Jeremy / HI54LOFI If you ever need to get the ‘lovey dovey’ feelings flowing (i.e. you need to sort out ANOTHER valentines day or anniversary gift), this is a good one to put in the headphones. Favorite track: I Told You It Wasn't Easy.

This is the start of something good This really hurts more than it should Could I have made it much more clear? Stay over here, stay over here This is the start of something sweet I can't stop looking at my feet Could I have made it much more clear? Stay over here, stay over here This is the start of something right My mind won't let me sleep at night Could I have made it much more clear? Stay over here, stay over here This is the end of happiness Oh my, I never would have guessed… Could I have made it much more clear? Stay over here

Come Again? 03:52
Face against the ground Way more lost than found “Have I told you this place is nice?” Yes, I think that you've told me twice Both hands in my pocket And I don't feel like talkin' “Have I told you this song is fine?” Yes, I guess, but it's not mine Come again? Please come again Come again? Please do come again So what’s it all about? I'm here quiet as a mouse “Can't you say what you wanna say?” Not if I would talk to you all day Come again? Please come again Come again? Please do come again

We were happy as the wind We saw things we've never seen Like two full moons in a row Right before that hipster show I will learn to play the harp I will learn it from the start And she said shoes are like crack But tomorrow we'll be back I wanna give you a thousand kisses in Cardiff I wanna give you a thousand kisses in Cardiff Green, green grass Do you wanna take the wildest guess? Going up and coming down I will show you all around... my heart I wanna give you a thousand kisses in Cardiff I wanna give you a thousand kisses in Cardiff Like when you gave me a thousand kisses in Cardiff I wanna give you a thousand kisses in Cardiff

Still, I had so much I could say Still, I haven't much left today We will never be, once again We will never be, once again We will never be, once again Once you are gone Do you want to be me? “I have a dream in my mind…” Or do you want me to be?

It's only pop and roll now I'm gonna make it somehow No more too longs No more you're wrongs, 'cause… I’m free, I'm high on love songs I’m free, I'm high on love songs, yeah, yeah It's only three chords and play I'm gonna do it everyday No more you're lates No more get straights, 'cause... I’m free, I'm high on love songs I’m free, gonna write a million songs I’m free, I'm high on love songs I’m free, gonna sing a million songs, yeah, yeah I'll show you the taste of my kiss I'll be the Universe's Miss No more too longs No more you're wrongs, 'cause... I’m free, I'm high on love songs I’m free, gonna write a million songs I’m free, I'm high on love songs I’m free, gonna sing a million songs, yeah, yeah

Go Back 05:02
My feet in the sand They walk to the sea Do you think you can see The sunset through me? The waves keep on coming They take part of me The wind blows in my ear Where you'd like to be?... If you would make me go back I'd do it all the same If you would make me go back I would go back again The seagulls above me Some laugh and some cry And a distant whale sings Would you like to hide?... If you would make me go back I'd do it all the same If you would make me go back I would go back again If you would make me go back I'd do it all the same If you would make me go back I'd fall for you again

I guess what you say is true Someday I will get it too I guess what they say is true Someday we will get it too She wants a room with a view Someday I will get it too They want a room with a view Someday we will get it too, get it too What's this that we've got? Tell me 'cause I've just forgot Please, tell me, dear I'll wait for you, then disappear What have we got? Tell me 'cause I've just forgot Please, tell me, dear I'll wait for you, then disappear

I told you it wasn't easy When you said you'd make me cry I said, I'm always too busy But please do feel free to try Then you took me to the movies You were right there by my side Although everyone was crying I was asleep all the time It wasn't easy, but you insisted “You can't blame a girl for tryin'…” I said, now I'm really too busy But it's only you I have on my mind… I told you it wasn't easy When you said you'd make me cry I said, I'm always too busy But please do feel free to try It wasn't easy, but you insisted “You can't blame a girl for tryin'…” I said, now I'm really too busy But it's only you I have on my mind… Then you took me your to bedroom You were right there by my side I told you it wasn't easy But you said, I'll make you mine But you said, I'll make you mine Yeah, you said I'll make you mine

That's all I'm asking for I won't ask for anything more That's all I wanted to be And you will be just like me He thinks he's got it But he ignores If you can't give it away Then it isn't yours You think he's got it But he ignores If you can't give it away Then it isn't yours Maybe that's easy to do Maybe I can do it too It's not hard to understand That everything will have to end, so... He thinks he's got it But he ignores If you can't give it away Then it isn't yours You think he's got it But he ignores If you can't give it away Then it isn't yours Then it isn't yours

Word of mouth What's it all about? Tell me, tell me, tell me Mouth to mouth In and out Save me, save me, save me Watch your mouth Talent scout Pay no mind to what you see North and south Twist and shout Close your eyes and dance... with me

Some Words 05:46
I never wanted it all, you see? I never wanted you and me Never wanted to make up your mind But now I wanna make you mine Some words feel better in the morning I don't want all you give I don't want to believe But if you don't make up your mind I am gonna make you mine Some words feel better in the morning Leaving it all the same Meaning it all I say Why don't you make up your mind? I will never make you mine Some words feel better in the morning

I know what we will do This is just how it always was I will be sure I look out for you And you will look out for us Would you be that boy in my dreams? Would you? I've been dreaming a lot... Would you be the boy in my dreams? 'Cause I don't know what to do With my dreams anymore I don't know what to do with my dreams I know what we will do This is how things always were I will be sure I look out for you And you will be double sure Would you be that boy in my dreams? Would you? I've been dreaming a lot... Would you be the boy in my dreams? 'Cause I don't know what to do With my dreams anymore I don't know what to do with my dreams anymore I don't know what to do with my dreams

If Only 03:08
Why do I love you for? Only 'cause you've loved me before? You say it's all said and done And you are not the only one I've never felt so lonely... Oh, if only... if only... How could I love you a little more? Maybe so... and if... and or... You say it's all said and done And you are not the only one I've never felt so lonely... Oh, if only... if only... If I knew life was okay I would have never made her go away You said it's all said and done And you were not the only one I've never felt so lonely... Oh, if only... if only... But love is not enough
