Lights And Raindrops

(álbum: Traverse - 2013)

You always told me not to sweat it
and you talk a lot, yeah you talk a lot
and you act like I don't get it

This is not what I expected
but darling I hope that you regret it

It's a simple thing
what you're all about
you like the fast life
and parties
and staying out

You're a simple girl
you've always been that way
although it holds just one problem
you'll never change

You see we all grow up
and we all learn to live
and we get hurt a lot
and we get over it

and when you take your time
to find out that we're still just kids
you'll see this world has a lot
you can offer it

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
You're hopes always stray
from the things that you want

and

Whoa-oh-oh
When will you see
we'll help fix each other
you're all that I need

You're all that I need
You're all that I need

It's a simple thing
the way you've always felt
like your friends have to guide you
instead of yourself

We can Traverse this life, girl
we won't leave a trail
your mind is your anchor
your heart is your sail

We all learn to live
and we find out bout love
and we fall into it

And when you take your time
to wonder why we're stuck like this
you'll have a reason to say
this is not okay

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
You're hopes always stray
from the things that you want

and

Whoa-oh-oh
When will you see
we'll help fix each other
you're all that I need

Whoa-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
Our problems just keep us
from finding our thoughts

but

One day, anyways
I'll find out how to say
that if you can promise to stay
we'll be okay

Is this real enough for you to believe
you see it enough but it's still just a dream
your attention, I'd mention, is not what it seems
cuz you're actually telling me

Telling me
Telling me

That I have never stepped forward for you
you tell me you're serious now that we're through
I wish that the things that you said then were true
But I'll fix all of this and I'll fix it for you

You always told me not to sweat it
and you talk a lot, yeah you talk a lot
but you'll never ever get it

this is not what you expected
but darling I know that you regret it

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
The things that you want
are the things that you're not

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
You're hopes always stray
from the things that you want

and

Whoa-oh-oh
When will you see
we'll help fix each other
you're all that I need

Whoa-oh-oh-oh
La-da-da-da
Our problems just keep us
from finding our thoughts

but

One day, anyways
I'll find out how to say
that if you can promise to stay
we'll be okay
