2 Songs. 2 AM.

(1) Keith Urban - You'll Think Of Me

A song shared with Daniel at 2am. I've been listening to this for hours. No fancy footwork, outlandish costumes nor extravagant setups needed. A good voice coupled with awesome guitar skills will suffice. =)



I woke up early this morning around 4am
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate
I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep
But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake
Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms
I've been trying my best to get along
But that's OK
There's nothing left to say, but

Chorus :
Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need them
Take your space and all your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me

I went out driving trying to clear my head
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
Is not knowing what we could have been
What we should have been, so

(Repeat Chorus)

Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'm gonna be alright
While you're sleeping with your pride
Wishing I could hold you tight
I'll be over you
And on with my life

(Repeat Chorus)

So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need them
Take your space and all your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we got nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah

And you're gonna think of me
Oh someday, Baby, someday.

(2) Better Than Ezra - Our Finest Year

And likewise, Daniel shared this song with me. Love the drums on this one! =)



I am bending
Made of steel
I am stumbling
Towards something real
How can you forget this feeling
Of standing straight while the world is reeling?

Don't leave me here alone
You're as close as it gets to home

Don't look down
You might fall
Life made rookies of us all
In our finest year
Don't wait up
We'll be fine
Somehow we might get it right
In our finest year

I am hopeful
Full of doubt
And I am trying to work this whole thing out
So how can you just sit there sleeping
When your worlds on fire
And your chest is beating?

And I want to think you feel the same

(Repeat Chorus)

In this moment
While you're breathing
If the future leaves you needing
Will you be the one who stayed?
As your life just slipped away?

Don't leave me here alone
You're as close as it gets to home

I'll be there if you fall
Love made suckers of us all

Don't look down
You might fall
Life made rookies of us all
In our finest year
Don't wait up
We'll be fine
Somehow we might get it right
In our finest year

Do you like them too? =)
