be
Than tangled in your roots
My stone beneath an old oak tree

HOLDING YOU
Standing and staring and waiting
Taking in the view
People are passing in warm embrace
And I just wanna hold you
Time tells some great stories
The boys that fell for you
I’m not that different
Yeah, I fell too
This time next year, I’ll be right there
Standing next to you
But tonight the sky is bright and clear
So I’ll dream of holding you
Time square is bustling
It’s drowning out my tune
Auld Lang Sine we sing
I just want to hold you
This time next year, I’ll be right there
Standing next to you
But tonight the sky is bright and clear
So I’ll dream of holding you
Clock hands are counting
The year will start anew
Sunrise to sundown to crescent moon
I just wanna hold you
Yeah I just wanna hold you

CAN YOU TELL
There are words climbing out my mouth
They are saying just how great you are
But I don’t know if you can hear them
And I don’t know if it means anything at all
Can you tell?
There are people gathered around
Telling stories, it’d make you proud
But I don’t know if you can hear them
And I don’t know if it means anything at all
And I’m sorry for not being more around
And I’m sorry I decided to leave town
And I wonder if it’s all just as well
Darling, can you tell?
Can you tell?
