Find Love and you’ll find the rest of me Doubt’s thick and it’s gettin tough to see But if you look through it, It’s a possibility My phone keeps a buzzin Why do all these people try to get ahold of me Can’t the wheelin public try to stop and see All I wanna do is get down So don’t you come around Unless you are prepared to take a deep breath, Smile as if the coming of us all together can be reality But can we really see? Find Love and you’ll find the rest of me Doubt’s thick and it’s gettin tough to see But if you look through it, It’s a possibility Will the train be comin We’ve been waiting on the platform for an hour or two We’re getting angry and I wanna sue the soles who are responsible For puttin all these strangers up into my atmosphere But are we really here? Find Love and you’ll find the rest of me Doubt’s thick and it’s gettin tough to see But if you look through it, It’s a possibility

Florence is slowly getting used to Humboldt But she still flinches with each shadow on North Avenue Now she is cuddled close to Daddy and Piano She doesn’t seem so sorry that there’s not much else to do Does she miss her old family While she happily begs from me Does she recall her time in jail How could old Florence be for sale What is a bloodhound like that doing in the city The booze and dope fiends on the corner always say hello Everyone’s always sure to tell her that she’s pretty Despite her English skills she always seems to know Walking the block can seem a pain Especially in October rain But when she looks at me and smiles I know she loves me all the while Florence is slowly getting used to Humboldt But she still flinches with each shadow on North Avenue Now she is cuddled close to Daddy and Piano She doesn’t seem so sorry that there’s not much else to do

Ginny what did you go make that deal for Settle down and life might be a real bore I might never figure what you’re after You don’t seem to stress about the answer You always seem to find love easy No matter how hard But it finally found you Although life might not always be breezy You gave your heart and in it you’ll find all you need to Ginny think when we were back in Clevetown We were witnesses to both ups and downs I remember all the broken hearted I must admit I picked up where you started You always seem to find love easy No matter how hard But it finally found you Although life might not always be breezy You gave your heart and in it you’ll find all you need to Ginny don’t you know I look up to you Lately I’m not sure what I am to do I’m excited as a brother can be Can you reveal that he will make you happy You always seem to find love easy No matter how hard But it finally found you Although life might not always be breezy You gave your heart and in it you’ll find all you need to

In the city you can feel the street Dirt can get to feel good at your feet So you just redefine clean People here don’t tell you who you are When you need to hide out in a bar You’re a star in good company You can be just who you are If you wanna be In the city everyone gets lost Either you are bossing or are bossed You get tossed in the pile with me What crooked paths we will cross When we love the city Hey look now, I am cool Dontcha think? I don’t need no school Just a pad and ink And all the trouble I find Is just fuel for the imaginative mind Stuck in a dream In the city you can feel the street Dirt can get to feel good at your feet So you just redefine clean

Back to You 03:52
Will you come to me I can promise you everything you need If we happen to be misled by greed Then I’ll come back to you Am I not enough Someday you’ll know that nothing else is real We’ll begin to accept all that we feel And I’ll come back to you It’s true I don’t know what to do Sometimes We’re new Always and then I’ll come back to you Do you like it here I know you say your fingers are still cold You’re mind tells you that we’re both getting old So I’ll come back to you Now we’re looking west I can follow the hard gaze of your eyes You deserve to live under clearer skies And I think I do too It’s true I don’t know what to do Sometimes We’re new Always and then I’ll come back to you The days go by And where am I When life is through Can I still come to you Will you come to me I can promise you everything you need If we happen to be misled by greed Then I’ll come back to you

Michelle 04:25
I’m feeling like it’s Friday afternoon I’ll have a Blue Moon Puff, kick back as if I’ve got nothin to do The sun is creepin through the cracks above And I am in love Life can’t knock me even with a steady shove It’s true – I can live without you But I don’t live very well Far as I can tell But all I can say’s “Michelle you might as well just live with me” Yesterday you did not know my name Each day was the same I was singing to myself and yet you came Finding me was not so hard to do Or did I find you in the process of loosening my shoes It’s true – I can live without you But I don’t live very well Far as I can tell But all I can say’s “Michelle you might as well just live with me” So if you are in the mood for me Just let your love free And you’ll find that we can live in simplicity Well I have not been known to bet But if you just let love be love, I think you’ll see we’ll both be set It’s true – I can live without you But I don’t live very well Far as I can tell But all I can say’s “Michelle you might as well just live with me”

Black Dress 03:47
I wandered into you Unaware Half-way across the room You caught my stare Backstage was full of “Joe’s” I don’t care That night you let me know I’d follow you anywhere you go “Come sit here next to me” You show no doubt I couldn’t disagree We’d just gone out I left Chi-town to find Your sweet mouth I found no peace of mind Only clearer shouts The drama became thick As Johnny-Cat and I indulged Oh it did surely kick My eye-lids bulged The heat began to hit I must confess My bottom lip I bit When you put on that black dress

Just a Crush 03:23
Do I believe that I am somewhere Can I conceive that no one does care Does there exist a place where I can just retreat to When the only place I wanna be is near you This may be just a crush I never wanted this much And I forget all of my worries when you look at me I am young now and you are older You are young at heart and I am colder And I am not as immature as you may see me I just can’t help that with you is all I want to be This may be just a crush I never expected so much And I forget all of my troubles when you look at me Is my dream within the realm of my reach Do I seem over the earth or beneath Come with me to a place I don’t know Could this be real or is it just another show So come with me on a journey I wonder if in my life I’ll ever stop learning And now I finally can begin to see the real me Something tells me that with you I’ll find my destiny This may be just a crush I never imagined this much And you can make me feel amazing when you look at me.

Hope Ahead 04:01
There was a girl that I thought I knew I thought she thought she knew what to do We were happy But then it turned out we did not know That sometimes all we can do is grow And all of a sudden there is finally hope ahead We mix a little love with travel to get it right And all of a sudden we sought humility instead After we found pain we found we were alright There we were playing our selfish games As we kept saying to weightless names “I think I love you” And soon thereafter we’d realize Again we’d fallen for our own disguise And all of a sudden there is finally hope ahead We mix a little love with travel to get it right And all of a sudden we sought humility instead After we found pain we found we were alright Where is the past now, what did they say I don’t remember that much today But I know that A life is only good as it is And if we’re lucky we’ll have troubled kids

On Me 03:29
I’m sick of writing about drugs and alcohol But now I’m left with nothing to write at all So I’ll make up a simple melody As I have one more drink on me I’m sick of musing upon all the lovers past There’s no more using that trick ‘cause now I’ve got a love that I know will last But a singer must at least have a melody So I smile as I sing for me Kids you shouldn’t get high ‘Cause everyone knows it’s bad But know you can rely On the fact that we’re all sad If you ever get by The eye of your good dad Then you really might try To fly I’ve never been one to make a stand I’ve always done my best at hiding my hand All I ever really wanna do is make a melody While you all have a drink on me Just have one more drink on me
