Stand Alone 04:29
lyrics
I stand alone A man against a thousand waves That tear down cliffs of stone Fear won’t divide me Turn my head against what my heart knows Halcyon days Remembering the past I see the world in shades of grey Silent but dreaming A flower yearning for the mornings rays We live on numbered days And everything we’ve got will slowly fade away Change is the only thing remaining The only thing that stays the same I don’t know any, anybody Who wouldn’t buy this feeling if they could I don’t know any, anybody Who wouldn’t sell their soul to feel this good I won’t live like a stone, I’m gonna roll

New Year's Day 03:45
lyrics
It’s New Year’s Day and I am sitting in the shade with my guitar Underneath a mandarin tree in my own backyard Well, I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer Cos it’s a day for new beginnings but the end, my friend, it’s always near So I don’t make new year’s resolutions No, I don’t make new year’s resolutions And though I don’t make new year’s resolutions There’s still alot I’m gonna do with this new year I might buy a one-way ticket to a country that I’ve never seen before Or reignite a romance interrupted by a sliding door See, I’m under the impression I can do whatever I please But I’m living like a mandarin tree, just blowing in the breeze Chorus I’m always trying to be the best version of me that I can be I’m not sitting waiting on next New Year Any new direction starts right here Chorus

Smile 04:09
lyrics
I could tame any lion with a voice as sweet as yours If I had skin so smooth, Baby, I could walk through walls I saw you standing naked with your wiondow open wide You turned and saw me staring and all that I could do was smile I smiled, yeah I was chasing a shadow, but the shadow grew so tall As the lights went dim behind me, until it wasn’t there at all I was always expecting the worst Until I laid my eyes on you I never smiled The moonlight on your arms is bright Lay with me until the daylight I see that burning in your eyes I know what’s on your mind I know what’s on your mind And it makes me smile, yeah

Might Think of You 04:12
lyrics
I’m gonna take a long drive With the windows down And find a big old tree Where I cant be found And I’ll light me a fire Sing a song or two But when I’m all alone I might think of you But in the morning light When there’s things to do I get a game face on It kinda helps me through You see my feet are getting itchy in this goldfish bowl I know when its time to shoot through I’m leaving by this evening I won’t tell a soul Try to become someone new But when I’m all alone I might think of you I might be craving company But I’m better off alone Until I'm thinking clearly I’m turning off the phone Cos when I’m all alone I might think of you
