SOUTHERN BREEZE (2019)
Replay
Down the field we kept the good times flowing
These old pines saw the young boys growing
Bare-feet bound stomp them on the ground
Good old times lighting up this town
No matter where we end up going
The bond we built will keep on glowing
The lights won’t fade no matter where we stay
Our tape is on replay
Life was good can’t deny all the worries passing by
Let the flames burn up high, harmonies light up the sky
When life gets away, we’ll put it on replay
Got each other’s back and let the whole town know it
Party all night no need to postpone it
Fill the cups show the world’s what’s up
Raise some hell we don’t need no club
Someday our lives might get hard
Press rewind watch it from the start
We break away from life today
Our tape is on replay
The Lucky Ones
Good ones appear to be so hard to find
Bad ones make sure to tell you they don’t mind
Happy ones sing their pretty lullabies
Sad ones will fake a smile but never tell you why
Are we afraid to have fun?
Are we too weary to get what we want?
When it’s all said and done
Now that I think about it I’m the lucky one
Hot ones can’t dance without their Chardonnay
Cold ones just won’t live up to that cliché
Fair ones should call the shots and hold the reins
The shady ones and crooked ones have way too much to say all day
Good ones appear to be so hard to find
Bad ones make sure to tell you they don’t mind
Happy ones sing their pretty lullabies
Sad ones will fake a smile but never tell you why
FREE
High heels, sunset low - watching your fire glow
Come on baby, let’s go - we are unstoppable!
Music is the key - a possibility
Dream of what we could be - two souls running free
Tonight, we chase the stars
We patch up all our scars
Creating avatars - ‘cause baby this is who we are
We have to clear our mind
Journey’s been redesigned
Our purpose redefined so we can leave what’s left behind
Running wild, running free
Flying high, above the sea
Touch the stars, just you and me
Forget the past, we’re running free - we’re running free
Low pitch heartbeat high - raise your hands to the sky
Stop asking yourself why - Anxiety - Goodbye
Start building something new - as long as you stay true
A panoramic view - break the walls, follow through
Tonight we break away, from sorrow and dismay
No matter what you say tomorrow will be today
We have to clear our mind
Journey’s been redesigned
Our purpose redefined
So we can leave what’s left behind
Make It Count
You’re used to live this way
be silent and obey
everyday
You’ve got to marry when you’re old
Need to dress up when it’s cold
you’ve been told
But no one told you that it’s fine
There are no rules and no timeline
Believe in yourself
And all will be fine
Every song you sing
Sing it out loud
Every move you make
make it count
Like a stranger passing by
You only stay a little while and
Fake a smile
You think that you don’t have choice
When you’re drowning in this noise
Use your voice
Cause no one told you that it’s fine/alright
There are no rules and no timeline
Believe in yourself
And all will be fine
Somehow, Somewhere
On a cold dark night
You were there by my side
In sorrow we shiver
In comfort we hide
All the stars we named
and the rivers we tamed
the songs that we whispered
‘bout treasures we claimed / ‘bout memories we made
Somehow someday
When skies turn gray
We rise and we fall but we’re not afraid - we’ll find our way
Somehow someday / Somehow Someday
So we used to be
blind now we see
Dreaming together
About you and me (‘bout what we could be)
All the stars we named
and the rivers we tamed
the songs that we whispered
will still be the same
Somehow someday
When skies turn gray
We rise and we fall but we’re not afraid - we’ll find our way
Somehow someday / Somehow Someday
Mama Said
Well momma said just leave ‘em be don’t try to understand
(When you) looked at me I knew right there this wouldn’t go as planned
That fizzy drink you spilled on me tasted sweeter on your lips
Then I realized I was only another name on your list
The only thing that we had on was the radio
singing Wagon Wheel from the top of our lungs till we couldn’t sing no more
Rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me any way
Rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me any way
Well momma said don’t be a fool don’t let them break your heart
The two of us were meant to fall I knew it from the start
Candlelight’s and sleepless nights couldn’t make you stay
I’ll carry on with our Old Crow song till my voice will fade away
You left me waiting all these weeks alone
I never thought you’d break up on the phone
Well I guess that I should’ve known
You told me something ‘bout a friendzone
Momma said but I didn’t care I’ve got one more thing to say
When you’re feeling down get your friends around, the band is here to play
Runaway
Walk down this road that has no name
Dreaming of fortune, dreaming of fame
I chose this life away from home
Ready to find what's still unknown
My lonely friend a shadow of doubt
But I won’t retreat and I won’t back out
So many roads I could go down
Too many seas where sweet dreams drown
Stroll down the line into the night
Taste the cold of the fading light
My sweetest friend a shadow of doubt
I won’t retreat I won’t back out
This is my way, it starts today
I won’t delay, won’t go astray
No need to pray for I’ll be okay
Before I fade and turn to gray…
I’m a runaway!
This is my way, it starts today
I won’t delay, won’t go astray
No need to pray for I’ll be okay
Before I fade and turn to gray…
I’m a runaway!
Vampire
Saturday night - didn’t care about wrong or right
Sitting all alone, looking at my phone
When I saw this girl…coming along!
She started talking to me - had a drink and left, ASAP
We took a cab downtown, started fooling around
She knocked my feet off the ground – yeah!
Ooooooooh yeeeaaah! Yeah! Yeah!
But I knew what she was all about
She was a vampire, she raised the stakes higher
Couldn’t get too close ‘cause I knew that she burned like fire
She was on a higher wire, craved my desire
And then she’d drain all of my blood ‘cause she was a vampire
She said baby let’s dance I was stuck inside a circumstance
She counted one two three, I couldn’t disagree, it was plain to see
She was all over me…yeah!
Ooooooooh yeeeaaah! Yeah! Yeah!
But I knew what she was all about
She was a vampire, she raised the stakes higher
Couldn’t get too close ‘cause I knew that she burned like fire
She was on a higher wire, craved my desire
And then she’d drain all of my blood ‘cause she was a vampire
Shot
Sunset’s on got my feet in the sand
Clapping to the rhythm of my favorite band
I spilled my drink, happened all in a blink
When honey I reminded you do not overthink
Last time I checked you were looking for your freedom
I keep all our pictures, but I wonder if I need’em
When I messed up you told me we should call it even
I send you all these texts but I wonder if you read’em
Can I get another shot of you and me?
Do we just pretend or are we meant to be?
Can I get another shot of you and me?
All our bets are off there ain’t no guarantee
I passed out my friends told me you’re gone
Damn I forgot to put my sunscreen on
You were a tease the occasional breeze
Excuse me darling can you get my shoulders please
The sand feels cold lying here all alone
Wondering why you never pick up the phone
You let it ring / I guess we’re not a thing
Still I find another thousand reasons to sing
Can I get another shot of you and me?
All our bets are off there ain’t no guarantee
Can I get another shot of you and me?
Do we just pretend or are we meant to be?
I just want another shot at you and me!
