Humboldt Park

You flew home to Humboldt Park
Chicago called your name
I stayed in this little town and here I will remain
Is there a way to redesign this map, so your state touches mine
Cause distance is unkind
We met by the riverside and learned each-others names
Oh I wish that you had stayed for more than just three days
Is there a way to redesign this map, so your state touches mine
Cause distance is unkind
Is there a way to redesign this map, so your hand touches mine
Cause distance is unkind
Cause distance is unkind
Cause distance is unkind
Cause distance is unkind

Meet with You
03:06
|

I have trouble saying no to your good heart
So instead I'll hold it gently in the dark
I have trouble saying yes to solitude
So instead I'll find a time to meet with you
And I know we said goodbye months ago so I'll try not to
I'll try not to
Meet with you
I have trouble letting words escape my mouth
To say my heart is going through its longest drought
I have trouble even laying here with you
I fear you'll learn about the other lover soon
And I know we said goodbye months ago so I'll try not to
I'll try not to
Meet with you but still I do
So you'll come over and ask to stay the night
Before I answer you turn out the lights
And when the morning comes I put up my guard again
When the morning comes we return to discontent
I'll try not to I'll try not to
I'll try not to I'll try not to
And I know we said goodbye months ago so I'll try not to
I'll try not to
Meet with you
But still I do
Still I do
Meet with you

City Lights
03:20
|

She left in the evening
All dressed in white
The stars were stinging shivering bright
And while the train cars pulled her southbound
I hoped her window view was downtown
On the city lights
Though she's long gone now
I feel her here
In the bed we laid in and the empty beers
And when I closed the door behind her
I knew she'd go back to her lover
In the city lights
The city lights her up like how she used to be
When she lived with me
But now all she ever sees are her
City lights

A New Goodbye
03:24
|
|||
I took a plane to a place
where you can't reach me
I thought that I could escape
From your hidden intentions
But then with my bags in my hands
Heading back home
I knew that I hadn't planned
To be missing you dearly
Wishing you could be near me cause
You are always halfway in my heart and halfway in the darkness
You are always halfway in my heart and halfway to the start of
A new goodbye
Now that I'm back in New York
I'm thinking of you
Dragging my feet to your door
With my hopes of reunion
And I can't refuse them cause
You are always halfway in my heart and halfway in the darkness
You are always halfway in my heart and halfway to the start
Of a new goodbye
You are always halfway in my heart and halfway in the darkness
You are always
Always
Always

Through the Gap
03:22
|
|||
I leave the latch undone
And wait for you to walk on through that door
I know that you might not
But still I hope you'll walk on through that door
That door
That door
That old window has broken blinds
Broken blinds that don't quite reach the floor
And through the gap I see
Your checkered shoes standing at my door
My door
My door
My door has been opened by many before
All of the others tracked dirt on the floor
But you I adored
Adored
Adored
That door that door that door
I leave the latch undone and wait for you

Wandering Man
03:57
|
|||
I am a wandering man
I throw ropes to distant lands
And walk on them across the sea
I am a wandering man
I am a travelling man
To Saigon from my homeland
The people here all stare at me
They know I am a travelling man
Its starts when I buckle in
The pilot tells us how far till we land
I read the magazines
The wings start to expand
To expand
Humans such a curious clan
With bird wings on metal cans
And I can't think of a better time
To be a curious man
To be a travelling man
To be a wandering man
