Close To The Sun

You're flying close to the sun,
You put me in a bag with everyone.
I just wanted to sing songs,
Turns out you're singin them with everyone.
I know you're scared, shit I'm scared, but maybe I'll be here when
you get back, with my gold tooth and Little Black.
You're knocking on Heavens door again, because you know your
devil, she's behind there.
Stay. Baby.
I'll try not to run away, but I wanna hear you say that you'll be here
when I get back.
With your flowers and your Cadillac.
Because sometimes I fly close to the sun

Calling Out Your Name
02:32
|

|
Ya I know, I've heard it all before.
The best way to get over you is take another on the floor.
So I did, and I shouted out your name. Ya that's right, I shouted out
your name.
Oh man, I'll never be the cool girl, I'll always seem insane. I was the
weirdest one in school, ya, and I'm calling out your name.
Oh oh, I'm calling out your name.
Ya I know, I've heard it all before. Pull up your socks, Kate, and
kick him to the curb.
So I did, and I shouted out his name. So many ways to shout out a
name.
Oh man I'll never be the cool girl, I'll always seem insane.
Always the last one in the pool, ya,
and I'm calling out your name.
Woah, calling out your name

Feral Child

Even as a feral child no one could hold her, she lived out in the wild,
till she got older. But the wild couldn't hold her.
Now no one could hold her.
It was hard to be bound for glory,
After what he'd told her.
So she gave it up for free when she heard he'd sold her.
Now no one would hold her.
Sha na na na, Sha na na na, oh.
Sha na na na, no one will hold her.
I need you to write me a happy ending, because I don't know how
to.
It's hard to be bound for glory with no one to hold on to. Now no
one would hold her.
Sha na na na, Sha na na na, oh.
Sha na na na, no one would hold her.

There's something in your song, it's been running through my head
all night long.
It's the one that starts out strong. Makes you wanna sing along,
ooohhhhhh. It's got you laying down your arms, ohhhh, im already
gone.
There's something in your song, it's been running through my head
all night long.
Then the chorus comes along, ooooh, you still want to sing along,
oooooooh, it's got you dancing all night long, ohhhh, but im already
gone.
But if you're feeling strong, I've got the courage to change the song,
but you flipped the record, oohhhh.
There's something in your song, it's been running through my head
all night long.
But then it starts to fade. Cause there's another on the way.
Oooooh. Auxiliary woman, oohhhhhh, I'm already gone.
But if you're feeling strong, I've got the courage to change the song,
but you flipped the record.

Desert Valley Nights
03:53
|

|
I'll keep my eyes on the road even though I don't know where to go.
I'll keep my eyes on the road through the ice and snow, riding it in
low.
Horizon eyes on the road, her lies died in the road, some she'd never
told. She let her hair down on the shoulder and it was cold. She
didn't even know.
It's taking its time, this wine, but I'm settling in. The music's in time
with the street and it's snowing. I can hear you in the corner of my
eye and it sounded good. It wouldn't stop crossing my mind but I
understood. It's a desert valley night so I'm riding in the shadows.
It's a desert valley night fading like all those tomorrows. It's a desert
valley night, it's a desert valley night.
I'll keep my eyes on the road, keep between the lines, riding it in
time. I'll keep my eyes on the road through the ice and snow, riding
it in low.
It's taking its time, this wine, but I'm settling in. The music's in time
with the street and it's snowing. I can hear you in the corner of my
eye and it sounded good. It wouldn't stop crossing my mind but I
understood.
It's a desert valley night so I'm riding in the shadows, a desert valley
night fading like all those tomorrows. It's a desert valley night, it's a
desert valley night

Meteor Shower
03:32
|

|
I was walking with a friend just the other day. We turned into a cafe.
Well you know the rest, you know what they say, when from across
the room he gets in your way.
And there's a meteor shower, there's a meteor shower, there's a
meteor shower that's coming your way.
I'll worry about who's gonna keep me warm, oh you know, way after
the storm. So for now I'm gonna have a time, in the Gatineau
sunshine.
And watch the meteor shower, there's meteor shower, theres a
meteor shower, there's a meteor shower that's coming my way.
You may as well be from the moon, even though each afternoon I
see you there.
I tune out the room, there is only you, but you're not there.
There's a meteor shower, there's a meteor shower, there's a meteor
shower that's coming your way.

Golden Moon
03:36
|

|
We seem at ease in my living room. My silver steed, I'm your
golden moon. Now I write every single song about you.
There are things I can't forget like Old Spice and cigarettes.
There are things I should regret, what can I say, I learned from the
best. We all know I make mistakes. I can turn puddles into lakes.
There's one thing I can't deny about you.
We seem at ease in my living room. My silver steed, I'm your
golden moon. Now I write every thingle tune about you.
I know when you lie to me, I let you think that I believe.
All the messages I send, it's because you're my best friend. I know if
you double cross me, it's because I double crossed you. And I
double cross my heart, I'll do it again. I'll do it again.
But we feel at ease in my living room. My silver steed, I'm your
golden moon. Now I write every single song about you.
I know every part of you, and I pretend you know me too. I came
close in Ottawa, running barefoot to the car. I got in you ran your
fingers through my hand. For a hot minute I had my dream man. I
never heard from him again so I pretend. I pretend.
That we feel at ease in my living room. My silver steed, I'm your
golden moon. Now I write every single song about you

Katie Cruel
01:28

When I first came to town they called me the roving jewel, now
they've changed their tune, they call me Katie Cruel.
Through the woods I'm going, through the boggy mire, straight way
down the road till I come to my hearts desire.
If I was where I would be, then I'd be where I am not, here I am
where I must be, where I could be I am not.
When I first came to town, they brought me drinks a plenty, now
they've changed their tune and they bring me their bottles empty.
If I was where I would be, then I'd be where I am not, here I am
where I must be, where I could be I am not.
When I first came to town they called me the roving jewel, now
they've changed their tune, they call me Katie Cruel.
