Same Side of the Bed
04:05
|

Everything has changed, everyone has gone
Now I’m looking east over the Maribyrnong
Guess I’ll never know which way the river will bend
I still sleep on the same side of the bed
Sang a different tune and the sky was sharp
Never thought I'd be the one afraid of the dark
The later the night the more restless I get
Honey, I still sleep on the same side of the bed
New buildings taking guard
I heard you had a change of heart
Rising with the sun I rode the river to work
Living on your own has a couple of perks
But everywhere I go the stranger it gets
Memories like clouds hanging overhead
I still sleep on the same side of the bed
I still sleep on the same side of the bed
Do you still sleep on the same side of the bed?
Do you still sleep on the same side of the bed?

Maybe I'm Not Ready
03:26
|

See the city tonight looking so new
The lights flicker in time on the top of the roofs
And I’m like the bird just waiting to fly
But I’m too afraid to leave, too afraid to try
Maybe I’m not ready
Maybe I’m not ready
Well it came my turn to mix with the best
I danced like a clown, ignored the pain in my chest
And I met someone as pretty as the sky
But I think I’m afraid and I think she knows why
Maybe I’m not ready
Maybe I’m not ready
So how will I know if the timing is right
And If I stay the same maybe I’ll be alright
I heard a song while driving my car
About how life moves on but you don’t travel far

Let's Go Walking
02:35
|
|||
Let’s go walking through the park
Keep your distance stay on the path
Don’t get too close, don't go too fast
Just keep walking
Maybe time was a gift
Felt the universe somewhat shift
Up ahead through the myst
Let’s go walking
Let’s go walking...
Let’s keep walking, we can talk
About the future about it all
But here it is we’re at the fork
Let’s go walking
You go left, I’ll go right
Rest your weary head tonight
I’ll be here, we’ll be alright
Just keep walking
Let’s go walking through the park
Keep your distance stay on the path
Don’t get too close, don't go too fast
Let's go walking

Bigger Things
02:56
|
|||
I don’t care about the rain
There’s bigger things to try explain
History repeating 'round again
Everybody thinks this is the end
Felt the shift, a great divide
Leaves are blowing from left to right
Who’s to say who’s better or worse
What is happening to my universe?
Bigger things
Bigger things
I don’t care about the noise
There’s bigger guns there’s bigger toys
We’re only taught what we’re told
We only buy what we’re sold
We think we’re smart we think we’re clever
But I met God and he’s madder than ever
Like a pendulum, back in forth
We’re in the hands of a bigger force
Bigger things
Bigger things

In June
05:02
|

Candles all around us
lighting up the room
We’ve got the stereo spinning
‘Sundown’ to ‘Harvest Moon’
Holding each other
holding your stare
Hiding under covers, like there is no other
As if tomorrow isn’t there
I could tell you a little story
Maybe pick out a little tune?
Or keep the stereo spinning
‘Dark Side of the Moon’
The stars shine so bright in June
The stars shine so bright in June
There’s no need for screens
The sky’s our colour tv
“You will be my music”
And my make believe
The stars shine so bright in June
The stars shine so bright in June
Candles fade to darkness
Let’s finish of the wine
Let the stereo keep playing
‘Closing Time’
The stars shine so bright in June
The stars shine so bright in June

Perfect like the breeze
Break just like the clouds
Something of a dream
With a heart that weighs you down
Laughter is the sky
I wanna climb inside your mind
It’s different now you’re gone
Nobody did anything wrong
Patient as a river
Steady as a stream
The detail in your eye
Shows me what it means
With the wind behind our back
Following its lead
We faded like a song
Nobody did anything wrong
It’s different now you’re gone
Nobody did anything wrong

Common Ground
03:46
|
|||
A Change of heart
Change of mind
Time does funny things
Let’s you redefine
Search your soul
Catch a different light
Cover all the colours
In your world of black and white
Echoes of your voice
In an empty room
Time by yourself
Midnight in bloom
Keep on falling down
Find a place for common ground
Time to heal
Is a chance to talk
Shutout all the voices
Gather all your thoughts
Admit your wrongs
Takes a little pride
I think life’s a movie
On repeat, on rewind
Keep on falling down
Find a place for common ground
Keep on falling down
Find a place for common ground

Take the Ride
03:55
|
|||
Waiting in line at the club on a Saturday night
The confidence I lack, feel the wind behind my back
Dancing ain’t my thing, I’m gonna lean into the wind now
I wanna see the whole night through, I want to be closer to you
I’ll admit time slows down when I’m feeling this afraid
Rode this merry go round for far too long these days
But a good thing’s so hard to find
I’m swept up by the night
I bought the ticket so I’ll take the ride
Heard a voice inside my head saying I should turn around
But she’s holding your hand and standing her ground
The song begins to play, I’m feeling old and outta place
Forgot my dancing shoes, you got me so easily swayed
A good thing’s so hard to find
I’m swept up by the night
I bought the ticket so I’ll take the ride
Capture this in a photo booth
A little bit of magic, a moment of youth
Capture this in a photo booth
A little bit of magic, a moment of truth
Put it in my wallet and take you home
A good thing’s so hard to find
I’m captured by the night
A real thing’s so rare to find
I’m swept up by the night
I bought a ticket so I’ll take the ride

11th Hour
03:18
|
|||
You’re a live wire
A flickering light
You’re the bright idea
In the middle of the night
You’re breaking news
A Roman candle
Rest easy now
I’ll be the midnight rain
You’ll be the morning flower
Hold my hand in your 11th hour
You’re breaking ground
You’re switching gears
You paint every colour
you wear a thousand fears
Hot off the press
Too hot to handle
Rest easy now
I’ll be the midnight rain
You’ll be the morning flower
Holding my hand in your 11th hour

Old House
03:40
|
|||
Scattered leaves fallen in the winter
Broken branches asleep on the ground
Lonely swing hanging from the oak tree
Far away from the rush of city sounds
Veranda wraps itself around her
Like a mother to a child
With a garden painted like a rainbow
I’m taken in like you don’t know how
Come closer to the fire
Step inside this old house
Footsteps echo down the hallway
Cracks hang like pictures on a wall
Birds tiptoe along the rooftop
All who enter call her home
Come closer to the fire
Stay inside the old house
Midnight rain plays like music
