Regret

Oh, he sat down to dinner with an empty chair
Said "Every day's filled with despair
'Cept those that do not end in y,
Oh, why did she leave me so permanently high and dry
I've been barely gettin' by
I drink alone in crowded bars
And don't know why."
I regret everything I've ever done before
Even though they weren't mistakes
Just plot twists meant to raise the stakes
None of it did a damn thing to prepare me for
The day that she would leave
The last day that I think I even smiled
Well, she drowned all her sorrows in her magazines
Said "Why don't those girls look like me
Oh, I can't eat and now I smoke myself to sleep
Well, my heart had been broke, but now its on the mend;
I think I'm giving up on men,
But when I think of him,
I stop and think again."
I regret everything I've ever done before
Even though they weren't mistakes
Just plot twists meant to raise the stakes
None of it did a damn thing to prepare me for
The day that she would leave
The last day that I think I even smiled

Blue Blue

I asked you, "When does it not hurt to fall?"
And I said, "When you fall in love."
And I said, "You're a liar because its not true."
I asked you, "Hey, kid, have you got a light?
I could use a cigarette tonight."
I asked you, "Why, how come? Are you feeling blue?"
If you only knew how blue blue can be
You'd know the blues run deeper than the sea
So, we fell and gosh, did it ever hurt
We questioned our sanity, questioned our worth
We kissed and cried and cooed like two cockatoo
Then the going got tougher and so did we
We bruised up our knuckles and skinned up our knees
We bitched and moaned when all we wanted was peace
I know how blue blue can be
Its deeper than the sea
When you're around, nothing feels quite the same
The world around me changes
I know how you feel, I can feel it, too
You make my heart black and blue
If you only knew how blue blue can be
(I know how blue blue can be)
You'd know the blues run deeper than the sea
(Its deeper than the sea)
How blue?

With You

I like honey in my tea and I like jam on my toast
I like fallin' asleep with you, but I like wakin' up most
Monday morning is just Sunday morning's ghost
I'm uncertain exactly what I'm supposed to do without you
I like my coffee black and I like butter on my bread
Its hard to move my legs when I'm so cozy in bed
And I appreciate the juxtaposition of your head upon my shoulder
I hope this feeling can sustain until I'm older than the oldest man
I spend hours doing things that I don't like to do to
Spend more minutes with you.
I waste time makin' problems that I'll never solve
With you, those problems dissolve.
La la, la la, la la la,
La la la, la la la la la laaaa
La la, la la, la la la,
La la la, la la la la la laaaa
I spend hours doing things that I don't like to do to
Spend more minutes with you.
I waste time makin' problems that I'll never solve
With you, those problems dissolve.

It Takes A Lot

La laaa la la la, la la
La laaa la la la, la la la, la la
Call me when the party's over,
I don't need socialization
What I need is all the booze that you've got
Fill a briefcase, fill a backpack
Fill 'em up and don't hold back, jack
Used to not to take much, now it takes a lot
It takes a lot
It takes a lot for me to feel good
Tell your sister, tell your best friend,
I can make them feel special
Even though, in all truth, they are not
Cuddles, kisses, and cheap dinners
There's no losers, only winners
All you need's a guy, a girl, and some shots
It takes a lot
It takes a lot for me to feel good
I don't know how to talk
Without a bottle in my fist
I don't know what to say
So I only wanna kiss
And a lot's a lot to ask for
When I'm asking you like this
Sorry if you're bothered by this
But I think that we should talk about
The way you share every single thought
Tell me, what's the situation
Could you define moderation?
I think you've said that every time that we've fought
It takes a lot
It takes a lot for me to feel good

I wanna walk with you side by side
In cardigans and Oxford shoes
We can hold hands, no one will care
We can hold hands, no one will stare
I wanna run with you far away
To a place as fresh as morning dew
Where the grass is so green and the skies are so blue
And the people aren't mean 'cause they got better things to do
Then crucify us 'cause we're so darn cute
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo,
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo
I wanna ride with you on our bikes
Because its what the cool kids do
We can ride fast, we can ride far
Make it up hill, if we pedal hard
I wanna jump with you from the rocks
Down into the briny blue
We'll intertwine like seaweeds and shells
Get tangled up, deep in the swells
And make a home down where the fishies dwell
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo,
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo
Do you think that these are things you'd like to do?
'Cause I don't wanna do them without you.
Do you think that we could be on the same page?
Do you think that you could think the same?
As if we shared a single brain?
And like me like you've gone insane
Like I've gone for you.
I wanna fall with you deep asleep
And dream the dream that dreamers do
It'll be nice to be snuggled up tight, yeah
It'll be nice to spend the whole night
In the arms of someone that I like
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo,
Doo doot, doot doot doot doot dooo
In cardigans and oxford shoes
I've never liked someone like I like you.
