Track Name: Unstoppable
High and low to the undertow
We must go, stay with me
They’ll never know the ebb and flow
Of these two souls, under flesh and bone

This girl is unstoppable, up your legs into another world
Kissin’ me so hard, touching every scar, stay with me

Love your eyes, love ‘em dry
You’re a live wire, with a perfect smile
Here we go again, never ends
Welcome home, we can just let go

This girl is unstoppable, up your legs into another world
Kissin’ me so hard, touching every scar, stay with me

This girl is unstoppable, up your legs into another world
Kissin’ me so hard, touching every scar, stay with me

If you don’t push away, we will find a way, hey

This girl is unstoppable, up your legs into another world
Kissing me so hard, now I’m seeing stars, stay with me

This girl is unstoppable, dizzy up into another world
Taking me so far, right into your arms, you’re changing me

It’s unstoppable [high and low]; It’s unbelievable [undertow]
It feels incredible [we must go], stay with me

So damn lovable, undeniable, I’m Insatiable, stay with me
Track Name: In Motion
Can’t catch a break in this small town, can’t be sure of the friends I have found
Don’t they notice I’m not around… to settle down?

Then all at once…my world started turning, I can release this burden now
Open up to a brand new person, you cannot slow this motion down

Pulled my money and sold the house, my guitar and a long drive south
Don’t they know I won’t back down; I’m in the lost and found


Then all at once…my world started turning, I can release these burdens now
Open up to a brand new person, you cannot slow this motion down

Now I have been changing lately, I’m as clean as the morning sun
I’ve been fighting and with you I’ve already…won

Then all at once…my world started turning, I can release these burdens now
Open up to a brand new person, you cannot slow this motion down
Then all the sudden…my world started turning, I can release these burdens now
Open up to a brand new person, you cannot slow this mother down

Can’t catch a break in this small town / can’t be sure of the friends I have found
Track Name: Love Survive And Drive
She was a waitress from the city with a BFA degree
He was an OEF soldier on temporary leave
They fell in love in a hatchback, kissed goodbye on the tarmac
He never came back

She was a drummer from California, just keeping the dream alive
A runaway in a rock back that never made it past 79
She fell in love with drugs, they shut it down and unplugged
She got sick in the lungs… now she’s gone

It’s a gift to love your life, chasing dreams like fireflies
Don’t waste your time asking why
The greatest act ever known, the getting up and letting go
Release your past life, say goodbye, love survive and drive

He was a homeless boy in Portland, living on broken dreams
Hoping for a turnaround, oh but aching for a drink
He didn’t know it was so bad, he’s locked up and there’s no man
That could take it away… and it’s a shame

It’s a gift to love your life, chasing dreams like fireflies
Don’t waste your time asking why
The greatest act ever known, the getting up and letting go
Release your past life, say goodbye, love survive and drive

On a Kansas farm in nowhere, they loved for 60 years
Pushed through summer’s hell, weathered winter’s fears
Bent by the sunlight, fighting the good fight
It’s the price they pay… everyday

It’s a gift to love your life, chasing dreams like fireflies
Don’t waste your time asking why
The greatest act ever known, the getting up and letting go
Release your past life, say goodbye, love survive and drive
Track Name: Birth Of A Lie
When the snow is on the ground
She feels the ghost all around, her sounds
It’s a pain; it’s a blank, paint a smile on her face
Push it down all the way

Although she never cried the day that it died
It bore a hole; she wore the guilt like a coat
And worse than goodbye was the birth of a lie
It bores a hole where the good stuff should go

The enemy infiltrates, lays down and violates
It pushes floodgates
Sleepless and tore enough, she crawls on the floor and then
She pulls the sun up

Although she never cried the day that it died
It bore a hole; she wore the guilt like a coat
And worse than goodbye was the birth of a lie
It bores a hole where the good stuff should go
Track Name: Be A Fine Girl
Black and blue, I like your tattoo
No, I don't think it defines you
No, I don't mind when you see about me
Do you think that I could call you?
I'm feeling weak cause I adore you
No, I don't mind in the night when it creeps...

You could be a fine girl and kiss me, not such a stranger
You could be a fine girl and kiss me, not such a stranger

An abundance of sunshine you hold
In the palm of your hand is my soul
And you carry the weight of my world
It's the way that you're moving in me
Hey, the stars they align just to see

The moxie it takes to be free
I'll miss you dearly, but I can't let you down
No, I won't let you down

You could be a fine girl and kiss me, not such a stranger
You could be a fine girl and kiss me, not such a stranger
You could be a fine girl; you could be a fine girl
You could be a fine girl and kiss me, not such a stranger
Track Name: Green
Did I wake you? I didn't mean to…
There is something that I just have to say
Hey I know you and I adore you
And I wouldn't want it any other way

See you in my dreams -You know, you're all I see… is green

Wouldn't know it, if I hit it
Wouldn't know what to do with it anyway
But I know you and I adore you
And I couldn't see it any other way

I'll see you in my dreams - You know, you're all I see… is green

She knows – She knows – She knows – She knows

Did I wake you? I didn't mean to…
There is something that I just have to say
Track Name: Best Kiss
Is it any wonder that I’m aching’ for you, in a crowded room?
We’ve been undercover and it’s making me sick, to have to bury it

I said darling please stay and don’t get on that plane…

Best kiss I never had was with you
Best love I never made was to you
The best smile I never gave was for you
With an ocean side view

Did you tell her about me? Maybe just silly things…
Did you tell your friends how the waves
Yeah, they crashed you into me… accidentally

I said darling please stay and don’t get on that plane…

Best kiss I never had was with you
Best love I never made was to you
The best smile I ever gave was for you
With an ocean side view

And are you still drawing those lines?
The ones we cross all the time
Do you like to hide me inside?
Darling, are you fighting the tide? Com’on

Best kiss I never had was with you
Best love I never made was to you
The best smile I ever gave was for you
With an ocean side view, with an ocean side view
With an ocean side view, with an ocean side view
Track Name: Left Behind
This wicked cold, winter's breathing down my back again
So let it snow, sing me song's of joy and peace, I hope...
There's enough of me tonight - Another year, another fight

I'm the one you left behind, the one you try to fight, the one you try and hide

Incredibly late, you said your head was spinning now
Why don't you stay, sleep on the love seat...it pulls out
Is there enough of you tonight, to make it to the morning light

I'm the one you left behind, the one you try to fight, the one you try and hide
I'm the one you left behind, the one you sacrifice, the one you try and hide

Now I can't stop shaking (when you, when you, when you are around)
No, it won't stop aching, until you come home with me tonight

I'm the one you left behind, the one you tried to fight, the one you try and hide
I'm the one you left behind, the one you sacrifice, to one you try and hide
Track Name: Clementine
Open up the sky, you fall – no, I never felt so raw
I try to be still and be cool - like a tattoo,
I'm wrapped around you like a crazy fool

I won't be denied, Clementine - I'll do just fine
Even when I'm crying, I'm smiling

Just enough to roll the dice - tell you the truth, I lied
I recall all you said - like a tattoo,
Wrapped around you like a crazy kid

I won't be denied, Clementine - I'll do just fine
Even when I'm crying, I'm smiling
Even when I'm crying, I'm smiling

I won't be denied, Clementine - I'll do just fine, Clementine
I won't be denied, Clementine - I'll do just fine…
Even when I'm crying, I'm smiling
Yeah, even when I'm crying, I'm smiling
Track Name: Swallow The Sunshine
I have walked to the edge, shouldered demons aside
I have been so broken down at times I thought I would die
I have swam with obsessions, wrestled unearthly tides
Touched by her mercy, washed up on the shore side

That was the best day of my life, swallow the sunshine
I harbor every single light and swallow the sunshine

I was singing for supper when she walked in the room
Something so familiar and I thought it was you
We talked of forgiveness and we talked about us
Touched by her mercy, washed clean in her love

That was the best day of my life, swallow the sunshine
I harbor every single light and swallow the sunshine, swallow the sunshine

[Do you remember the day?] Yes, I’m never gonna be that bad, every day I think about it
[Would you step up to the plate?] I’m rising like a phoenix coming up from the ash…

Oh, I know what I know, what I know
And every day I sing about it
Yeah, I know what I know, what I know

That was the best day of my life, swallow the sunshine
I harbor every single light and swallow the sunshine
That was the best day of my life, swallow the sunshine
I harbor every single smile and swallow the sunshine
Track Name: Push Pull
I don't know where I'll sleep…on this sixties couch
Hey, yeah that's fine with me
Wake up you, I still can't sleep
Rob, I don't know where she is…that's where I want to be

I saved it all up for a rainy day - this time I think it's gonna pour
(this time it's gonna pour)
I gave it up, I gave it anyway - and hiked my bags up to your door

Would you push pull? Would you push pull?

And I'm never going to run, I'm never going to weep
You were with me here til' the end of it, and I cannot see…
How you're ever gonna fall, When you're standing with me
You're an open book in an empty world, and it’s wounding me

I saved it all up for a rainy day - this time I think it's gonna pour
(this time it's gonna pour)
I gave it up, I gave it anyway - and hiked my bags up to your door
Would you push pull? Would you push pull?

I saved it all up for a rainy day - this time I think it's gonna pour
(this time it's gonna pour)
I gave it up, I gave it anyway - and hiked my bags up to your door
Would you push pull? Would you push pull? Would you push pull?
Would you push pull? It was you, always you, it was you...
Track Name: Color Of Stars
over and over, we turn this thing around
We are a little older, young enough to count
The storms coming and we’re running…

We change like the color of stars, burn and we fade, collapse where we are
Change like the color of stars, we burn so bright to fall through the dark

Closer and closer, our best is yet to be
You are so patiently aching to be free
The storms coming and we’re running…

We change like the color of stars, burn and we fade, collapse where we are
Change like the color of stars, we burn so bright to fall through the dark

The color of stars

The storms coming and we’re running

We change like the color of stars, burn and we fade, collapse where we are
Change like the color of stars, we burn so bright to fall through the dark

High and low to the undertow
We must go, stay with me

Of these two souls, under flesh and bone

It feels incredible [we must go], stay with me

So damn lovable, undeniable, I’m Insatiable, stay with me
