almost always crying...

you're the reason i cry myself to sleep...

you looked like the sun
i was the only one
who could stare until you were done shining on me
and as we drank our wine and let the world fade away
the sunrise tried to end it while we tried to stay.

the rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,
they bring me to you
they bring me to you

moon pours through the ceiling tonight
embraces us tight
shows me we're right for each other
and as we lie here and let the world fade away
the sunrise tries to end it while we try to stay.

the rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,

they bring me to you

it's all about the first night and last,
some people say
well i love you so much more tonight,
more than yesterday.

he rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,

they bring me to you

go now, don't look back...

i've gotten used to being introduced
hello, what's your name, how are you?

they see my smile, my life and the hurt behind my eye
loss is not so easily disguised

i've tried my best to keep on with my sunny disposition
but i close my eyes and end up reminiscing

so save me from waking up tonight
cause i toss and i turn and it doesn't feel right
save me from waking up tonight

left to my own devices i'd stay up till 3 am
spend the whole day awake and do it all again
cause my dreams are filled with pleasantries that make me think you're here with me
they won't let my poor heart mend

i have tried my darnedest to continue smiling wide
but i miss you and that's something i can't hide

so save me from waking up tonight
i thought i was fine but it looks as if i might not make it through the night
so save me from waking up tonight
please save me from waking up tonight
cause i toss and i turn and it doesn't feel right
please save me from waking up tonight

i'll kiss you like i want you to kiss me...

i got my ticket for the long way home
two bottles of whiskey for the way
and i sure would like some sweet company
i'm leaving tomorrow what do ya say

when i'm gone, when i'm gone
you're gonna miss me by my hair you're gonna miss me everywhere
you're gonna miss me when i'm gone

i got my ticket for the long way round
the one with the prettiest views
its got mountains its got rivers
its got should be woods give you shivers
but it sure would be prettier with you

when i'm gone, when i'm gone
you're gonna miss me by my walk you're gonna miss by my talk
and i know you will miss me when i'm gone

it wasn't you...

to you i wish that i could say i wish you well
but i think i'll be waiting until i'm honestly able
i'm sure the air is lighter on the sea
and every city settled far away from me
cause now i'm negotiating with the fear
something's wrong with the daylight here
and i can't fix it
crooked or kind, if im free, if im fine
either way, whatever i do
whichever coast, there'll be room there for ghosts
either way, i'll be thinking of you

when gone i have sworn that i will worry not of satisfaction, justice, or the will God
i'm not sure there's any difference in the three
whatever the conscience decrees, i hope we both feel right
crooked of kind, if i'm free, if i'm fine
either way, whatever i do
whichever coast, there'll be room there for ghosts
either way i'll be thinking of you
