GOOD BOY LYRICS
-
ONLY CHILD
I’ve never been good with names or quick with faces
It’s nothing personal...
I’ve had to compensate with every other word i know
Far from a Casanova but refined for longer than most
Love takes a while to find
It’s got me knocking on a couple doors
Ain’t picking favourites
No, I’m saving all the best for last Sharing your piece of the pie
so damn complex for an only child
I won’t try to complicate how basic instincts operate
Our bodies compensate with more than words could ever say Far from a Casanova but been at it for longer than most Please let me walk at my own pace
All good things come to those who wait
Ain’t picking favourites
No, I’m saving all the best for last
Sharing your piece of the pie
gets so complex for an only child
Ain’t picking favourites
I’m saving all the best for last Sharing your piece of the pie gets so complex for an only child -
HOTEL BED
Don’t get out of bed yet
I’m just catching my breath, she says,
You men all the same, quick to turn over the page Don’t rush out of bed yet
Don’t make up your mind
For my time hasn’t come yet
You build all my hopes up
Walking a fine line the way that you want it Getting tired of waiting on you
Making sense of your clues
I’ll be going going gone
Before you open your eyes
EYES
EYES
EYES
EYES
Being the mold doesn’t fit you
Since nothing can shake you
As you’re terrified of compromises too Calm and far from spiteful
I just can’t be tabled like this
Who am I if I wait around for you?
It’s what I’ve been used to, with you Guess I got used to the feel of a hotel bed
You build all my hopes up
Walking a fine line the way that you want it Getting tired of waiting on you
Making sense of your clues
I’ll be going going gone
Before you open your eyes
EYES EYES
EYES EYES
EYES EYES

EARLY MORNING SUN
Early morning sun
Put some coffee on
Try to play it right and figure my life out
Caught in this heatwave, wagging a new tail
I’m combing the details and I’m on my way!
Early morning sun
Better days to come
Got peace and quiet, got everything right
Dog’s got a new name, love’s got a new face
I’m packing my suitcase and I’m on my way
So rise and shine on me
Yea rise and shine on me
Early morning sun
Rough days are done
Got peace in sight, a story to write
My head’s in the right place, back from my homestay
A dog and a suitcase at the airport gate
So rise and shine on me Rise and shine on me (and I’m on my)
So rise and shine on me (and I’m on my way) Rise and shine on me
shine, shine, shine -
BLUE
After all
All I did for you
Now all my nights are blue because of you
I’m blue
Blue eyes got me tied up
Looks and heart never line up
How to know what you’re thinking?
Can’t read your mind but I’m patient
and still want your eyes to make me feel like
I’m better than the ones you’ve had before
That your love for me is all but lost
After all,
All I did for you...
Now all my nights are blue because of you
I’m blue
One song and I rest my case
Couple lines then I turn the page
Couldn’t talk it out face to face
Yours is a love that’s hard to frame
Made me lose all hope and
Made me blue, made me question
Every word we ever told each other
After all,
All I did for you...
Now all my nights are blue, because of you
I’m blue
After all,
All I did for you...
Now all my nights are blue, because of you
I’m blue -
C.A.Y.A.
Heard you pulled back from yet another one
Better keep turning the pages for the story to run
Hope you find your way through the highs and lows
Life is a pot of gold down to my mother’s soul
And I’m rooting for you
(come as you are)
I’m rooting for you
Come as you are, you
Come as you are
No don’t change
Come as you are, you
Come as you are and don’t change a thing
Let ‘em swivel alone on their piles of gold
Count your blessings love, just your health alone
Might be harder to notice when you’re running in circles
but the more you try, the less you know
Nothing to lose, face it
Go on, get loose
Come as you are, you
C.A.Y.A.
No don’t change
Come as you are, you
Come as you are and don’t change a thing
How many falls will it take you to notice?
How many dead ends have led you on?
I know your doubts pull you one way, to the other side
Ain’t too late to rectify...
Better recognize it
Come as you are, you (all cards on the table)
Come as you are
No don’t change
Come as you are, you (no games undercover)
Come as you are and don’t change a thing -
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
First impressions are usually right
Saw you looking, caught your eye
If I get on that road, will you rock my boat how I like it?
Yea I’ll belong to you for the night, baby, if you want me to
Just move baby, move it
Come and move by my side
Move baby move it
Come and move by side
Move baby move it
Come and move by my side
Move baby move it
No suppressions if the feeling is right
Time’s drifting, lost in the moonlight
Bless intuition, mine never fails me
I let it make the calls, let it open doors
and mine is opening up to you
So move baby, move it
come and move by my side
Move baby move it
Come and move by side
Move baby move it
Come and move by my side
Move baby move it
Come and move by my side
Move baby move it
Move baby move it
Move baby move it
Move baby move it -
HOPEFUL
Tell me something good
Cause there’s something about you
Different about you
And I am too, hallelujah!
Tell me something good
Tell me how to talk you into setting off on a whim
I’m here betting all of my winnings on you
You know everybody wants to get with you (me included)
You got everyone’s attention, got more than just my eyes on you
But I tend to be hopeful, to get past the shyness
Better try and bite the bullet than not knowing what you missed
I tend to be hopeful to help break off the silence,
to attempt a conversation, sort out the combination too
And if it’s not the time I can recognize
Wanna keep the dream alive though
Can push it ‘till the last call
Whatever the cost, it’s worth a dip in the sauce
The only road I know, quick loving on the go
Whatever the odds,
I’m putting all of my trust in setting off on a whim
And betting all my winnings on you
You know everybody wants to get with you... (me included)
You got everyone’s attention, got more than just my eyes on you
But I tend to be hopeful, to get past the shyness
Better try and bite the bullet than never knowing what you missed
I tend to be hopeful to help break off the silence,
to attempt a conversation, sort out the combination too -
RECUERDO DE TI
Un recuerdo de ti
y los olores del campo
tú al lado de mí, quedando así Me recuerdo de ti
y cómo pasa volando el tiempo contigo tú al lado de mí, me recuerdo de ti
me recuerdo de ti -
MAC N CHEESE
Must be part of a dream
Feels like some kind of movie scene
Like I’m just scratching the surface
Know there’s more here to witness for me
I’m that bird on the wire
I’m who I aspire to be
Ain’t one to get tired
But if you are it’s fine by me
I’m more the type to be loose
Loosened up enough already
Again remind me what’s the use
in setting myself limits?
Oh,
I’m on the upside
Oh no,
I’m on the upside
Must be doing something right
It gets me everytime I notice
It’s in my nature to wander
It’s the quest for the holy answers
I’m that kid in the choir
Half-interested but lined up
Ain’t one to get tired
I can sing it line by line to you
Like I’m loose, loosened up enough already
Again remind me what’s the use, in setting myself limits?
Oh no,
I’m on the upside Oh,
I’m on the upside
I’m on the upside
I’m on the upside -
OVER YOU
Always faking
All self-absorbed in your lies
Can’t start to imagine the world in your eyes
‘Cause you cover up all your feelings
trying to come in appealing, yet you’re losing out
And what you’re trying to conceal, still everybody can see it
It keeps crawling over
Over your body
Over your body and soul
Like it’s under your skin, living within you Over your body
Over your body and soul
Over you
We’ll remain strangers
You set yourself apart with too many layers to peel to your heart
I sit and watch, it’s kind of mystifying
The way you act and establish contact
All that big talk, even a blind man could see through
Still, you cover up all your feelings
trying to come in appealing, yet you’re wasting time
And what you’re trying to conceal still everybody can see it
It keeps crawling over
Over your body
Over your body and soul
Like it’s under your skin, living within you Over your body
Over your body and soul
Over you -
STATE OF MIND (INTERLUDE)
Not looking for a reason No I come in easy,
it’s a state of mind
Not looking for a reason Nor a man to fight
No I come in easy,
it’s a state of mind -
NO CALLS BEFORE NOON
Head under water
Toes in the sand
Like I’m done making plans
Like I just need a pacifier
Funny how places can make you feel at home
How paintings on the walls are mirrors of our souls
I’ll check in later, see y’all soon
In the meantime please
no calls before noon
And I ain’t saying I won’t return home...or am I?
Taunting myself just to see what could happen if I let it take over
Though I already know how this goes for me
Love how people can make you feel at home
How little conversation you really need at all
I’ll check in later see y’all soon
In the meantime please
no calls before noon
Let the story outrun its time
I’ll stand behind it
waiting to run into something new,
I follow the sun, sleep under the moonlight
Funny how places can make you feel at home
How paintings on the walls are mirrors of our souls
I’ll check in later, see y’all soon
In the meantime please
no calls before noon
Love how people can make you feel at home
How little conversation you really need at all
I’ll check in later, see y’all soon
In the meantime please
no calls before noon
