Blood Moon 03:43
It's early in the morning And ooh my heart it soaring And in my veins it's coursing With nowhere to go I'll lay here in this bed 'til afternoon And then until the rise of our blood moon Ah ooh where do you go when days are slow (ah oh) Ah ooh how do you find the notes when all the Words appear as smoke Where do you go when you're facing it too soon You always blame the blood moon The sun is casting shadows on the wall While I sit tight and wait for it to fall With my thoughts all burned to ashes at my feet Nowhere to go I'm staring at this suitcase on the floor But I can't seem to make it out the front door Ah ooh where do you go when days are slow (ah oh) Ah ooh how do you find the notes when all the Words appear as smoke Where do you go when you're facing it too soon You always blame the blood moon Well everything's coming up roses But nothing seems to fall right into place I'm scared of all the storms that came before me Excuses get you nowhere all too fast Ah ooh where do you go when days are slow Ah ooh how do you find the notes when all the Words appear as smoke Ah ooh where do you go when days are slow Ah ooh how do you find the notes when all the Words appear as smoke Where do you go when you're facing it too soon You always blame the blood moon Blood moon You always blame the blood moon

Long drives - late nights And coffee too much for minimal conversationalists Bank notes - sore throats Too many concerts in too little time For aspiring bands of gypsies in vans Look at her now standing there with a Bass guitar and a bun in her hair and she Doesn't even really have to try yeah So cool that it's a little unfair now Look at me could I really be On the way to being just like she Everything you say so effortlessly true How do you do what you do Woah oh - Yeah - Woah oh - Woah - Woah oh Tell me now - How do you do what you do Downtown - Tuesday I've gotta' be up early but you made me forget All the things that I was worried about Hands stamped - lemonade Audience is great but we wish we were backstage Look at her now standing there with a Bass guitar and a bun in her hair and she Doesn't even really have to try yeah So cool that it's a little unfair now Look at me could I really be On the way to being just like she Everything you say so effortlessly true How do you do what you do Woah oh - Yeah - Woah oh - Woah - Woah oh Tell me now - How do you do what you do Well we like to play in coffee shops And talk about life like it requires lots of thought We tend to say sorry too much But thank heaven for what we've got 'Cause tomorrow might be different And the skies above might rain - but I'll still be One half a folk duo Look at her now standing there with a Bass guitar and a bun in her hair and she Doesn't even really have to try yeah So cool that it's a little unfair now Look at me could I really be On the way to being just like she Everything you say so effortlessly true How do you do what you do Woah oh - Yeah - Woah oh - Woah - Woah oh Tell me now - How do you do what you do

I was never great at introductions First impressions scare me half to death Never was the best at saying hello But my goodbyes oh my they were superb Twelve o'clock has almost come and gone And soon enough I will be on my way Staring at your reflection out the window Tears come fast and the guitar starts to play Singin' I never meant for all this trouble Never knew I would miss you so much I've got this pile of stamped up letters All these envelopes collecting dust Sun is high but boy I'm feeling low Still haven't brought myself to read that note Before I left you hugged me tight and said If nothing else you meant something to me But I never meant for all this trouble Never knew I would miss you so much I've got this pile of stamped up letters All these envelopes collecting dust Well I don't even remember the last time Somebody came and told me it's alright (it's alright) All your words are jumbled in my mind But I'm hoping now you told me that you knew that I never meant for all this trouble Never knew I would miss you so much I've got this pile of stamped up letters All these envelopes collecting dust All these envelopes collecting dust All these envelopes collecting dust

Right on Cue 02:29
I thought I was pretty good at speaking my mind Well I realized that's not so I write too many words about what I think And not enough about what I know But when I'm tapping my feet to the rhythm of the music With a big congregation My mind runs in circles as the church bells ring And the preacher says see you next week And the clouds move over the sky just like a clock ticks The moon goes through its phases right on cue I like it better when things are black and white That's a little piece of my mind now how 'bout you You don't have to act like you're smarter than I am Even if maybe you are I don't expect you to be a fool around me But it's okay to be foolish 'Cause when we're together the world turns backwards Everything is upside down That's how I know we're gonna' be just fine Even if we're dizzy for a while And the clouds move over the sky just like a clock ticks The moon goes through its phases right on cue I like it better when things are black and white That's a little piece of my mind now how 'bout you And the clouds move over the sky just like a clock ticks The moon goes through its phases right on cue I like it better when things are black and white That's a little piece of my mind now how 'bout you I wanna' stand in your shoes Just to see everything from your point of view Just to see everything from your point of view
