Come here my little girl
do you remember me?
when you used to sit upon
upon my knee
I'm sorry I went away
but I promise i'm here to stay
we can fish down by the lake
like we used to do
come here my little girl
i'm sorry i have to go
me and your momma
we just can't work it out anymore
please please my little girl
don't shed your sweet tears
daddy will see you again
in a couple of years
come here my little girl
do you remember me?
when you used to sit upon
upon my knee

Sunshine

you go to bed
not a thought in your head
you know you'll have
good dreams tonight
you go for a walk
down by the river
it's rainin' again
but you don't mind
you go to bed at night
no one there to hold you
you know everything's
gonna be all right
let the sunshine in
let the sunshine in
let the sunshine in
you wake in the morning
it's rainin' again
you wonder if she'll ever
come back here again
you get in the shower
wash away all your sins
made a mistake
ain't gonna do it again
you wake in the morning
not a cloud in the sky
such a perfect time for
you and I
let the sunshine in
let the sunshine in
let the sunshine in

Shitty Little Car

Drivin' around
in my shitty little car
got the stereo turned down
cause i know i'm not
going very far.
We go into my house
sit on the bed
talk about things to come
what's going through our heads
So passionate, so brand new
from the first moment
that I meant you
complications put aside
live one day at a time.
Now we're driving around town
in my shitty little car
got the windows rolled down
who knew we'd
ever make it this far
Drivin' around
in my shitty little car.

Riding on a Lion

We got no
electricity
there's enough between us
to light a whole city
With us we don't need money
we don't care about time
we are our own currency
we'll be just fine
Riding on a lion X4
With my little ocean eyes X2
I'm running
but i can't see to
catch my breath
when i'm around you
Our life together
is a beautiful song
we don't need no chords
for a harmony this strong
Riding on a lion X4
With my little ocean eyes X5

Little Man

I remember the phone call
i was cooking at work
you were two months early
we were all so worried about you
my little man
my little man
I hopped into my car
just as fast as i could
drove three hours to see you
walked into the room and i cried
for you my little man
my little man
You were so beautiful
cradled in your daddy's arms
i saw the way he looked at you
knew you'd never see any harm
cause you're our
little man
our little man
You're one year old today
just can't find the words to say
how proud i am
of you my
little man
my little man
my little man little man little man
You we're so beautiful
cradled in your daddy's arms.

Happiness

You are so
very far away
call you up on the phone
and i don't know what to say.
Hi, how's your day?
heard the weather down there is fine
oh, my life? I don't know
to be honest or tell a lie
Lyin' in my bed
i begin to pray
for all my wishes
from day to day
For you to realize
for you to open your eyes
and see me
for what i can be
But for now
my only wish
is for your
happiness.

Beautiful Soul

It makes me feel so good
the way you look at me
we are just people livin' in this world
trying to be free
i feel your thoughts
creeping into my head
It feels so good just to be happy
wouldn't you agree?
it's the small things in life that make you realize
you got it good
your little ones sittin' round the table
eating home made food.
You could sit around wishing for
fame and money and all of those things
or you could smile at a stranger
see how much happiness it brings
we are just different people
trying to be free
It makes me feel so good
the way you look at me
you have sucha beautiful soul
i feel it creeping into my body
and i know you know
and i don't mind
and i don't mind
and i don't mind.
