Face The River lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
I am tired of the waiting
I can hear the record playing
But no music, just the needle
Heaven knows just how I feel
Cry, try, and try
Try, try, try
Try to face the river I cannot cross
That's only you and I
All the praying, all the pleading
On my bended knee, heart bleeding
We'll get past this, we'll pull through it
Wild horses couldn't do
Try, try, and try
Try, try, yeah, and try
Try to face the river I cannot cross
That's only you and I
And all the time I gave love
I never got the same love
Looking for signs, throw a line
You were, oh, you were mine
Try, try, and try
Try, try, Lord, I, I try
Try to face the river I cannot cross
That's only you and I, yeah
Try to face the river I cannot cross
That's only you and I
Summertime lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
I might never even know your name
If I hadn't taken half the time
To tell you that I had no shame
That I was gonna make you mine
But I let you be who you've become
Let the others wish they could have some
Let 'em have their bubblegum
While we fill up on summer
In the summertime
If I had a doubt, if I waited
In the summertime
Someone else might just've swung on in
In the summertime
Sun is comin' out
Celebrate it
In the summertime
We will never be this young again
Got a lot of catching up to do
And a lot of loving left to give
Less you feel you've got to prove
The more you wanna just let live
Even if you've been afraid of love
Or you're waiting for a little shove
A little bit could be enough
Just try it for the summer
In the summertime
If I had a doubt, if I waited
In the summertime
Someone else might just've swung on in
In the summertime
Sun is comin' out
Celebrate it
In the summertime
We will never be this young again
(In the summertime)
(Sweet, sweet, sweet, summertime)
In the summertime
If I had a doubt, if I waited
In the summertime
Someone else might just've swung on in
In the summertime
Sun is comin' out
Celebrate it
In the summertime
We will never be this young again
Yeah, in the summertime
If I had a doubt, if I waited
In the summertime
Someone else might just've swung on in
In the summertime
Sun is comin' out
Celebrate it
In the summertime
We will never be this young again, whoa
Ford lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Tryin', tired but I'm tryin'
This hill I've been climbin'
Oh I can't see the top
Old man, can you help me understand
Why I'm on this planet?
How do you know when to stop?
Working for a dollar
Well that's how you make a man feel broke
Working for a dollar
That's the only thing I know
"Just drive an old Ford
Count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more
Leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid
Don't give em your best days
Only so many left, save
Some of 'em up for the ones worth saving 'em for"
Patience, I've run out of patience
I need a vacation
I need out of this shift
Skydive, maybe see how fast I can drive
Too young to not feel alive
And I'm caught in a ditch
Passin' me a bottle
Oldman starts rollin' his own smoke
Says "you lost me at dollar
Here's the only thing I know
Just drive an old Ford
Count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more
Leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid
Don'tgive em your best days
Only so many left, save
Some of 'em up for the ones worth saving 'em for
Once you find your love, you hold her close and say her name
No amount of money's gonna make you feel the same
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
Just drive an old Ford
Count blessings and praise the Lord
Have less make it feel like more
Leave work at the front door
Work hard and you get paid
Don't give em your best days
Only so many left, save
Some of 'em up for the ones worth saving 'em for"
Freedom (Johnny's Song) lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Johnny's got a family of five, and he works for the state
He got debts that are piling high, and an old Chevrolet
Willie on the dash playin' tunes
Smells like grass cuz he's covered in June
Picking up extra cash mowing lawns with his kids
Stained sneakers walk through the church as they kneel down to pray
Sayin' "please Lord, have pity on us, take our troubles away
These seeds that we're plantin' with you
We hope one day, oh Lord will come true"
I remember even right now that look on his face
So we'd get high, and we'd ramble
Get drunk and we'd gamble
Teenagers cruising at 75
Singing "Sweet Home Alabama"
Stay out all damn weekend
Sundays are for sleeping
Nobody leaving this planet alive
Might as well enjoy your freedom
Yeah freedom
Mom says she gonna enlist, and the Corps pays for school
They'll have more money they could work with if she just had the tools
John says "What you think's best
I'll work doubles and make up the rest"
Still drown in college debt I'll never forgive or forget
So we'd get high, and we'd ramble
Get drunk and we'd gamble
Teenagers cruising at 75
Singing "Sweet Home Alabama"
Stay out all damn weekend
Sundays are for sleeping
Nobody leaving this planet alive
Might as well enjoy your freedom
Yeah freedom
Went to Woodstock
With his draft papers in his back pocket from Vietnam
Workin' in the slammer
Did hard time
Went through hell together, they'd die for each other
Oh these lovers in arms
Yeah they'd get high and they'd ramble
Get drunk and they'd gamble
When they were younger like everyone else
Like you couldn't blow out their candle
Stay out all damn weekend
Sundays are for sleeping
Nobody leaving this planet alive
Might as well enjoy your freedom
Yeah freedom
Greatest Of All Time lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Letting my love-light, my love-light shine
Right through the battles
Just like an arrow, straight to your heart
Even a wounded one like mine
Facing the gallows
That stood in the shadows
Is coming out of the dark
Even though I'd almost
Almost given up
But I did, I did it
I really stuck with it
Someone found love
I'm so excited
And this world, this life
So happy, could cry
This angel of mine
Greatest of all time
She's the greatest
The greatest
Yeah, I landed on the real thing, is this real life?
Used to be jaded, but that feeling faded
When I gave it a try
Put away my problems and all of my pride
Put on my halo, with my best foot forward
And I put in the time
I went through the darkness
Just to see the light
Yeah I did, I did it
I really stuck with it
Someone found love
I'm so excited
In this world, this life
So happy could cry
This angel of mine
Greatest of all time
She's the greatest
The greatest
Used to think love was blind
Until I saw you
Leaning on the hands of time sayin'
That there's no tomorrow
Now you're all I'm wanting
Now you're all I'm wanting
But I did, I did it
I really stuck with it
Someone found love
I'm so excited
In this world, this life
So happy could cry
This angel of mine
Greatest of all time
She's the greatest
The greatest
Greatest of all time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She's the greatest
The greatest
Destiny lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Love, the only love I need
The only one for me
My truth, my destiny
And there
Beyond a million stars
I'll wipe away the scars
For all eternity
And when asking how I knew
Your love was so true
Heaven only had to know
And we, we are the million to one
The children of the sun
A world so far away
Cry, let me be your tears
Let me face your fears
We've already lit the darkness
You and I
Look how far we've come
Walking on the sun
Stay forever in my heart
Lighthouse lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
We can't get off of this old
Wreckage of a boat unless we
Make a few phone calls
And that will be hard
The power is down and the supplies almost drowned
It's a matter of luck if we can figure this out
We're all victims of something without any meaning
A modest salvation, it's all very seemingly clear
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
And we stand in the mirror and tell ourselves lies
Just to get through the trouble of solving the problem that's here
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
The waters are rocky and the crew's pretty scared
Better get ourselves ready for a stormy affair
We followed the stars cause that's the right thing to do
But this isn't the water it's just me and you
We're all victims of something without any meaning
A modest salvation, it's all very seemingly clear
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
And we stand in the mirror and tell ourselves lies
Just to get through the trouble of solving the problem that's here
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
Can I get away, Can I get away?
Somebody save me
Can I get away, Can I get away?
Somebody save me, save me
We're all victims of something without any meaning
A modest salvation, it's all very seemingly clear
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
And we stand in the mirror and tell ourselves lies
Just to get through the trouble of solving the problem that's here
Lighthouse, find me
Lighthouse, blind me
Chasing When lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Why do we continue
To follow this pilot
Into the burning sun
Waving a banner
Set by a standard
Sold to the obvious ones
So set up the pins and knock 'em all down
When are we ever gonna learn?
I can't depend on
Waiting for the trend
I'm always on the outside
While you're chasing when
From the clothing to the culture probing
Movement of the moment
Always chasing when
Always chasing when
I read on the newsflash
The fashion of my class isn't the same as before
The new hyperactive, endorphin distracted
Way to not talk anymore
For every solution there's a problem
And for every problem, a war
I can't depend on
Waiting for the trend
I'm always on the outside
While you're chasing when
From the clothing to the culture probing
Movement of the moment
Always chasing when
Always chasing
I can't think about it
Like you think about it
Give me a sign
I can't think about it
I'd go out of my mind
I can't depend on
Waiting for the trend
I'm always on the outside
While you're chasing when
From the clothing to the culture probing
Movement of the moment
Always chasing when
I can't depend on
Waiting for the trend
I'm always on the outside
While you're chasing when
From the clothing to the culture probing
Movement of the moment
Always chasing when
Always chasing when
Hero In Our House lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
There was a hero in my house
I really miss her
That's her on the porch
Right there, holding my sister
Used to wake me up for school
Helped put on my clothes
Lunch in the fridge
Wrapped in foil to stay cold
And then she walked me out
The hero in my house
Now my heart
It's locked in a cage
Thrown into the river
I can't help this rage
Sometimes I wonder
What she's doing up there now
Do they see her like we do?
The hero in our house
Yeah we're all a little numb
That's not the intention
The things that we saw
Just hurt too much to mention
I hurt for the pain
Hurt and I'm grieving
Oddest thing is
There's just no getting even
Her body took her out
The hero in our house
Now this heart
It's locked in a cage
Thrown into theriver
I can't help this rage
Sometimes I wonder
What she's doing up there now
Do they see her like we do?
The hero in our house
Some things you can't forget
Some folks you don't either
Can try to outrun pain
You stop and feel the fever
I needto get drunk
Feeling so crazy
I need to get work done
But then I just get lazy
If she could see me now
The hero in our house
It really gets me down
It really bums me out
Now this heart
It's locked in a cage
Thrown into the river
I can't help this rage
But sometimes I wonder
What she's doing up there now
Do they see her like we do?
The hero in our house
There was a hero in our house
Sent down from heaven
Then she went back
'Fore the age of 67
But she told us all goodbye
Told us she was proud
And that's how she went out
The hero in our house
Let Someone In lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Underneath the surface
You're not hard to please
Simple satisfaction for simple needs
And this thing between us
What is there to lose?
Have a little faith like I have in you
Let someone in
It's so good
Open up
Let someone in
To your heart
Let me in
Look at what we've started
How we lit the fuse
When you look at me I feel bulletproof
Let me be your shelter
Let me be your shield
Let me be the one that your soul can feel
Let someone in
It's so good
Open up
Let someone in
To your heart
Let me in
Those hours, those minutes
Each, each one we've lived in
All of them lead up to this
One we're in
Let someone in
It's so good
Open up
Let someone in
To your heart
Let me in
Love love love love love
Love love love love
Love love love love love...
Laat Me Nooit Meer Los (Never Let Me Go) lyrics - Gavin DeGraw
Never, never let me go
Soms ben ik kwetsbaar en alleen
En m'n enige troost zijn de muren om me heen
Ik wacht tot jij weer bij me bent
Alleen jij staat me bij als de spiegel mij niet kent
En ik zie
Oh, oh
Donderwolken boven zee
Oh, oh
Dus sla je armen om me heen en
Laat me, laat me
Laat me nooit meer los
Laat me, laat me
Laat me nooit meer los
Ik zou niet weten wat ik moet zonder jou
Ben niets zonder jou
Ik zit hier in het donker, dus hou me vast
En laat me, laat me
Laat me nooit meer los
Some days I live inside the past
Wonderin' if I might be sad, I might be damned
Blinding the darkness with your light
Bring me back, bring me home and I'm all right
And I said
Oh, oh
Just when I get weak again
Oh, oh
You're my heaven closing in
Never, never
Never let me go
Never, never
Never let me go
Couldn't stand this, something about you
Being around you
Takes me like a rocket to outer space
Never, never
Never let me go
Oh, jij laat alle wolken verdwijnen
Jij maakt dat ik blauw kan zien
In jouw armen voel ik me veilig
Dus ik smeek je, alsjeblieft
Jij laat alle wolken verdwijnen (All the clouds disappear)
Jij maakt dat ik blauw kan zien (I can see through the skies)
In jouw armen voel ik me veilig
Dus ik smeek je, alsjeblieft, oh (Hold on tight, I'm begging, please)
Laat me (Never), laat me (Never)
Laat me nooit meer los
Laat me (Never), laat me (Never)
Laat me nooit meer los
Ik zou niet weten wat ik moet zonder jou
Ben niets zonder jou
Ik zit hier in het donker, dus hou me vast
En laat me (Never), laat me (Never)
Laat me nooit meer los
Never, never let me go
