Better Than I Used To Be (Acoustic) lyrics - Mat Kearney
We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
Talkin' bout' high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me
Better than I used to be
Mmm
I been chasin' this dream
I'm so glad you understand
Climbing up a mountain, would it leave you hardly standing
Things don't go just the way you planned it
But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted
You never know what you got till it's gone
Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one
We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
Talkin' bout' high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me
Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be
It's been a long day alone
And I can hardly stand it
My plane leaves tomorrow
But my heart has already landed
Things didn't go, just the way I planned it
But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted
You never know what you got till it's gone
Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one
You're only one
We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
Talkin' bout' high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me
Better than I used to be, mmm
Better than I used to be
We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
Talkin' bout' high hopes and day dreams
Never thought love never thought life
Could take us far beyond what we believed
As long as I got your love next to me
Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be, oh
Better than I used to be
Better than I used to be
Christmas Miracle lyrics - Christmas Miracle
December nights
Used to never quite burn so bright
Like the orange in your eyes
In the yuletide firelight
And the singing out on the streets
Kids are waiting on the snow
How they feel I finally know
It's a Christmas miracle
That you gave to me
Wasn't hanging in a stocking babe
Or waiting under the tree
I used to not understand
What all the fuss this time of year was for
You're taking my cold cold heart
And making it warm
It's a Christmas miracle
Some people might say
I was a Grinch in my old ways
Til you came my way
With the hope of the holidays
And the singing out on the streets
Kids are waiting on the snow
How they feel I finally know
It's a Christmas miracle
That you gave to me
Wasn't hanging in a stocking babe
Or waiting under the tree
I used to not understand
What all the fuss this time of year was for
You're taking my cold cold heart
And making it warm
It's a Christmas miracle
It's the best time of year
Riding on a one horse open sleigh
With a dear
Now I understand
It's a Christmas miracle
That you gave to me
Wasn't hanging in a stocking babe
Or waiting under the tree
I used to not understand
What all the fuss this time of year was for
You're taking my cold cold heart
And making it warm, warm, warm
I used to not understand
What all the fuss for mistletoe was for
Come a little closer babe
And give me some more
Christmas miracle
Dancing In The Dark lyrics - Mat Kearney
Get up in the evening,and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning,I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired, Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby I could use just a little help
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
This guns for hire even if we're dancing in the dark
Message keeps getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving round the place
I check myself out in the mirror, I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't going nowhere, I'm just sitting in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere, baby I just know that there is
You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark
This guns for hire even if we're dancing in the dark
you sit around getting older, there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders, come baby this laughs on me
Stay on the streets of this town, they'll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry, hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction, come on now baby give me just one look
You can't start a fire, sitting around crying over broken hearts
This guns for hire even if we're dancing in the dark
You can't start a fire, worrying about your little world falling apart
This guns for hire even if we're dancing in the dark
Edge Of The World lyrics - Mat Kearney
C'mon get your hand in mine
Gonna see all we can find
The rainbows grow and the wild wind blows
Gonna leave all the rest behind
Cause I might have found
The edge of the world
Heaven rises inside your voice
Do you see what I can see
Singing ba pa da ba ba ba
Dream a little dream with me
Singing la la la la la la
Painting outside the lines
Maybe we can find the edge of the world
Maybe we can find the edge of the world
Jumping into the deep
Of all that we want to be
See the colors in my head
The purple and the red
Feel it falling down so free
Cause I might have found
The end of time
Oceans falling to your eyes
[Chorus]
Kings & Queens (Acoustic) lyrics - Mat Kearney & Jillian Jacqueline
I don't need much with you my love
'Cause the champagne drains and the airplane fame turns into rust
I don't need much with you my love
'Cause the Hollywood Hills won't ever make me feel as good as us
You got me singin'
We don't need no bankroll make us feel alive
We don't need no Benzo, to feel like we can ride
Richer than Solomon with you by my side
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
We don't need no jet plane feel like we can fly
We don't need no gold chain just to watch it shine
24 karat lives we don't got the time
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
I got everything I'll ever need
You can cash every check try to buy a respect that's incomplete
I got everything I'll ever need
Don't gotta make it to the top yeah to know what I got
With you and me
You got me singin'
We don't need no bankroll make us feel alive
We don't need no Benzo, to feel like we can ride
Richer than Solomon with you by my side
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
We don't need no jet plane feel like we can fly
We don't need no gold chain just to watch it shine
24 karat lives we don't got the time
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
All the feels tonight are real
All that's real you can't buy or steal
All the feels tonight are real
All that's real you can't buy or steal
We don't need no bankroll make us feel alive
We don't need no Benzo, to feel like we can ride
Richer than Solomon with you by my side
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
We don't need no jet plane feel like we can fly
We don't need no gold chain just to watch it shine
24 karat lives we don't got the time
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
We'll be Kings and Queens in our own mind
Times Like This lyrics - Mat Kearney (feat. Devon Gilfillian)
Everybody's tryna say
Say what's on their mind
But somebody's gotta stay
Stay and see the other side
Baby, we ain't tryna run
We were never gonna hide
If the levee's gonna break
Then let the river rise
'Cause we got love for times like this
Times where nothing else makes sense
No, I don't know what comes next
But we got love for times like this
Everybody feels afraid
Afraid of what they find
When the mountain in the way
Feels too hard to climb
Well, the tide is gonna turn
And the sky ain't gonna fall
No, I don't care what you heard
We gonna make it through it all
'Cause we got love for times like this
Times where nothing else makes sense
No, I don't know what comes next
But we got love for times like this, yeah
Times like this
Times like this, like this
Times like this, like this, like this, yeah
Everybody's tryna say
Say what's on their mind
But somebody's gotta stay
Stay and see the other side
'Cause we got love for times like this
Times where nothing else makes sense
No, I don't know what comes next
But we got love for times like this
We got love for times like this
Times where nothing else makes sense
No, I don't know what comes next
We got love for times like this
Times like this
Times like this, like this, like this
Times like this
Times like this, like this, like this
Walking Over The Water lyrics - Mat Kearney
I raised my glass toward heaven
On that night that she was born
Praised your name and gave you thanks
And I bought the house a round
She came like a thief of glory
Stole my pain and gave me life
These tears I thought were long, long gone
Fell like rivers from my eyes
Was that you walking over the water
When the sunlight that came pouring through the cracks
Was that you shining in the face my a daughter
Never thought you’d come again to take me back
Raised my eyes toward heaven
She was floatin’ down our stairs
Backpack and a bright red skirt
And a river of long black hair
He came like a thief of glory
And he stole her heart that day
Ever since she started crawlin’
I always knew she’d sail away
Was that you walking over the water
Well, I watched my baby slippin’ through the cracks
Walked the isle and gave away my daughter
Never thought there’d come a day she would look back
Raised my fist toward heaven
From that dark forsaken road
Blue lights flashed on broken glass
The siren left me cold
He came like a thief of glory
And he left a finger prints
Should I thank you, should I blame you
In a storm that won’t relent
Was that you walking over the water
While the ocean came pouring through the cracks
Was that you calling out Adam’s daughter
I never thought you’d come again to take her back
You always said you’d come again to take us back
Ooooo Ooooo
Ooooo Ooooo
Walls lyrics - ROZES & Mat Kearney
I've been tryna find your heart
But you keep burnin' all the bridges to where you are
I've been lookin' for a spark
But you just disappear and leave me here in the dark
Will it really make a difference
If nobody's gonna listen?
How could you be close to me physically
But feel so distant?
Feels like you drew a long line
And now I'm on the wrong side
And if we don't believe the same, dream the same
You'd leave me on the outside
Behind your walls
You build them up so tall
You don't even hear me calling
Brick by brick I try to tear them down
But you just stand your ground
You don't even hear the sound of
All my canons raging
Behind your walls
Walls
Walls
Behind your walls
I try to find the words
No matter what I say I swear they go unheard
And they scatter like the leaves
I can tell by the look in your eyes
Though that you don't wanna see
Behind your walls
You build them up so tall
You don't even hear me calling
Brick by brick I try to tear them down
But you just stand your ground
You don't even hear the sound of
All my canons raging
Behind your walls
Walls
Walls
Behind your walls
If I could change what made you this way
I'd buy up that house of blame
And burn it down in our name
But you just stay
Behind your walls
Walls
Walls
Behind your walls
Behind your walls
Walls
Walls
Behind your walls
I've been tryna find your heart
But you keep burnin' all the bridges to where you are
White Christmas lyrics - White Christmas
(originally by Bing Crosby)
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
