Love Like Woe

Woe oh, oh, oh! Woe oh, oh, oh! I kinda feel like it don't make, like it don't make Feel like it don't make sense I'm thinking baby you and I are undeniable But I'm finding now love's unreliable I'm given all I got to make you stay Or am I just a roadblock in your way? 'Cause your a pretty little windstorm Out on the boulevard Something like a sunset Oh, you're a shooting star And I might drive myself insane If those lips aren't speaking my name 'Cause I got some intuition Or maybe I'm superstitious But I think you're a pretty sweet pill that I'm swallowing down To counter this addiction You got me on a mission Tell me darling can I get a break, some how Could I say no? She's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) Girl's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) (Ba da da) I kinda feel like it don't make sense beacause you're bringing me in And now you're kicking me out again Love so strong (Woe oh oh oh) Then you moved on (Woe oh oh oh) Now I'm hung up in suspense Because you're bringing me in And then you're kicking me out again It's like a hurricane Speed train She's a moving car Go catch her in the fast lane Oh I gotta know Can I keep up with her pace? Kick it into gear when I see that face You can take up all my time 'cause you're the only one That can make a storm cloud break Pulling out the sun And I can get caught in the rain Can I get your lips to speak my name? 'Cause I got some intuition Or maybe I'm superstitious But I think you're a pretty sweet pill that I'm swallowing down To counter this addiction You got me on a mission Tell me darling can I get a break, some how Can I say no? She's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) Girl's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh (Ba da da) I kinda feel like it don't make sense 'Cause you're bringing me in And now you're kicking me out again Love so strong (Woe oh oh oh) Then you moved on (Woe oh oh oh) Now I'm hung up in suspense Because you're bringing me in And then you're kicking me out again Because we only have one life The timing in the moment All seem so right So would you say you're mine? (We'll be just fine) Would you say you're mine? (We'll be just fine) She's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) Girl's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) (Ba da da) I kinda feel like it don't make sense 'Cause you're bringing me in And now you're kicking me out again Love so strong (Woe oh oh oh) Then you moved on (Woe oh oh oh) Now I'm hung up in suspense Because you're bringing me in And then you're kicking me out again She's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) Girl's got a love like woe (Woe oh oh oh) (Ba da da) I kinda feel like it don't make sense 'Cause you're bringing me in And now you're kicking me out again Love so strong (Woe oh oh oh) Then you moved on (Woe oh oh oh) Now I'm hung up in suspense Because you're bringing me in And then you're kicking me out again
You go for seconds and days
I live for moments to say
That I may never get a second chance
Don't throw it away
Living for dollars and dimes
They'll all diminish in time
Oh let that motion come and crash like a plane from the sky
It was a long ride down the east coast
In a city can't keep
Could you keep up on your feet
And I was struck down by the west coast
It was a quarter to three but it don't do sleep

But follow the freeway
Break the routine
'Cause everything is second to your dreams
If this is the green light
Take what you need
And break out of this hospital scene
I'm running through a stop sign
Countin' up the quick lights
I don't want to slow slow slow slow down down
I'm running through a stop sign
Living so it feels right
I don't want to slow slow slow slow down down
Don't wanna slow it down

But I give impatience a try
Got a little enveloped in time
'Cause I watch you come and watch you go
And it don't seem right
Living for speed limit signs
Ignoring cross every line
Gotta let emotion take you over 20 miles at a time

But follow the freeway
Break the routine
'Cause everything is second to your dreams
If this is the green light
Take what you need
And break out of this hospital scene
I'm running through a stop sign
Countin' up the quick lights
I don't wanna slow slow slow slow down down
I'm running through a stop sign
Living so it feels right
I don't want to slow slow slow slow down down
Don't wanna slow it down

I'm running through stop sign
Got the world on my side
You know break light feeling more than alive
But it's so right see the shadow shadow tonight tonight
I'm running through stop sign
Got the world on my side
You know break light feeling more than alive
But it's so right see the shadow shadow tonight, tonight, tonight

But follow the freeway
Break the routine
'Cause everything is second to your dreams
If this is the green light
Take what you need
And break out of this hospital scene
I'm running through a stop sign
Countin' up the quick lights
I don't wanna slow slow slow slow down down
I'm running through a stop sign
Living so it feels right
I don't want to slow slow slow slow down down
Don't wanna slow it down
I'm running through a stop sign
Countin' up the quick lights
I don't wanna slow slow slow slow down down
I'm running through a stop sign
Living so it feels right
I don't want to slow slow slow slow down down
Don't wanna slow down
Stays Four The Same
I could've wrote down
every thought i've been thinking to myself all this past year.
I would've said in doubt
"Oh, I wanna make myself clear."
And baby - clearly
I need some balance in my ears right now
'Cause I've been freaking myself out
and I've been waking this whole town.

And then I turned myself inside out
la da da da da
And it's all about
the way your hips move
Side to side,
Left to right,
Guide me home tonight.
And I need a little more thunder, a little more lightning.
A little more you,
Be my lantern.
Help me shine on through.

So I said,
I, I gotta comb my brain for the words to say.
And if you don't feel right then it's a wasted night-
The price to pay is so, so high.
And the irony could be cut with a knife.
'Cause its my first chance.
But it's my last chance.


And then I turned myself inside out
la da da da da
And it's all about
the way your hips move
Side to side,
Left to right,
Guide me home tonight.
And I need a little more thunder, a little more lightning.
A little more you,
Be my lantern.
Help me shine on through.

Baby,
Well I gotta have you loving me tonight.
And when my world has become a whirlwind
Will you be my white flag?

Speed it up like sugar,
I'm a wreck and you know that I can't do a thing about it (about it).
Break it down,
I'm on my knees,
Baby take another chance, oh please.
I'm affordable, I'm trainable
When you're taking me out, I'm taking you in.

I gotta migrate a catastrophe.
Stood strong,
It was the best for me.
My town is irrela-relavant.
Blue eyes match green lies.
Yeah!

And I need a little more thunder, a little more lightning.
A little more you,
Be my lantern.
Help me shine on through.
And I need a little more thunder, a little more lightning.
A little more you,
(Give me more of you)
Be my lantern.
(Give me more of you)
Help me shine on through.

Baby,
Well I gotta have you loving me tonight.
And when my world has become a whirlwind
Will you be my white flag?

 The Blizzard of '89 feat. Christofer Drew

We welcome winter's wind
The colors of our bones
will you collect me and compound
and clear your mind before the ground gets cold.
Embers in air, the wind in your hair
If you were a snowflake, impossibly I'd be the same shape as you.

Spilled coffee in the mornings
You still adore me, and that's what I love about the cold nights
Cause your jacket fit me just my size.
Whoah oh oh
Baby love is like the holidays
Cause everyone's here and this is sincere (Check That!)
List you made for Christmas Day
Cause I'll be on the rooftop, all night, giving out
Gifts to the world so every boy and girl can
feel the way that I do, every time I see you.

And it's these subtle things that make our spirits warm
And it's the comfort of carols sung,
And ribbons hung,
And Christmas lights on distant back road drives.
Embers in air.
You know it's hard being so far, and so far
It's a test of strength, but all it takes is the moments by your side.

Come morning when I wake up,
You fix your make up.
Lighting the fire up all night.
We'll drink hot chocolate and sing and sigh.

Baby love is like the holidays
Cause everyone's here and this is sincere (Check That!)
List you made for Christmas Day
Cause I'll be on the rooftop, all night, giving out
Gifts to the world so every boy and girl can
Move the way that I do, every time I see you.

I'm coming home to the Midwest
Chasing down winter wonderland
You take your Poinsettia,
You tell me why it's better, being home right by your side

I'm driving home, but the ice storm is making this
a test of strength, a test!
Miracles real tonight,
The feelings right,
The decorations falling in place.

Oh love is like the holidays
Cause everyone's here
And this is sincere (Check That!)
List you made for Christmas Day
Cause I'll be on the rooftop, all night, giving out
Gifts to the world so every boy and girl can
Feel the way that I do every time I see you.
