keeper

It all makes sense
Seeing you again
Like transit was the only routine that fits
In here when my bag was all zipped up
And what will we do
When what we’ve done the most
Is seen each other between coast to coast
Weekends away
Romantic as hell
 
Can you bring me around
When I’m feeling under
When I’m lost not found
Can we make dependence sweeter
Than all the distance we’ve covered
Trying to keep from harm
You’re a keeper
Holding my highest regards

I wonder if trees
Feel concrete or the sun
When does rain become the river that runs
Can we stop trying to fit these shoes
Not made for our feet
Or where we belong
In love with the city and the sea what’s wrong
With loving it all the ways I love you
 
Can you bring me around
When I’m feeling under
When I’m lost not found
Can we make dependence sweeter
Than all the distance we’ve covered
Trying to keep from harm

You’re a keeper
Holding my highest regards
You’re a keeper
Holding my highest regards
You’re a keeper
Holding my highest regards

together

I wonder why
We seem to be
More concerned with our flags
And nationalities
Oh then we are
With unity or love
More concerned with our differences
In different gods above
And out of all these books that I forgot
Drawn way too harsh in worries of what I’m not
And how this feels when it comes to
Comes to being close to you

I will fight for this
Stand for right over wrong as
Our old trees are burning down
I will write for this country I adore
We can come together now
I will stand beside you won’t let hate reside here
Lock hands together in the crowd
We will fight for this country we adore
In hard times each of us know how
Throw fear aside regrowth can come along

And I wonder why
We seem to be
More concerned with selling water to private companies
Oh then we are
With the health of
The rivers where we're drinking from
The land that's free and young 
And out of all that you are trying to stop
Free speech and thought protests
Against poor plots
Is how this feels when it comes to
That you are me and I am you

I will fight for this
Stand for right over wrong as
Our old trees are burning down
I will write for this country I adore
And we can come together now
I will stand beside you won’t let hate reside here
Lock hands together in the crowd
We will fight for this country we adore
In hard times each of us know how
Throw fear aside regrowth can come along

I know where we belong
I know where, I
I know where we belong
I know where, I
I know where we belong
I know where, we belong together
I know where we belong
I know where, we belong together
I know where we belong
I know where, we belong together
I know where we belong
I know where, we belong together
I know where we belong
I know where, we belong together
I know where we belong
I know where
 
I will fight for this
Stand for right over wrong as
Our old trees are burning down
I will write for this country I adore
And we can come together now
I will stand beside you won’t let hate reside here
Lock hands together in the crowd
We will fight for this country we adore
In hard times each of us know how
 
Throw fear aside regrowth can come along
Throw fear aside regrowth can come along
Throw fear aside regrowth can come along

don't get caught up

It’s a slow burn
When we’re trying to do right by the rest of the world
And now they sell immunity too
In pills and pearls and tax
All our freedoms subdued
Can you believe that we are here still arguing
About the right to choose what we put in our bodies
But you see it’s so easy to do
When bill sells it like its facts
But in fact, it isn't true

Don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us
So don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s been making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us

What if they
Called for war
Nobody came and everybody broke the law
It wouldn't be so easy to do
But the law ain’t always right
That's what we learnt in WW2

Can you believe that we are here still arguing
When we should trust each other
More than we trust our screens
But you see it’s so easy to do
When the news says its facts
But in fact, it isn't true

Don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us
So don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s been making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us

Can you tell me
What’s the cost
For faster connection 
What’s exactly the rush?
If it’s safe it’s easy to prove
Just get tests done by someone else
And show us the truth
The truth it isn't easy
The truth it has a cost
The truth is being censored
The truth is I implore, that for me
It’s not easy to do
When I have nothing to win
And have everything to lose
 
Don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us
So don't get caught up
Letting the news tear each other apart
Fear’s been making money but doing nothing for us
Nothing for us
Nothing for us

Oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh

letting go

We cut through glaciers to coastlines
By the afternoon
And rivers cut through the gorge and
The waters clean and the waters smooth
See I've been trying to move along, move along
Consumed in keeping strong for far too long
When all I had to do was rest my head
And rest my heart
You don't have to feel like this, no

I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
And it doesn't feel right anymore

And I came back to rest
And work along this canvas line
We can sleep to work at better rest at night
With less upon my mind
See I've been trying to move along, move along
Consumed in keeping strong for far too long
When all I had to do was rest my head
And rest my heart
And you don't have to feel like this, no

I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
And I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
And it doesn't feel right anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore

I don’t want to do this
On my own, on my own, love
You don’t want to do this
On your own, on your own, love
We don’t want to do this
On our own, on our own, love
We don’t have to do this
On our own, on our own

I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
And I'm letting go
See I've been trying
To hold on, hold onto this fear all alone
And it doesn't feel right anymore

Hmmm, no
Hmmm, hmmm

heartbeat

Sun
It pours on our skin
We're young and salt
Sticks to our clothes
Low tide nicking fins
Calling each other out
I asked, who am I, I am all yours
Spent time searching for all that comes
Not in comfort but loving you

‘Cause I’ve seen all the pretty girls and I like to believe
That you are different
You’re in a different league

Still gonna miss your heartbeat
Laying next me
And when this morning came
I didn't want you to go
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
I have to let you know
I can't wait for you to come back to be
Together wherever we go
 
Go, go, go

Stars
They pour on our skin
We have high hopes
We yelling to the eve
Warm throats kicking and singing
Until our legs and our voice gives out (hey!)
Daze
Moments to remember recall
I was sitting by myself
I found pace in numbering afternoons until I was meeting you

‘Cause I've seen all the pretty girls and I like to believe
That you are different
You’re in a different league
 
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
Laying next me
‘Cause when this morning came
I didn't want you to go
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
I have to let you know
I can't wait for you to come back to be
Together wherever we go
(I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat)
Ooh, oooh, mmmm
 
When it feels like love, it doesn't hold me down
When it feels like love, I'm without a doubt
 
When it feels like love
When it feels like love, when it feels like
When it feels like love, when it feels like
 
When it feels like love
When it feels like love, when it feels like
When it feels like
 
When it feels like love, it doesn't hold me down
When it feels like love, when it feels like
When it feels like love, when it feels like
 
When it feels like love, I'm without a doubt
When it feels like love, when it feels like
When it feels like, when it feels like
 
When it feels like love, it doesn't hold me down
When it feels like love, when it feels like
When it feels like love, when it feels like
 
When it feels like love, I'm without a doubt
When it feels like love, when it feels like,
When it feels like, when it feels like
When it feels like

I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
Laying next me
‘Cause when this morning came
I didn't want you to go, go
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
I have to let you know
I can't wait for you to come back to be
Together wherever we go
 
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
I'm still gonna miss your heartbeat
Ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh

When it feels like love
When it feels like love, when it feels like,
When it feels like love, when it feels like,
When it feels like love, when it feels like, when it feels like

chocolate

She kissed me
Like we just met
And all she knew about me
Is what I've said to her
Here in the bathtub this evening
Chocolate for two
 
I need more time off with you
To turn you on
I want to wake up without the alarm
A thousand eyes on me constantly
But I just want you
And I just want two
I need more time off with you
To turn you on
 
She kissed me
Like we just met
Via wind, sand and stars
We danced at the northern
And slept on the beach hoping rangers
Would choose not to come
 
I need more time off with you
To turn you on
And I want to wake up without the alarm
A thousand eyes on me constantly
But I just want you
I just want two
I need more time off with you
To turn you on
 
I didn’t sleep a single wink
and I caught you realise
I promised you it’s not your fault and I tried
It feels like there’s fire on my heels
Wherever I go
 
I wake up in the morning
Laying sleeping next to you
I asked you if I snored
You laughed and I knew, I knew
This isn’t how I planned to feel
When I’m supposed to go
To go 

I need more time off with you
To turn you on
And I want to wake up without the alarm
A thousand eyes on me constantly
But I just want you
And I just want two
‘Cause I need more time off with you
To turn you on
Oh on, on

holding you

It’s been 2 months
And the phone reception has been broken up most of the time
Had a friend stay over last night did nothing wrong
But the company it felt right
We shared moments
And we had conversations about
About our place here
In the constellations
And I watched
The way that the sun lit her blue eyes

It’s got nothing on holding you 
Nothing on being here tonight
Nothing on holding you
Nothing on doing what feels right
There’s second thoughts
On the tip of my tongue
Trying my best
To not let them overrun
What is holding you
Wanna know if this is a fire
And if it ever burns out

I know I need to learn how to change the patterns
And observe the weather come good here
Whether it’s for worse or better
I've seen love
That isn't cupid that isn't blind
I need a partner in good
And not a partner in crime
I've read poetry and I've wrote it
Been prepared
And I have been devoted
I've been through every fucking reason that it wouldn't work
The reasons that I could get hurt

It’s got nothing on holding you 
Nothing on being here tonight
Nothing on holding you
Nothing on doing what feels right
There’s second thoughts
On the tip of my tongue
Been trying my best
To not let them overrun
What is holding you
Wanna know if this is a fire
And if it ever burns out

chemistry

Isn't it just nice
To be alone with you babe
Seein' forests for the trees
Meaning everything that you say
And isn't it just sweet
How we don't have to talk
How your eyes are saying everything
When you've said nothing at all
 
‘Cause you've got me feeling like
Everywhere I've been doesn't prepare
Means nothing at all
And you got me feeling like
Everywhere I've been doesn't compare
Means nothing at all
 
In all of your chemistry
What I adore
Is you sitting next to me
And I don't think that
Any of this was meant to be
And I love that more
In all of our chemistry
And I don't think that
 
And isn't it just nice
To be alone with you babe
Seeing weather in this eve
believing where there's will there's a way
And isn't it just sweet
How scars they say it all
All the ways that we've been healing we're feeling
Better than ever before
 
‘Cause you got me feeling like
Everywhere I've been doesn't prepare
Means nothing at all
‘Cause you've got me feeling like
Everywhere I've been doesn't compare
Means nothing at all
 
In all of your chemistry
What I adore
Is you sitting next to me
And I don't think that
Any of this was meant to be
And I love that more
In all of our chemistry
And I don't think that
 
Sun kissed darling
I land and I'm still falling
And I brace myself it doesn't help
You're a sun kissed darling
And I land and I'm still falling
And I brace myself it doesn't help

With you
With you
With you
With you
With you
With you
With you 

I don’t think that

And I don’t think that

getting low

Nothing makes me feel at home like being under the stars
A hike mat in your tent or a bed in the back of your car
Nothing makes me feel at home like good company
Waking up with wet hair
Entangled in somebody

Good things take time
Longer then you might hope
Like the old clothes that we repair
Not everything here
Has to be outworn

Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I am always homesick but everywhere’s home
Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I am always lonely but never alone
Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I wanna be in love
But don’t know where to go
Tryin’ to keep from
Getting low
Getting low
Getting low
Tryin’ to keep from
Getting low
Getting low
Getting low

Nothing makes me feel alone
Not being where you are
Driftin’ somewhere in the currents
Asleep between near and far
Nothing makes me feel alone
Like when I can’t see
The difference in being with someone
And being with somebody

Good things take time
Longer then you might hope
Like the good clothes
That are made fair 
Not everything here
Has to be outworn

Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I am always homesick but everywhere’s home
Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I am always lonely but never alone
Maybe it’s just me but it feels like
I wanna be in love
But don’t know where to go
Tryin’ to keep from
Getting low
Getting low
Getting low
Tryin’ to keep from
Getting low
Getting low
Getting low

I will always strive
To never give up hope
I am better than this fear
I am stronger than I know
I will always strive
To never give up hope
I am better than this fear
I am stronger than I know
I will always strive
To never give up hope
I am better than this fear
I am stronger than I know
I will always strive
To never give up hope
I am better than this fear
I am stronger than I know

circus

You shouldn’t put a lion in a cage
On a cart, on a train to go travel so far
And everyone knows better yet it’s something we pay to see    
He’s strong and wild
In all the ways that you’d like to be

And everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
Mmmhmmm
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it’s what I know best how to do
Mmmhmmm
And everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it is if it leads me to you
 
You shouldn’t put an elephant in chains for so long
He remembers everything but not where he went wrong
And everyone knows better yet it’s something that we still do
He’s kind despite the places
That you're paying to bring him to

And everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
Mmmhmmm
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it’s what I know best how to do
Mmmhmmm
Everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it is if it leads me to you

Then you came
You didn’t need glass slippers for your feet
Just something for after the showers
To keep ‘em clean, and you're like me
You didn’t like lions and elephants for admission fees
We didn't talk about it but the day would come we would set them

Then you came
Sat on my lap held a blade against my throat
You could cut me I didn’t mind to bleed at all
And you're like me
You didn’t like the lions and elephants for admission fees
We didn't talk about it but the day would come we would set them free

Everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
Mmmhmmm
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it’s what I know best how to do
Mmmhmmm
And everybody loves a circus
But nobody knows it as well as I do
You ask me if it’s worth it
I say that it is if it leads me to you
 
Mmmmmmhhhhmmm
Mmmmmmhhhhmmm

feeling you

Lights out the bikes stayed out all night
Embers flicker under the door
And there’s dogs out on the streets
Chasing satellites
It’s strange how we try keep them indoors

I know the world is spinning faster than I expected
And I’ve been trying to do my best
To get around it
Hmm

Feeling you
Feeling you
Feeling you
Feeling you

The salt lamp has stayed on every night since
Water flooded over the floor
And there is a space between us
A universe it’s full of light and
It’s something that we tend to ignore

And I know that we can have almost everything that’s out there
And it doesn’t make a difference
On how this feels within dear
Hmm

Feeling you
Feeling oh oh oh oh
Feeling you
Feeling oh oh

searching for freedom

Flowers don’t grow
In vases or jars
And neither does she
In traffic or cars
With debts to be paid that she owes to herself
With interest for trade ins
In good states of health
 
Of places to grow
Moments to heal
Of everything everyone’s
Expecting from me
Searching for freedom
Slowing down time

There's more that I feel
Deep in my bones
Hidden in me there's reasons I know
I've been searching for freedom
Searching for mine
There's more that I feel
Deep in my bones
Hidden beneath these reasons for being
Searching for freedom
Searching for mine

He stopped asking change in the past
Moving forward asked for change in perspective
And learnt a lot more
And felt his hand raised between his eyes and the sun
The warmth flooding in saw the importance of

Moments to grow
Of places to heal
Of everything I have been expecting from me
I'm searching for freedom
Slowing down time

There's more that I feel
Deep in my bones
Hidden in me there's reasons I know
I've been searching for freedom
Searching for mine
There's more that I feel
Deep in my bones
Hidden beneath these reasons for being
I’m searching for freedom
Searching for mine

Searching for freedom
In transit to home
Searching for freedom
Traverse the unknown
Searching for freedom
Truth in that feeling
Truth in that meaning
Searching for searching for
Searching for freedom

Searching for freedom
Searching for freedom
Truth in that feeling
Truth in that meaning
Searching for searching for
Searching for freedom
