Lyrics:
I'm getting used to the sound of me
All tripped up and fumbling
Picking words from that lovely stream
Of all the things that you mean to me
Cause it hurts
Oh it hurts to like you so much

How to thank the earth for you
The eyes the smile the wisdom too
You're all good things thrown into one
You put the flowers on my tongue that say
Yes I love you this way

And there's so much that I should tell you
And there's so much that you should see
So many "Keep out: heart bound" places
You belong in me

I'm getting used to the sound of you
Volleying back this feeling too
Tasting all the things I wished
Waiting in that lovely kiss with you
Where there's no hiding the truth

And how you treat me like a queen
Like when I said my eyes were swampy green
And I saw you smile and I heard you say
"If your eyes are swamps, they're the Everglades"
And that you love them that way.

Sometimes it's hard for me to tell you
What is harder still to hide
And so I hold tight stay trite and never let my heart decide

But despite my fear
I've got no way of stoppin'
The sound of you from breaking through
The static in my mind
And I just won't hear
Another word of caution
I know it's dangerous
To love like us
But I feel safe enough in the sound of you

I remember how it used to feel
To try to make indifference real
To weed out love so skillfully
That you would never get to see
The flag that you were sticking in my heart those days

I knew gravity would get to me
And I'd be yours eventually
But never dreamed it could be so sweet
Watching you just talk to me
At night, when the city lights were burning outside

Sometimes it's hard for me tell you
But I'll tell you
Cause I know you sympathize
When I hold tight, stay trite, and just can't let my heart decide

(Chorus)

[FunNotNuts]

That was a lovely song. I would have liked the singer to be more pronounced. The guitar in the background more so we can hear what she sings. Other than that it was perfect.

Don't stop :)

[jwwetzel]

Did you listen in high quality? If it plays in mono, it won't be balanced very well :(

[FunNotNuts]

Yes I have a very good sound system to the point where I prefer it over my large stereo system. Nevermind. You two are wonderful!

[jwwetzel]

ohh no no, I mean, there's the high quality button on the video player itself, it says "HQ". Youtube creates two compressions of the audio, one in mono, and one in stereo, so you may have listened to it in mono, in which case it wouldn't have been balanced very well.

[5t34l7h9]

you got some style there boy....and shes a peach...so you should link back up with her and go around....that way you will both appeal to different much wider audience of young people...i can see you have some creative difference...if you both compromise it could be more rewarding for you both in music...besides she could use your help and deserves it...try it new...

[lsfbdude]

the insights in your lyrics really stike a chord with my experiences. My fav song by u

[1971SuperLead]

Wow, I really like this girl. She's so authentic and earthy.

[msjulicious]

i wish i could play guitar. i have so many poems that i wish i could put into song. 

[MrDocVenture]

Very nice song, well performed, keep on keepin' on!

[Raphtor13]

Still love this one..I have listened to it more times than I can count. You two should do a couple more collabs.

[BlackAttack368]

Beautiful song, but why do you wearing this blue thing? :)

[baultrock]

made the baultrock 10,000-100,000 list :D

[Lisenertheband]

It reminds me the sound of Travis (one of my favourite bands)... Just the music, not the lyrics.

Awe that was so good [thumbs up to awesome songs created by the heart]. I wish I could record a good video for some of my songs but my camera is kind of poopy =P
