Taking My Time

[Verse 1}
Wait let me get my wallet
Swear I'll be down in five
I know you said, that we should leave at two
And I'm sorry
[Verse 2]
I forgot my phone, will you call it
Who cares when we arrive?
What's the fuss baby? We're not in a rush
And I know none of us like to party
[Chorus]
So forgive me If I'm taking my time
I don't want this feeling to end
Taking my time
[Verse 3]
Set those keys on the table
How 'bout we just stay in
Two's not company, but with you It feels like
Three thousand angels surrounding me always
[Chorus]
Taking my time
I don't want this feeling to end
Taking my time (yeah)
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Forgive me if I'm taking my time
I don't want this feeling to end
Taking my time
[Outro]
Forgive me if I'm taking my time
I don't want this feeling to end

How Do You Know
04:11

[Verse 1]
Laying in your favorite jeans
Marvin Gaye playing on the record machine
Blankets scattered 'round the bed
Rearranging all the pillows to use
My chest for your head
[Verse 2]
Run my fingers through your hair
Said it needed to be washed but I don't care
You tell me to rub your thighs
Talking 'bout nothing 'til you close your eyes
[Chorus]
How do you know
When you're in love
How do you know
When you're in love
[Verse 3]
Stop
This winter's night has set the tone
Chilling in my finest sweatpants
And my dad's cologne
You tell me all about your day
I know you said it wasn't much
But say it anyway
[Verse 4]
'Cause I don't mind just
Sittin' and listenin' to you
You don't like to talk about yourself
But girl I like when you do
We've not left this room for hours
And I don't want to leave it
There is something here I feel it
[Chorus]
How do you know
When you're in love
How do you know
When you're in love
[Instrumental]

March, 1961

[Verse 1]
March, 1961
Hello, I am writing from
Some parkway diner in Iowa
There's a banker reading Kerouac
In the back
A waitress whistles 'Walk Don't Run'
[Verse 2]
I don't know when I'll be back
There are things that I need to do
And frankly I don't see you
In this hourglass
There's the man that you knew
And the man I want to be's not that
[Chorus]
You can tell your friends
And your family something else
But as long as it's March, 1961
I'm finding myself
[Verse 3]
Dark, but I can see the sun
I know I'll start driving, just as
Soon as the minute-hand meets the one
The banker's grabbed his coat-and-hat
Take's a drag
Steps on the cigarette butt
[Verse 4]
My soul says greet the past
But you knew what you were in for
Marrying a man from the working class
I'll be home soon enough
And you'll love me again
Like you have
[Chorus]
You can tell your friends
And your family something else
But as long as it's March, 1961
I'm finding myself
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 5]
March, 1962
So I've been a couple months away
But I know you'll get by
Like you always do
I said it before
But I promise that I'll be home soon
[Chorus]
Tell your friends
And your family something else
But as long as it's March, 1961
I'm finding myself

Lydia

[Verse 1]
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?
My mother still asks about you
Without you
The Sunday plate has one less person
[Verse 2]
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?
My sister still looks up to you
You knew
So how do I explain
You're on the brink of extinction?
[Pre-Chorus]
So if Lydia goes walking by your door today
Would you stop her before she disappears
'Cause this house can still be home when she is far away
But this heart cannot be whole if she's not here
[Chorus]
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?'
[Verse 3]
Lydia
Who in their life hasn't been in my position?
But in this space and time
It's a fitted disposition
Of wishin'
Maybe you would come 'round again
[Pre-Chorus]
So if Lydia goes walking by your door today
Would you stop her before she disappears
'Cause this house can still be home when she is far away
But this heart cannot be whole if she's not here
[Chorus]
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?'
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?'
[Outro]
Lydia, when will you come 'round
Like you used to?

Lay with Me
04:15
|
|||
[Verse 1]
Two o'clock A.M., I'm getting up
With a pillowcase
Stretched across my face
And a blanket on the rug
And it's the sixth time this week
I woke up like this
[Verse 2]
Sleeping way more often
And not 'cause I'm tired
I think that one of these times
I'm gonna open my eyes
And you'll be beside me
Saying "come back to bed,"
"come back to bed"
[Chorus]
Would you lay with me
One more time
Because I can't sleep
Through the night
With you on my mind
Baby, won't you lay with me tonight?
[Verse 3]
The worst part is (worst part is)
Not that you're gone (not that you're gone)
But that I have to go to bed knowing that
You're fine with me just going to bed
And that leaves a hole
Where you used to live (where ya used to live aw nah)
And I'm not used to it
[Chorus}
So would you lay with me
One more time
Because I can't sleep
Through the night
With you on my mind
Baby, won't you lay with me tonight?
[Bridge]
If you're still moving on
And I never cross your mind
(Think of me still)
Think of this while you're gone (think of me still)
You'll always have tomorrow
Baby, won't you lay with me tonight?
[Chorus]
So would you lay with me (lay with me)
One more time (I can't sleep through the night)
Because I can't sleep
Through the night (oh)
With you on my mind
Baby, won't you lay with me tonight?

Welcome Home, Virginia

[Verse 1]
Welcome home, Virginia
Welcome home you fool
Sip some coffee in the morning when it rains
Sip some coffee 'til it's full
[Verse 2]
Welcome home, Virginia
Leave your trauma in the storm
Swam a mile 'cross this frozen, vacant lake
I've been yearning for your warmth
[Pre-Chorus]
Walking by through yesterday for so long
Makes you think that yesterday was so long
Watching people look okay for so long
Makes you think you look okay for so long
[Chorus]
Listen to me good and listen to me loud
If I'm understood then say it to me now
So, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop paying your sentiments
Virginia this is where we live
Give it to me loud but give it to me good
You fill my gaps with grout like no one ever would
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop wasting your sentiment
Virginia, welcome home again
[Verse 3]
Welcome home, Virginia
Rest your worried little bones
No we cannot live a life so bon vivant
But we'll sleep in my cologne
[Verse 4]
Welcome home, Virginia
Hold me with an open mind
Whatever happens from this moment moving on
Happens in a distant kind
[Pre-Chorus]
Walking by through yesterday for so long
Makes you think that yesterday was so long
Watching people look okay for so long
Makes you think you look okay for so long
[Chorus]
Listen to me good and listen to me loud
If I'm understood then say it to me now
So, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop paying your sentiments
Virginia this is where we live
Give it to me loud but give it to me good
You fill my gaps with grout like no one ever would
So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop paying your sentiment
Virginia, welcome home again
Listen to me good and listen to me loud
If I'm understood then say it to me now
So, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop paying your sentiments
Virginia this is where we live
Give it to me loud but give it to me good
You fill my gaps with grout like no one ever would
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Stop paying your sentiment
Virginia, welcome home again
