Andrew 05:48
He fears what’s unknown And uses weapons to control My frozen heart was shattered When I took the bullet from Andrew’s gun I think it’s good that I drifted From feelings unrequited Even though I may be empty I have nothing left to lose Love is a crowning achievement And he’s ruling my design A knight in shining armor Doesn’t always win the fight. They swear by their gospel While I’m preaching the truth I’ll move along, and write a song about you I’ll speak my mind On our drive home tonight I’m blind to the man Who has her heart She said I was her savior But loves a man who shames her And it never made sense To drift apart Love is a crowning achievement And he’s ruling my design A knight in shining armor Doesn’t always win the fight. They swear by their gospel While I’m preaching the truth I’ll move along, and write a song about you A new day will dawn And I know I’ll be ok I know who I trust They will never drift away For every star that fades A new one will shine Familiar faces in someone new Second chances come with time Love is a crowning achievement He was ruling my design. A knight in shining armor Will fight for what’s right. I’ll write my own gospel I’ll keep preaching the truth And even when I’m gone this song will find it’s way to you

Hello New England It’s great to be with you I’ve seen your face in the depths of my dreams Your towers stand tall And your traffic crawls While Airplanes fly out over the sea. As I join the crowd That has heads in the clouds There’s someone I’m waiting to see My heart’s beating fast But my head says “relax, You don’t want to Rush into feelings” Hello New England I’ve been here a while now And it feels like home to me. I enjoy little talks While taking long walks Through the bright lights on Beacon Street. And she’s still on my mind And I’m spending my time Thinking about what we could be. My feelings are too risky But my heart is beating quickly So I’ll just love her in the depths of my dreams. What would you do If I said I love you Would it scare you away That I’m feeling this way I know my mind Is in two different places And I just can’t seem to figure it out Hello New England It’s getting cold out And the city is lighting up their trees I’m trying to accept The secrets I have kept Even though I wonder what she thinks of me………

Eye to I 03:32
Snow is falling down in the spring When I see you my heart still sings But my mouth is sewed shut When I just want to scream I’m broken now Talk to you, Got nothing to say I feel myself getting carried away By all the dreams I’ve been having ‘bout what we could be My eyes for another Is what you can’t see Lonely hearts are the ones who love the most The pain of love will haunt me like a ghost Another storm comes and I’m buried even deeper But I just have to let myself blow over The sun comes out and I see the light But I’m not in your dreams tonight I’m flashing a sign that you won’t see I’m not perfect for you but you’re perfect to me Look inside now The wind is blowing even faster Coming from the ocean I see myself floating away Trying to swim To where I wanna be My eyes for another Is what you can’t see Lonely hearts are the ones who love the most The pain of love will haunt me like a ghost Another storm comes and I’m buried even deeper But I just have to let myself blow over The sun comes out and I see the light But I’m not in your dreams tonight I’m flashing a sign that you won’t see I’m not perfect for you but you’re perfect to me You make me feel right at home I’m living in a house where I’m all alone Dusk will fall over me My eyes for another is what you can’t see My eyes for another is what you can’t see

Take One 02:47
Waking up to trudge through snow Make a plan to talk to Joe Write a story about a man Who has nowhere to go Quirky times and drum machines Instruments with extra strings We shoot for things above our heads Hoping we strike gold Crowded rooms with broken doors Music never heard before We all share a common dream And bring our dreams to life Different souls from different places Bring ideas that we embrace Chemistry starts to breed Time is standing still Meeting up near the park To make our plan in 9 parts We get off to a good start But then weed out all the rest Writing words that make no sense Just to get distracted again Within the night another song Becomes another Joke Crowded rooms with broken doors Music never heard before We all share a common dream And bring our dreams to life Different souls from different places Bring ideas that we embrace Chemistry starts to breed Time is standing still

Walking into a crowded room The show is starting soon We watch three men who live their dream Under the same roof They catch our eyes and our hearts Even though we’re miles apart This is where we see Where we truly want to be All our friends are in the crowd As we sing their songs aloud Different stages pave the way To show what they’re about In all of us they light the spark Even though we’re miles apart This is where we see Where we truly want to be

4 o’clock, get into work 6 hours of hell, that I don’t deserve. But I’ll be ok in the end, When I go home and to the basement. Music flows like purple rain, As we hop on Buffalo’s fruity train. Down to Amherst than Cheektowaga, Then have flute boy take us to Fredonia. 2am and lights are shining, Singing groovy jams we’re finding There’s no sign of this ending soon So we’ll just keep dancing by the light of the moon

On the Road 07:30
I hear them knocking at my door We get what we’re asking for They’re in my home we’re feelin’ fine We adventure through the night At Fordham Road we’re here to stay A familiar song begins to play Strumming chords and beating hearts Binding melodies once apart So we don’t worry about what we’ve seen Through each other we’re all set free We keep driving through the night And sing the songs that feel just right It’s the life we’re meant to live Every note on every page Binds our souls as we begin To take the stage We’re on the road and on the run Our journey here has just begun Worlds collide and set the stage A weekend in the golden age Familiar voices sing along As we travel far beyond What we all used to know But we have seen this all before So we don’t worry about what we’ve seen Through each other we’re all set free We keep driving through the night And sing the songs that feel just right It’s the life we’re meant to live Every note on every page Binds our souls as we begin To take the stage I was chasing the dream Living the life I wish I had Then feelings awoke in me That lived to see another day It’s the life we’re meant to live Every note on every page Binds our souls as we begin To take the stage

Looking in her eyes I see Reflections of a dream A familiar face in a new place It was meant to be A song that keeps on singing Harmonies echo across the stage I hold back my thoughts Because I know that it’s wrong To interrupt another man Who’s singing this song But the truth is still burning And I have to say it out loud I fell in love I fell in love Walking up a staircase To new heights that I will see An honest word to be confirmed As she listens to me Walk her through every step Every flight and where I fell She says she saw it coming ‘Cause the truth doesn’t hide And there’s no reason to regret What we share in life But our paths are different And she helps put my heart at ease So where’s the love? Where’s the love? Hello New England It took me a while To see that I’m not Far Away from Home I stand on a hill Where time’s standing still And I realize that She’s always there We found love We found love
