LYRICS TO "LONG GONE" EP

1 - "HOLD MY HAND"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Chorus
I love the way you look when you're holding my hand,
Your heart beat keeping time with,
Everything you do makes me feel like a man,
All these words just can't describe,
The way you make me feel when you're holding my hand,
When you're holding my hand.

Verse
Through the sleepless nights and the long ride home,
Can't wait to read your words as they reach my phone,
As I'm climbing into bed and I think of you,
Wishing I could've said.

Chorus
I love the way you look when you're holding my hand,
Your heart beat keeping time with,
Everything you do makes me feel like a man,
All these words just can't describe,
The way you make me feel when you're holding my hand,
When you're holding my hand.

Verse
All the wasted days til my nights with you,
It's a lonely haze that I'm wading through,
As I climb up to your door wishing I could say,
What am I waiting for.

Chorus
I love the way you look when you're holding my hand,
Your heart beat keeping time with,
Everything you do makes me feel like a man,
All these words just can't describe,
The way you make me feel when you're holding my hand,
When you're holding my hand.

Bridge
And I'd say any stupid thing to tell you how I feel,
If you promise not to laugh and say that we're for real,
Please tell me this is real,
Cause this is how I feel when I say.

Chorus
I love the way you look when you're holding my hand,
Your heart beat keeping time with,
Everything you do makes me feel like a man,
All these words just can't describe,
The way you make me feel when you're holding my hand,
When you're holding my hand,
I think you'll understand,
Please hold my hand.

2 - "THIS DREAM (NASHVILLE)"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Verse
Drove all day from Nashville,
Stopped in Washington, DC,
Finally got through Boston,
So afraid you won’t see me,
Road through the night to see you,
Watch you open up that door,
I’d have nothing left to lose,
If you won’t see me anymore.

Chorus
This dream will carry me,
Let’s hope it’s pure and true,
This dream will carry me,
Through the nights alone this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home to you.

Verse
A million nights of wanting,
To be back there by your side,
You’d be there on your front porch 
With your arms open wide,
We’d forget about the road,
And the nights you spent alone,
But don’t you worry baby,
Cause I’m finally coming home.

Chorus
This dream will carry me,
Let’s hope it’s pure and true,
This dream will carry me,
Through the nights alone this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home to you.

Bridge
I can’t rest until I’ve won,
‘Til I can give the world to you,
We’ll be hotter than the sun and in everything you do,
You pull what’s left of me back home to you.

Chorus
This dream will carry me,
Let’s hope it’s pure and true,
This dream will carry me,
Through the nights alone this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home to you.

Verse
Drove all night from Nashville,
With my mind on you and me,
Was glad to get to Boston,
I knew right where you would be,
Sitting on your front porch,
With a smile you take my hand,
All the miles they melt behind me,
We’ll forget ‘em if we can.

Chorus
This dream will carry me,
Let’s hope it’s pure and true,
This dream will carry me,
That’s led me home to you,
This dream will carry me,
I’ll give the world to you,
This dream will carry me,
Through the nights alone this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home,
Through the raging storm this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home,
Through the nights alone this dream will
Pull what’s left of me back home to you.

3 - "STEPHANIE"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Verse
There's something about your wrists,
Or your painted fingertips,
That keeps you on my mind,
That ring that's in your lip,
The flash of your bare hip,
Makes me hope you're so inclined.

Chorus
I don't care what your boyfriend would say,
Or what my girlfriend thinks,
They don't understand us anyway,
We'll be long gone,
Oh Stephanie.

Verse
I was thinking after school,
Maybe me and you,
Would head on down to Mexico,
While we swim the Rio Grande,
Maybe I could hold your hand, 
And we could see where this thing goes.

Chorus
I don't care what your boyfriend would say,
Or what my girlfriend thinks,
They don't understand us anyway,
We'll be long gone,
Oh Stephanie.

Bridge
I've got so much more to say,
But you leave me speechless.

Verse
The pink top that you wear,
And the way that you do your hair,
You sing me in and out of time,
The subtle softness of your skin,
Your sweet heart I'll fight to win,
I'll make you mine.

Chorus
I don't care what your boyfriend would say,
Or what my girlfriend thinks,
They don't understand us anyway,
We'll be long gone,
We'll be long gone
Oh Stephanie,
Oh Stephanie,
Oh oh oh,
Oh oh,
Oh oh oh Stephanie.

4 - "ANY STUPID THING"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Verse
First thing, she enters talking,
Can’t breathe by the way that she’s walking,
Toward me, the moment she passes by,
Peace sign around her neck,
If she talked to me I’d just be a wreck,
She’s so much more than I’d ever hoped to find,
Hoped to find.

Chorus
I’d say I picked out the rings,
I’d say any stupid thing,
To see that smile that makes me sing,
Nose ring, tattoo,
Lollipop that’s you,
You’re my whole world, you’re my everything.

Verse
The way you sit, playing with your hair
You sometimes you catch me as I sit and stare,
Thinking how I can make you mine,
Well I don’t know what you’re looking for,
But If I find out I’ll tell you for sure,
I’ll be so much more than you’d ever hoped to find,
Hoped to find.

Chorus
I’d say I picked out the rings,
I’d say any stupid thing,
To see that smile that makes me sing,
Nose ring, tattoo,
Lollipop that’s you,
You’re my whole world, you’re my everything.

(Solo)

Verse
First thing, she enters talking,
Can’t breathe by the way that she’s walking,
Toward me, the moment she passes by,
Peace sign around her neck,
If she talked to me I’d just be a wreck,
She’s so much more than I’d ever hoped to find,
I’ll make her mine.

Chorus
I’d say I picked out the rings,
I’d say any stupid thing,
To see that smile that makes me sing,
Nose ring, tattoo,
Lollipop that’s you,
You’re my whole world, you’re my everything,
You’re my whole world, you’re my everything,
You’re my everything.

5 - "IT'S JUST THE NIGHT"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Verse
One girl's crying to her boyfriend to take her back,
She didn't mean the things she said when she said all of that,
Another one is making love in the back of a pickup truck,
Staring at the stars above and thanking God for getting stuck.

Pre-Chorus
And she doesn't know what's right,
She doesn't know what he did last night.

Verse
And Nicky K. is walking home with her man along the road,
She doesn't realize that in his head they are not alone,
Thinking about the girl he met at the bar at the club last night,
How he was gonna take her home and she was gonna get it right.

Pre-Chorus
And she didn't know his game,
She didn't even know his name.

Chorus
It's just the night,
Here comes the night,
It's just the night,
Bring on the night.

(SOLO)

Chorus
It's just the night,
Here comes the night,
It's just the night,
Bring on the night.

Verse
Nicky K., she has a way to make a man forget,
She kinda likes the ways she has to give so she can get,
I hope one day that Darlin Nick will write it in a book,
And crying girls will finally learn to give their man that look.

Pre-Chorus
They'll know what it means,
To hear their man say please.

Chorus
It's just the night,
Here comes the night,
It's just the night,
Bring on the night.

LYRICS TO "TAKE YOU AWAY" EP

1 - "EMPTY ROOMS"

What about me, I must have missed the boat,
Where was I when everybody took the vote,
Out in the cold, or under the moon,
Shadows dance, here in my empty room.
Seen from above I could be resting,
Watched from within you’d see what I mean,
Run and I hide, I rave and I swoon,
Shadows dance here in my empty room.
All alone in a world full of people,
Laughing it off through the tears in my eyes,
Life’s the same while ever it’s changing,
Full of these empty rooms.

Here I am hopelessly waiting,
There I go, Hoping again,
Watch and I wait, It’s all I can do,
Shadows dance here in my empty room.
All alone in a world full of people,
Laughing it off through the tears in my eyes,
Life’s the same while ever it’s changing,    
Full of these empty rooms.

(Solo)
What about me, I must have missed the boat,
Where was I when everybody took the vote,
Out in the cold, or under the moon,
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance, here in my empty room.
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance, here in my empty room.
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance, here in my empty room.
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance,
Shadows dance, here in my empty room.

2 - "HOLD ON (PRAY)"

Verse
I can see you’re feeling down again,
As your world turns left and you whirl to the right,
Your feet are unsteady so hold on tight,
There’ll be a better day,
There’s gonna be a better day.

Pre Chorus
Hold on Darling,
Hold on, Hold on

Chorus
You pray in the morning,
You pray in the evening,
You’re praying for your hero to come,
You’re praying for the stars
To line up just so
You can see the world lit up by the sun,
On and on you’re waiting,
You should be getting with the getting on,
So hold on,
Hold on, baby, hold on.

Verse
I can see your mind untangling,
You’ve been one step forward and two steps back,
Another day closer to lay a new track,
There’ll be a better way,
There’s gotta be a better way.
Pre Chorus
Hold on Darling,
Hold on, Hold on

Chorus
You pray in the morning,
You pray in the evening,
You’re praying for your hero to come,
You’re praying for the stars
To line up just so
You can see the world lit up by the sun,
On and on you’re waiting,
You should be getting with the getting on,
So hold on,
Hold on, baby, hold on.

Bridge
Hold on,
Hold on baby hold on,

Chorus
You pray in the morning,
You pray in the evening,
You’re praying for your hero to come,
You’re praying for the stars
To line up just so
You can see the world lit up by the sun,
On and on you’re waiting,
You should be getting with the getting on,
So hold on,
Hold on, baby, hold on.

Outro
I can see that tender smile again.

3 - "TAKE YOU AWAY"

(S. Clark-Hamel/A. Scharff/M. Scharff)

Verse
You have no idea of who I am,                                                                   
Or who I plan to be,                                                                                     
As you’re passing by me on the plane,                                                      
It’s pretty plain to see,                                                                                 
That the world that you’ve been living in,                                                
Ain’t all you thought it’d be,                                                            
And you’re so caught up in feeling down,                                                 
You’d never notice me.                                                                                

PreChorus
I could be the one,                                                                                       
I could be the one.                                                                                         

Chorus
To take you away,                                                                                        
From the lines that lead to nowhere and I will,                            
Take you away,                                                                                            
From the guys that wouldn’t go there and I will,                                     
Take you away,                                                                                            
All the things they said that weren’t fair but I will,                                  
Take your hand and hold your heart,                                                       
Be the man you want to take you away.                                        

Verse
I can see the house we make a home,                                                       
I see us growing old,                                                                        
I can hear the kids play’n in the yard,                                                       
I feel the winter’s cold,                                                                                
I can taste the flavor of your lips,                                                              
While falling into bed,                                                                                  
I can smell your perfume in the snow,                                                      
That’s falling on your head.                                                                        

PreChorus
I could be the one,                                                                                       
I could be the one.                                                                                         

Chorus
To take you away,                                                                                        
From the lines that lead to nowhere and I will,                            
Take you away,                                                                                            
From the guys that wouldn’t go there and I will,                                     
Take you away,                                                                                            
All the things they said that weren’t fair but I will,                                  
Take your hand and hold your heart,                                                       
Be the man you want to take you away.    

Bridge
Don’t ask me how I know this but I do,                                                     
I might not be perfect
But I’m perfect for you.
Yes I’m perfect for you.
To Take You Away.

PreChorus
I could be the one,                                                                                       
I could be the one.                                                                                         

Chorus
To take you away,                                                                                        
From the lines that lead to nowhere and I will,                            
Take you away,                                                                                            
From the guys that wouldn’t go there and I will,                                     
Take you away,                                                                                            
All the things they said that weren’t fair but I will,                                  
Take your hand and hold your heart,                                                       
Be the man you want to take you away.    

4 - "IT KILLS ME"

Verse
Hey
I'm talking to you,
You're the one that I want,
You're the one that I’ve got to be with,
When I say,
You're all that I need,
You're everything I could handle,
You're the one that I got to be with.

Pre-Chorus
I’ve got nothing for you,
Except to make you feel this way.

Chorus
The way that you walk,
The sound of your voice,
The wink of your eye,
And I wanna die,
Yeah, It kills me
When I see you move,
Twirling your hair,
Like you don’t seem to care,
It kills me
You’re checking your phone,
Laughing out loud,
I’m just a face in the crowd.
And that kills me!
It Kills Me
It Kills Me
Like you do.

Verse
Say
What you want to hear,
What you want me to do,
Those are all of the things I’ll give you,
And so Hey,
Heard all that I need,
You’re everything and I want to
Show you all of the thing I’ll give you

Pre-Chorus
I’ve got nothing for you,
Except to make you feel this way.

Chorus
The way that you walk,
The sound of your voice,
The wink of your eye,
And I wanna die,
Yeah, It kills me
When I see you move,
Twirling your hair,
Like you don’t seem to care,
It kills me
You’re checking your phone,
Laughing out loud,
I’m just a face in the crowd.
And that kills me!
It Kills Me
It Kills Me
Like you do.

(Solo)

Pre-Chorus
I’ve got nothing for you,
Except to make you feel this way.

Chorus
The way that you walk,
The sound of your voice,
The wink of your eye,
And I wanna die,
Yeah, It kills me
When I see you move,
Twirling your hair,
Like you don’t seem to care,
It kills me
You’re checking your phone,
Laughing out loud,
I’m just a face in the crowd.
And that kills me!
It Kills Me
It Kills Me
Like you do.

5 - "SENTIMENTAL"

Verse
Sentimental words you throw,                                                                   
Sentimental undertow,                                                                                
Perfect summer sky for a sentimental guy,                                                           
Here you come around the swing,                                                             
Feeling like the undisputed king,                                                                
Nothing is not right with this perfect summer night.                               

Chorus
What’s the use in crying now,
Ain’t no use in trying anyhow,
Still end up as you can see,
Lonely loner you and Sentimental me.

Verse
Shiver as you hold my hand,                                                                                  
Falling like a grain of sand,                                                                         
Ticking off the days, wishing you would stay,                                          
Stay right there and please don’t move,                                                    
Revolve around me like the moon,                                                            
In the fading light of this perfect summer night.                                      

Chorus
What’s the use in crying now,
Ain’t no use in trying anyhow,
Still end up as you can see,
Lonely loner you and Sentimental me.

Bridge
Don’t wake me from this dream    
Don’t tell me it’s not me and you,
Don’t tell me it’s not real,
This is the way I feel about you.

Chorus
What’s the use in crying now,
Ain’t no use in trying anyhow,
Still end up as you can see,
Lonely loner you and Sentimental me.
What’s the use in crying now,
Ain’t no use in trying anyhow,
Still end up as you can see,
Lonely loner you
Lonely loner you
Lonely loner you
