Songs to Make You Fall in Love With Tevin, and If I'm Lucky, Maybe Me Too

by The Catalpa View

And if I Can just make it To Garland I'll come Back down And if I Can just make it Outta my thoughts Sure baby I'll come over I'll change Outta my Nikes I'll change myself I'm running Up The Hill I'm running
2.
I'm gonna find you And you're gonna find me too You're as beautiful as the day is long The moon sings to me, the sun monologues I saw the crescent in the window From the corner of my eye You were fully in my view Like you were under a streetlight And we fell into each other Like rapids on a river All patience had been eroded We're going swimmin
3.
I want you to stay close And it's true, I was born here But this country is all stolen land I think it's probably better to stay where you arrived But you wanna move away (to L.A.) I think I discovered my reason For being put here on this planet On stolen land, it's true, I'm not walking it back I was put here to stop you in your tracks But you wanna move away (to L.A.) I'm here in flyover country Why would I trust someone who chooses to ignore me Flying overhead with the sky full of stars Become the meteorite landing in my front yard But you wanna move away (to L.A.)
4.
You told me you loved me for the first time While I was driving you to the airport The growing distance looming closer I was happy you finally said it And I would jump From the Buck O'Neil Bridge for you You called me after you landed To tell me of your safe arrival And your voice sounded like a sunset Red sky at night much to my delight
5.
It's really easy to party It's really easy to get down It's really easy to party It's really easy to get down If I turn down the lights low Until my vision fails me With the music up so loud I can't tell that I'm lonely It's really easy to party It's really easy to get down It's really easy to party It's really easy to get down We both know a picture Is only a moment captured We have to quit lying about Everything that we do
6.
I went to sleep in a bed that was empty After brushing my teeth before a mirror that only held me Why'd you have to move across the country I wish some of your things I would have saved After waking in a bed that was still halfmade The only place more lonely is a grave The fruit can't be that much sweeter in California The grass can't be that much greener than what was before ya And I know I'm not everything in your world But you're everything in mine So maybe reconsider if you find the time I know you didn't leave to hector Opportunities you couldn't finds here But what if I'm your greener pasture

You're a weeping willow Your words not mine Standing on the riverbank Reminds you of the time That you were in the ocean In the middle of the night And it was so dark and empty Gave you a real good fright You're insignificant And you're small Again those are your words Those things I'd never call You are powerful You are strong You're just like the ocean I'm standing in awe
9.
I have a problem Only you can help me with I have a problem Only you can solve Okay maybe I'm exaggerating But I could still use a hand Friend of mine Please commit a crime It's not life and death But I'm pulling out my hair I have trouble with stress And I have hypertension So come through this once And you'll be my superhero I"ll pay my karmic debt off in time Please commit a crime

I love you like a sandbag loves a flood There's pressure but there's purpose I love you till the rain lets up Let's hope I last that long
