And I'm Back

I'm back
In action
New shirt, new girlfriend
I'm back
Moving downtown
It's time for a change
Spent all my money
Las Vegas, Miami
Tried to forget you
Sold all my shit that I love
I'm Back
After so much time
Thought I'd be lost without you
You
But new doc, new prescription, started dancing
And I'm Back
When did I start to fade into the same old same old same old
Same old thing I used to feel like
Oh I'm back
In my reflection
I'm back
No question

What Is There Instead?

I formed a picture of your carousel
A mise en scene inside the mind
Weather's fair but storm's a'blowing in
Couldn't find a better high
So low in Soho where the river bends
Hudson to Holland on the line
There I find you barely holding in
A peel of laughter through the vines
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead
You turned to me and said "It's all contrived; every pause and every line"
But every time I think about it lately
There's hidden meaning still to fine
I still wanna be your love baby
What I really came to say tonight
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead of love?
What is there instead

Woke up in your fancy daydream
Sun shining on your garden party
Don't sigh you're never alone
Woke up in your fancy party
Sun shining on your garden daydream
Slept on my lawn
Up with the sun
Time on my hands
No, no real plans
I think I'm into fancy white wine
Never really gave it a good try
White wine, nice nice
Standing where I thought I saw her
Looking like a paper moonbeam
Slept on my lawn (I didn't know which way was up)
Up with the sun (thought that I was back in time)
Time on my hands (But something tells me "no")
No, no real plans

Anyway (However)

Looking back I was a wreck
I was a fool then
I wanted the best, and I was a mess
I'd never really been tested, like
Maybe you don't wanna know this time
I, I didn't want to spoil my fun for me
You would know the feeling
It seeming so sad, I turn to my left
I see your reaction, like
"How could anyone do that to me? Everything was feeling new and free"
I, I didn't want to spoil my fun for me
You would know the feeling
It seems unkind
But we're in my car and who cares anyway?
You would know the feeling

If You Were Me

We only wanted to see you happy
Hope you're happy now
If you only wanted to see me happy, hope you're happy now
If you were me somehow, you'd be happy now
Thirty years of struggle and there's nothing left to show
What about the we save from bitterness we sew
How can you make love so strong when pain is all we feel?
We only wanted to see you happy
Hope you're happy now
If you only wanted to see me happy, hope you're happy now
If you were me somehow, you'd be happy now

Hey son, are you still a musician?
Find you're making a living?
Do you sleep in late?
I hear you got a new girlfriend and I hear you're looking for a room to rent
Is that true?
And is she happy with you?
Well good for you
Boy I'm glad to hear it, boy I'm glad to hear it
If it's good for me maybe I'll see you around
Do you know what song you should do?
Do you know what song you should do? (Why don't you tell me?)
Do you know what song you should do?
Do you know what song you should do? (Why don't you tell me?)
Should I give you up?
Should I see what comes out of it?
Should I give you up?
When I'd like to see what comes out of it?
Should I give you up?
When I'd like to see what comes out of it?
Should I give you up?
When I'd like to see what comes out of it?
Would you like to know? Would you like to see?

Get Out the Way!
02:02

You want love but you know it ain't growing
Your big man he's fee fi fum fo-ing
Come on you don't have to lie to me
Get out the way, come on get going
You wanna stay but you're twitching and moaning
You know you don't have to lie to leave
You know you don't have to lie to me
Everyone hopes everything will be forgiven
Still I suppose life ain't worth living alone
As far as it goes, everyone knows that you shouldn't be here right now
Then your father slept with your mother
Well yeah, oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Oh yeah

Little Love In My Life
02:50

Remember flying down the Ottawa River
In the summer that'd broken my hand
Didn't play guitar until at least November
And even then I was a curse to my band
I wasn't living on the brightest side
I could've used a little love in my life
I should have spent a little more time outside
You take a look in my eyes
So you remember but it's nothing like I do
I swear somewhere I've got a picture of me
You looking like we found the love of our lifetime
Could'a said the same thing for me
What was the name of that old bartender?
Who served us drinks under the carnival light?
He told the one about the plumber in a leotard
He got us laughing but we didn't know why
You should've what I was wearing for Pride
I think I know how you'd be feeling inside
Didn't look so flashy has the flashiest guy
But I had a look in my eye
So you remember but it's nothing like I do
I swear somewhere I've got a picture of me
You looking like we found the love of our lifetime
Could'a said the same thing for me
I still could use a little love in my life
Like every Christmas when I'm smoking inside
Or every New Year's when the music is jive
Or when I look in my eyes

What Our Love Is Worth
02:33

I'll tell you every day
I'm talking all the time
I wanna tell you that I know how much our love is worth
Do you ever spend a minute thinking about your soul
In time away from television and the telephone
I think you might be likely falling for the one in me
It'll make you happy and we'll start a little family
When you were young it felt like summer might just never end
And all your friends will probly always be your closest friends
So many times I think I used to know what love's about
Then something happened and I can't seem to work it out
Ooo work it out
I believe we'll work it out
You ever wonder if this life is like a palindrome?
Call up a friend and talk about it while you're walking home
You see the people in the places where they used to be
I feel I'm part of all the love I know was meant for me
So tell me, how am I supposed to be behaving now?
Could stay at home but I'm accustomed to my going out
So many times I think I used to know what love's about
If something happens then I know we'll always work it out
Whoa work it out
I'll tell you every day
I'm talking all the time
I wanna tell you that I know how much our love is worth
