Call Me Sir
Rollin' out of bed in the morning
I'm thinking of shaving
Gotta beat the afternoon lunch rush
For a coffee and a donut
I hear a voice from over my sholder
Did my ears deceive me?
Excuse me but do you have the time, sir?
I turned around and I said...
Why Call me sir?
I don't even look like Paul or Elton
But I'm getting there
I feel this old
When they call me sir
Rushin' in to look in the mirror
A wrinkle, a grey hair
Thinking that the clock isn't turning
A month here, a day there
Still I'm gonna' play my guitar
and check my IRA
Future's looking clearer than ever
Thanks to minor surgery
Join me in the wagon to a drive-through retro
Buyin' by the slice and you're layin down the cash man
Memory is hazy but I still remember Five-0
Hippies and the yuppies and the dot com geeks and...

Florentine

Another mortar in the sky
Another failed attempt at peaceful you and I
But we never can believe
What we read in magazines
That true love is just a feeling after all?
A war of roses we all fight
A fatal blow is heard across the bow tonight
If we only knew the truth
Is not what we hear on the news
Well can’t we all just get along?
We’re walking the longest mile to harmony
We go through the motions of our destiny
Is there room for you and me in Florentine?
You come at me with knife in hand
To assassinate my character again
But I feel we’ve all been took
By what we’ve learned in schoolhouse books
Can’t we all just get along?
We’re walking the world that’s lined with misery
We drown in the notion of our own deceit
Is there room for you and me in Florentine?
Can’t you hear the walls are fallin’?
The hills of Tuscany are callin’
We’re walking the longest mile to harmony
We go through the motions of our destiny
We’re never alone when on our own four feet
Is there room for you and me in Florentine?
Is there room for you and me in Florentine?
Is there room for you and me in Florentine?
Room in Florentine

Listen To You
03:22

I'm thinkin' I don't have the time for this
I need a sound bite just to get the gist
Give me a one-two shot it's all you got
You're taking too long baby
I'm gonna check my palm and find the room
I'm on a roll right now so call me soon
I got a 3 o'clock and then we'll talk
I'll give you twenty maybe
Well do you think that I'm just laying on the sand
With an icy beverage in my hand
With nothing else to do but listen to you?
Are the palm trees only in blowing in your mind
But the waves are crashing on my time
Am I on this earth simply to listen to you?
If you got something big to say to me
You better send it to my blackberry
I'm getting so much done, and I'm the one
You're taking too long baby
Just because I want the best for you
It doesn’t mean that I can pick and choose
I think your mom and I agree to try
Another green-card nanny
Do you think that I'm just laying on the sand
With an icy beverage in my hand
With nothing else to do but listen to you?
Are the palm trees only in blowing in your mind
But the waves are crashing on my time
Am I on this earth simply to listen to you?
Do you think that I'm just laying on the sand
With an icy beverage in my hand
With nothing else to do but listen to you?
Are the palm trees only in blowing in your mind

Far Away

Hey, far away, I would say
It’s a very bad day down here
Hey, by the way, maybe I
Haven’t what it takes
I always fly through the sky
In my mind just to be with you
It’s all I have, to see you
It’s all I have
Far Away, Far Away
Won’t you come, won’t you save
A frozen heart, don’t you dare
Fade away, Far Away
Why’d you leave me here
When you are so far away
What to compare, how to share
What I’m feeling since you are gone
Yes, I’m aware nothing’s fair
But I can’t let go
Never forget, won’t regret
All the memories I made with you
All I have, to keep you
It’s all I have
Far Away, Far Away
Won’t you come, won’t you save
A frozen heart, don’t you dare
Fade away, Far Away
Why’d you leave me here
When you are so far away

MIA
04:15

Look deep inside with your stethoscope is there a heart still tickin’
And while your there can you tell me if my brain’s in it’s place
Look in my ears cause I really hope there’s not an ocean turning
Behind these tears is a fortress that is crumbling away
MIA lost in outer space
While I’m floating through a cloud see the curtain coming down on me
MIA gone without a trace
Now I’m going to a town where my body can’t be found
Where only the big boys go
Look in my eyes cause I need to know the shades of light I’m seeing
I was so blind but you led me to a familiar face
Look in my soul can you really show the part of me that’s leaving
Floating away like a feather on a beautiful day
MIA lost in outer space
While I’m floating through a cloud see the curtain coming down on me
MIA gone without a trace
Now I’m going to the sky on a roller coaster ride
Where only the free can go
And I’m really gonna find all the answers in my mind
Like where did the big bang go
MIA lost in outer space
While I’m floating through a cloud see the curtain coming down on me
MIA gone without a trace
Cause I’m going to a town where my body won’t be found
MIA you have rescued me
From a bloody battlefield to a paradise that’s real with you
MIA you have known my name
From the moment I was born to the day I came ashore
You knew just where I would go
Cause I’m going to the sky on a roller coaster ride
Where only the free can go
Now I’m going to a town where my body can’t be found
Where only the big boys go
Look deep inside with your stethoscope is there a heart still tickin’

Somebody To Love Me
03:08

This is the way
That I can get along
This is the way
That I can carry on
Never again will I fret away
This is a face
Perfect for radio
This is the case
That I'm no Romeo
Because of your love or the lack thereof
I'm thinking today.
If I could find somebody to love me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If I could find somebody to need me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
This is the day
That I will make a change
This is the way
That I will rearrange
Wherever you are don't you wait for me
Is this a maze
Funny experiment
Is this a craze
Pairing the opposites?
Desperate times calling desperately
For losers like me
If I could find somebody to love me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If I could find somebody to need me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If there just won't be you and me
Just one more island in the sea I'd rather be
If I could find somebody to love me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If I could find somebody to need me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If I could find somebody to love me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright
If I could find somebody to need me
Would it be alright
Could it be alright,alright
If I could find you, if I could find you

Sorry
03:30

All the distance in the world between us
We live together all alone
If we close our eyes we can see what lies behind this cloud
Yesterday had it’s way
Sorry seems to be the only word for you and I to say
All the thunder crashing down upon us
Can fill an ocean with our waves
If we know our lines we can play the part tonight out loud
Yesterday come today
Take it back and we’ll have it made
Sorry seems to be the only word for you and I to say
If we close our eyes we can see what lies behind this cloud
Yesterday leave your name
All dressed up with a different face
Yesterday come today
Take it back and we’ll have it made
Yesterday had it’s way
Sorry seems to be the only word that you and I
Yeah you and I can say

Butterfly
04:27

As a fire starts with a flame and true love begins with a name
Hear it calling calling down to
Anyone out there with faith under skin you all look the same
Don’t go falling falling away
Butterfly deep inside
Come alive take shape in me
Butterfly dream tonight you are free
Fly far away
Over mountains over seas
Over broken yesterdays
As a snowflake lands on a face like a tear it rolls down in waste
All this searching, searching
Making angels out in the snow you were meant to be more did you know
Don’t be running running away
Butterfly deep inside
Come alive take shape in me
Butterfly wake tonight you are free
Fly far away
Over mountains over seas
Over broken yesterdays
So far away just like a dream that never ends
Butterflies deep inside
Come alive take shape in me
Butterflies safe tonight you are free
Fly far away
Over mountains over seas
Over broken yesterdays
Butterflies floating high
In the sky take shape and be
Butterflies live tonight you are free
Fly far away
Butterflies floating high
In the sky take shape and be
Butterflies live tonight you are free
Fly far away

East Of Eden
03:56

So defeated so unraveled in my cage
So deflated by the one that got away
Just like Joe Dimaggio picks you up and brings you home
Courting Marilyn keeps her name as Miss Monroe
Life throws a nasty curve I don’t want what I deserve
Nothing here is free
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden Far from Eden
So take a ride on the other side of pain
Verse two
So sedated so inundated in my day
So inflated by the words that people say
Just like young man Fabio blink an eye I’m growing old
Human house of cards cashing out while under par
Bogged down by the weight waiting to reciprocate
Nothing leaves with me
Chorus
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden far from Eden
So take a ride on the other side of pain
Bridge
So take a ride on the other side of rain
So take a ride on the other side of rain
I’m so elated by the one who rescued me
Chorus
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden far from Eden
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden far from Eden east of Eden
Chorus
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden far from Eden
Are you outside looking at the inside
Waiting for an upside falling for an upside down
The right side’s calling to the wrong side on your
Fall from Eden far from Eden east of Eden
East Of Eden

Think It Over
04:23
|

Maybe I should notice
Who stopped the war
Maybe I should care
Wrapped around your secrets
I stopped to find
Tethered to this life that’s not my own
Carry me, Bury me
I’m alright
Will you dig around till I
Can be found now
Cover me, Tell me that
I’m alright
When all is said and done
I’ll think it over
I’ll think it over
Weighted by your measure
I walk the line
Taken with this treasure…I will find
Carry me, Bury me
I’m alright
Will you dig around till I
Can be found now
Cover me, Tell me that
I’m alright
When all is said and done will you still
Carry me, Bury me
I’m alright
Will you dig around till I
Can be found now
Cover me, Tell me that
I’m alright
When all is said and done
I’ll think it over
I’ll think it over
I think I’m gonna find
What was left behind
I think we’ll work it out just fine
Maybe I should notice
Who stopped the war
Maybe I should care
Carry me, Bury me
I’m alright
Will you dig around till I
Can be found now
Cover me, Tell me that
I’m alright
When all is said and done will you still
Carry me, Bury me
I’m alright
Will you dig around till I
Can be found now
Cover me, Tell me that
I’m alright
When all is said and done
I’ll think it over
I’ll think it over
