lyrics
If you, you're fighting on some dream,
it's true you'll give up anything.
I cannot understand it, it's why I have to break the news to you.
'Cause I have resistance, and you've got long distance, well
we have nothing that we need.
We've got, we've got our dying love
It's not, it's not undying love
Isn't it a shame?
No one is to blame, well
We've got, we've got our dying love....
And you'll wake, wake up where you want to.
You'll say "thank god I followed you."
Find, find what you want to say
"Everyone's got to go!" And I'm for sure.
I have resistance, you've got long distance, well
I have all I'll ever need.
We've got, we've got our dying love
It's not, it's not undying love
Isn't it a shame?
No one is to blame, well
We've got, we've got our dying love....

More than a Friend
03:36

I'm gonna help you shine, no matter what it takes,
and you're gonna help me shine, oh no matter what it takes.
I've been waiting in the west end just about all night.
So if you meet me in the middle, we'll call that a compromise.
We're still dancing away,
you know me more than a friend,
you'll know what to say.
I think I'm needing you always,
you're the best friend of mine.
You're gunna take what's mine, if that's what you need.
I'm gunna take what's yours because, it's what I need.
And it's not easy to let go, but I can if you show me.
Sometimes a friendly soul can help you grow without even knowing.
We're still dancing away,
you know me more than a friend,
you'll know what to say.
More than, more than a friend.
You're more than, more than, more than a friend.
More than, more than a friend you are to me.
If I'm lonely, I remember what you made so very clear in my mind.
You said that you'll be less lonely if you take the time, to give back what you earned.
We're still dancing away,
you know me more than a friend,
you'll know what to say.
More than, more than a friend.
You're more than, more than, more than a friend.
More than, more than a friend you are to me.
The only thing I'm sure of is that I'm needing you always.

Let's walk, under the skyline bridge.
Speak up, I'm in denial when you tell me that you're skippin' off for good.
Your departure, unexpected affliction,
Baylee I would rather have it be me before you.
Getting harder to deal with by the second,
Your time is draining rapidly I put it off by thinking, "what's the best way to say goodbye?"
Wake me up before you're leaving
I hope this day in heaven finds you safe, you're far away-
I feel you fading now.
Every time I tried I came too late, you said you'd wait-
I feel you fading now.
I still leave you voicemail, write you letters with return to sender written on the back.
Desperate I even call your mother. I hate to hear her cry but she's not alone.
Her apathetic pseudo-smile shows.
Don't leave me, I almost knew you.
I hope this day in heaven finds you safe, you're far away-
I feel you fading now.
Every time I tried I came too late, you said you'd wait-
I feel you fading now.
Down the line it might not seem so bad, but
she was going to be a mom
I was finally ready to be a dad
Oh my heart used to be so ironclad.
I still set your place at the table, don't be mad.
Baylee, I'm in no shape to think about how I wasted all of my time thinking,
"what's the best way to say goodbye?"

I saw you out today, windswept, sun-soaked face,
you were running like a falling star!
I came right out to you, lit a matchstick, blew a fuse,
but you stared right through....
You said "You don't learn your lessons you make lies to bide your time!"
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
let's start with something new.
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
so let's start with the moon!
I came to you with hope, you stabbed right back with truth.
oh please tell me where I'm messing up?! 'cause these walls in front of me, they're unanswered insecurities, can I share them with you and get passed them?
I won't learn my lesson if we don't give it a shot,
so let's give it all we've got.
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
let's start with something new.
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
so let's start with the moon!
I won't learn my lesson if I do it all the same!
Nobody knows me like you do,
and there's nobody like you!
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
let's start with something new.
We're not quite ready to take on the world,
so let's start with the moon!
I saw you out today, a new look on your face,
now we're runnin', we're runnnin......

You make me feel like the most attractive man in the room.
You make me feel like what I'm working towards will pay off soon.
You make me feel the heat of sun and the cool of shade.
Not always safe, but always unafraid.
And I can't thank you enough for that.
I can't thank you enough for that.
Thank you enough for that.
Thank you enough…
'Cause you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me feel like I'm not the only one in the world.
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh
You stand up straight, while I, oh I tend to slouch.
You ripped my body straight from this lonely, velcro couch.
You make me feel the heat of sun and the cool of shade.
Not always safe, but always unafraid.
And I can't thank you enough for that.
I can't thank you enough for that.
Thank you enough for that.
Thank you enough…
'Cause you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me feel like I'm not the only one in the world.
You make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me feel like I'm not the only one in the….
ba-bum-ba-da-bum x8
Oh you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me,
you make me feel like I'm not the only one in the world.

Paint the scene
it's Monday night I want you next to me.
I'm thinkin' it would be just fine to clear my mind and leave the hard stuff up to you, but still
My eyes only see what they want to, reality taunts them
I know there's still something real inside.
(Woah-oh-oh)
I'm not as clever as you think I am
(Woah-oh-oh)
You're not the brilliant one I thought you were
We're not the perfect ones we're sure we are
But we're good enough for now.
Then it strikes,
as I romanticize I pay the price.
I know the feeling is what keeps me there
a vice I'll leave without any despair, and still
my eyes only see what they want to
reality makes a mess of them,
I know there's something real inside.
(Woah-oh-oh)
I'm not as clever as you think I am
(Woah-oh-oh)
You're not the brilliant one I thought you were
We're not the perfect ones we're sure we are
But we're good enough for now.
I'm good enough for now.
It just takes once to get it right.
I hold you now, in front of my eyes.
Only now, when I make this sound
I've learned to know that I'm good enough for now.
I'm good enough for now.

Colin Burke recommends:
Metaphorical Metal Fork
by Asleep At A Wake
There's a sort of fleeting honesty rivaled by none. Guitar tones that put you in tune with some thoughts that you tend to block out of your head most of the day, yet hold key importance.
