[Intro]
Was lost now I'm found
Head high between the clouds
You brought me down to earth
Babe you don’t know your worth
[Verse 1]
Helped me up when I was on the floor
Gave me keys to open the door
Made me love myself so I could love another
The line was always open if I was in trouble
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I can say what you meant to me
Unlock my shackles, now my heart is allowed to flee
To a person who is willing and worthy
[Chorus]
Was lost now I’m found
Head high between the clouds
You brought me down to earth
Babe you don’t know your worth
[Verse 2]
You were my muse and all of the above
I don’t believe in drugs but I believe in love
Extend a beige branch if I was ever in need
Never knew your palm was vital
Now I feel complete
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I can say what you meant to me
Unlock my shackles now my heart is allowed to flee
To a person who is willing and worthy
(You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
[Chorus]
Was lost now I’m found (You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
Head high between the clouds (You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
You brought me down to earth (You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
Babe you don’t know your worth (You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
[Bridge]
Grown into what I can see in the mirror, (oh yes)
The future was blurred, now I can see much clearer
[Pre-Chorus]
No I can say what you meant to me
Unlock my shackles now my, heart is allowed to flee
To a person
Who is willing and worthy
(You brought me down to the ground
Now I am safe and sound)
[Chorus] x 2
Was lost now I’m found (You brought me down to the ground, now I am safe and sound)
Head high between the clouds (You brought me down to the ground, now I am safe and sound)
You brought me down to earth (You brought me down to the ground, now I am safe and sound)
Babe you don’t know your worth (You brought me down to the ground, now I am safe and sound)
[Outro] x 6
Now I know, I’m sure of my purpose
A lot of things but I know I’m not worthless
I love that you’re here, I love that you’re around

[Intro]
Sweet as molasses
So excited to practice
Like aged grapes from a chalice
'Cause you're sweet as molasses, tasting like magic
New synapses connecting
Your treasure needs protecting
Can you do me a favor
And pay me for all this labor ?
[Verse 1]
I'm so happy you came 'cause I know that it's hard for you to open up
And now you wanna know
If i feel the same way , yes I do, everyday
Do not feel insecure, now let me reassure
Thinking about all the good times, your presence is all I need
And I'm counting on it
Just need a touch of you to push me through
You're making me attain
Clarity for game
Pressure makes a diamond
Regardless of the climate
[Chorus]
Sweet as molasses
So exciting to practice
Like aged grapes from a chalice
'Cause you're sweet as molasses, tasting like magic
New synapses connecting
Your treasure needs protecting
Can you do me a favor
And pay me for all this labor ?
[Verse 2]
Early morning is peace, you're the first thing I see
Want this film on repeat to take my mind away
From the pressures in life, bring me down from a high
Making me wonder why, project a lower type
Moving us forward together, the glue that keeps me sane
I need thicker layers
Home is not just a place, sometimes it's you
Even when it's cold
You ignite my soul
Subtle world endure
Let these feelings sore
[Chorus]
Sweet as molasses
So excited to practice
Like aged grapes from a chalice
'Cause you're sweet as molasses, tasting like magic
New synapses connecting
Your treasure needs protecting
Can you do me a favor
And pay me for all this labor ?

Primrose

Slowly walking through Primrose,
Only routes that we both know.
Autumn leaves kissing the trees,
Ohh I'm in paradise.
Vision clouded by the haze,
Ive been on my knees for days.
Wishing you were here with me,
Right by my side.
My hidden nirvana,
Now you’ve become.
Something that I’ll never forget
(Keeping my head in the water)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Ohh Keeping me warm)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Keeping my head in the water)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Ohh its Keeping me warm, yeah)
Slowly walking through Primrose,
Picture painted now it's sold.
To a vessel filled with love,
And now I’m all alone.
Many colours fade away,
Sugar sweets have lost their taste.
Clutching onto secrets shared,
Kay’s never letting go.
My hidden nirvana,
Now you’ve become.
Something that I’ll never forget
(Keeping my head in the water)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Ohh Keeping me warm)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Keeping my head in the water)
Something that I’ll never forget
(Ohh its Keeping me warm, yeah)
All we got are memories,
Shadows of things that we can’t see X4
Something that I’ll never forget, no
Keeping me warm, yes
Its all I need
(yeah)
Its alright.
Its alright.

Sunday

Braiding your hair
The secrets we shared,
oh my love.
The sound of the rain,
Hitting the pane.
Oh its poetry.
Grabbing your hip,
I know you like that.
Taking a sip,
I know you want that.
Sampled nothing sweeter
My rarest, precious, mamacita yeah
Gimme that love
Lets break bread, then ill break your back
Rituals accustomed that we‘ve grown to have
The suns down,
ill watch you while both your eyes are closed
A blind man could see I’m so,
Grateful to be involved
With you baby
Just you
Let me care for you
Ill cater to you
Every Sunday
Ohhhhhhh
Stroke in your face,
Always in first place.
It feels lovely,
such a good sign.
To lose track of time when you’re here
No place id rather be,
With lucid contingency.
Broke my heart at a cost and
You fixed it for free.
Petals bloom in the winter,
A lease hold to consider.
I know you came first but
the only winner, Is me baby.
Just me
Let me care for you
Ill cater to you
Every Sunday,

The End

Let me tell you, what I really mean
Beauty has been surging through, everything we’ve seen.
Always making me, feel like I can fly.
My guy is telling me, to put up a fight.
Send me kisses and you know that i'll be on my way.
You’ve been working 9 to 5 let me take care of you
I want, you to, always be there.
Will yo, promise and love me till the end.
Cherished touches, coursing through my veins.
I wanna give you all the world,
Along with my last name.
Sinking slowly, into both of your arms.
Comforted by words alone,
Making me feel calm.
Send me kisses and you know that i'll be on my way.
You’ve been working 9 to 5 let me take care of you.
I want, you to, always be there.
Will yo, promise and love me till the end.
You’re what’s on my mind when the goes to sleep,
When you’re far away its harder to breath.
You’re my shining supernova,
When I take you in, I’m far from sober.
Infatuated, understated.
Paired up together I know we’ll make it .
Puzzle pieces like a glove,
When it fits you know its love
Round and round we go,
Something like a merry go.
Numbers falling down,
I just wanna make you proud.
Skating in the skies,
Solid gold I’ve won the prize.
