Keep Showing You

I know we've been through this before , where I keep asking for more. At night when I let my head fall, I often wonder if you need me at all.
I wonder how bad you've been hurt before? I can't fix whats broken in you, the sun can't fix a crack in the door, just let in the warmth, and share with you my heart. I'm not looking for an answer, just a place I can start.
Keep on showing you what my love can do.
Keep on showing you what my love can do.
I know you've seen this before, it usually sends you running right out the door. I'm telling you I'll be waiting right here, when you come running to me, and you`re ready for more.
I'll just keep on showing you what my love can do.
Keep on showing you what my love can do.
I won't be going far , I've got nothing but time.
I'll just, keep on showing you what my love can do.
Keep on showing you what my love can do.
I'll just, keep on showing you what my love can do
ooo ooo, ooo ooo, ooo ooo, ooo ooo,
I'll just keep on showing you , no matter what we're going through

One Chance

I was running late, but I'm on my way
Took a wrong turn when I should have gone straight
Looking in the rearview, at the choices I've made
You waited so long you're starting to fade
There comes a time when you've gotta look back
I don't blame you, you took your own path
Had to learn the hard way, you sure move fast
I tried to keep up can you give me that?
Ahhh
Was it up to me or did it come my way?
How can I learn if I stay the same?
I tried to change too little too late
all the time I was running away (I was running away)
They gave me one chance
They gave me one chance
They gave me one chance to be what they wanted me to be
They gave me one chance to be what they wanted me to be

It's that time again, get down to beg you don't draw my name. Hold onto your faith, victory is mine I refuse to trade.
Waiting at the gate , the Bets Are placed we've got a show to play.
I hope you brought your game, the notes I play are never by mistake.
Whoo , whoo, whoo , whoo .
My life's tied up in strings , An angry puppet dancing in the ring. The longer that I stay,
the more that leave with pieces of their face.
Whoo , whoo , whoo , whoo .
Woah , woah ,woah .
It's that time again, get down to beg you don't draw my name. Hold onto your faith, victory is mine I refuse to trade.
Whoo , whoo , whoo , whoo.

Walking in the Dark
04:08

Smokey stack across the park
That's where you made your great escape
Is exactly where I am parked
Been here almost every day
Sit and think about you
Everything you could have done
It's not the same here without you
It's like I'm walking in the dark
Someone said it in a song
Thought I'd like to sing along
It's like I'm singing the words from someone's heart
It's like I'm, I'm walking in the dark
Tuesdays are the longest days
That's the day you left for good
Slept throughout the weekend
I walked the hall, slept in your room
I am searching every window
For something that may have been forgot
You left your things they were scattered
And now I'm picking up the parts
Someone said it in a song
Thought I'd like to sing along
It's like I'm singing the words from someone's heart
It's like I'm, I'm walking in the dark
Smokey stack across the park
That's where you made your great escape

Middle Ground
02:51

If the mornings lousy, the night was great.
My luck is leaving , or comes in spades .
If I'm not early , I'll be late .
I'm falling apart , or I'm right as rain .
My mind's at peace, or full blown war .
I care less , or I'm keeping score.
I leave with nothing , or the whole store .
If I don't want less , I want more .
Here I come ( there I go ) .
Saying yes ( or otherwise no ) .
I go fast , and I go slow .
Middle ground is a friend I still don't know . Oh I still don't know .
I walk with angels or live in sin .
I'm head over heels or just having a fling .
The divorce that awaits me , my right hand penned , while my left hand is busy wearing the ring .
Here I come ( there I go ) .
Saying yes ( or otherwise no ) .
I go fast , and I go slow .
Middle ground is a friend I still don't know .
Here I come ( there I go ) .
Saying yes ( or otherwise no ) .
I go fast , and I go slow .
Middle ground is a friend ( woah ) .
Middle ground is a friend ( woah ) .
Middle ground is a friend I still don't know .

My Love

Love comes love goes waves come fast not slow , hits you hard and every part takes you out , or mends your heart .
A simple point that should be made , let love come first for heaven sake's . Hearts get wrecked from selfish ways , keep them safe yet not afraid.
My love try love , my love try love
There's a choice that can be made sit on the sides or join the game , at times it's tough at times it's bliss you got to play to get hit.
Can be unkind when the goings rough the hardened kind are too cold to stay , it's an easy out there's no doubt it's colder alone and grey .
My love try love , my love try love
My love, try love
My love, try love
My love, try love
Da da da da da da da da da ...
My love, try love ( it's colder )
My love, try love ( it's an easy out )
My love, try love

Gonna move to the country

I’m sleeping in the long green grass
Gonna make my move
Gonna build log cabin

Sleeping in the forest

Gonna dig a big garden
Plant the roots
Sleeping in the forest

Sleeping in the forest
Like I should

Not A Fight

I know when the trees are gone the birds will lose their sacred song , and the dark clouds will roll in.
Life it knows no other Day , knows no other simple way, but how do you tell it to Change .
This is not a fight , this is not a fight but it feels like it though .
This is not a fight , this is not a fight,
But that's how it goes .
A darkened world we left behind no shoulder left to leave her cry, oh how we said goodbye .
The only song that's left to sing is how we gave up everything , for a little bit of change .
This is not a fight , this is not a fight but it feels like it though .
This is not a fight , this is not a fight ,
but that's how it goes .
Do do do do do , do do do do do , do do do do do .
Do do do do do , do do do do do , do do do do do.

Dark Train

You're like a bird with a broken wing, falling fast spiralling.
I can only catch you so many times. Please put to rest the demons in your mind.
There's nothing I can do, there's nothing I can say, when you're riding on the dark trying to heaven.
How are you so close for me to touch, yet so far out of reach ?Flying down these rails you're playing on repeat , train won't let you have your soul to keep.
There's nothing I can do , there's nothing I can say, when you're riding on the dark train to heaven.
Don't go , don't go , oh oh oh
Don't go , don't go , oh oh
All alone again you're dancing in the dark ,your shallow eyes the only thing left shining . How long will it take ? How long will you wait, to fall off this fast train you're riding ?
There's nothing I can do, there's nothing I can say, when you're riding on the dark train to heaven.
There's nothing I can do, there's nothing I can say, when you're riding on the dark train to heaven.
There's nothing I can do, there's nothing I can say, when you're riding on the dark train to heaven.

Pick up Truck
02:47

Like a snowflake falls and quickly melts away
The sun it shines
The water on your hand is glistening
You reach out into the cold and stretch your thumb in the air
There’s no need to worry, I’m pretty sure I’ve been there
It might take all night
And the weathers not looking good
But the back of a pickup truck could work
When the sun goes down the highway looks longer
The cars go by fewer and less familiar
Your palms are sweaty, there’s excitement in the air
In a car or two who knows you might get somewhere
It might take all night
And the weathers not looking good
But the back of a pickup truck could work
It might take all night
And the weathers not looking good
But the back of a pickup truck could work
Like a snowflake falls and quickly melts away

Sweet Alibi Winnipeg, Manitoba
There is more than a touch of magic in the luminous vocal harmonies powering the soulful roots pop of Winnipeg combo Sweet
Alibi.
The voices of Jess , Amber and Michelle are tightly braided together, as they are in the super-sticky title track of their dazzling fourth album, Make A Scene, or are ornamenting Ayre’s lead on the gorgeously propulsive and contemplative “Slow Down,”
