you let me down easy baby and thats ok cuz you dont know me
but im not fallin any farther, oh and nothings hit me harder
than the pink headband and shirt to match did that day when you first met me
i was there for other reasons, oh girl now you got me scheming
pre chorus
the circumstances under which we met might be bad
and theyre holdin me back
chorus
ooo baby was afraid id never find a lady anything but crazy like the one i had before you
never had a fantasy or imagined me sharing anything with her after we fell through
and i dont wanna make you choose cuz thats a fight ill lose i just wish it was a fair bet
why you gotta be best friends with my ex?
verse 2
now i got no control over how we met
and the same goes for the memory of your face your voice i cant forget
but baby dont chalk it up to coincidence and quit on this
cuz if we made it out as lovers youda never known each other and the same could be true for me and you now baby think it through
pre chorus
just another classic case of wanting something you cant have
oh but i want it bad
chorus
ooo baby was afraid id never find a lady anything but crazy like the one i had before you
never had a fantasy or imagined me sharing anything with her after we fell through
and i dont wanna make you choose cuz thats a fight ill lose i just wish it was a fair bet
why you gotta be best friends with my...

ooo baby was afraid id never find a lady anything but crazy like the one i had before you

Please excuse me
if right now i dont know what to say
girl ive never
had to describe a girl who looks that way
please forgive me
if the things that i do dont make no sense
its just because ive never known a girl
to make me act like this
pre chorus
you take my hand you say hey hows your day like theres nothing going on
all the while deep inside i just hide how i feel and play along
chorus
but i just need one chance to hold your hand
and be the man that you always made me wanna be
i just need one shot come on girl im not
gonna win your heart and leave
oh and i know that your probably scared of all the failed attempts you've seen
but girl you've tried so many times so when you're done trying
Try Me
verse 2
You throw that hair back just like that
and laugh at that joke i wish i didnt say
i get so mad, so mad
i should just tell you why your laughs got me smiling this way
prechorus
but its so hard cuz your so happy girl and im happy
for you
and make that smile disappear and those eyes fill up with tears is the last thing id ever do
chorus
If youd give me one chance to hold your hand
and be the man that you always made me wanna be
i just need one shot come on girl im not
gonna win your heart and leave
oh and i know that your probably scared of all the failed attempts you've seen
but girl you've tried so many times so when you're done trying
Try Me
bridge
and the hardest part about loving you girl
is i know you wont say yes
and even though it'll break my heart i could never no, i would never no, i could never love you less
love you less
love you less
love you less
but girl you've tried so many times so when you're done trying
you can try me

well my buddy and i had to do this thing right only had more night with the bright city lights of Austin
we werent foolin around hit the first bar we found i was buying a round and thats when i saw her walk in
i didnt bother to ask i bought her a glass we started to dance and soon she was hellbent on leavin
so we flew to a spot way out by the pond the mood was so on i couldnt believe i was seein
thought i was dreamin
chorus
watching her silhouette dancing in the moonlit glow
with her hair pulled back and sand between her toes
down by the pier where the cattail grows
oh god i cant believe it i know what she was thinkin when she
wrapped her arms right around my neck
i could feel my heart beatin out my chest
cant believe im fallin
her kiss is what im lost in
damn i wish i had another night in Austin
verse 2
and now every night in bed i climb im wonderin why im wonderin what shes doing
oh cuz every trace i find of her face up here in my brain is an hour of sleep that im losing
oh i gotta believe somewhere that shes thinking of me and thinking the same things i do
oh i should get some sleep drift off in a dream give my mind relief but every time i try to
chorus
Im seein her silhouette dancing in the moonlit glow
with her hair pulled back and sand between her toes
down by the pier where the cattail grows
oh god i cant believe it i know what she was thinkin when she
wrapped her arms right around my neck
i could feel my heart beatin out my chest
cant believe im fallin
her kiss is what im lost in
damn i wish i had another night in Austin
bridge
and i know i cant go back
until i get home and pack
i just gotta see her
chorus
Silhouette dancing in the moonlit glow
with her hair pulled back and sand between her toes
down by the pier where the cattail grows
oh god i cant believe it i know what she was thinkin when she
wrapped her arms right around my neck
i could feel my heart beatin out my chest
cant believe im fallin
her kiss is what im lost in
damn i wish i had another night in Austin

Cafe Corner
03:53
|
|||
|
wasting my time again, in the cafe i used to rarely go
just trying to block out the conversations of these strangers that i know
letting the fingers of my mind run through the sunlight of a memory that calls
Recklessly, wishing me back here inside of these walls
chorus
Rays of her voice, pour from the corner, now muted and dark
the shadow that she casts over-reaches, covers up my heart
but that empty cafe corner fills the hole here in my heart
Verse 2
the pattern in the floral of her dress, and that guitar to match her eyes
are secondary memories to the sound of her singing when she smiles
chorus
i wonder if, the longer that i sit, what my chances are
that ill still hear a note or two rambling from the strings of her guitar
and let this empty cafe corner fill the whole here in my heart
bridge
She might think im crazy, well it wouldnt be the first time
that i have found a memory, that made me lose my mind
pre-chorus
and i dont know if or when ill ever need it, but i keep her calling card
its just nice to know at least theres someone out there, looking for the same thing you are
thats how this empty cafe corner fills the hole here in my heart

Slow Ride
03:46
|
|||
|
You look at me through the windshield
but see his face in your rearview
And its obvious his image
is closer than appears to you
Now Im not trying to take the wheel girl
that'd be a silly thing to ask
And if at any time your feel like it baby
just ease up off the gas
Chorus
You can slow ride with me girl
Even just for the day
cuz I dont mind watching your leaves fall
but that dont mean the seasons gotta change
Going fast is overrated
and spinning tires never works
So lets just cruise until we make it
or until we find out what its worth
You can Slow Ride with me
Verse 2
Oh too many times
we use speed limits as guidelines
We break the law
and wind up paying fines
Oh but why not pump the brakes
girl cuz even if we're late
The worst thing that I'll call you
will be mine
Chorus
You can slow ride with me girl
Even just for the day
cuz I dont mind watching your leaves fall
but that dont mean the seasons gotta change
Going fast is overrated
and spinning tires never works
So lets just cruise until we make it
or until we find out what its worth
Bridge:
Seems like everybody these days
uses love like its a freeway
Girl dont crash rushing babe
(cooing)
You can slow ride with me
