Two Degrees 03:43
Melbourne's always foggy and unbearably cold, but it's still my favourite city in the whole wild world I've got mates in every pub on every corner, and it feels like home As I walk to work from your house in the quiet light of dawn, the cars all stop to let me pass before they move along To the busy city high-rise buildings where they rule the world It's just two degrees that separates me from where I am and where I used to be As the centigrade drops, my happiness soars and I couldn't ask for anything more I've been trying to give up smoking but it's harder around you, I'm still in awe of every little thing that you do But I've got faith in myself for once, and I'm not letting go Maybe when you hit the road I'll try again, find the motivation in my soul to let me win Find the little spark that remains, and I'll grab hold It's just two degrees that separates me from where I am and where I used to be As the centigrade drops, my happiness soars and I couldn't ask for anything more You tell me that summer's only months away, but I can take the rain and I'm not scared of waiting When the cold air slaps me in the face I count my blessings as I march through every puddle on my way

Airports 04:14
I don't like airports much, but I am aware of the miracle of flight I'm scared of losing touch, but there are only so many hours in each day and night So please know that even though I'm scared to use my phone I am thinking of you always and I miss you all the time It's just that gathering acquaintances and friends around the globe is how I seem to live my life And if Plan A was to grow up happily, in the loving arms of family, then I guess I'm onto Plan B So let's own the road and take the slow way everywhere Arm in arm we'll see new sights and smell new air And when the morning comes we'll jump the train, ride a bus, find a tandem bike that's built for us I don't even care, as long as you are there We always question why, we can't keep up with the pace of everything in our lives And we're so scared of losing time, so we count the seconds and minutes as the hours roll by Maybe soon the day will come when we can walk away, say farewell to 9 to 5s, pack our things up and just go Follow the horizon, chase the seasons and our dreams, and together we'll find a home But if Plan A was to grow up happily, in the loving arms of family, then I guess I'm onto Plan B So let's own the road and take the slow way everywhere Arm in arm we'll see new sights and smell new air And when the morning comes we'll jump the train, ride a bus, find a tandem bike that's built for us I don't even care, as long as you will Own the road and take the slow way everywhere Arm in arm we'll see new sights and smell new air And when the morning comes we'll jump the train, ride a bus, find a tandem bike that's built for us I don't even care, as long as you are there

Right Now 03:56
I couldn't think of a person who I'd rather spend a year of my life with I never thought I'd find a friend who knows me on the inside, you've seen all my flaws Together we crossed oceans and we fought our share of wars Standing hand in hand on Peachtree, there's no other place I'd rather be Than in your arms in Florida where we fucked the night away But we're 10,000 miles from there right now and everything has changed What I wouldn't give to find the words so I could say that All I ever wanted was you It's the single hardest thing I've ever had to do But right now we can't be there for each other Right now we can't make anything better Right now it's gonna be a little hard, but you'll heal I know you will So many reasons and ways that you could make me smile Your messy room and dirty shirts were paradise when I was by your side It's never been a question of how much we were in love But life has flipped the bitch on us and now that's not enough Standing side by side with our microphones, I really thought that I'd found my home You wrapped me up in your everything and made it all okay But it's time to face reality, and how we'll never be what we both need The saddest part is how much we tried to keep on trying All I ever wanted was you It's the single hardest thing I've ever had to do But right now we can't be there for each other Right now we can't make anything better Right now it's gonna be a little hard, but you'll heal I know you will You were always on my mind, no happiness to be defined I would've stood there by your side for all eternity But now's the time for moving on, though everything just feels so wrong I know this is the right move, even though it's hard to see because... All I ever wanted was you It's the single hardest thing I've ever had to do But right now we can't be there for each other Right now we can't make anything better Right now it's gonna be a little hard, but you'll heal I know you will
