Meet Me
03:57

|
Meet me on the mountaintop
Where all our dreams will start
Take my hand and see for miles
All I wanna see is your smile
I've know your name since the early days
When chaos reigned and I was always gettin' in my own way
We lit a match in a house of hay
Deadly but it was so damn warm that cold October day
Meet me in the woods backstage
This tune is taking shape
Maybe we could be something
Raise your voice with mine let's see
We've circled round this town too many times
And now you're pacing round my head for something you can't find
Your skin is always beneath my fingertips
Even when I'm by myself I taste you on my lips
If I leave this town will I ever get back to you?
If I lose my way, will you be there to guide me through
I'm so scared of getting lost
I'm so scared of going blind
If I get too far away, for you to see
Meet me underneath the tree
Meet me in a farmer's field
Under a tree we'll kneel
Close your eyes and feel the sun
Our lives have just begun

Keep Driving
03:46
|

I wanna drive down endless roads with you
I wanna cover coast to coast with you
I wanna learn things I don't know 'bout you
I wanna make this ground holy with you
Let's feel the air on our skin and the music inside our souls
Traveling on paths that no one knows
Got a full tank of gas and everywhere to go
Keep driving down, keep driving down the road
Secret places around every turn
And unique faces, we've got lots to learn
See the moon and the stars, they're putting on a show
Keep driving down, keep driving down the road
Ohhhh get out of this town
Ohhhh as fast as we can
Ohhhh fill my mind with new ideas
Get the wheels turning again
See the sunrise through the cold window
Sipping coffee in a world of oak
The road is empty but with you I'm not alone (oh no)
Keep driving down, keep driving down the road

Compass & Map
04:12
|
|||
|
I've got a compass and a map,
Follow the stream, create a path
On my way back home to you
Oh many days have passed
Strive to perfect my craft
On my way back home to you
Oh and storms I've weathered, bridges I've burned
Travellin' 'cross the land
Money I've had, riches I've lost
It makes you understand
You gotta pick your battles wisely young man
And I never promise
Any thing I can not do
Dear I promise
That I will always love you
After the years fade away
We'll be old and gray
Still I'll be purely loving you
Dear promise me you'll stay
Through all adversity
Still I'll be surely loving you

Stuck
03:00
|
|||
|
Oh I was not expecting, you to save me like this
And I know what this is, that I'm just an amateur
And it's true, just push through, past any inconsistencies
I can't stop wasting time,
Oh I've got you on my mind
I just keep looping through
Stuck on only me and you
They don't teach you what to learn, we're stuck and all alone
When it's time for your turn, you better know what to say
And it's true, just push through, past all these inconsistencies

Willow Hoop

The mountains in Montana are dark tonight
As I drive these winding roads, I can't see far
Where are we going, I missed all the signs
This highway is lit by only moonlight
Shining off the eyes of frightened elk
I know that you're sleeping in the backseat
But I can't help but feel I'm by myself
I'm alone inside a willow hoop around us
The horizon holds me everywhere I turn
Discord between light and dark surrounds us
But as I drive down the mountain, the more I learn
The cliffs of the west coast crumble in the rain
And I don't look behind me to see what remains
But I take a bone white branch to remember this place
These redwoods are older than the memory
Of the people and the lives that came before
All of us are a flash inside this story
But we're together here and purposefully formed
I'm alive inside a willow hoop around us
The horizon holds me everywhere I turn
Discord between light and dark surrounds us
But as I drive down the mountain, the more I learn
Such a shame that you can't know where you fit in
Until you get to see everything
Feel comfort in your own skin
Gravel roads lead to homes so diverse
And yet so much the same
It's a beautiful world so go and meet
Someone new, someone new
Someone new, somewhere new
Someone new, somewhere new

Halfway Between
03:05
|
|||
|
Halfway between grown and a child
I know it all but not who the hell I am
Numbers feel like the weight of the ocean
Pressing on my shoulders, heavy on my chest
Giving me life as it takes away my breath
Halfway between north and south
Walking from A without knowing B
Flat roads and tall grass as far as I can see
Home is a trap, sweet with honey
Can't step away but can't get back
Can't step away but can't get you back
Halfway between straight and wild
Too scared to look into my own darting eyes
A streak of lightning in a button down shirt
Burning down cities in a crisp set of slacks
Don't get excited but don't you dare relax
Halfway between grown and a child
Halfway between north and south
Halfway between straight and wild
Can't go all in but I can't get out
Can't go all in but I can't get out
Can't go all in but I can't get out

Journey
02:55

Cheer up darling, there is nothing to be down about today
It's a miracle that we are still standing, and beauty does surround us
Let's journey to the sea
Yeah just you and me
Let's travel across the world babe
Just let your sails unfurl
When it's all seen, we'll go around and hit the best parts again
See the sights and set down some roots and decide where to begin
Let's journey through the trees
And keep some honey bees
Let's build a place called home
When we no longer roam
Let's keep a steady pace,
I hope we never give up grace
Let's always take the time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine

Grew Up Thinking
03:14
|

|
Grew up thinking I'd know what I want
Once I was out on my own
Surely I'd have my own self figured out
And know where I'm meant to go
Got a job, got a dog, and I got a degree
Got a big house full of shit that I don't need
I thought that I would know my place in the world by now
But it's hard to achieve, when you can't see the finish line
The whole world's spinning past me and there's just one thing that's steady
I know nothing, but I know that I'm yours tonight
Now that I'm older I still don't know much
But here's some truth for free
I learned that it don't take a hell of a lot
To meet our basic needs
Got my friends, got my dog, made my own family
It's a wide world full of people I could meet
I know nothing, but I know that we're here tonight

As One
03:28
|

|
Oh baby, been thinkin' a lot about you lately
Oh honey, I wanna hold you closely to me, to me
I'd like to build a home in your heart and stay there for a while
Everything about that sounds perfect to me, to me
You know how it feels to feel everything at once
Tell me exactly what you mean, you mean
Like fire and a choir and a garden in bloom
Like wrapping yourself in a blanket cocoon
We will sing as one and dance into the sunset
Over and over as the days go by watchin' them slowly as I look into your eyes
There will be a day when come what may, baby
Things get tough, we'll never always have enough but you are everything I need
In my dreams we can fly up high
Soar around the world not worry when we're gonna die
We're always in a hurry let's just slow things down
Soak life in right here right now

True and Dear
02:52
|
|||
|
What if we cursed for the last time the day our child was born,
Only feelings can outlast time so let's no more live in scorn
This could be, a great reality
So let's love like we've got nothing
And run like we have to
And sing songs that sound like
Everything that's true and dear
And when I wander through the earth, I still come home to you
Every challenge we face; we grow stronger each day
What we create, is who we truly are
Time and space move on
But we stand still like the steel
That holds this building up
Forged in a fire; attraction burning brighter
Than anything that we will ever know
So let's love

Driving in a Dream
03:50
|
|||
|
Drifting heavy on the freeway
The moon floats bright behind me
One single firework lights the whole Montana sky
I've been rolling along underneath it all
Driving in a dream
Stained with sleep
Weighed down by everything I've seen
And somehow lifted
And somehow lifted
Maybe I could close my eyes and still see
The peaks and valleys spread before me
The curve of the sunrise through my eyelids
Lighting up the day
