Tofino 02/02

Waiting for the next bus at the station
Still not sure of my next destination
But I know I've gotta go
Sitting in a cafe in a new town
Trying to figure out what I should do now
Here in Tofino
Everyone here is a stranger to me
I guess that's the way I kinda forced it to be
Never one to wait around and see what happens next
I guess lonliness is the consequence
Found a cheap apartment by the water
We throw rocks and paystubs at the yachters
Oh, it's almost home
We put bets down on your next collision
And I never regretted my decision
To go wherever I may roam
I know you think that bottle can't betray you
But I can tell you you're wrong
That's why you're alone in your apartment
And I'm here singing this song

Here For Fun 02/02

No, I don't wanna go to your house
No, you can't come to mine
But if you behave we can meet for coffee
Or maybe even a bottle of wine
I'm just here for a little bit of fun, don't wanna be with anyone, just wanna be
I can't waste the time it takes to cry, asking myself why, it isn't me
No, I don't wanna here your feelings
I want to know what you think
I want you to light another cigarette for me and maybe pour me one more drink
No, I don't really love you
I just like standing on this ledge
Just be careful what you say from now on
It just might push me over the edge

Don't Leave the Light On 07/03

I had chocolate for breakfast again, I told my coffee how it would've been
If you had stayed
I threw my hands up and walked out the door, took my shoes off and ran to the shore
It's a brand new day
But don't tell me it'll be OK, 'cause it won't, don't say you know how I feel 'cause you don't
Don't tell me that this is how it was meant to be, don't leave the light on for me
One more coffee, one more cigarette, a concerned look from someone I've never met
Then they walk away
My darkness lifts a bit when I see your face, you take me to that special place
Like it's a brand new day
But don't tell me it'll be OK, 'cause it won't, don't say you know how I feel, 'cause you don't
Don't tell me that this is how it was meant to be, don't leave the light on for me
You make me so happy, but still I want to cry
Nothing will make this better til' God himself tells me why

Done Wrong 03/04

You done me wrong, you left me alone, singing this song, nowhere to call my home
You left me standing on the other side of the door to my heart
I sympathize with the way you feel, but all of those lies weren't part of the deal
You betrayed the love I had for you, in my heart
You know I'll want you here with me long after you set me free
But there's one thing I must ask you-if you love me, why can't you be true
Maybe I done you wrong, I ruined it..cried for so long, you thought I'd never quit
I took for granted how easily you let me into your heart
Now you say we can work it out, but I'll always have my doubts
I'll always wonder silently if you really want to be with me
