Scars of Her Love Lyrics

Key: D# major 
Standard tuning, capo on 1st fret 
Chords: D#maj, G#maj; Cmin7/D#("slash" chord); Fmin, G/D#maj, G#maj 

(intro solo) 

Her alluring eyes 
are missing our memories 
They're only a disguise 
to put my soul at ease 

I couldn't keep up with her 
And her words that cut like glass 
After all the blood I've bled 
This time is the last 

Somehow I made it through 
The life of a fallen dove 
Somehow I made it through 
The scars of her love 

(instrumental break) 

I dodged the stone she'd cast 
That's all in the past 
And I've left her wishes behind 
The last things on my mind 

And if you know this girl 
Tell her I miss her so 
But sometimes all we can do 
Is start over and go 

Somehow I made it through 
The life of a fallen dove 
Somehow I made it through 
The scars of her love    

Somehow I made it through 
The life of a fallen dove 
Somehow I made it through 
The scars of her love    

Somehow I made it through 
The life of a fallen dove 
Somehow I made it through.... 
The scars of her love

Skylights 2021 Lyrics 
Play along on Chordify!

Standard Tuning, no capo 
Chords: Gmajor, Amajor, Bminor barre, Eminor; Bbmaj7 barre, Cmajor 

The daylight shows me structures of glass and steel 
With giant names, bland colors, and nothing to feel 
At daytime it's clear to see 
The city feeds on busy feet 
I await the time when the night rears her head 

Daytime people moving at the speed of sound 
Tourists, loud cars, shopping malls all around 
But hours and hours go by 
Until the clouds separate in the sky 
And the lights are here and they're taking over me 

The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are looking down at me 
The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are hovering over me 

The buildings' lights shine brighter than stars from space 
And giant billboards' lights glare with style and grace 
From a distance or far away 
You can tell when they come out to play 
The skylights in the city of the world 

The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are looking down at me 
The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are hovering over me 

It's the nighttime that I'm destined to see 
The lights shine bright red, blue, and green 
And when the night falls they call out to me 
At nighttime is where I'm supposed to be 
Supposed to 
be 
(guitar solo) 
background chants while chorus rolls: Skylights (x16) 
(The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are looking down at me 
The skylights, I'm looking at the skylights 
They glisten over me 
The skylights are hovering over me) (x2)

It's over, my life is at an end 
I cannot face another day here, my friend 
You have beaten me, it's clear to see 
And now the fires are the ones that keep me company

The hand's been dealt, but not very well 
And now I dine in hell

The cards are on the table, this has been a good game 
The hand's been dealt, but not very well 
And now I dine in hell.....

Never did I think that my hero days were done 
Can't stop 'em with my super strength and power of the sun 
I can't fight the truth and get back my golden days

The changing of the guard, protector of the land 
It sucks my time is here 
But the future looks bright 
Go forth my child and take flight 

Chorus: Oh, oh, ohhhhhh (x4)

Go forth and take the leap 
Believe in your power 
Go forth and save the world 
This is your finest hour

V1: 
I never knew what love was 
My pains just pushed it all away 
But when I saw your eyes 
I had to figure it out someway 

Chorus: 
I'd give anything and change everything 
To show you I know what it means to love 
I'd turn back the hands of time 
Until I make you mine 
And show you I know what it means to love 
What it means to love (x3) 

V2: 
I think my heart's stopped working      
It's determined not to beat         
Except for those who will break it     
But I'll lay the pieces at your feet 

Chorus 2: 
I'd give anything and change everything 
To show you I know what it means to love 
I'd turn back the hands of time 
Until I make you mine 
And show you I know what it means to love 
What it means to love (x3) 

V3: 
And now I know my purpose in life 
As the sun begins to rise 
I need to know what love is 
Now let me look into your eyes 

Final Chorus: 
I'd give anything and change everything 
To show you I know what it means to love 
I'd turn back the hands of time 
Until I make you mine 
And show you I know what it means to love 
What it means to love (x3)

 

The Rush Lyrics 
Play along on Chordify

 

V1: 
Something takes over you 
Erupting from within 
You grip your chest and clench your fist 
To fight the chills again 
As you give in and let go 
It boils deep inside 
Your mind, body, and spirit's on fire 
It opens up your eyes 

Pre-chorus 
Rise again, the energy that fuels you  

Chorus: 
Born again 
And now the rush is here 
Moving faster than the speed of light 
It invigorates 
And it liberates 
The rush is here again  
Take me away... 

To boldly go where no goes 
That feeling just repeats 
You make the jump and stick the landing 
On your own two feet 
You're stronger than you'll ever know 
That feeling never dies 
Your mind, body, and spirit explodes 
It opens up your eyes 

Pre chorus 2 
Rise again, the energy that breaks through 

Chorus 2 
Born again 
And now the rush is here 
Moving faster than the speed of light 
It invigorates 
And it liberates 
The rush is here again  
Take me away... 

Bridge 
Is this what it's like  
What it's like 
I feel like I can touch the sky 
Is this what it means 
To be free 
I feel like I can never die 
Never die.....(x4) 

Chorus 3 
Born again 
And now the rush is here 
Moving faster than the speed of light 
It invigorates 
And it liberates 
The rush is here again  
Take me away... 

It invigorates 
And it liberates 
The rush is here again  
Take me away...

Little Stirrup Cay Lyrics

Chords: check em out via Chordify!

Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of my dreams can be made 
Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of life's worries float away 
They float away 

As I walk in the sands by the ocean 
My eyes, they grew ever wide 
At the sea, my royal blue majesty 
I felt so strong, so alive 
               
Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of my dreams can be made 
Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of life's worries float away 
They float away 

As I drove down these roads, they were broken and cracked 
But I saw what I couldn't see back home 
I lived with the sea and the sea lived with me 
But that was so long ago 

Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of my dreams can be made 
Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of life's worries float away 
They float away 

Don't take me from the ocean 
And all it's heavenly blue 
Don't take me away from the ocean 
Cause the only thing I want to do 
Is to sit beside you 

Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of my dreams can be made 
Take me back to Little Stirrup Cay 
Where all of life's worries float away 
They float away 

They float away...

 

Universal Lyrics

It's a universal love 
That keeps me connected to you 
No matter where you are 
It's a universal love 
That keeps me connected to you 
No matter how far you are 

Over again, we'll fly 
To the clouds up high 
Through the cosmos, through space and time 
It's just us two, just me and you... 

It's a universal love 
That keeps me connected to you 
No matter what you do 
In a distant galaxy 
Or lost on the biggest star 
It'll always be me and you 

Over again, we'll fly 
To the clouds up high 
Through the cosmos, through space and time 
It's just us two, just me and you... 

The trees, they carry me 
Carry me through the breeze 
And the clouds up there, so high 
Coming down to see me 
The world is at our feet, we're unbreakable 
This love I can't define is universal 
This love I can't define is universal 

It's a universal love 
That keeps me connected to you 
No matter where you are 
It's a universal love 
That keeps me connected to you 
No matter where you are..

 

Crescent Moon Lyrics

Chords: check em out via Chordify!

I'm not from here but that's alright, you see 
Leave this booth and take a trip with me 
Graphs and charts, push them all aside 
They can't explain how you feel inside... 
         
Mark this day as your greatest day 
This is when you start to live today 
You don't belong behind these shirts and beads 
Ride with me through the LA breeze 
     
I won't push you into this 
But don't you wish for eternal bliss 
     
All I ask is for the love you want 
Stripped of walking before it learns to run 
Don't you wanna see where we'll go next 
To find the life and the love that fit you best? 
             
Should I hold you now 
Sometime soon 
That's all I ask under the crescent moon... 
         
No time to waste, there's so much more to do 
Past the palm trees and the ocean view 
Take my hand and bid this place adieu 
Our time is now, the moonlight's shining through 

Maybe I'm selfish to follow this light 
So take my hand and make this right 
     
All I ask is for the love you want 
Stripped of walking before it learns to run 
Don't you wanna see where we'll go next 
To find the life and the love that fit you best? 
Fit you best... 
     
Take a chance with me 
Just take my hand and break free... 
Break free, yeah 
     
All I ask is for the love you want 
Stripped of walking before it learns to run 
Don't you wanna see where we'll go next 
To find the life and the love that fit you best? 
             
Should I hold you now 
Sometime soon 
That's all I ask under the crescent moon... 

Should I hold you now 
Sometime soon 
That's all I ask under the crescent moon...

 

Open Up To Me Lyrics

Chords: check em out on Chordify!

Let's sit and talk for a while 
I've got an empty chair to share 
Your eyes try to paint a picture 
But the paint splatters everywhere 
            
Say a word if you can hear me 
I know your walls are closing in 
Maybe we can fix the canvas 
That you've broken time and time again 
 
Open up to me 
Straighten the lines that bend 
Leave those hurtful people 
Please come back my friend 
Let go of their words 
To keep their venom from you 
Listen for my voice 
It's calling you... 
  
Open up to me 
No need to draw a line 
You don't have to feel this way 
Don't be scared this time 
 
I got a smile out of you 
But I know that I can't make it stay 
What we did just wasn't enough 
We've gotta find another way 
               
Don't you worry about the time 
It's not the boss of you or me 
Paint the picture that's overdue 
Show me the smiles buried deep in you 

It's ok to cry 
Let those tears fill your eyes 
Give me a sign, give me a clue 
I know we'll make it through, make it through... 
     
Open up to me 
Straighten the lines that bend 
Leave those hurtful people 
Please come back my friend 
Let go of their words 
To keep their venom from you 
Listen for my voice 
It's calling you... 

Open up to me 
No need to draw a line 
You don't have to feel this way 
Don't be scared this time 

Open up to me...

Listen to my beating heart 
Follow the footsteps behind 
And you'll find me even when it's dark 

It's only a matter of time until we finally meet again (x2)

Can finally live the life we've dreamed 

It's only a matter of time until we finally meet again (x4) 
Meet again  

Until we meet again (x4)

 

Memories Lyrics

(Whole step down from Standard Tuning.)

Once in a million, I find familiar places 
They set off memories, memories of beautiful faces 
               
Even if the sky is falling down, don't forget those memories 

Caught in the moment, emotions rising and falling 
Over and over, memories forever binding 

Even if the world is tumbling down, don't forget those memories 
Even if the sky is falling down 
Oh no, please don't 
Forget those memories 

Those memories... 
Those memories... 

Even if the world is tumbling down, don't forget those memories 
Even if the sky is falling down, don't forget those memories 
Even if the sky is falling down 
Oh no, please don't 
Forget those memories

 

Wooden House Lyrics

Chords: check em out via Chordify!

Time doesn't discriminate 
Soon I'll lose it's game 
But somehow as it goes on 
The turnout is always the same 

The mornings run sour and the evenings bitter 
Names of my vices on my wall 
And every time I make amends, settle things 
Life brings the pain back in full 

But I must carry on 
To take back the world that I lost 
I'm reaching for my old state of mind 
My wooden house at the foot of the hill 

I need to take my memories like a newborn 
Squeeze them and hold them tight 
They're just so warm at heart 
In brightest days and darkest nights 

I need my windmill and my wide open space 
The greenest grass and the bluest sky 
Come on, dear body and mind 
Help me spread my wings and fly...high 

I must carry on 
To take back the world that I lost 
I'm reaching for my old state of mind 
My wooden house at the foot of the hill 

Now I must carry on 
To take back the world that I lost 
I'm reaching for my old state of mind 
My wooden house at the foot of the hill

I can't wait until tomorrow 
Don't wanna think about yesterday 
I can't wait 'til the sun rises tomorrow

Don't wanna think about yesterday 
I can't wait 'til the sun rises tomorrow 
Something good's coming my way 

All the things that make me sad, made me feel less of who I am 
Will finally be put to rest 
All the things that make me sad and push me under the sun 
Will finally be put to sleep 

I can't wait until tomorrow 
Don't wanna think about yesterday 
I can't wait 'til the sun rises tomorrow 
Something good's coming my way

All the things that make me sad and push me under the sun 
Will finally be put to sleep 

I can't wait until tomorrow 
Don't wanna think about yesterday 
I can't wait 'til the sun rises tomorrow 
Something good's coming my way 

Something good's coming my way

Even though my time is running out

Please don't let your fear control you 
Don't give up on me cause I still believe in you
