Sometimes my heart feels like a stranger in this place
Where the people around me hardly know my face
Where the wind moving by could shake me right outta my shoes
And the feeling in my bones is one I wanna lose
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
The place that I find myself is my place I gotta believe
When the way I have in front of me is the one I wanted to leave
But you can't tend a broken heart staring out your window
And there's only one place to start and it's where you are
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
I know that love is always worth giving, and
I know of many lives worth living
I know of many songs I'd like to sing before I die, and
I know a little something about the sunrise in the sky
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
Love is one more smile to make and one more tear to cry
Love is one more hand to hold and one more me to my
Love is one more laugh to hear and one more bite to eat
Love is one more someone to love and one more friend to meet
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
I don't care too much for promises
when life is spinning on an ocean.
And I don't care too much for sure things
when the earth is falling through the night sky.
And I don't count myself unlucky
if I find myself standing in the rain.
And I'd count myself lucky
if I could be a flower in my next life, for a day.
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?
What do I know about love?

Tree Song
02:54

I was walking
hearing the wind in my ear.
I was walking with no fear.
The wind was talking
moving through the leaves of a tree
and so a question occurred to me.
Where's that sound?
In the leaves or in the breeze or inside me?
Where's that sound I see?
Well could it be
there can't be the one without the three?
Could it be so free?
One day
everything is going to go away.
Could be tomorrow, could be today.
But maybe
it's not as simple as all that.
Maybe my life is more than me.
I'm outside.
I burn bright, I'm sunrise, I'm night.
I'm the wind inside the tree.
I'm cold water.
Ocean's daughter. I'm my father.
I'm your smile. I'm a child. I'm a grave.

Hands To Hold
04:28
|

What I know I cannot shake,
I cannot break
But I, I've got hands to hold
Yeah I do, yeah I do.
What I feel is not my own,
it rolls and flows.
Where, where in love will we go?
Take me there, take me there.
There's a world right here that we're in too.
If I wanna love me
I gotta start, start by loving me too
Yeah I do, yeah I do.
I'm not here alone, but they'll make us try
to forget that I
know you, like I know me, know my own.
Yeah I do, yeah I do.

By My Window

There's a cloud in the sky
slowly floating by my window.
I move my chair over so I
can keep watching the glow.
Overwhelmingly beautiful.
Overwhelmingly beautiful.
The notes from my guitar
and the melt and the move of the cloud
make me think of you.
Think of being in the midst of a life
and seeing you right there—
It is
overwhelmingly beautiful.
Overwhelmingly beautiful.
In the sky, there you are.
Catch the light, there you are.
Overwhelmingly beautiful.
Overwhelmingly.

Back In April
05:48
|

|
I got on the plane and I flew back home
I got on the taxi and I cried the whole way
I think I left my spirit out there
Where they call the wind by the same name
And ever since I've been back
I've been trying to feel that sad
I think my spirit's still catching up with me
I left to fast and now it's somewhere across the sea
I drank a bottle of wine while I did a jigsaw puzzle
Then I made myself cry, then I watered the plants
Probably happier than me,
Caught up in my memories
I'm back in April and I missed the rain
But I'm stuck inside anyways
Oh I wish a cloud or a storm would come
Something to hide away the sun
I'm walking the streets
like I've never seen the flowers before
And I saw Ryan
and we laughed and walked home from the store
I went running but I hurt my foot
So I walked for a while
There was this big maple tree budding
And it's flowers looked like little green waterfalls
The days fell by and summer came
And it started to feel like things just wouldn't be quite the same again
One day I heard the tune that we used to carry
Back in the classroom in February
The one with the birds on the trees
Singing sweet, sweet for the night
And I couldn't stop my heart from crying
I couldn't stop by tears from crying
I couldn't stop my heart and the tears
from falling down like rain
Fall rain, fall rain
Beautiful rain
Fall rain, fall rain
I'm down again
And I'm down 'til my soul comes back to rest again
When the sun says goodnight to the mountain
I am dreaming of the sun, say goodnight
And when the sun goes down all the birds in the trees
Are singing sweet for the night
When the rain starts to fall I listen
And I sing sweet songs for the rain
I listen to the sound of the rain as it falls
And I hear my soul coming back again

Song For Portia
04:15

Which path will you take while feeling that your life is yours to make?
I'd be unwise, if I said you won't have to try.
Which life will you find? Who will you love and how will you spend your time?
I'd be untrue, if I said I wasn't proud of you.
You'll be fine, you've got a heart that shines.
I love you, you'll always be a sister to me.
I hope you know my love is with you anywhere you go.
If you feel alone, just remember all my love is your own.
I hope you feel proud with a smile on your face.
Each word that you make is yours, that no one else can take.
You'll be fine, you've got a heart that shines.
I love you, you'll always be a sister to me.
You're stronger than all the boys and all the strongest men.
I can't pretend that you didn't pick me up now and then.
You're wiser too, your spirit has lived a life or two.
I know it's true, while you learned from me I learned more from you.
You'll be fine, you've got a heart that shines.
I love you, you'll always be a sister to me.
May you go on your way with love.
May you go on your way with love.
May you go on your way with love.
May you go on your way with love.

Untitled (Made To Be)

The of the faces, people I've known
Times and the places where I've called home
Slip away while life moves along
Slip away, memories fade and gone
I'll stand on through yes I'll stand on through
I will not lose no I will not lose
No I'll hold love all my life
No I'll hold love all my life
I'll carry true wherever I go
Made to be through the one's that I've known
Yeah I'll hold love all my life
Yeah I'll hold love all my life

Gone

Gone your lovin', wilin' eyes
Gone your sweetness in my life
Gone your lovin' when I'm down
Gone your pull my heart around
I'm ocean's wide, meadow
You've wings to fly, golden
Anything right, your love
Throughout my life, that's sure
Gone your hand upon my chest
Gone the way you knew me best
Gone your laughter through the air
Gone the good feeling you'd leave there
I'm ocean's wide, meadow
You've wings to fly, golden
Anything right, your love
Throughout my life, that's sure
That's sure
That's sure
That's sure
That's sure
Gone away, away from here
Gone away, too many years
Gone to stay, I don't know where
In my heart you stay there

Love Waits
04:46

What would I believe?
What would I care?
What would I care
if all my love fell through,
and I would turn to you—
sun on the leaves, rose in the air—
oh what would I find there?
Oh I... find there?
Send back all my love,
it's no good anymore.
Dead fruit on a tree.
I'm emptied out and down.
And where can a heart be found?
One with a smile, one that holds?
Oh don't grow cold.
Oh I've grown cold...
And all my love was true and alive too
and all your love was true and alive too
and all my love was true and through you
and all my love was true and alive too
Still one more step to take,
where do I go?
No need to know,
there's water flowing down,
And I could be a stream—
patient and clear.
Nothing is late
when you know love waits.
Oh I know love waits.
So what would I believe?
What would I care?
What would I care
if all my love fell through
and I would turn to you—
sun on the leaves, rose in the air.
Oh I know what I'd find there.
Oh I know love's there.
And all my love was true and alive too
and all your love was true and alive too
and all my love was true and through you
and all my love was true and alive too.
