Love in Lo-Fi

Falling in love in lo-fi
Plugging me in to the hard line
We’ve been dancing on the edge of town
When no one’s around
Falling in love in lo-fi
I’ve got the feeling that I’m running underwater
I can’t catch my breath
I’ve got the feeling that we’re gunning for each other
With all that we have left
I’ve got the feeling that we’re running for the covers
Feet don’t fail me yet
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that I’m running underwater
I can’t catch my breath
I’ve got the feeling that we’re gunning for each other
With all that we have left
I’ve got the feeling that we’re running for the covers
Feet don’t fail me yet
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
Falling asleep beneath the red sky
Holding you in a digital lie
We’ve been dreaming on the edge of town
When no one’s around
Falling in love until the next time
I’ve got the feeling that I’m running underwater
I can’t catch my breath
I’ve got the feeling that we’re gunning for each other
With all that we have left
I’ve got the feeling that we’re running for the covers
Feet don’t fail me yet
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that I’m running underwater
I can’t catch my breath
I’ve got the feeling that we’re gunning for each other
With all that we have left
I’ve got the feeling that we’re running for the covers
Feet don’t fail me yet
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
I’ve got the feeling that it’s gonna happen
You are all that I, I can see (Falling in love)
Won’t you fall asleep next to me (It’s gonna happen)
When I close my eyes all I need (Falling in love)
Is to know this night’s not a dream

Falling
03:04

I think I’m falling
I think it’s been a good night
Hoping this won’t be the last time
That you turn up in my life
And I’m wondering if you feel the way I feel
I’m done with being solo
Sick and tired of this halo
If you want it then just say so
You got me wondering if this feeling is for real
I’ve tried to figure out
What this fever is inside
I’m burning up
But there’s no rhyme or reason
I can’t get enough
The pressure’s rising and I’ve got to let you know
To let you know
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling for ya
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling for ya
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you
I think I’m falling
I think I’m falling
Take me back to your place
Cause your kiss is all that I crave
Oh yeah
This ain’t no mistake
I’m here aching for some time alone with you
I’ve tried to figure out
What this fever is inside
I’m burning up
But there’s no rhyme or reason
I can’t get enough
The pressure’s rising and I’ve got to let you know
To let you know
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling for ya
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling for ya
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you
I think I’m falling
Think I’m falling falling falling falling
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you
Maybe it’s in the way you move
I think I’m falling
Maybe I’ve had a drink or two
But I think I’m falling for you

Circles
03:06
|

La la la la la la
You ran the red light
Crashed right into my heart
Let you under my skin
Now I’m falling apart
You leave me unseen
Just for the sake of the chase
Always ten steps ahead
I can’t keep up with the pace now
Cause I want your body
I want it so bad
What game are we playing (what game are we playing)
We’re running in circles
And it makes me so mad
It makes me so mad
You know that you’re leaving your mark
I keep my hands to myself even though it’s so hard
And I get so confused
With you calling me baby
It’s making me crazy
Then you walk right by me
As if to pacify me
Or satisfy my need to get by
Lookin’ at me like you want so much more
Drunk and letting me fall
With no help off of the floor
Cause I got your number
But you never pick up the phone
What game are we playing
I don’t think I can do this
We’re running in circles
And it makes me so mad
It makes me so mad
You know that you’re leaving your mark
I keep my hands to myself even though it’s so hard
And I get so confused
With you calling me baby
It’s making me crazy
You know that you’re leaving your mark
I keep my hands to myself even though it’s so hard
And I get so confused
When you hold me
And you’re calling me baby
It’s making me crazy
(I want it, want it, want it)
(I want it) So bad
(I-I-I want it, want it, want it)
I get so dizzy
Running round in circles
Running round in circles babe
Running round in circles (Want it, want it)
I get so dizzy
I get so dizzy
Oh
I get so dizzy
Running round in circles
Running round in circles babe
Running round in circles
I get so dizzy yeah

Long Way
02:18
|

Say what you need to say
I’ve got the back of your mind hanging over my head
Your words they cling like cellophane
But I can't stay
Or get away
Sometimes I need to escape
But I’m still sleeping with the enemy
And I don’t need the heartache
I’ve been here before and I’ve seen too much
We’ve come a long way
From where we were when we were young
Tried to hold on to what was right
But some day
You never know when it may come
You can lean hard
But don’t put your life on it
Don’t put your life
Don’t put your life on it
Don’t put your life
Took a lot for granted
When we thought that it was destiny
Always heard that true love
Would be the one thing that could set me free
But when I’m around you
I can hear the whole world and it’s calling me
Wish we knew what love really means
Now listen to me baby
We both know people change
I can’t promise you forever
But at least we can say
We’ve come a long way
We’ve come a long way
From where we were when we were young
Tried to hold on to what was right
But some day
You never know when it may come
You can lean hard
But don’t put your life on it (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Oooh)
We’ve come a long way
We’ve come a long way
But someday
You never know when it may come
You can lean hard
But don’t put your life on it

Forget Me Not
03:03
|
|||
I’m not perfect
But I’m worth it
So I’m working
On my courage up to love again
Light the fire
Start the clock
Forget me not
Don’t forget me not
I don’t regret
All these feelings
If it’s a secret
I can’t keep it to myself any more
Strike the iron while it’s hot
Forget me not
Don’t forget me not
Cold feet
They move a little closer
Heart beating
I wanna hold you again
Eyes meet
Across an ocean
Of words we never said
Of words we left unsaid
You’ve got your demons
You can lay them all on me
And I’ll keep ‘em
Fight ‘em when you’re feeling weak
Won’t get caught up
In knowing I might bleed
All I really want is next to me
Cold feet
They move a little closer
Heart beating
I wanna hold you again
Eyes meet
Across an ocean
Of words we never said
Of words we left unsaid
Cold feet
They move a little closer
Heart beating
I wanna hold you again
Eyes meet
Across an ocean
Of words we never said
Of words we left unsaid
These words we left unsaid
Shoulda coulda wouldas
They will define you
Don’t be left unsaid
Cause you don’t know what you want ‘til you got it
You don’t know ‘til it goes what you got
You don’t know what you need ‘til it needs you
Forget me forget me not
You don’t know what you want ‘til you got it
You don’t know ‘til it goes what you got
You don’t know what you love ‘til it leaves you
Forget me forget me not
Forget me not
Keep you around forever
Keep you around
Forget me not
Keep you around forever
Keep you around
Eyes meet across an ocean
Of words we’ve never said
Of words we’ve left unsaid

Sleepwalking
03:32
|
|||
I’m too tired to fight
Tired of lying down without you
There’s a ghost in the place
Of the shape you make here by my side
With stars in my eyes
Starting to climb high without you
Awake in a dream
You don’t need to say you’ll love me
You don't need to stay ‘til’ we makeup
I just wanna find that feeling baby
I just wanna start the game we played again
Sleepwalking ‘til the music is over
Sleepwalking ‘til the beat it stops
You don’t need to say you’ll love me
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up
Walking on air
Never a care so long as I’m with you
Every step that I make
Would be a mistake if it’s not by your side
Now that we’re here
All that I fear is living without you
Awake in a dream
You don’t need to say you love me
You don't need to stay ‘til we makeup
I just wanna find that feeling baby (Wanna find that feeling)
I just wanna start the game we played again
Sleepwalking ‘til the music is over
Sleepwalking ‘til the beat it stops
You don’t need to say you’ll love me
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up
Sleepwalking ‘til the music is over
Sleepwalking ‘til the beat it stops
(You don’t really need to say you’ll love me)
You just need to stay ‘til we wake up

High
03:50
|
|||
Who are you to make me play out the victim
I wear your lies like a wedding dress baby
All blue and borrowed
‘Til you take me there again
And I lose it all
I can't find peace
In the dark
In the cold dark of your room
Ten messages
And I’m your fool again
No explanation
Just tell me why
I’ve been fighting for a heart
That was never mine
Give me a reason
Or give me a light
If you’re gonna let me down
I wanna get high
I wanna get high
How do you do it
Flip a coin and call us off like that
Shut down and tongue tied
I reach for you
You turn your back
Wasting my life
Wondering what’s behind those bloodshot eyes
And when the smoke clears
I’m by myself
It’s no surprise
No explanation
Just tell me why
I’ve been fighting for a heart
That was never mine
Give me a reason
Or give me a light
If you’re gonna let me down
I wanna get high
I wanna get high (I-I-I-I)
High (I-I-I-I)
High (I-I-I-I, I-I-I)
And I’ll roll one for ya
Cause I know it’s over
I’ve never been one for long goodbyes
I can still remember
When things were better
We can just pretend for one more night
And I’ll roll one for ya
Cause I know it’s over
I’ve never been one for long goodbyes
I can still remember
When things were better
We can just pretend for one more night
And I’ll roll one for ya

Alone
03:44
|
|||
I tried to be honest
And say my peace
While all my fears paraded at my feet
I turn on the TV
To drown out the sound
But it my heart
I hear it screaming just as loud
We live in a small world
That tears everybody down
And I know
All I have is now
To say
If we were together would it ever really end
Oh
Don’t you sit here telling me
How we could be just friends
And I ache most of the time
When will you call
I never know
Oh
Don’t you leave me alone
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me alone
Spend all my time worried I’m losing myself
Thinking I should be like someone else
Then maybe you’d miss me
When I’m not around
I wish that you would figure yourself out
And I try to tell you
I do (I do, I do)
But the words won’t leave my mouth
And I know who I am
But if we were together would it ever really end
Oh
Don’t you sit here telling me
How we could be just friends
And I ache most of the time
When will you call I never know
Oh
Don’t you leave me alone
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me alone
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me alone
And all I have are photographs
A sacred flash in time
The pixelated aftermath
Of what we can’t deny
And with it comes anxieties
A hope you’ll say it first
I’m losing sleep
And I can’t breathe
My mind, my thoughts, my curse
Will you stay?
Take my world apart
Leave me in the dark
Take my world apart
Leave me in the dark
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me now
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t you leave me alone
(Don’t leave me now)
Don’t cha, don’t cha
(Leave me in the dark)
Don’t cha leave me now
(Don’t cha, don’t cha)
Don’t cha, don’t cha
Don’t cha leave me alone
Take my world apart
Leave me in the dark

Tear My Heart Out
03:36
|

How could you be so could you be so cold
Did you think I did you think I wouldn't know
Well, I can see his face every time I look into your eyes
So I’ll just brace for the fallout fallout
It’s just a matter of time
Cause if this is what I get for loving you faithfully
You’re not the one I wanted
You’re not the one I needed yeah yeah
Oh and falling on my knees
It won’t happen gracefully
So finish what you started
Finish what you started and tear my heart out
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Finish what you started
I said, come on, come on, come on, come on
Finish what you started yeah
How could you be so could you be so cold
You never held on now you can’t let it go
But there’s no saving face if all you ever do is tell me lies
You want to scream until we fall down, fall down
But I’m through wasting my time
Cause if this is what I get for loving you faithfully
You’re not the one I wanted
You’re not the one I needed yeah yeah
Oh and falling on my knees
It won’t happen gracefully
So finish what you started
Finish what you started and tear my heart out
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Finish what you started
I said, come on, come on, come on, come on
Finish what you started yeah
Coulda been right
Woulda been nice
Should’ve been beautiful

Finish what you started
And tear my heart out
Coulda been right
Woulda been nice
Should’ve been beautiful
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Coulda been right
Woulda been nice
Should’ve been beautiful
Come on, come on, come on
Tear my heart out

Dancing While I Cry
02:52
|
|||
I miss the backseat of your car
The smell of smoke from your cigar
The city lights shined like the stars
Back when I was in your arms
Then I sense it creep in
That sinking feeling
That I may be lonely all my life
But I should know better
And now that I’ve met her
I need to let you go tonight
Turn the music on
Let all my mascara run
Dancing while I cry
Let the rhythm dry my eyes
It’s not been fun
Now that I know you’ve got someone
But they’re playing our song
The night goes on the drinks get stronger
One for me one in your honor
These sequins are my superpower
Still shining through my darkest hour
Then I sense it creep in
That sinking feeling
That I may never be quite alright
But I should know better
And now that you’re together
I need to let this go tonight
Turn the music on
Let all my mascara run
Dancing while I cry
Let the rhythm dry my eyes
It’s not been fun
Now that I know you’ve got someone
But they’re playing our song
If I keep groovin’
All my pain may disappear, oh
It’s final call and once the lights come on
I’ll shed you instead of all these tears
I keep on dancing
I keep on dancing
I keep on dancing (dancing, dancing)
Baby it’s fine
Gotta feel that pain
Just let the beat carry you away
It’ll take time and a lot of strength
But you will be okay
It’s fine
Gotta feel that pain
Just let the beat carry you away
It’ll take time and a lot of strength
But you will be okay

Don't Fade

Lost
Searching for peace
With nowhere left for you to go
Gone
Was it all just a dream
Sometimes I think we’ll never know
And it feels like it’s forever
But tomorrow never comes
And there maybe days you feel like giving up
But
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say you’re better off on your own
Heartbreaks
Mistakes
You give it all
Or you give it up then it’s gone
We’ve come too far just to give in
Life’s not for the faint if it’s worth living
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say you’re better off on your own
Hope
Stay here with me
Too many hearts have grown so cold
Love
It’s still all that we need
Just hold on tight
I won’t let go
Cause you know it’s now or never
If the best is yet to come
And I know you wanna run and hide
But the battles you’ve fought are the battles you’ve won
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say you’re better off on your own
Heartbreaks
Mistakes
You give it all or you give it up then it’s gone
We’ve come too far just to give in
Life’s not for the faint if it’s worth living
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say you’re better off on your own
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say
Heartbreaks
Mistakes
You give it all
Or you give it up then it’s gone
We’ve come too far just to give in
Life’s not for the faint if it’s worth living
Don’t go
Don’t fade
Don’t say you’re better off on your own
