Cocaine (DEMO)

I got a bottle of whiskey
staring me in the face on the table
it is saying please please please
please drink me all by yourself
I got a group of rowdy girlfriends
staring me in the face in my doorway
yelling at me please please please
please come play
put away your broken heart for
another day
Let's do some muthafuckin cocaine
to help us stay up all night
and run around the town
find us some
new young guns
to get me to come around
So I can forget about you
cuz I can't forget about you
so I will get drunk with my friends
till every cent of our hard-earned
money has been spent
On some muthafuckin cocaine
To help us stay up all night
run around the town
we'll go down
when the sun comes up
who needs love when you've got drugs
Hey Hey
I got a guitar
staring me in the face four in the morning
she is saying drink that whiskey in your cup
get some help from that good stuff
so I can stay up all night and
write more songs about you
cuz I got more songs about you than
I can write alone tonight
gonna need some help from
my good friend old lady white
I need some muthafuckin cocaine

I can feel it on my fingers
Breathe it into my lungs
Traces of it linger
On my tongue
The heaviness, the bitterness
The emptiness it hums
Leaves our faces drawn and worn
Like the end is gonna come
I could sing you the blues
but it wouldn't seem right
See I got some news
I've seen the light
You look like sunshine
Through the rain
You bring me pleasure
Through the pain
I can feel it on my fingers
Breathe it into my lungs
Traces of it linger
Like whiskey On my tongue
And Baby you will meet somebody new
But that is alright
Cuz baby I got you all the time
I just look up
And I see my sunshine
Through the rain
You bring me pleasure
Through the pain
Sing it in my ears

Rain and Wine

Maybe the rain won't come down so hard tonight
Maybe the rain won't drown us tonight
Come inside I've got a bottle of good wine
Come inside I've got a bottle of good times
I've got you and that's all I need tonight
Usually I'd spend a night like this alone
Listening to the thunder roll
It's nice to have a familiar smile around
To smile back at
You know you're pretty to look at
From afar
And right up close
Your face reminds me of something I don't know
But I'd like to know
Forever
You've got the nicest face I think I've ever seen
At least after a good bottle of wine.

They say that you can come back
But you can never go home
They say that you can come back
But you can never go home
What they say may be true
But I'll always be home with you
They say home is where the heart is
For now its where I lay my head
Home is where the heart is
But now its where I lay my head
My head may be gone, its true
But my heart says I'm home with you
In my heart I'm home with you
They say all roads lead back home
But at times you'll lose your way
They say all roads lead back home
But at times you'll lose your way
I get lost sometimes, its true
But I'll find my way back to you
I'll always come home to you
They say that I'm a liar
That I will cheat and break your heart
You're a fool to love a liar
Who will leave and break your heart
What they say just ain't true
I'll always go home with you
I'll always come home to you
I'll always be home with you
They say that you can come back
But you can never go home
They say that you can come back
But you can never go home
What they say just ain't true
Cuz I'll always be home with you
In my heart I'm home with you
I'll always be home with you

Your face is sunshine baby
Can't bear to see you cry
I know I'm leavin' you again
To chase these silly dreams of mine
The clouds are scrawlin out the same old tired lines
Goodbye I love you Darlin kiss my lips just one last time
As my plane begins to taxi
As your taxi leaves my plane
I am with you in the backseat
I'll be with you on the train
Wave and smile and bless me as we pull away
With you I leave my little heart,
I leave my heart in brooklyn in the rain
And when you get home baby
Please promise you won't cry
I promise I will call and text
and photograph and write
Gotta keep the lifeline open
To reach what I left behind
Keep it safe and warm and dry
Because without it I will die
Though it may be sunny here in Sturgeon Bay
A cloud covers my name
Because I left my heart in Brooklyn in the rain
Bridges, boundaries and borderlines
They may keep me from you but only for a time
Keep my treasure warm and dry while I'm away
And I'll be home before you know it
To get my heart I left in Brooklyn in the rain
Left my heart in Bushwick, Dumbo, Bed Stuy. London
