Sweet Oblivion
I am a lonely only child
Talk to myself I’m a Pisces sign
Yeah you can call me a weirdo
But I know I know
That I belong in the wind and blooms
Under the apple trees of my youth
I like to go slow to watch the beauty in slo-mo
I run free
Through castles of clouds
By the sea
On my skin feel the sun come undone
And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
It’s the sweet
The sweetest love
So turn down the noise
Turn up the dream
I made a world that’s all for me
And I can burst out of my seams
With love and ethereality
I belong in the wind and blooms
Under the apple trees of my youth
I like to go slow to watch the beauty in slo-mo
I run free
Through castles of clouds
By the sea
On my skin feel the sun come undone
And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
It’s the sweet
The sweetest love
And when I go I’m never gone
‘Cause my heart’s on the shoreline
I will die as I was born
Sandstone in the moonlight
I thank God for my crazy friends
Hang at the bar like it’s our living room
Peel back the fruit
Seen by many known by few
And here we are catching the good in everything
And it’s sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Into deep waters and I come through
And I’m reconnected from a blissful view
And it’s all reflected
Sweet oblivion
Da dee dum da dee da da
Da dee dum da dee da da
It’s the sweet
The sweet
The sweetest love
The sweetest love
Sweet oblivion
Sweetest love
Sweet oblivion

Fairytale Love - KINLEY
You’re blowing up like a smokestack
Blowing smoke all over this town
You can yell and say it’s only a debate
But you’re the only one talking right now..
So I’m closing the book on us
Yeah I’m walking away, (walking away).
‘Cause if I walk away it’ll dissipate
And I don’t need your drama anyhow
I’m still looking for that fairytale love
No reason it can’t exist
I’m still dreaming of that fairytale love
Someday I’ll find it.
I was on the upswing
Everything good was happening to me
Somehow we got out of sync
You were stuck in a rut only thinking ‘bout a ring
You were just staying put,
not growing, not doing anything,
I was trying to do it all
Make it better for us - it wasn’t better for me
I’m still looking for that fairytale love
No reason it can’t exist
I’m still dreaming of that fairytale love
Someday I’ll find it.
You can yell and say it’s only a debate
But all I hear is your precious hate
I can speak without a word coming out my mouth
Yeah It’s crazy how quiet can be so loud
I’ll be alright on the other side of now
‘Cause this time the fighting turned out alright
And I have finally seen the light.
I was never meant to be with you forever
This was just for a while
Yeah I’m still looking for that fairytale love
No reason it can’t exist
I’m still dreaming of that fairytale love
Someday I’ll find it.
Yeah I’m still looking for that fairytale love
I’m still dreaming of a prince I’m proud of
Someday I’ll find him.

Eiffel Tower - KINLEY
I should have known we would never work out
We were fighting at the Eiffel Tower
In the city of love
I remember when it all turned sour
You just biked away
I was filled with all this rage
So far from home
I’ve never felt so all alone
But I don’t want to be alone tonight
I don’t want to be alone for all of my life
I know everything’s connected
But not my heart and head yet.
So I don’t want to be alone tonight
Yeah I don’t settle
I put my pedal to the metal
At the end of the day we talk it out
I don’t even know what we were fighting about
Doomed from the beginning
I thought I said that this was just a fling
Sleeping in the same bed
You never heard anything I said
But I don’t want to be alone tonight
I don’t want to be alone for all of my life
I know everything’s connected
But not my heart and head yet.
So I don’t want to be alone tonight.
Surrounded by romantic language
But what you say I can’t translate it
I thought we were forever baby
But I was living in another rose-colored daydream
I’ll get over you under someone new
I don’t want to be alone tonight
I don’t want to be alone for all of my life
I know everything’s connected
But not my heart and head yet.
So I don’t want to be alone tonight.
I should have known we would never work out
We were fighting at the Eiffel Tower
I should have known, I should have known
I remember when it all turned sour.
I know everything’s connected
I don’t want to be alone
But not my heart and head yet.
I don’t want to be alone
So I don’t want to be alone tonight.

Daylight
(KINLEY x Good Neighbour)
Felt like the longest night
Each night was getting longer
The Earth tilted away
We were left in the shade
I woke up just in time
For the sun to be reborn
Everything’s changing now
I’m here to keep you warm
Feel the weight of the world
Fall right off my shoulders
Now when I walk I twirl
Take my first step and I’m floating
Even on the longest night
I know it’s gonna get better
Short days will grow so long
‘Cause this is our renaissance
Daylight
How I’ve missed you back in my dang life
ohhh
Daylight
It’s crazy what you do to me inside
Yeah you’re my
Daylight
When you’re gone
I know it’s only for tonight
I looked up to the stars
Hope to see what I want
my heart’s opening up
Love and beauty all around
Just by coincidence
We’re here for the great conjunction
Maybe it was fate all along
Hope arrived just in time with
Daylight
How i’ve missed you back in my dang life
Oh
Daylight
It’s crazy what you do to me inside
Yeah you’re my
Daaaaylight
When you’re gone
I know it’s only for tonight
clear skies wide eyes
I love dancing into daylight
Without you ya know it just ain’t right
No love no light
With the pull of your heavenly body
I’m losing grip of reality, and even gravity
Now i’m dancing into daylight
Now i’m dancing into daylight
Now i’m dancing into daylight
Now i’m dancing into daylight

Dirty Blue Jeans
I can’t take another hit like I just did
Dying for all the wrong reasons like Juliet
I wanna be a mourning dove
Despite the name I wanna live for love
I don’t wanna be a side chick
Don’t wanna live a secret life chick
Keeper of your stories
But I’m not here for the glory
Are you forever or for right now? I can’t tell
You fly me so high, sun in my eyes, make me melt
Dirty blue jeans and your perfect smile
Your pearl snap plaid gets me every time
You tell me you’ve dreaming of the summertime and we’re walking through
flowers of every kind
When I wake up in the morning I’ve got you on my mind
Can’t wait to see you and lay by your side
It’s only been a few weeks but it feels like awhile
Maybe I knew you in another life
I’m so happy you’re mine
So back to you and me: are you gonna be around at the end of the summer?
Can we make plans or should I start to picture another?
For once in my life I heard my own advice:
Don’t go looking for trouble in paradise.
So I pull my shoulders back, I think before I react
Are you forever or for right now? I can’t tell
You fly me so high, sun in my eyes, make me melt
Dirty blue jeans and your perfect smile
Your pearl snap plaid gets me every time
You tell me you’ve dreaming of the summertime and we’re walking through
flowers of every kind
When I wake up in the morning I’ve got you on my mind
Can’t wait to see you and lay by your side
It’s only been a few weeks but it feels like awhile
Maybe I knew you in another life
I’m so happy you’re mine
But we were on and off then on again
Sparkle drink break up mixed with gin
But you are a good man
We’re back together again
So I’ll keep it white wine classy
Singing harmonies to High Valley
Dirty blue jeans and your perfect smile
Your pearl snap plaid gets me every time
You tell me you’ve dreaming of the summertime and we’re walking through
flowers of every kind
When I wake up in the morning I’ve got you on my mind
Can’t wait to see you and lay by your side
It’s only been a few weeks but it feels like awhile
Maybe I knew you in another life
I’m so happy you’re mine

Blue Moon
We were meant to be in love. We were meant to stay. We were meant to be forever, but he walked away.
Cause “You can’t come in,” say the lawmakers, so now he’s a heartbreaker, I feel the wind and I’m on my own.
Under the blue blue moon. Under the blue blue moon.
I sat where my friend wrote all about his haunted heart. In the next room lived a man I don’t like to think about. He turned to anger on a dime like an animal that never reached its prime. I’ll never forget the tone he used with the ones that gave their time.
Have I been bestowed a lonely curse? If they fall for me then I want better or worse. I think I’m better off and better on my own.
Under the blue blue moon. Under the blue blue moon.
I didn’t even realize it wasn’t even right.
Poetry of sadness follows me at night
I’m here to understand it and turn it all around this time
I’ll try not to rush so fast like I always do and I get caught in the mast. Losing sight of who I am and where I should be going.
You’ve gotta live your own life. Work on yourself and the love will arrive. At least that’s what my mother tells me and she is usually right.
Under the blue blue moon. Under the blue blue moon.
I let go and all of my dreams come true
I feel it all when guided by stars and the moon
Yeah it can be cold in the shadows so I also need the sun.
Yeah Baby there’s more pressure with a good horse than a poor one
He showed up without me trying. (But) will he cherish my heart or feed it to the lions?
All I know is when he sings, I’ll believe anything.
But even if we don’t work out I’ll be fine I’ve got no doubt
I was born to find/love myself (again)
Under the blue blue moon. Under the blue moon.

Eyes On The Clock
(D) All the roses that I sent you have shrivelled up and died
But you hang on to them baby you enjoy them from the upside
(K) I can’t sing in front of you baby even when you want me to
But I can say whatever I want babe, that’s why I’m always calling you.
(K) The snow has started now
(D) I’ll make it back somehow
(K) I can’t wait to see your face
(D) I swear I won’t be late
(K) It’s really coming down
(BOTH) I’ll be home in time to kiss you
And I hope I don’t miss you
I might miss a lot but I’ve got my eyes on the clock.
(D) And when our song comes through the speakers I can almost see your smile
Running through the airport baby I wanna be your Valentine
(K) I’ve been California dreaming everything is easy in the sunshine
I’ve been wondering why we stay here
They don’t have this on the West side.
(K) The snow has started now
(D) I’ll make it back somehow
(K) I can’t wait to see your face
(D) I swear I won’t be late
(D) It’s really coming down
(BOTH) I’ll be home in time to kiss you
And I hope I don’t miss you
I might miss a lot but I’ve got my eyes on the clock.
(SAME TIME)
(D) I’ll be home in time to kiss you
And I hope I don’t miss you
I might miss a lot but I’ve got my eyes on the clock.
(K) All the roses that you sent me have shrivelled up and died

Where Did You Take Me

Where Did You Take Me
The greatest of lakes pass through the St. Lawrence
So many fish in the sea are among us
Some are just passing on through to warm waters
Some they get lost or run away for the summer
They hang in the cove or the bay just for fun
Putting on shows for all those in the sun
Maybe they just needed time
Or the beautiful scenery caught their eye
Oh where did you take me?
This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen
Oh where did you take me?
Now that I’ve been here well I don’t want to leave
The sand it’ll sing you a tune
While the marram grass paints on the dunes
Perfect white circled art made by the breeze
And the sandbars imprint from the moon and the sea
Oh where did you take me?
This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen
Oh where did you take me?
Now that I’ve been here well I don’t want to leave
The coral sun sets on a baby blue sea
Right next to you is where I want to be
With your beautiful lilt I get lost in your eyes
I wonder what you see when you look at mine
You say that the colours change all of the time
You laugh and then say that you are colourblind
I wonder what you see when you look at me
Oh where did you take me?
This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen
Oh where did you take me?
Now that I’ve been here well I don’t want to leave
When the glitter path falls on the water
The light trail follows wherever we wander
You’re part of my new favourite view
I’d spend every sunset and sunrise with you
You brought me St. Peter’s keys up to heaven
You’re always my wish at 11:11
Where did you take me? I don’t want to leave.
Where did you take me?

Angel’s Song
You got me thinking, of all that I treasure
And how the other stuff doesn’t really matter
In sorrow there is beauty, ‘cause sadness stems from love
I miss your sweet face laughing on the bus
I hear your voice and I see your smile
Walking down the halls of our junior high
Memories live forever and in the hearts of those you love
Nothing truly ends., Everyone I love’s eternal.
Oh Angel, sweet angel above
Oh Angel, you are the light and the love
So I’ll sing this for you and hope that you approve
And spread your love - on golden days I think of you
An angel of the Earth you will always be
but now you’re destined for heavenly things
I’m just trying to make sense of it all
I thought I could see the outline your wings
Life it changes but it will never cease
Every ending’s a beginning in life’s eternal wheel.
Oh Angel, sweet angel above
Oh Angel you are the light and the love
And the birds they will sing, they’ll sing your song
And when the kittens awake, they’ll bring their dolls
A friendship like this could never bend
To infinity and beyond this love has no end.
You are good and kind, the kind that shines
So proud to call you a friend of mine.
Memories live forever and in the hearts of those you love
Nothing truly ends., Everyone I love’s eternal.
Oh Angel, sweet angel above
Oh Angel you are the light and the love
Oh Angel you are an angel above
Oh Angel you are the light and the love

Rum and Tequila
Guess I should tell you, you told me you loved me last night
Followed it quickly with “I love everyone in my life”
Safe to assume you don’t recall, by that look in your eyes
Let’s have no secrets, I’ll lay it all on the line
You planned our lives
in one single night
ripped them apart
in the blink of an eye
With that rum and tequila
The drugs he’s been dealing
On the biggest summer night
A Little too on time
Showed me your darker side
Your open heart
You could let yourself be right
It’s not rum or tequila
Or drugs you’ve been dealing
It’s the best of summer nights
Magic numbers
Chance encounters
And the look of love in your eyes
I need patience,
Good communication
And the look of love in your eyes
You planned our lives
in one single night
ripped them apart
in the blink of an eye
With that rum and tequila
The drugs he’s been dealing
On the biggest summer night
A Little too on time
Showed me your darker side
Your open heart
You could let yourself be right
Its not rum or tequila
The drugs you’ve been dealing
It’s the best of summer nights
I know I’m sensitive
But I got a lot to give
I know I’ve loved you for awhile
I could step back a bit
I could let my feelings sit
Honesty is so out of style
Keep it on the inside
Keep you and I alive
But confessing in the moonlight
Baby that’s what I like
Say what’s on your mind like all of the time
You planned our lives
in one single night
ripped them apart
in the blink of an eye
With that rum and tequila
The drugs he’s been dealing
On the biggest summer night
A Little too on time
Showed me your darker side
Your open heart
You could let yourself be right
Its not rum or tequila
The drugs you’ve been dealing
It’s the best of summer nights
Last night’s over and today’s a new day
But last night’s feelings just won’t go away.
So hungover - I just want to play
So I’ll mix it up and shake it off and leave it in the ashtray.

CHARLOTTE
Charlotte Charlotte how’ve you been? You’ve been looking paper thin. Early mornings, endless nights, drowning in your sunset eyes.
Park is lit, the crows are high. You’ve been on my mind tonight. When I go so far away Charlotte always makes me stay stay stay stay stay.
Broken mirrors, razorblades. Charlotte learned to love the pain. *Fear me, fight me let me go. Show me what your body knows. Poison poison on your lips. Tell me lies I can’t resist. Busted locks and heavy chains. Charlotte always made me pay pay pay pay pay.
You’ve been on my mind tonight.
You’ve been on my mind tonight.
You’ve been on my mind tonight.
Yeah you don’t like being alone. You can fight, you can roam. Yeah you’re lost out here on your own. You can fire me up you can let me go.
Charlotte Charlotte where’ve you been? You’ve been looking razor thin. Secrets in your bloodshot eyes. You’ve been on my mind tonight.
Don’t like sleeping alone. You can fight, you can run. Yeah you’re lost out here on your own. You can fire me up you can let me go.
Never gonna let you go / yeah your Siren song
Never gonna let you go / yeah it won’t be there for long
Never gonna let you go

U
U pulled me out of the darkness
U now you’re makin’ my heart race
U got me laughing while my arms shake
U are the light in these strange days
U are the light in these strange days
U lead the way while the others stay
U I was always stuck in the doorway
One step forward two steps back
Now I’m dancing and feelin’ fine, part of the grapevine of good times.
Cody’s got a hole-in-one, no more bogeys
Nicky said she’s going pro
Shootin’ 3’s from the freeway
And Erin has been found
Hauling weights now she’s moving mountains all over town.
‘Cause U pull us out of the darkness
U now you’re makin’ our hearts race
U got us laughing while our knees shake
U are the light in these strange days
I’ve never felt more awake.
Life is good we’ve got no time to waste
U can feel vibrations being raised
It’s a good time
It’s a good place.
And U pulled me out of the darkness
U now you’re makin’ my heart race
U got me laughing while my arms shake
U are the light in these strange days.
‘Cause U pull us out of the darkness
U now you’re makin’ our hearts race
U got us laughing while we all shake
U are the light in these strange days
U are the light in these strange days

6’2
You were my hot headed flower
A scorpion mixed with whiskey sour
But without the skills to calm
My prince you became a time ticking bomb
How I wish you could be the whole package
But the writing’s on the wall
And even strangers had to call
To say you’re not the greatest of all
6’2 I’m trying to get over you
6’2 I loved walking next to you
You came through at 98 miles an hour
But I’m through with giving you all my power
There were fun times in the sun vibes
Made me feel like I’d won it all
But underneath those funny conversations
Was an underworld I couldn’t absolve.
I’ve seen things like this before
Swore I’d never walk through that door
But your smile and the line of your jaw
made me forget as I floated in awe
Now I’m stuck in a memory of what we had
I wake in the morning just a phone in my bed
But I’m thankful. I don’t need an angry man
Hope you change but for me it’s a lifetime ban
Lifetime ban
6’2 I’m trying to get over you
6’2 I loved walking next to you
You came through at 98 miles an hour
But I’m through with giving you all my power
Did I manifest this in some backwards fashion
I was looking for love not unhealthy passion
‘Cause you don’t like to compromise
Even when I catch you in a bed of lies
But your heart it remains in this town
And the scars you inflict can be seen all around
I’ll never forget how I started to drown in the waves of your fraudulent love
But an angel was sent from above to pull me out
6’2 starting to get over you
6’2 I loved walking next to you
You came through at 98 miles an hour
But I’m through with giving you all my power
Lifetime ban
Lifetime ban

Together
I don’t know where to start
All these aches in my heart
But I know we’ll get through this together.
Can’t imagine the scope of your pain
All the heaviness in one tiny place.
Just know, we’ll get through this together.
And as the years go on,
we’ll never forget all the good that passed on.
And I know we’ll get through this together.
When you look to the sky it can help
Red sailor sunsets, a plane overhead
Sending love and hearts through the air
And I know that most days will be hard
But you can’t forget just how strong you are
We’ll be alright together.
When it seems like you can’t go on
We’ll be there to hold your hand.
When it seems as though everything’s lost
Love will find you in the end.
When the darkness comes flooding back in
We’ll leave a light on for you my friend.
And the flowers will swing into bloom
And the sun will shine again
And the sun will shine again
And the sun will shine again
