Summer To Me lyrics - Graham Colton

Long way home
You waited the fall to speak
You shed your skin
But got sand in the pockets
Your sunrayed eyes
You lapped up in the city streets
And long, gray skies
You said you had to move forward

Don't let go, it's only November
You were always summer to me
Finally turned, your smile is so easy
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me
Oh, oh, oh
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me

You're set on spin
And footsteps in the sand don't repeat
And I'm waist-high
With your picture to lock in
Sunrayed eyes
And another night just faded
And long, gray skies
That fall in the ocean but I'm still waiting

Don't let go, it's only November
You were always summer to me
Finally turned, your smile is so easy
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me
Oh, oh, oh
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me
Oh, oh, oh
It's only November

Sunrayed eyes
They lied and I'm still holding on
Those skies
They lied, the days were golden

Don't let go, it's only November
You were always summer to me
Finally turned, your smile is so easy
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me
Oh, oh, oh
Don't give way to the fall
You're still summer to me
Oh, oh, oh
I know it's the summer

Hands Untied lyrics - Graham Colton

Now I'm running with my hands untied
As you walk into your own device
And you're running screaming out your alibis

Now you're lookin' for your color scheme
And you're locked in but you hold a key
It don't matter what you're waiting for
We'll keep running through the open door

What cha running what cha running from
Did you think you were the only one?

All the way tonight
All the life inside
All our stories slowly come to life
Leaving our hands untied

Now you wonder where your photo's been
As you wander on your own again
It don't matter what you're waiting for
We'll keep running through the open door

What cha running what cha running from
Don't you know that we're the lonely ones

All the way tonight
All the life inside
All our stories slowly come to life
Leaving our hands untied

Another Night lyrics - Graham Colton

We'd paddle out into the sun
Into the middle of the ocean
And we were watching all the birds
We were looking for the New World
And there was gold in the sky
And then we couldn't see the coastline
We were floating in the stars
We said we'd never make it this far

We can make another night
I'm awake a little while
We can make another night
Another night

They held each other through the night
And we would shiver in the moonlight
We believed in miracles
And we were calling out to Jesus
And for a moment we'd forget
We're gonna wake up back in your bed
We were living in a dream
Out in the middle of the blue sea

We can make another night
I'm awake a little while
We can make another night
Another night
Another night
Another night
Another night

We'd paddle out into the sun
Into the middle of the ocean
As close as we could ever be
In the middle of the blue sea

Funeral lyrics - Graham Colton

There's blood on my hands
I keep running from what I'm awaiting
I'm counting the days to the fight

Parade on the street
It's gonna be the start of your precession
It's the end of a long goodbye

And I'll be waiting on you
It's what you want
And I'll be waiting when your time comes

Looking down on your funeral
And everyone wants to wish you well
You were young and innocent
And you could sleep inside your head
The water falling down the bedroom walls
Looking down on your funeral

When you began at the end
And they're asking for your resignation
I get the [?]
When the light in the streets
It's gonna be the start of your confession
It's the end of a long goodbye

And I'll be waiting on you
It's what you want
And I'll be waiting when your time comes

Looking down on your funeral
And everyone wants to wish you well
You were young and innocent
You lie awake inside your head
The water falling down the bedroom walls
Looking down on your funeral

Saying farewell, it’s what you want
I’ll be ready when your time comes

Looking down on your funeral
Everyone wants to wish you well
You were young and innocent
You would lie awake inside your head
Water falling down the bedroom walls
Looking down on your funeral
Water falling down the bedroom walls
Looking down on your funeral

Til The Night Runs Out lyrics - Graham Colton

Ooo...

I was 16, you were walking out right, wearing white
I fell asleep in the arms of the summer, we were lost in the night
You played a dress in the summer sun, skin was shining down the stars
Falling faster into love in driveways and backyards

Under your spell
Caught in the starlight
Hand into hand
Was drawn in the sky

And we run until the night runs out
And we four walls are falling down
It's a phone call, the sweetest sound
And we run until the night runs out

Ooo...

She wasn't looking when I found her, she was there to bask in light
I wasn't waiting for the right time, looking for the time of my life

Is it raining in your bedroom?
Did she write it on your arms?
Wandering on your own now
Sadly, you're alone

And we run until the night runs out
And we four walls are falling down
It's a phone call, the sweetest sound
And we run until the night runs out

(Ooo...)
Til the night runs out
Til the night runs out
Til the night runs out

And we run until the night runs out
And we four walls are falling down
And we run at the speed of sound
And we run until the night runs out

(Ooo...)
Til the night runs out
Til the night runs out
Til the night runs out

Shoreline lyrics - Graham Colton

Walking tightrope on the shoreline
You and waves are running in time
Find a way to move us forward
I can't wait these final hours

Walking tightrope on the shoreline
All the days run out with the tide
You and nights are getting colder
I can't wait these final hours

The shoreline
The sun, it hides, the gold is gone
The shoreline
The water says you're walking on
The shoreline
The sun, it hides, the gold is gone
The shoreline
The words you said, I'm holding on

Walking tightrope on the shoreline
You and waves are running in time
Find a way to move us forward
I can't wait these final hours

The shoreline
The sun, it hides, the gold is gone
The shoreline
The water says you're walking on
The shoreline
The sun, it hides, the gold is gone
The shoreline
The words you said, I'm holding on

Arms lyrics - Graham Colton

Maybe on the inside, turning out
Maybe on the outsides, come and gone
Maybe, in a way, I'm holding on
Could be somewhere off in the distance
Just in time to find you all alone
And I know all the wait, I've watched you run

Now, I wander all around, chasing a lie again
All I know traces what might have been

I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
You run away from me

Maybe there's a dark side calling
Maybe it's just something I can't face
Maybe, in a way, I want you gone

I could wait, eyes won't wake me up again
The war is won before the gun is in my hand

I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
You run away from me

You run away from me
You run away, you run away
You run away from me
You run away, you run away

I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me}
I can't open your arms
(You run away, you run away)
{You run away from me...}
I can't open your arms...
(You run away, you run away...)

Before The Fall lyrics - Graham Colton

Trying to find the pieces only make you last the night
Been waiting for the hours to fall until the morning light
Down in the mid-east the time will move us north
Another season, time to find a new world
Waiting for the hours only to pass
Drowning all the seconds, trying to make them last
Are we at the ending? Oh, it's how the story goes
Before the fall

We climb a tower, we can watch the world go by
Over the water, smooth until the midnight
I know that we'll be freezing if we take off all our clothes
We share a secret no one ever knows
We make a promise to jump off at the same time
You're taking off your dress and I will close my eyes
We blend in water cause waiting at night
It's a race for the prize
Before the fall

"Pacific Coast Eyes" (2011)

Love Comes Back Around lyrics - Graham Colton

Some say that life, you can't rewind
Even when time is on your side
Some say that pain, it makes you strong
And you find the strength to carry on

Some say what's lost is never found
But I know your love comes back around

Some say that tears are meant to fall
What good is crying after all?
There are mistakes you can't undo
Then they bring out the best in you

Some say what's lost will soon be found
But I know your love is all around

la da da da la da da da
la da da da la da da da [X2]

Some say what's lost is never found
But I know your love comes back around
Sometimes your feet can leave the ground
But always it's love that holds you down

Some say what's lost will soon be found
I know your love comes back around
I know your love is all around
Always your love comes back around

Waiting For Love lyrics - Graham Colton

All the nights and every day
Thinking that this never would come
I’ve been too tired to fall asleep
And how it feels to finally wake up

I’ve been waiting for love
It has taken so long
The world’s alive, I’m finally waking up
I’ve been waiting for you
There is nothing to lose
After all this time it’s worth it all the while
Waiting for love

Draw the line through everything
All the light I never could see
I’ve given up on second tries
So how you found something in me

I’ve been waiting for love
It has taken so long
The world’s alive, I’m finally waking up
I’ve been waiting for you
There is nothing to lose
After all this time it’s worth it all the while
Waiting for love

Waiting for love
Waiting for love

I’ve been waiting for love
It has taken so long
Now I’m so alive I’m finally waking up
I’ve been waiting for you
There is nothing to lose
The world’s alive, I’m finally waking
I’m so alive and all this time
I’ve been waiting for love
It has taken so long
After all this time it’s worth it all the while
Waiting for love
Waiting for love

Pacific Coast Eyes lyrics - Graham Colton

You made it out of that one house little town
Told yourself would let nobody slow you down
You say goodbye cause you wanted something more
You got a way with you downtown city life
You gonna stay till your somebody's second wife
Where to begin cause you're moving it in to the top floor
Yeah

You got around but you're still just passing through
Those other girls they haven't heard the last from you
You don't stop cause you're setting up shop into the next town

If you leave a mess you leave it all behind
And you still make it back in the nick of time
And you can stay all night if the price is right
You let them come on down

Say you're goodbyes
Your pacific coast eyes start to close
And I'm on the outside
Well maybe its time
Your pacific coast eyes come back home
And I'm on the outside

You made it out of that one house little town
Those other boys you know are gonna come around
You say goodbye said you've never been sure

But now made a mess but leave it all behind
And you still make it back in the nick of time
If you say your goodbyes and hello to blue skis
Sending a post card form your pacific coast eyes

Say you're goodbyes
Your pacific coast eyes start to close
And I'm on the outside
Well maybe its time
Your pacific coast eyes come back home
And I'm on the outside

Now you're everything you wanna be
There's still so much that you don't wanna see

Say you're goodbyes
Your pacific coast eyes start to close
And I'm on the outside
Well maybe its time
Your pacific coast eyes come back home
And I'm on the outside

Say you're goodbyes
Pacific coast eyes start to close
And I'm on the outside
It's a matter of time
Your pacific coast eyes start to roam
And I'm on the outside

Say all your lies
Your pacific coast eyes start to close
And I'm on the outside
In your one house little town

1981 lyrics -

In a crowded room on that summer night
When you fell in love, yeah, you knew it right
When you saw her
She was walking on water
She's a picture, framed in a windowsill
You give up trying to make time stand still
So you hold her
Yeah, you just hold her

All those nights you spent are gone
Do you look back? Now, time goes on

Is life repeating history?
Is love still a mystery?
Did you end up who you thought you would become
Before 1981?
Girl you ever loved
With the windows down and the stars above
It had all begun
Before 1981

You were young and free and you could see for miles
All that life could be with the sun in her eyes
She was golden
And that's when you told her
You couldn't wait and now you know
Cause all you want, you can't let go
It should always be this way
And we can start today

And all those words you said are gone
And you look back, now, time goes on

Is life repeating history?
Is love still a mystery?
Did you end up who you thought you would become
Before 1981?
Girl you ever loved
With the windows down and the stars above
It had all begun
Before 1981
Oh, before 1981

In a crowded room on that summer night
When I fell in love, yeah, I knew it right
When I saw her
So, don't say it's over

Is life repeating history?
Is love still a mystery?
Did you end up who you thought you would become
Before 1981
Girl you ever loved
With the windows down and the stars above
It had all begun
Before 1981
Yeah, before 1981
Before 1981

Graceland lyrics - Graham Colton

It's been thirty days,
Since I've been without you
And it feels okay
Till I think about you
Cause you don't call anymore
There's no shoulder to fall on anymore

So tell me, That you will be on you're way
Tell me, that you're coming back someday
And maybe, I'll make it on my own.
Maybe I'll never know
Just tell me how far to go, to Graceland

What I really need,
Is the closure that you won't give to me,
I still have my regrets
I got you out of my heart,
But you're still stuck in my head.

So tell me, That you will be on you're way
Tell me, that you're coming back someday
And maybe, I'll make it on my own.
Maybe I'll never know
Just tell me how far to go, to Graceland
To Graceland

Now it's been a year
Never thought that I could think so clear,
But I saw you today,
And I fell short of all I wanted to say
Cause damn your words,
Damn this town and damn your ways.

Maybe I'll never know,
Is it too far to go, To Graceland
To Graceland..

Twenty Something lyrics - Graham Colton

i am no magician
i've got no crystal ball
but i have made a few things disappear
all my good intentions
are they ever good enough?
am i only running circles while i'm here?

and i've tried
but trying doesn't always get me there
and i'm fine
even when the way it's going isn't fair
halfway between somewhere and nothing
woke up and i'm twenty something

i'm no acrobat
but i've had my share of falls
i've been walking wires, and climbing up the walls
and i have kept my distance
just close enough to feel
but far enough away to know that what i know is real

and i've tried
but trying doesn't always get me there
and i'm fine
even when the way it's going isn't fair
halfway between somewhere and nothing
woke up and i'm twenty something

this is where it all begins
i'm giving up on giving in now
i'm not afraid of where i've been
halfway between somewhere and nothing
woke up and i'm twenty something

and i've tried
but trying doesn't always get me there
and i'm fine
even when the way it's going isn't fair
halfway between somewhere and nothing
woke up and i'm twenty something

woke up and i'm twenty something
