Driving high, driving low Where will I go tonight? Frozen time, frozen mind Traffic passing by, I hear your laughter Wash my hands of our sin Still your fragrance on my skin You grow and grow, so slow I'm lost inside of me Breathe with me Breathe with me Breathe with me Then let me go my way Giving up, giving in It's not that easy now Memory broken free How the light shines through your face Washed my hands of our sin Still your fragrance on my skin You grow and grow, so slow I'm lost inside of me Breathe with me Breathe with me Breathe with me Then let me go my way =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- “Breathe with Me” Music & Lyrics by Athena Andreadis/Adam Levy/Sean David Moody

Washing Day 05:07
Walking past my lover's house Bitter taste, it fills my mouth Too much whiskey, too much smoke Last night's tears hang on my coat Now the rain has stopped its fall Street shines like a mirror ball Sun comes on, it's just enough Watch the flowers waking up It's washing day, it's washing day Colors run and fade away It's washing day, it's washing day Feel the threads like new again Big machines all in a row A mother with her child in tow Change old paper for silver coin And lose myself in all this noise Waking from a peaceful rest Counting down, a minute left Cotton stops its jog in place Hold it warm against my face It's washing day, it's washing day Colors run and fade away It's washing day, it's washing day Feel the threads like new again What's this in my dungarees? In my back pocket, curled and creased My old notebook filled with you Our secrets now just streaks of blue It's all a mess, but beautiful The emptiness a gift to hold Write a poem with you in mind And leave the memory behind It's washing day, it's washing day Colors run and fade away It's washing day, it's washing day Feel the threads like new again’ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- “Washing Day” Music & Lyrics by Adam Levy/Amber Rubarth

Never gonna learn my lesson now Never gonna turn this life around I know Oh, lord, I know Never gonna work for steady pay Never gonna work the livelong day I know Oh, lord, I know There's a light that shines for me There's a light that shines for me Never gonna call this house a home Never gonna need no telephone I know Oh, lord, I know Never going back to my home town Never gonna put my anchor down I know Oh, lord, I know There's a light that shines for me There's a light that shines for me And when I lose myself at the point of no return I find a way to laugh at the bridges I have burned, I have burned Never gonna buy no diamond ring Never gonna promise anything I know Oh, lord, I know Never gonna tell me I belong Everything I have is in this song I know Oh, lord, I know There's a light that shines for me There's a light that shines for me There's a light that shines for me There's a light that shines for me =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- “There’s a Light” Music & Lyrics by Adam Levy/Geoff Martyn

Friday never turned to Saturday Maybe all the clocks have lost their way Spinning round in circles, every which way Woke up thinking I would find you there Spoke up—echoes in the empty air Talking never got us anywhere anyway Listening for the sound of your footsteps All that I’m hoping to hear Ticking like a wound-up time-bomb ’til you appear This must be the longest day of the year [ guitar solo ] Shadows crawl across the kitchen floor Bottles—pour myself a little more Wonder, baby, if you just won’t come anyway Listening for the sound of your footsteps All that I’m hoping to hear Ticking like a wound-up time-bomb ’til you appear Listening for the sound of your footsteps All that I’m hoping to hear Ticking like a wound-up time-bomb ’til you appear This must be the longest day of the year This must be the longest day of the year This must be the longest day of the year =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- “Longest Day of the Year” Music & Lyrics by Jen Clapp/Adam Levy

I been sleeping on needles and pins Feel like a stranger in my own skin Oh, I never, never been alone like this Maybe I should turn the radio on But I fall to pieces when they play that song Oh, I never, never been alone like this Oh, I never, never been alone like this Crying doesn’t do me any good Just a shadow where my baby stood Flip through the pages of my little black book Nothing by strangers wherever I look Oh, I never, never been alone like this Oh, I never, never been alone like this Oh, I never, never been alone like this =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- “Never Been Alone Like This” Music & Lyrics by Marvin Etzioni/Adam Levy/Craig Northey
