"Better Together"
There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard 
And no song that I could sing but I can try for your heart 
And our dreams and they are made out of real things 
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia-toned loving 
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart 
Like why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it’s so hard?
It’s not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving 
I’ll tell you one thing, it’s always better when we’re together 

It’s always better when we’re together 
We’ll look at the stars when we’re together 
It’s always better when we’re together 
It’s always better when we’re together 

And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight 
But I know that they’ll be gone when themorning light sings 
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see 
That they’ll be gone too, too many things I have to do 
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene 
I’d be under the impression I was somewhere in between 
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do 
Or places we got to be we’ll sit beneath the mango tree now 

It’s alwaysbetter when we’re together 
We’re somewhere in between together 
Well it’s always better when we’re together 
It’s always better when we’re together 

I believe in memories they look so pretty when I sleep 
And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time 
And there is no song I could sing 
And there is no combination of words I could say 
But I will still tell youone thing 
We’re better together

"Never Know"
I heard this old story before 
Where the people keep on killing for their metaphors 
But don’t leave much up to the imagination 
So I want to give this imagery back 
But I know it just ain’t so easy like that 
So I turn the page and read the story again and again and again
It sure seems the same with a different name 

We’re breaking andrebuilding and we’re growing, always guessing 
  
Never knowing 
We’re shocking but we’re nothing 
We’re just moments, we’re clever but we’re clueless 
We’re just human, amusing but confusing 
We’re trying, but where is this all leading? 
We’ll never know 

It all happened so much faster than you can say disaster 
Want to take a time-lapse and look at it backwards 
Find the last word and maybe that’sjust the answer that we’re after 
But after all we’re just a bubble in a boiling pot 
Just one breath in a chain of thought 
We’re moments just combusting 
We feel certain but we’ll never, never know 
It sure seems the same, give it a different name 

We’re begging and we’re needing, and we’re trying, and we’re breathing 
  
Never knowing 
We’re shocking but we’re nothing 
We’re just moments, we’reclever but we’re clueless 
We’re just human, amusing but confusing 
We’re helping, rebuilding and we’re growing 
Never know 

Knock, knock, coming door to door 
To tell you that their metaphor is better than yours 
And you can either sink or swim and things are looking pretty grim 
If you don’t believe in what they’re spoon-feeding 
It’s got no feeling so I read it again and again and again

Itsure seems the same, so many different names 

Our hearts are strong, our heads are weak, we’ll always be competing 

Never knowing 
We’re shocking but we’re nothing 
We’re just moments, we’re clever but we’re clueless 
We’re just human, amusing, confusing 
But the truth is all we got are questions 
We’ll never know

"Banana Pancakes"
You hardly even notice 
When I try to show you this 
Songit’s meant to keep you 
From doing what you’re supposed to 
Like waking up too early 
Maybe we could sleep in 
I’ll make you banana pancakes 

Pretend like it’s the weekend now 
And we could pretend it all the time 
Can’t you see that it’s just raining 
There ain’t no need to go outside 

But just maybe, hala ka ukulele 
Mama made a baby 
I really don’t mind the practice 
Because you’re my...
