Track Name: attached to you
even though i know it's true
that we're not one thing, we're always two
different people with different ways
i never want to be estranged from you

it's true
i feel very attached to you

sometimes i want you to travel from me
across all the rivers and across all the seas
and when you return and stand at my door
and fill me with stories of all that you saw

it's true
i feel very attached to you
Track Name: yesterday
feel the future fall away
and hold the hopes that what you'd say
might make the mysteries escape
and bring the brightness back today

watch you fall away

foreign forces finalised
the hopes and hurt i hoped to hide
the missing moments must remind
the broken bones you left behind

watch you fall away

and all i've got is yesterday
and everything i'd hoped you'd say
Track Name: it's not me
can you see right through to the inside of my heart
where storms brew and shoots grew right back at the start
there was so much hoping and dreaming to be
the one for you but i know it's not me

i know and you know
we both know it's not me

there's a very long road that we'll walk down alone
it's scary and you can't always find your home
all i can do is just keep walking through
don't turn around, don't go back cause i've worn out my shoes

all this walking away
sometimes i just want to stay
i know and you know
we both know it's not me
Track Name: tuesday night
on tuesday afternoon i go
to the supermarket cause i know
there's sweets and treats to bring back home for you

on tuesday night you come around
i get out the treats i found
i make the tea, then write some songs with you

we'll sit and play and sing
and i can forget everything
that gets me down
on the other nights
