Everything 03:15
Every night I stay up and ask myself Was it all really worth it? Is it okay that I invested all of me Into all of you And I think of September 12th And the week after that How could you so easily forget Something so magical? But its all right because I know The person I fell in love with still exists She just needs a bit of love and caring To coax her out of the abyss And I think of the week after Istanbul And the struggles that we faced I promised you and myself I've got it all figured out And I gave you something real And I gave you all the time And I gave you somewhere to go And I gave you an escape And I gave you peace of mind And I gave you the space you craved And I gave you whatever you needed And I gave you everything And I'll give you more and more And I'll give you all your dreams And I'll give you all your hopes And I'll give you all our realities And I'll give you your future And I'll give until I can't And I'll give you something more even still And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything And I'll give you everything

Great River 04:06
The smell of those days Seem so far away I can't forget you Sitting in the park A little past dark I can't forget you Cuz you make me feel Unstoppable Unbreakable Unbeatable I loved your company At "Tea & Sympathy" I can't forget you Reflection in the glass I didn't feel like an ass For the first time And it wasn't the last time Cuz you make me feel Unstoppable Unbreakable Unbeatable

Night Light 03:17
Even on my darkest nights I still hoped I'd see the light Reflecting off of your big brown eyes You don't have to cry I don't care what you did When we were apart All that matters is Where we start over Can we start over? Can we start over? All over Again? I miss getting excited on Wednesdays When everyones working and we're in the backseat I'd give anything to go back to those days Driving through Cold Spring Harbor There's so many places we've yet to explore Together So let's drive upstate to Lagusta's and share our love Forever The only thing I can do nowadays is pick up My guitar And try to string some words together to show how special You are Cuz when I got down on my knee it wasn't just to impress You with some ring It was to show you how much the years we spent together Meant to me

I never knew I'd find a peace like I found with you Walking down New York Avenue Your hand in my hand, your lips to kiss How could I resist Even on the rainiest days you found a way To brighten everything Whether we were upstate or in your backyard You shined like the stars I still remember the night we sat in the dark And you looked at me It was right after Sandy and no one had a light And you walked into my life I knew from that look that everything was true I'll never ever feel blue That lot has always held a place in my heart No matter how far you are I feel like I'm running out of time I just want you to be mine Every night I go to sleep I see Your face in my dreams Every morning I wake up you leave Won't you come back to me Cuz I found my peace with you Walking down New York Avenue

Sweet Bliss 04:06
Oh my Vaness Won't you help me find my bliss I've been looking everywhere But I can't find you anywhere I looked in New Paltz and Highland Greenpoint and Long Island When I feel like giving up I think back to the place I was When we first met When we first met The sun in your hair The kisses on my neck How could I forget How could I forget The moon in your eyes The ocean raging inside me How could I forget How could I forget

Without You 02:03
Everytime I turn around I can feel my heart start to pound All my thoughts are replaced with you No matter how far I drive I would never ever survive Not a second goes by without you There isn't a thing in the world I can't do When I know I'll see you soon I never feel alone when I'm with you I don't want to ever think of a day A day when you'll look at me and say "I think I can live without you" When I think of all we've been through I still have hope I'll see you soon I'll always be happy when I'm with you It doesn't matter if it's on our rock Or we're sitting down on the dock Just as long as I'm not without you Can we go back to Central Park Walk around until it gets really dark I just wanna be with you I'll do whatever I have to do Just so I can see you soon I'm tired of living without you

You gave me everything I could hope for You made me feel unstoppable It's not a lie when I say I wanna feel that feeling again Or not feel anything at all I found my other half And I don't want to be apart Make me feel whole again I wanna feel like I'm home again I can't recreate these memories with anyone I gave you everything I could and more I don't want anything in return I just want to hold and feel you the way I did the night I found my other half And I don't want to be apart Make me feel whole again I wanna feel like I'm home again

I don't want this to be our last goodbye But I know sometimes you change your mind I just want you to know I'll be here Waiting... I can't get that day out of my head When you looked up at me and said "I'm not afraid anymore" What a feeling I felt It all started at the subway stop When you put your arms around me and my chin was on top ...of your head, and I couldn't stop kissing that little spot on your Forehead Then we went to Central Park and sat on the rock I told you some corny joke and you laughed Then I grabbed those little cheeks and laid the fattest kiss I could on those Pillowy lips We lost track of time and the hours went by Then we looked at each other and sighed It was brief before our stomaches rumbled "Let's go to Gulluoglu" After lunch you wanted a smoke I didn't like it but I kept up hope That I could kiss those lips, my lips, my honey lips Again and again It felt so nice I didn't mind Inhaling all the smoke through my eyes We sat down and had a drink "Let's go to Union Square after this" I was just a poor country boy And you were my city girl We couldn't be more different But I loved every minute It was hot for a September day And you needed to be refreshed So we stopped and got a drink I still remember what it was Cool Lime Refresher I didn't need one because I knew I could just steal it from you Through those sugary lips Steal like you stole my heart When we sat down next to the statue Looking at me with those big brown eyes "I'm not afraid anymore" A few more hours went by at Union Square Till we decided to get up and go We were on the search for some dinner I already had my dessert We walked down to Bleeker and MacDougal I told you stories of when I was little Sitting in the same gyro shop with my dad And all the fun little me had We sat down on the stools to eat But I couldn't stop saying "op beni" You could say I was on a sugar high And I needed more from those lips We went to Washington Square And I massaged your little feet and legs We'd been walking around all day But I wasn't in any pain The only pain came after When in the dark you said "I have to go home" I wanted you to go home too But with me instead When we got to Penn Station I waited with you as long as I could I didn't want to say goodbye I didn't want to say goodbye We shared one last hug and kiss I watched you run down those steps And then when I turned around I could feel my smile turn into a frown I know we spent the whole day together But I was thinking we could spend forever In each others arms On each others lips So I don't want this to be our last goodbye And I know sometimes you change your mind I just want you to know I'll be here Waiting...
