Flowers
This is the end of conversation
This is the end of blind attraction
This is the end of the meaningful flirt
This is the end of flowers
This is the end of random meetings
This is the end of hopeful smiles
This is the end of honest abandonment
This is the end of flowers
This is the end of maybe tonight
This is the end of wishful thinking
This is the end of friends yet met
And this is the end of flowers
But the Sun still shines
The Sun still shines
The Sun still shines
The Sun still shines

Hares on the Mountain (trad)
Oh Sally my dear, it’s you I’d be kissing
Oh Sally my dear, it’s you I’d be kissing
She smiled and replied, ‘You don’t know what you’re missing’
Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could wed you
Oh Sally my dear, I wish I could bed you
She smiled and replied, ‘Then you’d say I’d misled you’
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
If all the young men were hares on the mountain
How many young girls would take guns and go hunting?
If young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes
If young men could sing like blackbirds and thrushes
How many young girls would go beating the bushe?
If all the young men were fish in the water
If all the young men were fish in the water
How many young girls would undress and dive after?
But the young men are given to frisking and fooling
Oh the young men are given to frisking and fooling
I’ll lturn me aside and attend to my schooling

Just Because

Just Because
Just because you want it now
Doesn’t mean you'll want it later
Just because you say it now
Doesn't mean you'll not regret it
Just because you shine tonight
Doesn't mean you'll shine forever
Even if when stars are bright
I'll be glad I can remember
When you open like a flower
When your eyes are burning bright
When your skin is cool as fire
When your pulse is beating mine
Just because we have it now
Doesn't mean it lasts forever
Just because it makes no sense
Just because it does no harm
When you hold yourself so weightless
When you bear yourself so true
When there is no past or future
When its only me and you
Just because you want it now
Doesn't mean it is not special
Just because it feels good now
Doesn't mean it was not meant to be…

Sorry/Headphones

Sorry / Headphones
She's always in her headphones
She's moving in her space
Positiving filters essential
to just get by
I seen her when she's smiling
And floating down the street
Seriously upbeat avoiding
It makes me think
Of all the times i acted
To try to please myself
Disregarding others potential
To be themselves.
I wish i had been stronger
But regrets count for shit
This is not some long-shot confession
That puts things right.
And sorry is simply a word
And I'm so tired
There are no retractions enough
To justify. My love.
I used to leave her flowers
I used to leave her books
I used to leave her photographs
Of images i took thinking of her
I did it with intention
I did it with a fear
I did just in case i wasn't
Missing the moment
I never meant to make you feel
Uncomfortably unsure
I never meant to make you feel
Apprehensive, at all.
And Sorry is simply a word
And I'm so tired
There are no reactions enough
To save my soul. Now.
Outro
Sorry, but apologies, don't mean shit.
