Transplant
a man got into an accident
and he died while i lay in the hospital
why he died - i may never know
but his life is now my own, my own, my own
how do i live like this
with the heart of another man?
how do i live like this?
i may never understand
well, his wife - she gave me a call
and she asked me to go out for a walk
and she cried - as she looked into my eyes
‘cause he was gone now - but, somehow still alive, alive, alive
how do i live like this
with his heart inside my chest
how do i live like this?
how could i be so blessed
well the day - you know it turned as black as night
and his eyes - they were reaching for the sky
why he died - i may never know
but, his life is now my own, my own, my own
how do i live like this
with the heart of another man?
how do i live like this?
i may never understand
how do i live like this
with his heart inside my chest
how do i live like this?
how could i be so blessed

Turned Out Like You

Turned Out Like You
turned out like you - turned out like you
all alone with a bottle of wine
drinkin’ ‘em down - one at a time
you never told me it would feel like this (never)
never told me just what i’d miss
but, i’ve packed my bags and i’m moving again
here’s a brand new start with the same old end
turned out like you - turned out like you
all alone - i’ve been losing my mind
watching those i love leave one at a time
you never told me it would feel like this (never)
never told me just what i’d miss
but, i’ve packed my bags and i’m moving again
here’s a brand new start with the same old end
maybe if i showed you how i’m like you
maybe you'd come back - back to me
maybe if i showed you how much i love you
maybe you would love me like i love you

So Fast
well, she got into the car
raised her tiny voice
and asked
she got into the car
raised her tiny voice
and asked
where you going boy so fast
where you going boy so fast
well, i put my heavy hand
behind her pretty neck
and laughed
i put my heavy hand
behind her pretty neck
and laughed
you know i don’t know the path
you know i don’t know the path
but i look to the left to the right
through the day and through the night
and i want it so bad
yeah, i look to the left to the right
through the day and through the night
and i want it so bad
god knows i don’t know
god knows i don’t know
god knows i don’t know
well, she got into the car
raised her tiny voice
and asked

raised her tiny voice
and asked
where you going boy so fast
where you going boy so fast
well, god knows i don’t know

Longest Year
this old house is hot
i never feel the breeze that once would cool
these walls are just a memory now of you
and all i’ve done wrong
the hope we had have died
i wanted you here and by my side
but, suddenly i went and lost my mind
and now you’re gone
i’ve made some bad choices i suppose
this is one of them that has left me alone, and
this has been the longest year of my life
if i had known it would turn out like this
if i had known just how much i’d miss you
this has been the longest year of my life
this old house gets hot
i never feel the breeze that once would cool
these walls are just a memory now of you
and all i’ve done wrong
the hope we had have died
i wanted you here and by my side
but, suddenly i went and lost my mind
and now you’re gone
the sky is more grey and the birds are more black
the sky is more grey and the birds are more black
the sky is more grey and the birds are more black
you don't know how much i want you back and
this has been the longest year
this has been the longest year
this has been the longest year of my

Best Shot
gave it my best shot
pulled back the string from the bow
steady as she goes
straight as an arrow
well, i lost my mind - never thought we'd be apart
well, i lost my mind - never mean to break your heart
this is how you know
you put your body in the flame
nothing you control
this they called “a test of faith”
well, i lost my mind - never thought we'd be apart
well, i lost my mind - never mean to break your heart
faith can move a notion
but, not if you are in the waves
i loved you by the ocean
but, soon the waves became my grave
