You Me - Rose Ave Lyrics
Capsized
We've got a long way to go
Winds are howlin'
I can feel it in my bones
Are we drownin'?
We were two ships in the night
Passing by in the pale moonlight and capsized
We were two ships in the night
Hellbent on trying to survive and capsized
The moon will shed her light
Don't fight the tides, they rise
Give in and float awhile, my darlin'
I can save you, the current is too strong
I've known this all along
A wicked gale I am, my darlin'
And you can't save me
We were two ships in the night
Passing by in the pale moonlight and capsized
We were two ships in the night
Hellbent on trying to survive and capsized
Capsized [2x]
We were two ships in the night
We were two ships in the night
Hellbent on trying to survive and capsized
We were two ships in the night
Passing by in the pale moonlight and capsized
We were two ships in the night
Hellbent on trying to survive and capsized
[fade]

From A Closet In Norway (Oslo Blues)
I would rather be any place but here
Spin the bottle or roll the dice, my dear
'Cause I can't care, I can't seem to break my fall
It seems I would rather be any place at all
So if the world is round now, why can't we have everything?
'Cause the highs are so high, these lows are killing me, killing me, killing me
I remember when wind would make me cry
I remember when wasn't afraid to die
I wish I'd never, never fallen in love
So take this soul I sold, I'm going back in time
So if the world is round now, why can't we have everything?
'Cause the highs are so high, these lows are killing me, killing me, oh, they're killing me
Seems the dying are the only ones that really know how to live
It seems the dying are the only ones that really know how to live
Seems the dying are the only ones that really know how to live
It seems the dying are the only ones that really know how to live

Gently
No I wouldn't mind going gently into the night
As long as it don't hurt
I won't put up a fight
To go beyond the time
When our hands and voice are sold to a world overgrown
It's moving so fast we should slow down
But as the shadows from the trees
Dance on the window pane
Here I lie waiting once again,
Longing for a dream
That may never come
Until I'm done
But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind
I don't care
If I vanish into thin air
As long as there ain't pain
I will leave you that burning pain
To live on the other side
So reckless and free on your own
With no fear of the unknown
But I'm moving too fast I should slow down
But as the shadow from the trees
Dance on the window pane
Here I lie waiting once again,
Longing for a dream
That may never come
Until I'm done
But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind
Time is life's great healer
It's a bandit in disguise
Stealing all your memories
As each year passes by
It's the same old story
Just told on a different day
Another lonesome journey
Down a darker away
But I wouldn't mind
No I wouldn't mind
I can see it with my own two eyes
That I wouldn't mind
I wouldn't mind

Love Gone Wrong
Baby baby, don't you come my way no more
I don't want you knocking at my door
Baby baby, why'd you treat me so damn mean
When I gave you my love more than you'd ever seen
Baby baby, oh can't you see my pain
Don't you understand what it's like to feel this way
Baby baby, don't you come my way no more
'Cause it won't be like the way it was before
Ours was just a love gone wrong
Don't that sound like the same old song
This time I'm really moving on
'Cause baby I'm gone, I'm gone gone gone
I'm gone for good
Baby baby, think you got this story wrong
You have misunderstood me and my loving all along
Baby baby, could've all worked out just fine
But you kept breaking me down and working me time after time
And you say baby baby, oh can't I see your pain
Don't I understand what it's like to feel this way
Well let me tell you baby, baby baby
Won't you step into these shoes
Walk a mile with me and then tell me who hurt who
Ours was just a love gone wrong
Don't that sound like the same old song
This time I'm really moving on
'Cause baby I'm gone, I'm gone gone gone
I'm gone for good
We can go our separate ways hoping to find a better day
When there's no one left to chase, one truth remains
We're one and the same
Ours was just a love gone wrong
Don't that sound like the same old song
This time I'm really moving on
'Cause baby I'm gone, I'm gone gone gone
I'm gone for good

You And Me
You and me were always with each other
Before we knew the other was ever there
You and me, we belong together
Just like a breath needs the air
I told you if you called I would come runnin'
Across the highs, the lows and the in-betweens
You and me we've got two minds that think as one
And our hearts march to the same beat
They say everything it happens for a reason
You can be flawed enough, but perfect for a person
Someone who will be there for you when you fall apart
Guiding your direction when you're riding through the dark
Oh that's you and me
You and me we're searching for the same light
Desperate for a cure to this disease
Well some days are better than others
But I fear no thing as long as you're with me
They say everything it happens for a reason
You can be flawed enough, but perfect for a person
Someone who will be there for you when you fall apart
Guiding your direction when you're riding through the dark
And they say everything it happens for a reason
You can be flawed enough, but perfect for a person
Someone who will be there when you start to fall apart
Guiding your direction when you're riding through the dark
Oh that's you and me [x3]
That's you and me [x2]

Unbeliever
I've been wandering through
This dead city
With the devil's voice inside my head
And the streets they're all, they're after fortune
And the sky is painted blind dark grey
But I keep hanging on
I keep hanging on
And on
Now I'm a thousand miles away from nowhere
And the night is turning, it's turning bleak
Fear comes upon me now
And I feel just like some ill fated beast
But I keep hanging on
I keep hanging on
And on
Now I don't have
Much to offer
I thought that was plain to see
Explain I'm just an unbeliever
And I believe you can count on me
If you keep (I'll keep) hanging on
Just keep (I'll keep) hanging on
And on

Second Guess
Ain't got no reason but I've got rhymes
I've spent too much of what I've earned just trying to feel alive
I wish I could rewrite the stories of the past
But you can't go back and change what's done and start over where you began
I don't know where to go from here now
Something still lingers though, it's weighing me down
I know the sun will shine again
Back and forth it seems we'll remain until the end
One step too many, time after time
F*cking up 'round every turn, sick of how I'm feeling inside
I don't know where to go from here now
Something still lingers though, it's weighing me down
I know the sun will shine again
Back and forth it seems we'll remain until the end
Back and forth until the end
Why must everything be a second guess?
Back and forth until the end
Why must everything be a second guess?
I don't know where to go from here now
Something still lingers though, it's weighing me down
I know the sun will shine again
Back and forth it seems we'll remain until the end

Break The Cycle
Circles and cycles and seasons
For everything there's always reason
But it's never good
Never turns out as it should
No one ever held you
No single moment of truth
But if you were mine
I would've looked into those eyes
And said,
[Chorus - Dallas Green:]
Tell me the words you long to hear
And I'll sing them loud and clear
Let me heal the wounds you've held on to for all these years
Break the cycle
Break the chains
'Cause love is louder than all your pain
Than all your pain
Is it all truly broken?
Irreparable mistakes?
Let's take our time
Don't we have to try?
Too many missing pieces
That's always been your reason
To justify
How you feel inside
I wish you'd say,
[Chorus - Dallas Green:]
Tell me the words you long to hear
And I'll sing them loud and clear
Let me heal the wounds you've held on to for all these years
Break the cycle
Break the chains
Love is louder than all your pain
Break the cycle
Break the chains
Love is louder than all your pain
Than all your pain

Open Door
I recall
The time when you and I would talk a little more
To each other face to face, through love and war
Well I hope there will always be an open door for me
But I know, that home is just some place I always leave behind
It's with me everywhere I go and I close my eyes
I know someday I'll catch you in the by and by, I know
I know
Dear mother
I know I have been away for far too long
Dear mother
Hope you understand me when you hear this song
Cause you taught how to be right in a world of wrong
Gone wrong
But it ain't
Ain't how long you live, it's how you live your life
Burn bright until the grave don't shy away from the light
Cause I won't waste my days
I will use my time
My time, my time
Dear father
I know I have been away for far too long
Dear father
Hope you understand me when you hear this song
Cause you taught how to be right in a world of wrong
Gone wrong
I recall
The time when you and I would talk a little more
To each other face to face, through love and war
Well I hope there will always be an open door for me

No Ordinary Love
I gave you all the love I've got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I had inside
and you took my love
you took my love
Didn't I tell you
what I believe
Did somebody say that a
a love like that won't last, didn't I give you
all that I got to
give baby
I keep cryin' for you
I keep tryin' for you
There's nothing like you and I baby
This is no ordinary love
it's no ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
it's no ordinary love
When you came
my way
you, brightened every day
Umm with your sweet smile
With your sweet smile
Didn't I tell you
what I believe
Did somebody say that
a love like that won't last
Didn't I give you
all that I've got to
give baby
This is no ordinary love, it's no ordinary love
This is no ordinary love, it's no ordinary love
This is no ordinary love, no ordinary love
This is no ordinary love, it's no ordinary love
