Finding Paradise
07.11
I was thinking you and me could hop a plane this weekend
Maybe take a week and get out of the city
And go to someplace far away
Quiet beaches in the islands, step in the water to your knees
And then we get a little bit deeper, this is where we’re going
And time is never on our side, its never on our side
Cherishing the palm trees as they pass
In the air is sweet coconut oil
Feel the heat it makes you warm inside
On our way to finding paradise
Baby since the day I met you, I have always wondered
What it is about you that draws me closer to you
Is it your hair, the way that you dress
Is it your style, your seriousness
I want to take you somewhere we can relax
Lying on our backs, white sand with drinks in our hands
I won’t go without you, I won’t go without you
Too Late
07.11
It’s too late when you’re gone, It’s too late when you’re gone
This life we take a drive, nice car and ocean beside
Window down put a sound, in the dash with a beat so we can get down
And we can go until we need to close our eyes, finding when we rise
It’s beautiful outside
There’s someone you feel inside, goosebumps and butterflies
Expose your soul, bring ‘em close
Girl I knew it from the very start
There is something good about you I could get used to
But I really need to say to you
You got your heart broke by some guy who couldn’t see
Just how good you are, and now you’re wondering
What’s wrong with you, girl you who radiate
Your smile could calm a storm
Forgive him and move on
I know its scary to give yourself cause you could be left alone
Another scar on top of your heart
But it’s not about what happens when you give, give a lot cause it’s
Too late when you’ve gone away
Allison

There’s a scarf on the carpet, a girl on the stage.
The way she goes is like a parade
Always making me smile when she’s jumping around.
Where are you found?
Allison, look in the sky and I can wonder where you are
Drinking a tall sangria.
On the horizon, the sky lies on the ground.
Somewhere between them is where Allison is found.
People painting a canvas of what they desire
With their days and you put yours
On the back of a bird and its flying to some exotic land.
Allison, look at the fireflies to see what they become.
Turing the darkest night to gold.
4 in the morning to the sands of Mexico.
Still In Love
04.12
I caught you looking up. You smiled and looked away.
I wanted you so much.
They called it Summer love but we never gave it up.
Even though some things would change
You and I will always be the same
How did we get so close, every road we chose didn’t tear us apart
Though you were far away, I knew I’d see you again
Cause we are still in love, we are still in love
You had another man, I built the life we planned
But I couldn’t let it go.
You heard of where I was, then one morning you drove up
Even though some things had changed
You and I will always be the same
