1. _ Bug
What would happen if I flew to San Francisco
Wouldn't make much sense
From the outside looking in
Coming around again
All the answers
Far too many questions
All the thing we said
Never really put to bed
Coming around again
You know I love you
What am I supposed to do
You're so far away
I stay on track
You're all over the map
Come back to L.A.
You know I love you
What am I supposed to do
I've been here before
I stay on track
You're all over the map
Come back to New York
Is this the only way for us to communicate
I put it in a song
Didn't really take too long
Coming around again
Coming around again

2. _ Fern Dell
These are the thoughts that keep me up at night
Asleep with you
Dull dog bark and no bite
In love with a fool feasting for my eyes
Fern Dell
Fern Dell
I thought I knew you well
Follow the kicks and punches with the rest
Rearrange the furniture hoping it would make more sense
It didn't make a difference
It only made a bigger mess
Fern Dell
Fern Dell
I thought I knew you well
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ha ha
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Here he comes along
Fresh in from the kill
Blood on the sheet
Lined up on my windowsill
Suddenly
Hollow me
Regrettably you never will
Fern Dell
Fern Dell
Oh
Fern Dell
Fern Dell
I thought I knew you well
I thought I knew you well

3. _ Everblue
Love doesn't come alone, now does it?
Present perfect tense
So you made yourself a little world
Where even strangers make more sense
I play the pain upright, straight ahead
And with the beat
You can ease yourself into the light
Or keep that record on repeat
What if I loved you
What if I loved you
What if I loved you
Everblue, Everblue
Following the sleepless hours
Unsubtle dreams will make you cave
You can paint them all your brilliant colors
Just don't fall off into the deep
Happiness is not a burden
Oh how the pendulum will swing
I have felt the ground
I've seen the seeds
Out of which grew golden wings
What if I loved you
What if I loved you
What if I loved you
Everblue, Everblue
High above the stars are dancing
To a song one bird is singing
And it's you my Everblue
What if I loved you
What if I loved you
You know I love you
My Everblue, Everblue
Everblue
Everblue

4. _ Merrimack River
Restless to Begin.
A wave comes crashing in.
The band on stage is tuning.
Jararandends are blooming.
Your face sketched in my dreams.
Puts my mind at ease.
Beneath the water frozen.
The Merrimack River is flowing.
Under Rolling.
Over.
[Chorus:]
Don't say you're not amazed when you know you are.
Don't say you're not afraid when you know you are.
Rows of boys and girls run out to seek the world.
Candy coated promise.
Just out of reach when you want it.
Give me something sweet.
Bring me to the brink.
I'll leave without hesitation.
To a world without limitation.
Rock me patient.
Slowly.
Don't say you're not amazed when you know you are.
Don't say you're not afraid when you know you are.
You know you are.
A world that moves too fast.
A mouth of broken glass.
It may not seem so painful.
By January, the rain will swallow.
Change will follow.
Don't say you're not amazed when you know you are.
Don't say you're not afraid when you know you are.
You know you are. I know you are.

5. _ Song About Home
Could I close the door behind me
And lock myself outside alone?
Could somebody please remind me
Why this bird still hasn't still flown
To a treetop on the mountainside
Or joined an arrow in the sky
I know, I know someday I will be home
To many dreams of my house burning
Where I'm the one who struck the match
Try to find the meaning
A life on fire, a bird a will hatch
To a treetop on the mountainside
Or join an arrow in the sky
I know, I know someday I will be home
Oh I am not afraid of alone
No I am not afraid of my own missteps
There's no regrets
At least not yet
Not yet
Took a bus across the country
My bags were full, they weighed me down
And on that trail to California
Shed my skin in every town
To a treetop on the mountainside
And joined an arrow in the sky
I know, I know finally found a home
I know, I know finally found a home
For now
A home
For now

7. _ Love to Love Me Back
I could handle your tortured heart
Even piece it together whenever you ripped it apart
But I can never be that kind of girl who absorbs that kind of suffering
And turns it into some kind of verb
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
A sky full of winter stars light up the streets of Manhattan
Wrapping linen in empty curls
Stretching in the summer sun
It's all out in the open
California highway
I don't wanna run
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
Listen to a distant train
I wonder where it's going
Maybe where it's coming from
It's all the same
Took some time to find my place
Where the crows are crying
I don't want somebody filling up these days
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back

8. _ Pocket Philosopher
Now I am walking on my own two feet.
The sun is shining.
My shadow is stretched across the street.
And I meet the eyes of the stranger, I can't quite place him but I wouldn't replace him.
For a second or a minute or an hour of the day.
I turn the corner, I was feeling good.
All the birds are humming, all the bees are buzzing.
And the trees and the leaves,
Looked a little bit greener.
And the air felt cleaner.
Yeah, I've must been dreaming.
For a second or a minute
But maybe that's okay.
Hey, come on let's play a song.
Two or three or four.
Five or if you want more.
Or maybe you got somewhere else to be.
Be, whoever you want to be!
Whatever you want to see.
Whatever you want to see.
I was awoken by the morning light.
My heart felt happy, I was quiet ready.
For the makeup or breakup.
Another good reason,
One that is pleasing.
In the world without season.
Cause the truth is not pretty when it hits you in the face.
Hey, come on let's play a song.
Two or three or four.
Five or if you want more.
Or maybe you got somewhere else to be.
Hey, come on let's play a song.
Two or three or four.
Five or if you want more.
Or maybe I'll just sing myself back to sleep.

9. _ Nothing Everything
Tired of waiting
Tired of hiding
Went a little late last night
But do you know how it feels
Under the wheels turning in the back of my mind
We have both been wrong before
Even though my heart is torn
I only want the best for you
Tell me a story
Saturday morning has brought a break in the clouds
Before the thunder and rain
Start up again
I want to let it all out
We have both been wrong before
And even though my heart is torn
I only want the best for you
You break the walls around me and take away my pain
If you can do this for me
Oh baby, you can do it for yourself
Out of rotation
Part of the process of building
Something new
In the darkest of nights, out on thin ice
I'll always be there for you
So wrap me in your arms
And keep me in your heart
I only want the best for you

10. _ I Could Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week
I'll make this painless.
Try to be sweet.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
Squeeze life out of you.
Wrap you in sheets.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
I'll make you nervous
Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
Do not you disturb you.
Sunday rolls around- but that's another story.
It gets a little boring.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
I hold on to you.
You hold on me
I could break your heart any day of the week.
Let the walls talk.
Let the four walls creek.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
Those calendar girls-- they got nothing of me.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
I'll make you nervous
Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
Do not you disturb you.
Sunday rolls around- but that's another story.
It gets a little boring.
Yeah-yeah.
Yeah-yeah.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
I'll make you nervous
Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
Do not you disturb you.
Sunday rolls around- but that's another story.
It gets a little boring.
I could turn you on.
I could turn the other cheek.
And it would break your heart any day of the week.
And it would break your heart any day of the week.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
I could break your heart any day of the week.
I could break your heart any day of the week.

11. _ Indian Summer
I could handle your tortured heart
Even piece it together whenever you ripped it apart
But I can never be that kind of girl who absorbs that kind of suffering
And turns it into some kind of verb
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
A sky full of winter stars light up the streets of Manhattan
Wrapping linen in empty curls
Stretching in the summer sun
It's all out in the open
California highway
I don't wanna run
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
Do do do do do do
Back
Do do do do do do
Back
Listen to a distant train
I wonder where it's going
Maybe where it's coming from
It's all the same
Took some time to find my place
Where the crows are crying
I don't want somebody filling up these days
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
I want to two way conversations
I want love to love me back
One that can handle any situation
I want love to love me back
(Love)
