A lil' While Longer

i see you
there in the corner
your eye's, like starlight
they burn so bright

when you
come near me
you turn my whole world
down on it's knees

the sunlight
shines in your eyes
reflecting back
into my life

and when i come home, i see you there
your soul's asleep, you're so polite
rest your head, just a lil' while longer
rest your head, just a lil' while longer

i hold you
deep in my arms
i watch as you fall
asleep in the night

i wonder
what you are thinking
as i look right
into your eyes

the moonlight
glows into your eyes
it shines a light
over my whole life

and when i come home, i see you there
your soul's asleep, you're so polite
rest your head, just a lil' while longer
rest your head, just a lil' while longer

Highway 1

going down this road
to san diego
i feel the breeze
running next to me
i share the moon
like an open wound
'hey, everyone look!'
like an open book
that holds the tides
so the waters won't rise

i'm driving down highway 1

coming around the bend
past san clemente
i lose all my fears
and shed away these tears
this road will take
take you any way
and this road will make
your heart... salivate
but you won't mind
spending this time

i'm driving down highway 1

all the roads i've been on
in my life
nothing compares
to you
highway 1, said highway 1
you're my only 1

Poor Boy

poor boy, your heart is broken, it
shows on your face
she was the one for you, she
can't be replaced
you built your life around her,
now she's run away
head down and and walking around, your
hands in your face

over and over
this happens again
you can't help it
playing that game


why does this always happen, you
think to yourself
what curse have i not broken
to save my soul
what was she really thinking?
you want to know
or are you just that hopeless
and nothing more?

over and over
this happens again
you can't help it
playing that game


poor boy, your heart is broken, it
shows on your face
she was the one for you, she
can't be replaced
you built your life around her,
now she's run away
head down and and walking around, your
hands in your face

Love, Hate Kind of Thing


She met him in the city where business wont rest
Started out as nothing until it progressed
Into something that only he could obsess
The truth was just too hard for him to confess

Months had gone by without a reply
All he wanted for her was to satisfy
Still he shook it off and kept his course
Not thinking of any remorse

It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game we play
It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game...


Then one day she finally opened up
Took his hand and said, "hey, start looking up"
Never did the boy feel the same since that day
He drove around in circles not knowing what to say

He dreams about her each and every nite
Thoughts of her beauty remain his only sight
Walking around the city thinking of his pseudo-lover
Matching each cloud to a memory of her

It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game we play
It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game...


Now she comes back with a new way to live
Asking him for something that he will always give
It seems that the tide is finally gonna turn
Only to be slapped in the face and burned

It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game we play
It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game…

It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game we play
It's a love-hate kind of thing
It's a love-hate game...
