well i know that i can't be the man you want
but i know that i can be the man you need
well i won't say goodnight
until i finish one more point
and then i will follow you to sleep
well i know all the songs that you sing
and i'd like to think that i know what they mean
well you say he's not right
so won't you please just stay the night?
and then i will follow you to sleep
well we know he's got something that i don't
and i think that you know what that means
well we can't make things right
until you're standing by my side
and then i will follow you to sleep

sweet song

the sweet, sad sound of your song
it moves these lonely bones
i thought i was the only man alone
i thought wrong
and you may never know my name
but at least we feel the same way

it woke me up in the nighttime
the sound of a voice crying
and i stayed up to hear it sing
the sad sad song that the morning brings
and i've got a song to sing
sing it lowm
sweet and slow
i miss it most when i hear you sing
how does the whippoorwill know what i dream?

difference
03:07
|

|
i know there's a difference
with the way that you feel.
i got lost and i found something i couldn't heal.
now there's something between us
and i'm losing a friend.
light a match watch it blow out in the wind.
if you think you can stay,
don't let the day turn into night.
i know there's a list
of the things i should have done
but i know there's a way to be
the boy you've come
the boy you've grown to see.

i saw you last night
under the streetlight:
were you waiting for him?
were you holding his hand?
and i played my songs right
when we met that night.
we were falling in love.
we were falling in love.
i thought i heard you
while i was sleeping:
you were grabbing your coat.
you were heading to work.
but when i woke up
i knew i was dreaming:
i was alone in a room
with my clothes on the floor.
you can't know
what i've been through
without you
so put down the phone
because you don't want to know.
i saw you last night
under the streetlight
were you thinking of me
while you were alone?
i played my cards right
and you spent the night
we were falling in love.
we were falling in love.
you can't know
what i've been through
without you
so put down the phone
because you don't want to know.
you can't know
whaty i've been through
without you
so put down the phone.

battle bend recommends:
i consider evan k a peer. he has recorded most of the music we have all played over the last few years, spanning many bands and records. his completely underground lo-fi ep will peel your brain back.
