about

It turns out I mainly write love songs.

lyrics

Bloodshot eyes, I haven't slept for days,
I haven't shaved for weeks, relax it's just a phase,
Blue, blue eyes, lines form on my face,
White lines rushing past, I just can't take the pace,
Loving eyes shining into mine,
Hands that brush my cheek, now I'm feeling fine.

The touch, the smell, the taste and sound,
It's all improved when you're around,
The little things that get to me,
Are lifted off and now I'm free.
Sensations of the things we are,
The warmest coat, the brightest star,
I'm lost and found, I'm safe and sound,
And things are good when you're around.

I read my books and I watch my TV,
And I concentrate hard on simply trusting the memory,
Lights out at one and lights back on at two,
I'm lying awake but not lying with you.

And the sins of the father are the sins of the son,
There's no escaping the things that I've done,
Trying to argue but you've already won,
And when I think it's all over it's only begun.

The touch, the smell, the taste and sound,
It's all improved when you're around,
The little things that get to me,
Are lifted off and now I'm free.
In pieces as the day begins,
The prizefighter who never wins,
I long to hear that certain voice,
I have to smile, I have no choice,
Sensations of the things we are,
The warmest coat, the brightest star,
I'm lost and found, I'm safe and sound,
And things are good when you're around.
