gratz park inn
02:09
|

let’s get up, go for a walk and shake off last night
waking up next to you always justifies my sight
we’ll peek in the windows of the house on the park
the one on market street with all the fancy art
you liked the lucite chairs, me the penguin
I think we should knock on the door
and become their best friends
we went to the party down on jefferson street
you in that fall sunset did something to me
I always wanted to feel exactly like this
the genie the lamp the rub the wish
come meet me at the gratz park inn

rocks, splash of soda
03:12
|

who are you and where you’d come from
and where have you been all my life
silver shoes with a cigar in your hand
i think I’ll come over there and stand
blanton’s on the rocks in your other hand
i think I just became your biggest fan
you’re the prettiest dude i’ve ever met
and that’s a pretty big complement
i’m sure I am your biggest fan
i don’t I think I know what’s happening
but I know I’d wonder the rest of my life

on your phone
02:19
|
|||
there’s a girl I used to know
and she was always on her phone
get off the phone
there’s a guy I used to know
and he was always on his phone
get off the phone
just close your eyes, what do you feel inside
hearts, fingers, toes, eyes, ears, nose

sunburn in versailles
03:33
|
|||
when i said i love you, i pictured you there
a honeymoon in paris , french sun blonde hair
the way your eyes will sparkle on the champs elysees
walking hand in hand on the narrow streets of marais
a warm sunny day on a bike in versailles
a kiss at the temple of love, it all made sense why
your skin kissed by the glorious french sky
never saw it coming, sunburn in versailles

hueytown hum
02:52
|
|||
holding hands in a circle saying prayers
suddenly bewildering blank stares
dogs howling at the moon
quickly quickly ends the tune
a neighborhood taken over by the sound
eminates vibrating in the ground
you find yourself breathing in time with the hum
wondering where does it come from
you hear them rocking in the streets
you hear them shaking in their sheets
rattling the plate off the walls
rattling the ceilings and the floors

so this is love
03:12
|
|||
we kidded around about running away together
while I was showing you the ropes
i had you come to ky whisky blue sky perfect weather
i really had no idea what was in store, nope, no
i did not know exactly what it was that I was feeling
as I had never felt this way before
like a helium balloon I was floating up on the ceiling
this was not something I could ignore, no
a love like this I thought was only make believe
a love that truly penetrates your soul
a then i saw what this life had hidden up its sleeve
and now I know that, so this is love

those eyes
02:56
|
|||
its those eyes that make everything all right
they say come home tonight
the way they look at me, they are everything
the way they sparkle in the light
first time they pulled me inside
so deep and so blue, i fell in love you
the sun was setting high, in the lexington sky
it made those eyes come alive, butterflies

cowboy
03:08
|
|||
i’m trying to tell you your exactly where you supposed to be
i’m trying to tell but it’s like talking to the wall
every decision, every choice and transition that you’ve ever had
your resume, job description, every stumble, every fall
nobody promised you’d be a cowboy, no one promised you a hat
nobody promised you anything, how about that
strategically placing all your pieces onto the board
focusing on park place and the other one that’s blue
but instead, you ended up with marvin gardens and blah blah
its no surprise to anyone, anyone but you
nobody said you ride a white horse, ride in to save the day
nobody said you’d have someone to save anyway
nobody promised you’d be a cowboy, firing your guns in the air
nobody has seen Tonto anywhere
nobody promised a celebration, your very own ticker tape parade
nobody promised you anything, at all

placed your heart
03:25
|
|||
tell me where it is you’ve placed your heart
using paste and strings to keep it from falling apart
i’d like to have a chance to hold it in my hands again
and put it in a place that it can love
will you give me one more time
to show you who i am to give me all my love
|

just for me
01:47
|
|||
you moved out east, just for me
one year ago, i’m so happy
i always thought that this could be
without you no possibility
one year ago, just for me

she's so
02:52
|
|||
there’s something about the way that she smiles
there’s something about the air she leaves behind
there’s something about the way she tosses her hair
there’s just something because i stare
there’s something about the way she looks at me
there’s just something you’ve got to see to believe
there’s something about the twinkle in her eye
there’s just something that she can’t hide
i try to see i try to be she's so something I cant believe
i stay awake i stay up late she’s so something and i….

chicago give me a kiss
02:10
|
|||
sitting sixteen stories above the river across the lake
imbibing fraternizing with smiles on our face
chicago come give me a kiss
once we land let’s have a few midway harry caray’s
one for me three for you
now its lunch at the london house
we all want a view, one of you
then we wander up to terrace sixteen
sun in face, wind in hair
just our gang on the top of the world
