Devastated 05:52
What are you waiting for? You whisper to me slowly You're everything Everything I need and more Guiding me to the floor Your rhythm is so soothing You're everything Everything I've waited for Your just my type Girl you really move me You're giving me the green light Like it happens in the movies The chemistry back and forth Feels like you really know me The club is packed But you and I are here alone The look in your eye is right So come a little closer You're everything Everything I've waited for We don't have to say goodnight You know that it's too hard to take I'm devastated by those eyes I know that we can do this Just show me you know At last, the moment comes Last call has just been made Can I give you a call sometime So we can talk I know your friends are waiting by the door But this evening has been building up For so long It's hard to walk away right now We don't have to say goodnight You know that it's too hard to take I'm devastated by those eyes I know that we can do this Just show me you know

A Circumstance Subtle signs like ashes left On a table, what a mess. You should’ve cleared this up. What am I to do now? What is up? Lips as red as drunkards wine Bathing me with those sorry eyes Who is he to you? Why look at me like that if he’s for you? Like a damsel in distress, Really, damn you, you’re a mess! You should be with me but missed connections Rarely come to be. A circumstance beyond reproach, Guess I should let it go. Seen like a nice thing, Themed like a nice dream. Seemed I was fated for you. No point in waiting, Cause I guess it wasn’t meant to be. One day while riding on the “L” A sunny haze of drizzle fell. By this point in time, I had finally purged you from my mind. Now was it meant, or maybe chance? I saw you then at random glance. I froze with bated breath, And when we spoke I nearly lost myself. As we made it to your stop, You looked so sad as you got off. It’s human nature though, To deny ourselves what we want the most. A circumstance beyond reproach. Oh, I’ll just let it go. Seen like a nice thing, Themed like a nice dream. Seemed I was fated for you. No point in waiting, Cause I guess it wasn’t meant to be. And it’s all I want to know… Are you gonna love me or should I let this go? Subtle signs like ashes left On a table, what a mess. You should’ve cleared this up. What am I to do now? What the f#(k? Lips as red as drunkards wine Bathing me with those starry eyes Who is he to you? Why look at me like that if he’s for you? Like a damsel in distress, Really, damn you, you’re a mess! You should be with me but missed connections Rarely come to be. A circumstance beyond reproach, Guess I should let it go.

She's the city She's the rapture At the fall of dusk she calls on me To start the movement in her heart In the absense of a season When the weather's made for whispering We'll ride to champion the cause of love How can it be When she's full of hope The outside world looks away I'll be there for her I'll be there for her There to burden the weight She's a disparate attraction From the others who would lead me astray Where she is I know that I belong I stand strong in her seduction At the break of dawn she calls on me To set the tone for days to come Words, Music, Performed, Produced by Court Fortier

In The Dark 04:56
When lights are low And summer's heat has set into a room, I wanna be there with you Blowing air upon your sweat to keep you cool. Sultry night, After sunset is replaced by the moon I wanna be there with you Making patterns on your skin with an ice cube. Love is just a dance You gotta feel what moves come next There's a rhythm to time and chance You and me make all the steps Are you comfortable with me? Because comfort is the key It's about trust through the night, It's about faith when it's not in sight. It's about rollin' with ya, Rollin in the dark. Lady love Relax with me, cause that's the key to groove. I'm wanting more with you, And it only gets so much better from here. You gotta feel what moves come next There's a rhythm to time and chance We make all the steps 'Cause comfort is the key Is your body comfortable with me? It's about trust through the night, It's about faith when it's not in sight. It's about rollin' with ya, Rollin in the dark.
