Boston 03:15
lyrics
It's probably not probable Essentially just a potential But emotions are out of control Ain't that always how the story goes Chorus: Kinda know you, but I really don't May not be real, but I suppose That what I've been missing I left back in Boston We have a lot of things in common And usually that’s not a problem Cuz people often share interests But usually not with this much distance Repeat Chorus Bridge: And maybe that's why it's my favorite And maybe that's why I think we'd make it And maybe it's just wishful thinking But maybe it’s a risk that's worth taking Repeat Chorus

Like I've Always Read It 04:24
lyrics
I was such a softie But don't take it from me Everybody knew And everybody could see They'd see me wishing They'd see me wanting They'd see me hoping But now they see me falling They see me glowing They see me choking Too scared to say the words For fear of losing But in my head I know What I am feeling But for now I'll keep it to myself Chorus: How can he be like me? I just can't explain it It feels so familiar The way I've always read it In all those fairytales By lovesick romantics And I just keep on falling harder Just when I never thought I would ever find it Someone who's just like me Someone who understands All of my little ticks And who also has them Feels so familiar Just like I've always read it I see it in your eyes That hint of something more Just like I have myself Should I walk through that door? Too scared to tell you But I don't need to Because I see it And I know you mean it I'm always smiling I'm never hiding I fly across the country Just to be beside him Yes, in my head I know What I am feeling But for now I'll keep it to myself Repeat Chorus

Mondays 03:20
lyrics
Chorus: Fences aren't meant to be crossed But you straddle them like a boss And I know it's hard, but it's hard for me To watch you cross them so easily on Mondays You promise me that you'll stop (please) But that's every single week You're getting help, so what the hell? Tell me, then what's it you seek? An escape from life? An escape from time? You don't have to hide from me You break your word and, babe, it hurts Cuz you always have more than three Repeat Chorus I love you more than anyone before And I got you like you got me I'm a life vest, supporting your chest But you still gotta swim to the beach I don't understand and you're only human But that slope is so slippery Every time you get ahead then fall behind I try to hide the tears that I'm crying

Could You Be... 01:54
lyrics
You're everywhere, you're in everything How come when I see you I see a ring? I'm going out of my mind, there is no doubt I'm an independent man who can't live without you I'm usually so cool in my demeanor I try to hide behind a confident exterior But when you smile the way that you do I know that for certain you can see through me Chorus: Now we're together And I'm so in love And we make each other better Could you be...the one? Got butterflies whenever you're around I feel like I'm floating above the ground I'm going out of my mind, but I don't care Because my heart isn't whole until you're there Repeat Chorus

The One 02:44
lyrics
I used to say it was hard to write about Somebody that you can’t live without But I believe, without a doubt You’re the one for me I used to say that love was too cliche Cuz I knew shitty back in the day Then you swept all of that away Can’t you see? Bridge: Everywhere I go, man Everybody sees it So what’s the use in hiding? It’s called the birds and bees, bitch Chorus: Everybody knows that you’re the one That you’ve got me hnnng Sorry for the pun Everybody knows my spring has sprung That you’ve got me hnnng Sorry for the pun Now I’m loud and proud about being in love Took awhile, but I finally found heaven I don’t gamble, but you’re my lucky seven Eight balls could never Now I can’t stop smiling every day Because you changed my life the day you came Busted through me like an ocean spray Cleansed in your water Repeat Bridge Repeat Chorus

Subawuwu 02:36
lyrics
It's the way you look right at me How you always think I'm pretty And how you appreciate my wittiness I must confess It's in that little smirk you have And your bed hair that gets me bad And, boy, I've never felt so happy You make me scream Chorus: I fall for you Oh yes, I do Cuz I love you Subawuwu Could be that Vulcan logic Or maybe chaos magic But you cleared out all of my sadness, babe I'm so engaged (Warp!) And don't forget I'm here for you Just like you're here for me Don't forget I got you, babe Maple syrup you and me Repeat Chorus
7.
Laundry 02:34
lyrics
Tossed in a big heap on our bed Say you’ll take care of it when you’re back Just an afterthought to you, but you see I’ve got a plan, baby So while you’re away at work I’ll be domestic cuz it’s my turn Chorus: I love to do your laundry I love to do your laundry For me it’s never a quandary I love to do your laundry I’ve got plenty of quarters on hand And I’m feeling detergent-termined And I still smile when touching your underwear, baby And I don’t mind the dirt and grime Because what’s mine is yours and yours is mine Repeat Chorus Bridge: You’ve had a bad day I can see it across your face And I want to make it okay So this is my little way Repeat Chorus

I Love You 02:04
lyrics
Thank you for loving me the way I am I know it's a simple thing, but you also understand where I'm coming from Thank you for telling me I'm allowed to feel And taking care of me, it's really a big deal and one of the many reasons you're whom I love I love you more and more each day And I'm so thankful for you in every way Thank you for being you and letting me in, babe I know that you were scared, but now you know I'll always bend when you're about to break I love you, boy, and that's the truth And I'm the happiest when you are subayou

New World Normal 02:58
lyrics
From the get-go way back that one midweek September A time we wished would last forever Now look at us, living together Stuck working from home alone, but next to each other Funny how through world chaos that we found world wonder Chorus: Here we are in the new world normal Where old shirts and sweats are the new formal Here we are in the new world normal Life has never been more beautiful What was once just a song-sung possibility is happening And I don't mean to sound clingy And I'm not an expert, baby But I sure know this emotion that I'm feeling And what I feel is jump-for-joy happy Repeat Chorus

Boston [Live] [Rock Version] 03:12

about

An album about finding the love of my life, and a concept record of songs about the journey from the "hmmm this seems like the real thing" to pandemic bliss. This album featured the singles "Boston" and "Subawuwu." Interesting fact: the cover art is a picture of beautiful wallpaper hidden for many years behind apartment plaster, a symbol for breaking down the walls built up from abuse when you meet The One.
