1. Flowers Bathed in the Sunlight
Light travels across a solar system
Clouds drawing water from the earth Into the sky to rain back down
And as sun poured onto flowers next to me
I thought of all the distance that's been travelled
And how that alone must be enough reason
To just enjoy watching these flowers Being bathed
In sunlight.
2. New Love
Feels like I've been running
Then I've looked up
Seen what has passed me by
Had this dream one early morning
That you walked in when I walked out
Then I woke up
And see I've stood for rights
But lost most the same
Cause my heart just broke
In so many ways
And I fell right from the treetops
And you walked in when I walked out
Then I woke up
Of everything dear that I have done
Like damming rivers that leads to seas, I've
Got to trust that some new love
Will find its way back back to me
Back back, hey
Through most of my days
But I know slow and steady
I'm making change
Had this dream that there's one evening
When I call it and good god
It makes me smile
Before going on stage
And though, though my heart broke
In so many ways
And I don't have all the answers
But I know now I can be expressions of love
Of everything dear that I have done
As sure as rivers that lead to seas, I've
Got to trust that some new love
Will find its way back back to me
Back back, heyI'm making change
Of what was and who I was, I’m
I'm making space for new love
For new love to come
I'm making change
Of what was and who I was, I’m
I'm making space for new love
For new love to come
I'm making change
Of what was and who I was ,I am
I'm making space for new love
For new love to come
I'm making change
Of what was and who I was, I’m
I'm making space for new love
For new love to come, heyHey-oh
Hey-oh
Hey-ohI’m making space for new love
For new love to come
3. I'm With You
I remember when
I first saw your eyes
Working three doors down
From my favourite bookshop
In the world the coastline
When you wrote to me
You said that my body
It was made for yours, yours
And I’m just so grateful
That I got to know you
Here in this universe
Since then we have both been on the move
I, I’ve realised just how much I love you and
I, I'm ready now to give my heart to the sea again
We can live life like adventurers
I'm with you, I'm with you
Aren't you sick of being lonely just to make a little art?
Say yes! (yeah yeah)
Aren't you sick and tired of always choosing head over the heart?
Say I am! (I am)
Wouldn't it be fun to let go dance sing out under sun and the stars?
Say alright! (alright)
And even though we haven't got everything figured out quite yet
What's that saying again?
Is it practice makes perfect?
I, I’ve realised just how much I love you and
I, I'm ready now to give my heart to the sea again
We can live life like adventurers
I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you, I'm with you
Oh I'm with you
4. Feeling Blue
I'm not convinced in all the ways I've been living now
Feel like I'm at war with within myself
Sometimes I look within I see a deck of red flags
Smart enough to see but, but never to tell
Got body doubts and Hennessy
Mental breakdowns back in '17, ah
Everything I thought I knew
Got demiwolves to put on leash
Dropping Western bombs and call it peace
Everything I thought I knew
Been feeling, I've been feeling blue
Caught in the currents of the waves
I've been passing through
I'm not convinced in all the ways
That we're living now
Money’s made on debt of earth and rich and poor
Sometimes I look around like me, the world's gone mad
Sick from all the branding, the lack of soil
Got body doubts and heresy
Mental breakthroughs here in ‘23, oh yeah
Everything I thought I knew
Got demigods we choose to leave
World War III over identity, ah
Everything I thought we knew
Been feeling, I've been feeling blue
Caught in the currents of the wavesI've been passing through
Feeling, I've been feeling blue
Caught in the currents of the waves
I've been passing through
Mmm
5. Where Does The Love Go?
People talk about sex
Hardly talk about touch
Laying on the floor
With my hands on your stomach
In Perth where we have just
All this talk about changing
Always moving too fast
I’m always trying to be perfect
But never feel worth it
Do you know what I'm talkin’ about?
Where does the love go
When it's not us?
I needed it today more than ever before
Wonder, have you seen it around?
Tell me, where does the love go
When it's not me?
Thinkin' bout the times
When I knew in my heart
Unconditionally I could be free
Maybe we can be free
Hey, hey
For all my songs about peaceI seem to feel so much war
From everything I've seen
On the TV screen
I'm not sure on what we're fighting for
Found peace on the highway
And now I make changes in my heart
I stopped trying to be perfect
Started to feel worth it
Do you know what I'm talkin' about?
Where does the love go
When it's not us?
I needed it today more than ever before
I wonder, have you seen it around?
Tell me, where does the love go
When it's not me?
Been thinkin' bout the times
When I knew in my heart
Unconditionally I could be
Where does the love go
When it's not us?
I needed it today more than ever before
I wonder, have you seen it around?
Tell me, where does the love go
When it's not me?
Been thinkin' bout the times
When I knew in my heart
Unconditionally I could be free
Maybe we could be free
6. Learn Yourself
Waves are lapping up against the shoreline
A red old sailboat is parked in the front yard
I can’t help write these songs about the ocean
When life is showing me poetry in motion
And people are laughing aloud in the background You don't need to Change you’re right just where you are
And if you just see to learn yourself then you can go far
When the world is barely turning on an any axis
Fires burn out remember you are born of stars
You’re right just where you are
Tears are rolling down upon my cheeks while I
A turtle swims past we're living in a postcard
I can’t help write these songs about the ocean
When life is showing me poetry in motion
And people are laughing aloud in the background
You don't need to
Change you’re right just where you are
And if you just see to learn yourself then you can go far
When the world is barely turning on an any axis
Fires burnt out remember you are born of stars
You’re right just where you are
Sing it with me
I do belong I'm here I feel embodied babe
I do belong I'm here I feel embodied baby
I do belong I'm here I feel embodied baby
I do belong I'm here I feel embodied baby
Embodied baby
7. Responsibility if The Dreamer
When you set out in the pursuit of your dreams
You adopt the responsibility of the dreamer
And your role in this my friend is of utmost importance
Because people are rarely encouraged
To pursue a life worth dreaming for
Yet it is the pursuit of our dreams
And the previously unimagined
That keeps both hope
And the human spirit
Alight
8. Outlaw
Been trying to wear my shoes too small Been trying to lose weight
Been building my walls up high
Avoiding things that I’ve been needing to say I'm doing all the right things now
My reason's been wrong
Remembering a simpler time of heart and mind Of second chances on love
Love, love, love
If I could be an outlaw
And you can be someone on the run
If I could remain more unfazed
You could be something earned not won
If I could be an outlaw
And you can be something passing through If I could be more human
Could you be more human too?
I’ve started wearing shoes my size
Stopped trying to lose weight
Been building myself up strong
I'm saying things that I’ve been needing to say (baby) I'm doing most the right things now
My reasons are due
Remembering a simpler time of heart and mind Of feeling one and not two
Of two, oo, ooo
If I could be an outlaw
And you can be someone on the run
If I could remain more unfazed
You could be something earned not won If I could be an outlaw
You can be someone passing through
If I could be more human
Could you be more human too?
9. Addicted
Some days I would like to quit it
Shrug off all the weight of the world that's upon my shoulders
Sometimes I'd like to fit my life into 2 by 23 babe
And some days I would like to call out
All of the money made
Out of mining these dying stars and
I Sometimes would like to be 22 or 23 again
The more I've seen the less that I know
Quantum fields of loving lost in the times
I could be addicted to you
The more I've seen the less that I know
These quantum fields of loving
Been losing my mind So I could be addicted to you
Some days I would like to start it over
Resign from all the weight
That has brought me to my knees and I
Sometimes I’d like to fit my life into 3 by 32 babe
Some days I would like to fall for
Your body over falls from grace
These tired eyes in a mechanics workshop
And sometimes I'd like to be 32 or 33 again
Again
The more I've seen the less that I know
These quantum fields of loving lost in the times
I could be addicted to you
The more I've seen the less that I know
These quantum fields of loving
Losing my mind
So I can be addicted to you
The more I've seen the less that I know
These quantum fields of loving lost in the times
Where I could be addicted to you
The more I've seen the less that I know
These quantum fields of loving
Losing my mind
So I can be addicted to you
Breaking all the rules
So I can be addicted to you
Breaking all the rules
So I can be addicted to you
Breaking all the rules
So I can be addicted to you
10. Confessions
The lighthouse tower will guide me I know
But oh how these sirens have been singing me
These sweet stories of a, an ember change to the tones
I drew your freckles from thumbprints you left
Running your hands up and down my chest
This familiar creak of old wooden floors
Oh, oh
She's got me on my knees like it is
Sunday And I woke up at church
Except your head’s laid on my chest
And my confessions never hurt
And I can't be your bad boy love but I can burn
For these sweet amber curves
See I don't want what I can't have
I want something I can hold to
And it's okay to say there's things that darling
We got to work through let it all out
Left side of starboard true north out at sea
Moving through leeward wind
Dingoes howling in the cross-shore
Reminds me love that it’s you I adore
Tell me how I'm supposed to keep
From ripping the doors off this damn ship that I built
I was out at sea, afloat and overboard
Oh, oh
She's got me on my knees like it is Sunday
And I woke up at church
Except your head’s laid on my chest
And my confessions never hurt
And I can't be your bad boy love but I can burn
For these sweet amber curves
See I don't want what I can't have
I want something I can hold to
And it's okay to say there's things that darling
We got to work through
Because I don't want what I can't have
I want something I can hold to
But it's okay to say there's things that darling
We got to work through let it all out
11. Blessings
Tea went cold
There's books stacked to shelves
Pressed up to the couch
Where we slept that night
And we talked about how
Sometimes it feels like
We're falling apart
You asked me
Baby are you nervous
I said all the time
It ain't how we break bread
It's how we turn this water into wine
On all these summer storms
Can I try
And get your mother's blessings, baby
Can I do the right thing whatever that means
By me by you
Can I try
Be all your father’s best things, baby
Can I do the right thing
Whatever that means
By me by you
Can I try
And get your mother's blessing
Can I do the right thing
Whatever that means
By me by you
Can I try
Be all your father’s best things
Can I do the right thing
Whatever that means
By me by you
Can I try
And get your mother's blessing
Can I do the right thing
Whatever that means
By me by you
Can I try
And get your mother's blessings, baby
Can I do the right thing
Whatever that means
By me by you
12. Singing For Country
(any notes for me?)
(Nah, take it easy)
My hair is blonde but my blood runs ochre
Sunburn is an island ode to
Being on country again
Yeah yeah
My hair is blonde but my heart runs blue
Water boy born in a space suit
One evening in early July
I, I belong to you
You never belonged to me
If you be the land
I can be your seasons babe
I, I belong to you
You never belonged to me
Just a young fella and I’m singing for country
Kookaburra laughing, it’s my spirit bird
Song lines that I overheard
Being on country again|
Yeah, yeah
There's a water woman in a turtle garden
Eagle rays and bottle-nose dolphins
My heart aches with joy that we call this place home
I, I belong to you
You never belonged to me
If you be the land
I can be your seasons babe
I, I belong to you
You never belonged to me
Just a young fella and I’m singing for country
Mmhmm
