Sing Along Song

As I'm riding in my car
Radio blasting
Nothing's on
Just the same ol' same ol' same ol' something
Singing, shouting, hoping you will make your presence known
I can't hear you, I would be content to just hum along
No one's stopping me cause
I am all alone
And I'm right there with you
Helping you to sing this song
All night
Sing it
Shout it
All the words I've worked into this song
I can't
Hear you
I could be the one to just hum along
And you could be the one to sing along
Or I could sing it with you
Now I want to be the star
That you're listening to there
In your car
And you're strumming with your air guitar and
Singing, shouting, knowing that you were the one to
Give me, fire, and you will raise your fist into the air
And no one's stopping you cause
You are all alone
And you're right there with me
Helping me to sing this song
All night
Sing it
Shout it
All the words I've worked into this song
I can't
Hear you
I could be the one to just hum along
And you could be the one to sing along
Or I could sing it with you
Oh
I can sing it
Oh
I can shout it now
Sing it
Shout it
All the words I've worked into this song
I can't
Hear you
I could be the one to just hum along
And you will be the one to sing along

The Road
02:30

thinking of a warm summer's day
how I wish I could go
and all the games we would play
out where no one would know
and all the things you would say
while your face it would glow
reading Ernest Hemingway
by the side of the road
and all the times we would kiss
your mouth like a rose
taste of cherry on your lips
little kiss on your nose
and it's those times that I miss
but you know how it goes
when your parents got pissed
and we took to the road
now I'm staring
at these cracks in the road
like our lifetimes
as we quickly grow old
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
hold my head up and laugh
smile and throw on some clothes
fill the car full of gas
stroke some paint on your toes
stand and fold up the map
no one knows where you'll go
leaving on a warm summer's day
as we sail down the road

Disconnected

well I call the operator
to connect me to your line
will she tell me all your secrets
gathered over time
I don't know another number
I don't know if one exists
but I know your hearts unlisted
disconnected from your lips
and no one's on the line
it's busy all the time
I don't know the operator
I don't even know the time
but she's got me disconnected
on a phone that isn't
isn't mine
now I'm driving down the highway
just past 59
and I'm looking for an exit
and reading hotel signs
then I drive up to a payphone
with a quarter and a dime
and I ask the operator
connect me one more time
and no one's on the line
it's busy all the time
I don't know the operator
I don't even know the time
but she's got me disconnected
on a phone that isn't
isn't mine
I don't know the operator
I don't even know the time
but she's got me disconnected
on a phone that isn't mine

At the Movies

If I ever woke up and
Our lives were like a movie
I'd write the script by hand
Line by line
I'd see you at the show
(with a) popcorn and a coke
And I would see you smile my way
Action I started
Roll the film your way
Staring at that pretty face I casted and I'd say
Write our selves a love scene that would never end
Cut, print, roll it to the end
If a villain came along
To woo you with his song
I take my sword and slay him
The score begins to build
They're playing our theme song
The choir sings along
and the crowd begins to cheer
Action I started
Roll the film your way
Staring at that pretty face I casted and I'd say
Write our selves a love scene that would never end
Cut, print, roll it to the end

Goodbye
03:23

If I seem a little strange
That's because I am
No one left to blame
I never gave a damn
Friends come and go
Seasons change
But I'll let them know
I won't forget their names
See the years pass me by
No more tears left to cry
Singing songs about the rain
No one got it anyway
So now I say goodbye
Saw a friend the other day
Just wasn't the same
Nothing left to say
It's funny how things change
But life goes on
Growing up
And our faces change
Forever growing old
See the years pass me by
No more tears left to cry
Singing songs about the rain
No one got it anyway
So now I say goodbye
Brian, Michae,l David, Christy, Leslie left their mark on me
Someone's on a plane to someplace I don't think I'll ever see
If I could
Yes I would
Pack my bags
Go on with you
Got my coat
Got my map
On the way
Going with you
See the years pass me by
No more tears left to cry
Singing songs about the rain
No one got it anyway
So now I say goodbye
