Lyrics
Keep me in your Smile
I've been carrying storms in my pocket, waiting on the thunder to pass
When you turn the room with a small, brave laugh, suddenly the dark lost track
If tonight is all we're given, I don't want to waste a line
Say the simple thing out loud, you're the reason light is mine
Keep me in your smile tonight, let the corners of your eyes hold mine
If the world spins out of time, we'll lean into the light and try
If I only get one vow to write, I'll spend it here
Keep me in your smile tonight
You trace a little sunrise on my wrist
Promise me a minute without fears
Every quiet, it'll be okay
Your kiss turns gravity to something we can steal
If the future's just a rhythm, let our footsteps learn the path
Say the easy truth again, you are shelter to my heart
Keep me in your smile tonight, let the corners of your eyes hold mine
If the world spins out of time, we'll lean into the light and try
If I only get one vow to write, I'll spend it here
Keep me in your smile tonight
I was always bracing for goodbye
You taught me how to laugh and stay
So raise the room, breathe in the sky
Key up, hands up, let's live it all the way
Keep me in your smile tonight
Every little silver line shines bright
If the world spins out of time, we'll ride the rush and color outside the line
Keep me in your smile tonight
I'll spend it here
Keep me in your smile tonight
Tonight
In your smile
Tonight
You are Mine
You, my mind, thinkin' there's another road to try
Countin' all the maybes underneath our sky
But every time you wander, my heartbeat pulls you near
I'm the quiet in the thunder, the truth you need to hear
I won't beg or borrow, I'll simply draw the mind
If love is my drafter, then say it, claim it, mine
You are mine, don't even think about it
You are mine, can't live a day without it
Every beat in my heart is keepin' time
You are mine, yeah, you are mine
No glitter, no pretending
Your light already shows
I read it in your breathing, the way your rhythm flows
Don't wander to the edges for something undefined
What you're chasing in the distance is right here, now
You are mine, don't even think about it
You are mine, can't live a day without it
Every beat in my heart is keepin' time
You are mine, yeah, you are mine
Don't you think, don't you try, don't you doubt it, no
Feelings can't switch minds, can't live without it
You are mine, don't even think about it
You are mine, can't live a day without it
Every beat in my heart is keepin' time
You are mine, yeah, you are mine
Don't even think about it
Thank you for watching
Get it Together
I clear the table of all the words we didn't need
Lay the armor down and let the moment lead
A line across the page becomes a brand new start
It's time to get it together, I tell my heart
We've said a thousand things that never fixed a thing
But soft apologies can teach a bell to ring
The clock inside our ribs keeps tapping out the hour
It's time to pull it together, take back the power
Tell me can we reset, face the day
Every heartbeat says begin today
Get it together
Ready, feel the rush begin
Hold your breath, now choose the storm we're in
Get it together, whoa
Hands on the table, hearts where the truth can start
Get it together, whoa
Maybe we've stumbled, but we know our part
Step to the beat, move to the beat
Get it together, whoa
If we speak, instead of keeping score tonight
We can build again and turn the flicker bright
Start with one small step, then two, then ten
Little steps in tempo, start and start again
Get it together, whoa
Raise what was broken, let the daylight fly
Get it together, whoa
When more than the pieces, watch them realign
Get it together, whoa
Get it together, whoa
Get it together
Give love a Chance
I used to keep a lock on every open door
Counting all the reasons to stay on the shore
Then you drew a lighthouse in a single glance
Saying breathe a little deeper, give love a chance
I've been living in parentheses, afraid to underline
But your heartbeat finds the measure, pulls my doubts in time
Give love a chance, let the daylight in
Let the walls fall quiet, let the truth begin
If courage is a whisper, I can hear it in your hands
Hold me while we try it, give love a chance
I was filing every memory, wonder maybe later on
Saving all my colors till the moment had gone
You painted over silence with a simple dance
Saying step a little closer, give love a chance
Every almost story starts to find its rhyme
Footsteps on the pavement, landing right on time
Give love a chance, let the daylight in
Let the walls fall quiet, let the truth begin
If courage is a whisper, I can hear it in your hands
Hold me while we try it, give love a chance
No vows too big tonight, no fireworks to prove
Just a door that's standing open if we choose to move
Give love a chance, write our names in light
On the window silver, in the quiet night
If courage is a whisper, I can hear it in your hands
Stay with me and try it, give love a chance
Stay with me and try it, give love a chance
Give love a chance
A little Poem about You
I could write a little poem with the city in its rhyme
Fold a quiet corner of the night and call it ours in time
I'd list the tiny miracles you carry when you smile
Like traffic lights that learn to breathe and rest a little while
A kettle's hush, a window's glow, the way you say my name
I'd stitch them into coplicks till the dawn repeats the same
And every line I try to write just circles back to you
A cadence made of heartbeat falling right on to and to
If I wrote a poem about you, it would start with stay
A line about your laughter turning winter into May
If I wrote a poem about you, every word rings true
But poems feel too small for everything you do
I'd rhyme the way your hands unfold a room and make it new
How footsteps find a rhythm when they're keeping pace with you
No gilded metaphors or fireworks to prove
Just a simple stanza where we fit and where we move
So let the ink be midnight, let the margin be the sky
I'll underline forever with the way you meet my eyes
If I wrote a poem about you, it would start with stay
A line about your laughter turning winter into May
If I wrote a poem about you, every word rings true
But poems feel too small for everything you do
sax solo
Maybe words can't hold it, maybe music can
So take this little melody and read it with my hands
Here's my little poem about you, written note by note
Horn lines in the margins, all the love I couldn't quote
If I wrote a poem about you, this song would be the proof
Every rhyme resolves to us beneath the same bright roof
A little poem about you
Now it's You
I've been chasing daylight through a thousand city streets
Talking big and walking slow, counting half complete
Then you found the downbeat, where my timing always missed
One look set the clock right, everything like this
I might almost fall away, lining up in twos
Every sign that I ignored, finally points to you
Now it's you, yeah, it's you, it's you Heart snaps in the pocket like it always
Knew All the noise turns melody, the skyline turns
Blue After all this time, now it's you
Used to keep my guard up, every door half closed
Living in parentheses, never getting close
Then your laugh hit first beat, pulled me to the light
Suddenly the long road felt exactly right
Green lights in the rearview, future coming through
Every step in tempo, when I walk with you Now it's you, yeah, it's you, it's you
Heart snaps in the pocket like it always knew All the noise turns melody, the skyline turns
Blue After all this time, now it's you
No borrowed fate, no rolling dice Just the door swung wide at the perfect price
I said maybe, you said start Beat one, landed in my heart
Now it's you, yeah, it's you, it's you Heart snaps in the pocket like it always
Knew Every wrong note settles, every chord rings
True, after all this time, now it's you Pulled me all the way through, I was out of
Rhythm Till the day I met you, after all this time
Now it's you
Kept Looking, Found You
I walk the island evenings, learning how to wait
Harbor lights and puddles, writing notes of fate
Every door said maybe, every night said soon
I kept looking through the rain in June
I told my heart to hold its line
To read the sky for one clear sign
I kept looking and I found you
A quiet yes the moment you came through
All the broken maps finally told the truth
I kept looking and I found you
Coffee on the ferry, silver on the wake
Empty rooms grew smaller with the steps we take
You spoke my name so softly that the night turned blue
I kept looking till the light was you
Now every street breathes easy air
The future waits because you're there
No miracle of thunder, just a steady dawn
Two hands, one a harbor and the shadows gone
I kept looking and I found you
The quiet yes that pulled my whole life through
Every time I turned home when I saw your view
I kept looking and I found you
I kept looking and I found you
The quiet yes that pulled my whole life through
Every time I turned home when I saw your view
I kept looking and I found you
I kept looking and I found you
Everything Changed after you
I kept my coffee quiet, morning's undergrey
Talking to the calendar, crossing out the days
Empty rooms and echoes, learning how to wait
Living like a headline, maybe someday late
Then the light been dippin' in the ordinary room
Some small door opened, clearing out the glue
Everything changed, when you came
Heart found the rhythm in a name
All that was driftin' fell in place
Everything changed, when you came
I stopped counting failures, put the past away
You turned quiet corners, in songs I played
Streetlights look like sunrise, even after two
Home became a feeling, every time it's you
Now the clock keeps time with how your laughter moves
Every step beside you is a line that proves
Everything changed, when you came
Heart found the rhythm in a name
All that was driftin' fell in place
Everything changed, when you came
No map, no perfect timing to the letter
I was standing still, then you made it still feel better
Everything changed, when you came
Heart found the rhythm in a name
All that was driftin' fell in place
Everything changed, when you came
Everything changed, when you came
Everything changed, when you came
Everything changed, when you came
When I Finally met You
I walked through quiet seasons
Keeping questions out of sight
Till a turn of sudden daylight made the ordinary bright
I traced a map of maybes in the margins of my view
Then the page became a morning when I finally met you
If there's a way to hold this light
Then let it carry us tonight
When I finally met you every road made sense
Every tender moment found its consequence
Hand in hand forever feels like something we could do
When I finally finally met you
I kept a room for hope with just a window and a view
A folded note of faith that someday it would point to you
Now every street moves softly like a melody come true
And the skyline writes our story: I belong with you
We don't need marble vows or crowded rooms
Just two quiet hearts that share the same tune
When I finally met you every road made sense
Every tender moment found its consequence
Stay with me forever feels like something we can do
Because I finally finally met you
I should have told her I loved her
I should have told her, but my tongue got tied
Like a kite in the wind, too scared to glide
Her shadow walked away while I stayed behind
Words are buried, but they haunt me still
Like echoes trapped in a hollow hill
I should have told her that I loved her
Should have said she's my world, no other
Now the silence screams louder than thunder
I should have told her, oh, I should have told her
She smiled like a sunrise, bright and wild
But I held my breath, let the moment slide
Now I chase a memory, nowhere to hide
The clock keeps ticking, but time won't heal
The cracks I've made, the pain I feel
I should have told her that I loved her
Should have said she's my world, no other
Now the silence screams louder than thunder
I should have told her, oh, I should have told her
I should have told her that I loved her
Should have said she's my world, no other
Now the silence screams louder than thunder
I should have told her, oh, I should have told her
That I loved her
Should have said she's my world, no other
Now the silence screams louder than thunder
I should have told her, oh, I should have told her
I should have told her, I should have told her
I should have told her
I should have told her
I'am Right for You
From the moment I saw you, I just knew
There's a spark, there's a light shining straight from you
Don't need a reason, don't need a clue
No second guessing, I'm right for you
Every sign is pointing toward my way
You and I were written clear as day
Right for you, feel it too
From the first hello, I knew it's true
No doubt in my heart, I'm right for you
Every sign is pointing toward my way
You and I were written clear as day
Right for you, feel it too
From the first hello, I knew it's true
No doubt in my heart, I'm right for you
You can try to explain it, but there's no need
We're a perfect match, it's guaranteed
No map, no plan, still I somehow knew
Every road I took led me right to you
Every sign is pointing straight my way
You and I were written clear as day
Right for you, feel it too
From the first hello, I knew it's true
No doubt in my heart, I'm right for you
It's a brand New Day
The night is gone, the clouds have cleared
The city waits, the sky appears
Another chance, a brand new start
To chase the dream that's in my heart
The coffee's hot, the streets are wide
The river's gold at morning time
Every step I take today
Feels like the world is mine to play
It's a brand new day, I'm standing tall
Every little dream, I'm chasing them all
The past is gone, the future's mine
With the sun in my face, I feel so fine
It's a brand new day, oh it's a brand new day
The horns are calling, time to move
I've found my light, I've found my groove
The whole wide world feels fresh and new
It's a brand new day, I'm standing tall
Every little dream, I'm chasing them all
The past is gone, the future's mine
With the sun in my face, I feel so fine
It's a brand new day, oh it's a brand new day
No more shadows, no more rain
Only sunshine in my veins
I'll dance this street, I'll take my chance
This brand new day is my song, my dance
It's a brand new day, I'm standing tall
Every little dream, I'm chasing them all
The past is gone, the future's mine
With the sun in my face, I feel so fine
It's a brand new day, oh it's a brand new day
Thanks for watching
Stockholm Nights
City lights uncertainty fade into the dawn
We've been laughing all night, now the quiet's come on
Every song in the air, every glass in our hand
Reminds me lots of moments you've got to understand
Can we stand in the rain, cobblestone shine
We're just stories in motion, caught in this time
If tomorrow feels far, then tonight is the stage
We can dance like the city is ours to engage
Life is a party, take it while you can
Hold on to the fire, don't let go of the plan
Stockholm nights, they're calling our name
And we'll never have this moment the same
From the cave by the boats to the lights that strand again
Every turn is a song, every face is engaging
The laughter spills out of the cafes and bars
Like we're chasing the midnight beneath northern stars
Life is a party, take it while you can
Hold on to the fire, don't let go of the plan
Stockholm nights, they're calling our name
And we'll never have this moment the same
Let's not wait for someday
Someday might never come
Heart beats the only drum
Life is a party, take it while you can
Hold on to the fire, don't let go of the plan
Stockholm nights, they're calling our name
And we'll never have this moment the same
In the heart of the city
On the soft golden lights
We're alive in this moment
In these Stockholm nights
Thanks for watching
Keep Trying
I've been down on both my knees Begging truth from broken dreams
But every fall taught me one thing You don't stop, you learn to sing
The road gets long, the nights grow cold You lose your grip, you lose your hope
But I've got fire in my chest And I won't settle for anything less
Keep trying, keep climbing Don't let the dark steal the light you're finding
Today, tomorrow, through the crying You hold on strong, keep trying
They'll say give up, they always do But they don't see what lives in you
One more breath, one more mile Someday pain turns into style
Keep trying, keep rising There's more to you than compromising
Through storms and silence, through denying You hold on tight, keep trying
It ain't about the finish line It's how you burn, how you shine
One more step, when all feels gone That's the spark that pulls you on
Keep trying, keep shining Even when the world stops aligning
You're built from something undying So lift your head, keep trying
Keep trying, keep shining Even when the world stops aligning
You're built from something undying So lift your head, keep trying
Keep trying, keep shining Even when the world stops aligning
You're built from something undying So lift your head, keep trying
Keep trying, keep shining Even when the world stops aligning
You're built from something undying So lift your head, keep trying
Thanks for watching
