Melt Away 03:57
Who blocked out the sunlight today? Oh yeah it was me, I closed my eyes and it went away. How's that working for us? Tell me now, baby how is it working for us? Well it's alright we can be like ice, and just melt away we're gonna melt away I've seen you here before You've got that look in your eye Like a kid in a candy store As the world comes to an end I'll be playing my guitar, you can call me a friend. Well It's alright we can watch the ice, as it melts away it's gonna melt away It's alright we'll be just fine if we will all step out of line and forget about very nice, very nice, very nice forget about very nice, very nice, very nice. Melt away we're gonna melt away we're gonna melt away, hey Melt away Melt away, gonna melt away, gonna melt away with you melt away, gonna melt away, gonna melt away with you now melt away, gonna melt away, gonna melt away with you melt away, gonna melt away, gonna melt away, with you now

My Star 04:23
I see you everyday, see you everyday You're still so far away, still so far away You are my star Shooting so far away far away You know your wrong from right, yeah, you know your wrong from right. You know for Day for Night, know your Day for Night. And Bobcaygeon is not coming down. You are my star shooting so far away Far away You are my star shooting so far driving my car shooting so far away far away far away far away

Unadorned 03:22
I heard you had a bitter year Far from where the mountain peaks Far from any lucky streak A valley of tears creating a little lake and I'm skipping stones to pass the time away I heard you had a bitter day not much about it that I can say they tell me 'well just don't be that way' we've all got to carry our own weight and I'm singing songs to pass the time away You unadorned and true unadorned I once thought it was the end of the line turns out baby that I have more time so if you've got yours I got my spine moving forward no one gets left behind and we're marching on to pass the time away You unadorned and true unadorned for a few unadorned
