At The Sight Of Daylight

With every love
Comes an unending art
It goes and grows up like a rising sun
It's simple enough
The voice was in my heart
I know, but no one said it could be done
Don't lend me your hand
Don't cry if you can't
Reach out to everything
So, what if I'm right
I guess that I might
Smile at the sight of daylight
This may not help
But I can tell you, now
I know, but don't tell anybody else
And don't tell me I'm wrong
Just play along
'Cuz I don;t know anything
So, what if I'm right
I guess that I might
Smile at the sight of daylight

For Love Forlorn
03:44

There's a desperate reminder softly written on the page
A calm and quiet cry for help with a faded letter "H"
Both love and fear have found you as the nighttime closes in
And suddenly the dream begins
So open your eyes, child
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
And you still have a chance
There's no greater sound than finding hope for love forlorn
Screaming at the walls won't fail you like it's done before
And all this piercing silence that could cut a man too soon
It's killing me, and it's killing you
Just open your eyes, child
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
And you still have a chance
So open your eyes, love
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
And you still have a chance
The dream is over, now
The dream is over
Just open your eyes, child
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
So just open your eyes, child
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
And you still have a chance
So open your eyes, love
There's life in your hands
The weight of the world
Isn't meant to be yours
And you still have a chance
You still have a chance
You still have a chance

I Can't Explain

I can't explain what's been happenin'
Been to the moon and back, again
I'm gonna pass it down like stories from way back when
Back when I didn't know just what the sky could hold
Or what the birds and the bees were told
I was a starry-eyed fool with a mind spinning out of control
And all I want for you
For you to want it, too
That all the wonder still remains
For all the things I can't explain
I can't explain where this is coming from
All those songs I wrote about the sun
Well, now they all revolve around my son
And I can't explain
'Cuz all I want for you
For you to want it, too
That all the wonder still remains
For all the things I can't explain
And all I really want for you
For you to want it, too
That all the wonder still remains
For all the things I can't explain
'Cuz over on the other side
The grass ain't as green as mine
It's not as green as you and I
I'm gonna teach you how to right your wrongs
And I'll teach you how to sing your songs
And to fight right through the storm before the calm
And all I want for you
Is for you to want it, too
That all the wonder still remains
For all the things I can't explain
And all I really want for you
For you to want it, too
That all the wonder still remains
For all the things I can't explain
It's like that feeling when the sun shines when it rains
That I can't explain

Little Momma
02:51

She's been all the little places that you'll go
Making friends with all the daydreams that you'll grow to know
And she'll make no exceptions
For anyone
So keep your dreams alive
Like your little momma
I'll hold you tight
Like your little momma
They say a picture's worth
A thousand words
Well, I'm gonna sing an endless verse
'Cuz all I see is you
And your little momma
When we lay you down to fall asleep
I hope you keep your mind wide open and the wonder so deep
Breath in the starlight
When you say goodnight
And keep your dreams alive
Like your little momma
I'll hold you tight
Like your little momma
If a picture's worth a thousand words
Then I'm gonna sing an endless verse
'Cuz all I see is you
And your little momma, momma, momma
Little momma, momma, momma
Little momma
Little momma
Keep your dreams alive
Like your little momma
I'll hold you tight
Like your little momma
If it's all the same, I'll gladly claim
That I'll be sure I can explain
That I know you'll grow to be
Just like your little momma, momma, momma
Little momma, momma
Oh, you're gonna be your momma, momma,
Momma's boy

At The Sight Of Tonight
03:34
|
|

I was never lost till I let me fall apart
But the pieces led me back to a spoken work of art
The words were frozen in time
But I was destined to find
That the voice was always here within my heart
Now something's going on in the center of the sun
It's burning through the night, washing out the starry sky
I was almost afraid
But then a promise was made
That when the night returns, our lives will come undone
I'm not here to fear for that day
'Cuz it's only the beginning of our fate
I feel we'll come back to life
At the sight of tonight
At the sight of tonight
I've been getting lost in the magic of your words
Of everything I'd learned, suddenly I wasn't sure
It was hard not to read
Past the lines that we'd need
So I stopped myself before it was a blur
I'm not here to fear the unknown,
But I know there's something more than we've been shown
I feel we'll come back to life
At the sight of tonight
At the sight of tonight
I was never lost till I let me fall apart
But the pieces led me back to a broken work of art
I was destined to fight
At the sight of tonight
To repair the broken pieces of my heart
