Make Believe 03:29
I used to go up to the roof every night telling myself you were there too hearing your voice in the cars going by seeing your face in the moon It was something real once a month on the phone holding onto those two shining weeks when we met all those years ago Head in the clouds and feet on the ground I fell in love with a faraway sound still can’t explain the solace I found in make believe, make believe At the other end of the wire moved the air in a room as you lay your clothes on the bed folding towels in two All the words you heard in your ear every one you believed Then the cloth fell still in your hands did that voice really come from me? Head in the clouds and feet on the ground I fell in love with a faraway sound still can’t explain the solace I found in make believe, make believe and I stood up there alone like a bookmarked bible looking at the skyline downtown I stayed as long as I could but I had to come down Go be a bird, I’ll watch you soar here with your cage hung by the door something is lost but some things are more than just make believe, make believe

Queen Mary 04:13
Nothing was enough when I boarded the Queen Mary I still thought we’d be together like a Nat King Cole song looking at the water and I already felt cold maybe that boat was haunted or maybe it was just old Maybe I’ve held this crutch for too long I could be here or I could be gone we’re only feet from falling into our fate why do we wait? why do we wait? Plexiglass couldn’t keep the chill off my face it was easy to imagine all the men who stood here somebody was singing in the warm hotel bar I couldn’t believe you might be looking at the same stars Couldn’t believe the way I grew started to point away from you we’re only feet from falling into our fate why do we wait? why do we wait? on the ride home your music played I turned it up to stay awake hoping at last my love would fade, it would fade I was so alone when I boarded the Queen Mary couldn’t understand how I got myself there thinking of the ending is hard to let go I could be down below or I could be on that open sea if I just pulled my anchor free we’re only feet from falling into our fate why do we wait? why do we wait? we wait, we wait

Circle 03:26
I grew up skeptical the way they taught me but we've been here before in different bodies Be still my love, be still my fear and with a hand behind her ear I’ll steal a moment here on earth and circle back to her I sought a different dream that circled round her my life turned separately and then it found her Be still my love, be still my fear and with a hand behind her ear I’ll steal a moment here on earth and circle back to her and in the end, which is the start I’ll lay to rest a restless heart be still in peace below the ground and circle back around be still my love, be still my fear and with a hand behind her ear I’ll steal a moment here on earth and circle back to her

I haven’t been eating right since I left the other night and you took out your heart I keep telling you, don’t do that You put it on butcher block and somehow you couldn’t stop until it came apart I keep telling you, don’t do that but every time I think about forgetting you something says don’t do that, don’t do that, don’t do that You didn’t much like the show. I wish you would let it go don’t take it out on me I keep telling you, don’t do that and maybe I’m hard to please, but you keep expecting me to be somebody else I keep telling you, don’t do that but every time I think about forgetting you something says don’t do that, don’t do that, don’t do that don’t do that, don’t do what I’m afraid what I’m afraid you might do to me and please don’t do that, don’t do that, don’t do that don’t do that, don’t do that don’t do that, don’t do that

Through the dark I’ll cast my words out hoping they don’t break apart and though words may fail me, I will stay here loving you through the dark Every tear you’re crying now once was morning dew there’s a cloud upon your heart love is shining through love is shining through Through the dark I’ll cast my words out hoping they don’t break apart and though words may fail me, I will stay here loving you through the dark and though words may fail me, I will stay here loving you through the dark
