Begin Again (The Man's Perspective)

Take a deep breath in the mirror

He didn’t like when you wore high heels

But I do

Turn the lock and put your headphones on

He always said he didn’t get your songs

But I do, I do

Thought I’d be angry ‘cause your late

But I got here early and I stand and wave

You walk to me

I pull your chair out and help you in

And yes I know nice that is

Yes I know

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid

And I want to make you feel special because he never did

You’ve been spending the last eight months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again

You said you never met one guy

Who knew as many small town artists as you

But I do

We tell stories ‘bout our crazy lives

You’re coming off a little shy

Like I do

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid

And I want to make you feel special because he never did

You’ve been spending the last eight months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again

And we walked down the block to your car and you almost stopped right there

But we start to walk forward and talk about your family and friends

Every single desire and you want to talk about that

And for the first time what’s past is past

I throw my head back laughing like a little kid

And I want to make you feel special because he never did

You’ve been spending the last eight months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a café, I watched it begin again
But on a Wednesday in a café, we watched it begin again

Di Que Sí

Su cara es hermosa, mi amor

Quédate conmigo, por favor

Su sonrisa brilla tanto

Cuando las estrellas brillan

Como tus ojos me dan felicidad

Quiero estar en tu ciudad

Con una docena de rosas

Y un anillo para hacerte mi esposa

Mi amor por ti no morirá

Si te amo, prometo que nunca se irá

Voy y sabes lo que pediré

Sabes lo que espero que usted dirá

Que sí, di que sí

Te ves tan majestuosa, mi amante

Y en este anillo, hay un diamante

Porque sus formas son tan especiales

Los movimientos de sus caderas son celestiales

Vendré, y cuando vengo

Vendré en el amor y halago

Mi amor por ti no morirá

Si te amo, prometo que nunca se irá

Voy y sabes lo que pediré

Sabes lo que espero que usted dirá

Que sí, di que sí

May I Have This Dance?

The speakers leaves the stage

And the music starts to play

The women in dresses

And the men in suits

Their posture coalesces

With synchronicity they move

But she sits all alone, her hair all done

A beautiful gown, and she is sitting down

Arising I approach, in effulgent hope

I reach out my hand, and with a compassionate voice I ask

Is your heart beating

As fast as mine?

The night is fleeting

And the stars shine

So on the off chance

You’ll take my hand

I’d like to ask

May I have this dance?

The massive crowd now parts

And the soft music now starts

The dancing now begins

As everyone stares

Our hearts beat to the rhythm

I have not yet cast aside my cares

And she sits all alone, her hair all done

A beautiful gown, and she is sitting down

Arising I approach, in effulgent hope

I reach out my hand, and with a compassionate voice I ask

Is your heart beating

As fast as mine?

The night is fleeting

And the stars shine

So on the off chance

You’ll take my hand

I’d like to ask

May I have this dance?

One more dance with you

One more encore

I wish you could have the moon

What more’s in store?

Babe, I haven’t a clue

But for now, may I have this dance with you?

Is your heart beating

As fast as mine?

The night is fleeting

And the stars shine

So on the off chance

You’ll take my hand

I’d like to ask
May I have this dance?

Can You?

I cannot believe I said those words to you

I cannot believe the inconsiderations I made

So many times wishing I could hate you

Hoping that if I pretend my feelings for fade

That maybe my heart would actually believe me

But it never worked that way

And those feelings of hatred never did relieve me

All it ever did was drive me insane

How can I retract all of the words I said?

Sure God has forgiven me

But can that ever make amends?

Can I ever take back my defeat?

Can I take back the hurt?

Can you ever forgive

Those hurtful words?

Can we live and let live?

Spider

Wandering the streets with my superpowers

Because my soul has been devoured

So now every minute, every hour

The voices in my head grow louder

Images ingrained and stained in my head

Finishes the bane disdain clothed in red

I wish that love had never come

And if I’m left to play the hero this time

I don’t wanna have to save you

So babe, don’t stay, just run

Before you run out of time

Before time runs out on you

Badgering my mind with my battle fatigue

Because my brain has lost intrigue

So now every movement, like a machine

The loudness grows, I hear my own heart beat

Rationale inclined and mined from my thoughts

Chaparral maligned and chined, look what it bought

I wish that love had never come

And if I’m left to play the hero this time

I don’t wanna have to save you

So babe, don’t stay, just run

Before you run out of time

Before time runs out on you

Black roses at your funeral

Your insistence to help

You character so haughty some

Resulting in your untimely death

I did not stop you

Because I loved you

Please run

Please run

I wish that love had never come

And if I’m left to play the hero this time

I don’t wanna have to save you

So babe, don’t stay, just run

Before you run out of time

Before time runs out on you

I Miss You

This is a completely different premise than Shane and Shane's track with the same name, so I did not copy anything.  

I miss you

Like the flower

Longing for the sun

Yearning in the midnight hour

Wanting the night to be done

I want you

Like the dark night

Longing for the moon

Longing for you in my sight

Wishing I would come soon

And so day or night

Is not overly important

I just know it feels right

And effervescent

You are the one

I have been waiting for

This flower longs for your sun

Of that, I can only be sure

I Long For You

Like a way back from hell

You saved my life

And time can only tell

If you will stay in my sights

But I trust that we both

Know and understand

That we both have a hole

A fire that is unfanned

And I know it’s not right

To want to come for you

Because I want to come for you

But maybe it’s not right

To not come there for you

Because I want to come for you

I will wait, I will wait

Until the sun falls from the sky

I will chase, I will chase

You until time passes us by

Tomorrow might be too late

Today might be too soon

I know that I cannot wait

To sit with you underneath the moon

Like a thief in the night

You stole my heart

And it only feels right

To wanna be where you are

But I trust that you and I

Know and wanna be

Over our drawn up lines

Let’s live this fantasy

And I know it’s not right

To want to come for you

Because I want to come for you

But maybe it’s not right

To not come there for you

Because I want to come for you

I will wait, I will wait

Until the sun falls from the sky

I will chase, I will chase

You until time passes us by

Tomorrow might be too late

Today might be too soon

I know that I cannot wait

To sit with you underneath the moon

Tranquil nights underneath the moon

Wishful thoughts at the height of June

July burns and scorches the earth

But it’s not as hot as my heart burns

For you, yeah babe, I long for you

I long for you

I will wait, I will wait

Until the sun falls from the sky

I will chase, I will chase

You until time passes us by

Tomorrow might be too late

Today might be too soon

I know that I cannot wait

To sit with you underneath the moon
