Once We Were Small

Once we were little
Hearts and minds were fickle
Once we were small
Fools in our laughter
Foolish minds can’t know that
Every rose has it’s thorns
Maybe knowledge is the reason
That we worry all the time
Or maybe it’s the seasons
And the rain that greys our minds
One thing could be certain, if childish hearts we find
Joy and peace of mind
Once we were little
Hearts and minds were fickle
Once we were small
Fools in our laughter
Foolish minds can’t know that
Every rose has it’s thorns
Maybe knowledge is the reason
That we worry all the time
Or maybe it’s the seasons
And the rain that greys our minds
One thing could be certain, if childish hearts we find
Joy and peace of mind
Once we were little
Once we were small
Minds and hearts were fickle
Now we’re tall
Now we’re tall

Call Of The Wild

Shivers swimming down your spine
Take another sip of the red wine
Calling out, you know it’s your time
Take your first steps, wilderness child
Live free, sheltered one
Give in to the creeper vines wrapped around your thumb
And it’s okay, the world it knows you’re not the only one
Again, you’ll never feel this young
Shivers swimming down your spine
Take another sip of the red wine
Calling out, you know it’s your time
Take your first steps, wilderness child
Hear it now
The call of the wild
Darling now
Go to the wild
Hear it now
The call of the wild
Darling now
Go to the wild

On Hold

I wanna give you space
And let you find your purpose
But I will need some faith
To get me to the surface
Cause oh it's so cold
Down in this lake
Will someone please hold me
Cause my bones shake
So keep me on hold
And out of your way
And i will be bold
I won’t be afraid
I wanna keep you safe
And walk beside your cavalcade
But is your heart the same
As the one I built to serenade
So keep me on hold
And out of your way
And i will be bold
Keep me on hold
And out of your way
I will be bold
I won’t be afraid

A Little Healing
03:42

Oh oh, will you tell me how you’re feeling?
Cause youuuu, are in need of a little healing
And yes i know that it’s not fair
In sun or moonlight i don’t care, I’ll be there
It hasn’t been long but you’re just like me
So maybe I’m better placed for empathy
Can’t go wrong with sonic therapy
So let it all out baby, in perfect harmony
Oh, Let your hair down on my shoulders
It’s been a while, The turning tides
I feel I’m getting older with you
Oh, is the sun a little golder
Since you fell inside, I can’t decide where your heart lies
But I hope that it’s with me
How long spent hiding in your own house
Trying to ignore a situation that you care about
It’s not my place or my story, But in your eyes I know i see
A soul that just wants to be free
It hasn’t been long but you’re just like me
So maybe I’m better placed for empathy
Can’t go wrong with sonic therapy
So let it all out baby, in perfect harmony
Oh, Let your hair down on my shoulders
It’s been a while, The turning tides
I feel I’m getting older with you
Oh, is the sun a little golder
Since you fell inside, I can’t describe this beam of light that I can’t hide
Oh, Let your hair down on my shoulders
It’s been a while, The turning tides
I feel I’m getting older with you
Oh, is the sun a little golder
Since you fell inside, I can’t decide where your heart lies
But I hope that it’s with me

Vitamin D
03:33

I wake up with the sun
The room is cold until the morning comes
It's the price I have to pay you see
For that early dose of vitamin D
And it's cruel
That I have to be your fool
So I'll just keep myself amused
I know you were my sun
But now you've gone it's like the clouds have come
I'll waste away, you'll see
If I don't get my vitamin D
And it’s cruel
That I have to be your fool
So I’ll just keep myself amused
I walk, I run, I sit and stop and think about my happiness
I walk, I run, I sit and stop and think about my happiness
I walk I run I sit and stop I think I might be happy on my own
Now I've grown
At peace with alone
I wake up with the sun
I clean my room and get my washing done
A step outside is the first to heal
For now i’ll find my own vitamin D

Wednesday night
Summer’s light
We’re here again
I drink with friends
But how do i end up always seeing you here
I can’t shake your image
It’s burned on my eyes like a bright light
A bright light
2AM
Phone’s been dead
But i know you keep your promises
Got me sold
These chips are getting cold
But i’ll wait for you
Turning the corner
You smile and it shines like a bright light
A bright light
And at night I saw you most / But you gave me your ghost
Rooftop to rooftop
We run
Don’t go when you stop
Having fun
At night i saw you most / But you gave me your ghost
Can’t pretend
That the night won’t inevitably end
What we’ve done, do i jump the gun
To say that we should be more than friends?
But the taxi pulls up and you turn to your phone
I guess i’ll take this one alone

Daughter
04:26

And she’s just a little girl
Blonde bob in pigtails and every care for the world
And she loves it when you hold her hand
And when you sit down beside her and explain all the things she doesn’t understand
She’ll listen
And she’ll thank you for your time
Your patience and your kindness
She’ll pass on down
To her own little ones, she’ll be their best friend too
And she’ll love them like you do
And she wakes up to the world
And suddenly her head is full of voices of other boys and girls
And maybe she’ll act like you’re not so cool
But she can’t help herself in spilling every detail of her day at school
Because you listen
And she’ll thank you for your time
Your patience and your kindness
She’ll pass on down
To her own little ones, she’ll be their best friend too
And she’ll love them like you do
I’ll always be your little girl
Though you’ve given me the tools to be a woman in this world
And I’ll still laugh at your bad jokes, and see faces in toast
I’m glad you’ve given that to me
So thankyou for your time
Your patience and your kindness
I’ll pass on down
To my own little ones, I’ll be their best friend too
And I’ll love them like you do
