I saw the sign or an omen
On the branches, in the morning
It was right after I
Lost a friend without warning
Words unsaid
Scarlet-red
Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you tellin' me I'm on somebody's mind?
Don't leave me behind
I took a walk in the city
To clear my head for a moment
Turned my collar to the wind
On the street, it was blowin'
And there he was
Above my head
Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you tellin' me I'm on somebody's mind?
Don't leave me behind
Are you just watching and waiting for spring?
Do you have some kind of magic to bring? (Pretty bird)
Are you just watching and waiting for spring?
Do you have some kind of magic to bring? (Pretty bird)
Are you just watching and waiting for spring?
Do you have some kind of magic?
Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you tellin' me I'm on somebody's mind?
Cardinal
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?
Cardinal
Are you tellin' me I'm on somebody's mind?
Are you bringing me a message from the other side?

Deeper Well
My Saturn has returned
When I turned twenty-seven
Everything started to change
Took a long time, but I learned
There's two kinds of people, one is a giver
And one's always tryin' to take
All they can take
So I'm sayin' goodbye to the people
That I feel are real good at wastin' my time
No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe
You go your way and I'll go mine
It's been a real good time
But you got dark energy, somethin' I can't unsee
And I've got to take care of myself
I found a deeper well
I used to wake and bake
Roll out of bed, hit the gravity bong that I made
And start the day
For a while, it got me by
Everything I did seemed better when I was high
I don't know why
So I'm gettin' rid of the habits that I feel
Are real good at wastin' my time
No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe
It's natural when things lose their shine
So other things can glow
I've gotten older now, I know
How to take care of myself
I found a deeper well
Mm
When I was growing up
We had what we needed, shoes on our feet
But the world was as flat as a plate
And that's okay
The things I was taught only took me so far
Had to figure the rest out myself
And then I found
I found a deeper well
Mm

Too Good to Be True
Made some breakfast, made some love
This is what dreams are made of
On a cloudy Monday morning
Summer's gone and you're still here
For both of us, it's been a year
A tidal wave without a warning
Please don't make me regret
Openin' up that part of myself
That I've been scared to give again
Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true
In my mind, we're in New York
You had never been before
But, baby, now it's our town
I'll admit that I'm in deep
That I don't know how else to be
And I don't wanna slow down
Please don't make me regret
Openin' up that part of myself
That I've been scared to give again
Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true
Oh, mm
Ooh, mm
Made some breakfast, made some love
If this is what dreams are made of
Please don't wake me
This is what dreams are made of
On a cloudy Monday morning
Summer's gone and you're still here
For both of us, it's been a year
A tidal wave without a warning
Please don't make me regret
Openin' up that part of myself
That I've been scared to give again
Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true
In my mind, we're in New York
You had never been before
But, baby, now it's our town
I'll admit that I'm in deep
That I don't know how else to be
And I don't wanna slow down

Openin' up that part of myself

Be good to me and I'll be good to you
But please don't be too good to be true
Oh, mm
Ooh, mm
Made some breakfast, made some love
If this is what dreams are made of
Please don't wake me

Moving Out
Four walls and so much space
Was way more than just a place
Wasn't it, babe?
A bedroom where you pulled me in
I found out love could start again
Start again
And that big tree in the front yard lost a limb
It almost crushed your car, but it didn't
Yeah, we kept livin' in the house
Plantin' roses all around
Leavin' it better than we found it
Now autumn's movin' in
And we're movin' out
Mm
Remember I still wore that dress
The Christmas that we all got sick
And partied anyway?
I had a break-up, and then I bought it
You always said it might be hard
And I think you're right
A couple of real big fights that we had
I cried, but it was hard to stay mad
We had good times, can't deny it
And even though I feel excited
I'm kinda sad we're leavin'
Now that autumn's movin' in
And we're movin' out
We're movin' out
Mm
Was way more than just a place
Wasn't it, babe?
A bedroom where you pulled me in

Giver / Taker
Sundown and I'm lonely in this house
It's feeling one-dimensional to me
We've been tryin' hard to figure out
Give and take and how to be
But don't you see?
I would give you everything that you wanted
And I would never ask for any of it back
And if I could take only as much as I needed
I would take everything you had
Sunrise and you're lying next to me
Wrap me in your arms like I'm made of glass
I need all your love, not just one piece
Hopin' that it ain't too much for me to ask
'Cause I would give you everything that you wanted
But I would never ask for any of it back
And if I could take only as much as I needed
I would take everything you had
Don't wanna share, I want it all all of the time
Tell me right now you feel the same and that you're mine
Baby, don't you know I'd give you everything that you wanted (give you everything)
And I would never ask for any of it back (never)
And if I could take only as much as I needed (oh)
I would take everything, I would take everything you had
Everything you had
It's feeling one-dimensional to me
We've been tryin' hard to figure out
Give and take and how to be
But don't you see?
I would give you everything that you wanted
And I would never ask for any of it back
And if I could take only as much as I needed
I would take everything you had
Sunrise and you're lying next to me
Wrap me in your arms like I'm made of glass
I need all your love, not just one piece
Hopin' that it ain't too much for me to ask

Baby, don't you know I'd give you everything that you wanted (give you everything)
And I would never ask for any of it back (never)
And if I could take only as much as I needed (oh)
I would take everything, I would take everything you had

Sway
When the wind blows, it can push you around
It can shake you
Maybe you can show me
'Cause it seems like you know how
To not let it faze you
If I didn't wanna take control, I could let go
Maybe one day
I'll learn how to sway
Most of the time, all the thoughts in my mind keep me running
Show me a place where I can just think of nothing
If I surrender, if I let go, will you hold me?
Maybe one day
I'll learn how to sway
Like a palm tree in the wind
I won't break, I'll just bend
And I'll sway
I'll sway
I'll sway
I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)
Like a palm tree in the wind
I won't break, I'll just bend
And I'll sway
I'll sway
I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)
I'll sway (mm, yeah-yeah, mm, yeah-yeah)
It can shake you
Maybe you can show me

Dinner With Friends
Dinner with friends in cities where none of us live
The face that somebody makes when you give 'em a gift
Every once in a while when I wake up early without tryin' and catch a sunrise
The feeling you feel when you're looking at something you made
The layers and ruffles of my favorite pink champagne cake
My home state of Texas
The sky there, the horses and dogs, but none of their laws
The shape of his eyes
The shape of his nose
The cute way he mispronounces certain words
The smell of his clothes
Things I would miss
From the other side
Mm
Intimate convos that go way into the night
The way that the sun on my floor makes a pattern of light
And early in June, when the fireflies first start to glow, never gets old
The shape of his heart
And my shoes by his door
He loves me in all of the ways that I never felt love before
Things I would miss
From the other side
Mm
Mm

Heart Of The Woods
Under the ground, there's a neighborhood that can't be seen
Communicating through the roots of the trees
And up in the trees, there are voices that are echoing
A million different languages, songs we sing
It's in our nature
To look out for each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
When there's danger
We'll take care of each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
Ooh
It's in our nature
To look out for each other
In the heart of the woods
Mm
When there's danger
We'll take care of each other
In the heart of the woods

Mm-mm, mm-mm

We'll take care of each other

Jade Green
I wanna bathe in the moonlight
Until I'm fully charged
Come into my power
And heal the broken parts
That I carry
Mm
Like the bracelet that you bought me
I want you on my arm
Calm, cool and protected
And keepin' me from harm
Jade green
Jade green
I always keep it on me
Always keep it on me
I can't help it, I get anxious
And every time we part
I say a little prayer
To drive away the dark
And I'm with you and you're with me
Like the bracelet that you gave me
Jade green
Jade green
I always keep it on me
Always keep it on me
On me
On me (on me)
Mm, on me
Until I'm fully charged
Come into my power
And heal the broken parts

The Architect
Even something as small as an apple
It's simple and somehow complex
Sweet and divine, the perfect design
Can I speak to the architect?
There's a canyon that cuts through the desert
Did it get there because of a flood?
Was it devised? Or were you surprised
When you saw how grant it was?
Was it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
Is there anything that you regret?
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
Can I speak to the architect?
Sometimes I look in the mirror
And wish I could make a request
Could I pray it away? Am I shapeable clay?
Or is this as good as it gets?
One day, you're on top of the mountain
So high that you'll never come down
Then the wind at your back carries ember and ash
That it burns your whole house to the ground
Is it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
Is there anything that you regret?
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
Can I speak to the architect?
I thought that I was too broken
And maybe too hard to love
I was in a weird place, then I saw the right face
And the stars and the planets lined up
Does it happen by chance? Is it all happenstance?
Do we have any say in this mess?
Is too late to make some more space?
Can I speak to the architect?
This life that we make, is it random or fate?
Can I speak to the architect?
Is there an architect?
It's simple and somehow complex
Sweet and divine, the perfect design
Can I speak to the architect?
There's a canyon that cuts through the desert
Did it get there because of a flood?
Was it devised? Or were you surprised
When you saw how grant it was?
Was it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
Is there anything that you regret?
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
Can I speak to the architect?
Sometimes I look in the mirror
And wish I could make a request
Could I pray it away? Am I shapeable clay?
Or is this as good as it gets?
One day, you're on top of the mountain
So high that you'll never come down
Then the wind at your back carries ember and ash
That it burns your whole house to the ground
Is it thought out at all or just paint on a wall?
Is there anything that you regret?
I don't understand, are there blueprints or plans?
Can I speak to the architect?
I thought that I was too broken
And maybe too hard to love

Can I speak to the architect?
Is there an architect?

Lonely Millionaire
You can step off a plane into a black car
You can pay 'em to wait
You can wear the gold watch on your wrist
But it won't give you back the moments you miss
When I get paid, I wanna spend it on you
And baby, that's what it's for
I'd burn it all to keep you warm
Who wants to be a lonely millionaire
Comin' home, ain't no one there
That you can talk to in your king-sized bed
Be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happiness
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
Oh, mm
Yeah, be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happiness
Oh, mm (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
La-la-la-la
Mm
You can pay 'em to wait
You can wear the gold watch on your wrist
But it won't give you back the moments you miss

Who wants to be a lonely millionaire
Comin' home, ain't no one there

Heaven Is
We spent all day where the North wind blows
And you bought me a lavender rose
Put it in water when we got home
That's what heaven is
No tears to cry, and nothing to mourn
Wearin' your shirt, so tattered and torn
Widen your arms, so safe and warm
That's what heaven is
I don't care for money or fame
All, for you, I'd give it away
The way you sound when you call my name
That's what heaven is
Nobody knows where we go when we die
Maybe we'll ride white horses in the sky
And if we don't, then, darling, tonight
That's what heaven is
If all I have is the light in your eyes
That's what heaven is
And you bought me a lavender rose
Put it in water when we got home
That's what heaven is
No tears to cry, and nothing to mourn
Wearin' your shirt, so tattered and torn
Widen your arms, so safe and warm
That's what heaven is
I don't care for money or fame
All, for you, I'd give it away
The way you sound when you call my name
That's what heaven is
Nobody knows where we go when we die
Maybe we'll ride white horses in the sky
And if we don't, then, darling, tonight

Anime Eyes
The moon is hanging over us, the wind is in the trees
We've got nowhere to be, do we, baby?
On a piece of paper, you write out your love for me
Treasures I'm forever saving
Oh, you're such a pretty thing
When I look at you, I'm always looking through anime eyes
A million little stars bursting into hearts in my anime eyes
Made it through the tears to see a Miyazaki sky
Now it's you and I, and we're flying
Confidently, I can say, I'd almost given up (I almost gave up)
Then you showed me how to love without trying
Oh, you're such a pretty thing
When I look at you, I'm always looking through anime eyes
A million little stars bursting into hearts in my anime eyes
When I look at you (anime eyes)
A million little stars, anime eyes
Ridiculous hazy, crazy, rainbow, explosions of ecstasy
Oh my God, the memories
Happy tears overflowing, lightning bolts so overwhelming
Ugly crying, now I'm melting
Turning into flowers blooming
Angels singing, bells are ringing
Baby, I'm a love tsunami, washing over both our bodies
Sailor Moon's got nothing on me
Since the first time that I saw you
You've given me anime eyes
Anime eyes
We've got nowhere to be, do we, baby?
On a piece of paper, you write out your love for me
Treasures I'm forever saving
Oh, you're such a pretty thing
When I look at you, I'm always looking through anime eyes
A million little stars bursting into hearts in my anime eyes
Made it through the tears to see a Miyazaki sky
Now it's you and I, and we're flying
Confidently, I can say, I'd almost given up (I almost gave up)
Then you showed me how to love without trying
Oh, you're such a pretty thing

Ridiculous hazy, crazy, rainbow, explosions of ecstasy
Oh my God, the memories
Happy tears overflowing, lightning bolts so overwhelming

Nothing to be Scared Of
Livin' on the west side and
I think about you often
Worryin' that I might drive
The nail into the coffin
I've got my own patterns
Maybe I can stop them
Holdin' tight to who you are
Like someone's gonna take it
Bubble wrap around your heart
Like someone's gonna break it
Demons in your mirror
Together, we'll escape them
Come to me and drop your bags
And I'll help you unpack them
You're the only one I want to give my love
There's nothing to be scared of
I made a list of everything
That I've been busy chasin'
But if a train is meant for me
It won't leave the station
And pull away
I'll come to you and drop my bags
And you'll help me unpack them
You say I'm the only one you wanna give your love
There's nothing to be scared of
Nothing to be scared of
Nothing to be scared of
I think about you often
Worryin' that I might drive
The nail into the coffin
I've got my own patterns
Maybe I can stop them
Holdin' tight to who you are
Like someone's gonna take it
Bubble wrap around your heart
Like someone's gonna break it
Demons in your mirror
Together, we'll escape them
Come to me and drop your bags
And I'll help you unpack them
You're the only one I want to give my love
There's nothing to be scared of
I made a list of everything
That I've been busy chasin'
But if a train is meant for me
It won't leave the station
And pull away
I'll come to you and drop my bags
And you'll help me unpack them
You say I'm the only one you wanna give your love
There's nothing to be scared of
Nothing to be scared of
Nothing to be scared of
