This is for the girl in the blue dress
I can see that you are a mess
But I still love you best
And I don't know why
Maybe it's your gentle grace
You always seem a little out of place
You shy away and you keep your space
But you can I fly
But I want you to know
And I hope that you can see
And I need you to realize that you belong with me
You've been hurt so many times
You always lie and say that you're alright
But you still show off your light
You shine for me

Come Back

Why can't you come back?
We all miss you so
You fell apart, you were broken
Pick yourself up off the floor
Your mind has betrayed you
But your heart's still intact
Like a road, you'll lead me home
Why can't you just come back?
Come back, come back
I'm not the same without you
You've burned bridges, you've hurt loved ones
I could never live without you
Come back, come back
There will never be a day
That I don't wonder how they treat you
And hope that you're okay
Since the day I was born
You've been looking out for me
But now you're hurt
And I'm restless
Can't we live in harmony?
The world works against you
But I'll be by your side
The path is getting brighter
In me you can confide

Blue Eyes

My head was far far up in the clouds
You were the one thing
Bringing me back down
I think I cried when I told you I cared
About the world that we loved
And the hope that we shared
I was never there
Until I knew you cared
Please forgive the state that I've been
It felt like we were nearly kin
I thought you were god at least for a while
Maybe an angel hid in your smile
You made me feel safe and secure in the hall
With blue eyes so bright, I could not fall

Let Me Know

Just around this time last year
We went walking in the snow
Doing laps around the green
Until you let me go
The laughs still came easy
As they had the month before
In the kitchen, at the party
We headed for the door
Even though we just met
You were like a long lost friend
Painting pictures of a world
It seemed you wanted me in
The streetlights they flickered
Shadows dancing in the snow
We locked eyes and lingered
Until you let me go
Your silhouette faded
In the darkness of the hill
I walked back home
Loving you still
See you around
Is a painful goodbye
When you know
That the flame
Has died
It's November again
And here we are
On the bridge to New York
Driving your car
Our stop is a fort
By the waterside
A good place to walk
And unpack our lives
I'm showing you fossils
Imprinted on the reef
Stories resurfaced
Once submerged deep
I want to tell you
Before we go
If you love me
Let me know

I Know You Know

I don't wanna go to class
I want to explore my ass
I'm gonna throw all my clothes outside
Except my dresses and my really big hat
Daddy whatcha think about that?
I'm gonna paint my nails
I'm gonna grow a tail
Don't have time to wear a frown
Picking my boots up off the ground
I'm not going back to Belchertown
Mama I'm not sick
I want to be a chick
Love you so but I gotta go
No more shame gonna hit the road
I love you so and I know you know
