Run 04:11
When you were young you learned you could go fast Pounding the pavement, every recess Step after step foot follows foot The streets and the alleyways of your neighborhood You were chasing the beat of your heart and the feeling When you run... When we fell in love You made me dizzy I almost couldn’t keep up, but that was part of the mystery And now the mystery is gone But the feeling is stronger Mile after mile, day after day You know the road just gets longer But you make me remember the thrill of the chase And my racing heart When you run..... Oh and in my dreams at night, you’re racing ahead of me And in my dreams at night, I’m part of the scenery Am I in your way? I always wonder If I’m slowing you down When we’re together We got stuck in a life On tracks and on treadmills It doesn’t matter if you’re the fastest If you’re running in circles And I watch you as you lace up your shoes Knowing someday soon You’re gonna run...

Love Letter 04:17
You wrote me once, Pen & ink, so old-fashioned And I hear your voice When I read the words dancing on the page You love me still Out of mind, out of body And I hear your voice Come inside, come in singing from the rain You are the nouns, And the verbs, and the adjectives. And I am the voice Making time to repeat them all the day You are the sun, And the stars in their courses. And I am the earth, So in love with her orbit through space

Diving 05:00
Sometimes, in a night, you meet someone you like and you think The world’s glowing up in a shimmering haze of what could be And last night I met you, and I liked the way you looked at my face All the lights mixed with drinks mixed with people in the right kind of place Possibilities Am I diving too deep? Honey, I’ve been alone my whole life, and I don’t think that will change Tied to our own bodies, mind circling back to our own pain So, it’s a magical night that takes me out of my own life and shakes - And you seem so kind, honey, we could pass the time until it breaks Sometimes, in a night, you meet someone you like and you think A friend of a friend of a friend visiting your city And I liked the way you looked and I liked the way you talked And I like the way you smiled, and I wanted us to walk Hand in hand out of that bar, into the rest of our lives But sometimes it’s just a night Sometimes it’s just a night Nothing lasts forever But while it lasts, I want to dive under
