Before Fairly Begun
03:48

i sat for 45 minutes while you finished your wine
before i walked out the door
i had reached my threshold
i could not take it anymore
i said it was boring
you called me a bore
but i gave it chance, did all that you asked
i don't expect no rewards
and this was over before fairly begun
you were pretty, i was pretty dumb
to think that you might've been the one
little did i know that in the end
i would rather go home all alone
i had a real nice time imagining us
but sometimes pretend is better because
the real thing just ain't good enough
it's sad to say - i wish it was
we always look, we never touch
a small fixation
a little crush
i gave you an inch but in the end you take twice as much
is there anything i could do to help out?
the heavy lifting, get in and out
she wanted to come but i said no
hey i take it easy wherever i go
you trust your instincts
it's all you've got when you hit rock bottom
it happens a lot
but baby i don't have a ladder and i gotta go

Caution Yellow
03:16
|

here i am again waiting on a girl
and she's late
maybe she's not coming at all
call it flaky
call it fate
but i'd really like
like a chance
a chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i go for broke
hell i'm broken anyway
it's caution yellow as i accelerate through the light
driving home again
all alone again
cause she never showed up
any fool could see
anyone but me
would give up
but i'd really like
like a chance
a chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i go for broke
hell i'm broken anyway
it's caution yellow as i accelerate through the light
is it green?
is it red?
if it's yellow stop ahead
here i am again waiting on some girl to show up
it don't look like she's comin' at all
and that's just pretty fucked up
but i'd really like
like a chance
a chance to read the tattoo that she hides
so i go for broke
hell i'm broken anyway
it's caution yellow as i accelerate through the light

Dive Right In
04:18
|

but you know i'm gonna dive right in
cause it's the best way that i know to begin, again
come on it's easy
believe me
when you dive right in
right in
there's no right, and honey there's no wrong
you can take a left, you take a right, you keep moving on
and there's no wrong turns now
there's only lessons to learn now
when we dive right in
right in
come on now the water's fine
forget your towel, you're gonna drop dry
sink or swim cause there's no better time than now
come on give it try
and dive right in
right in
you can live your life by one little rule
you could just dip a toe or you could drown in it too
so come on do what you will now
but i'll drink my fill now
i'm gonna dive right in
right in
pack my suit i'm leaving tonight
i'm off i'm gonna find out the rest of my life
maybe we'll meet another time
but now i'm gonna fine a little piece of (my) mind
but you know i'm gonna right in now

Penny

girl i've counted two times now
you given me the runaround
you don't put me down
before you pick me up
maybe the third time's the charm
you know i'd never twist your arm
but i swear on this here guitar
that i'm not giving up
what do you think?
should i heed your advice
and write you out of my life?
it's all right
darlin' if the world was flat
i'd walk you the edge and back
i'd throw a penny down and down
to see if it would make a sound
i'd watch that penny fall
one cent ain't worth nothin' at all
it's never gonna make us rich
unless you make a wish on it
come on now, what do you say?
i won't keep you out too late
or have i made a big mistake
mistake in asking you?
girl i think you wanna go
yeah, i just got this hunch you know
from up above, down below
so i just press on through
