My Little Sorrow by Albert Hogan
Yeah I swore this would never of happened again
I swore it was sunny in the back garden then
I was looking for something then you came along
to the sound of a siren, ninety alarms
Now forever I'll run,
From my little sorrow
Cause i've seen it too much
And I'll feel it tomorrow
So you tell me don't worry
That we're in no hurry
But I know you'll be better then
Chorus
All through the night, I'll be watching her sleeping
All through the day, she keeps her eyes on me
Tell the rag and bone man,
Take what he can
Get it all away
Cause i've already landed at her feet
So you tell me don't worry
That we're in no hurry
But I know you'll be better then
Chorus
All through the night, I'll be watching her sleeping
All through the day, she keeps her eyes on me
So you tell me don't worry
That we're in no hurry
But I know we'll be better then

Talk me through it

Talk Me Through It by Albert Hogan
Lift me off my side
Get going with the wind as the crow she flies
You're immune to days like these
It doesn't mean you'll always be
Washed up with the tide
Afraid to get back in again
Why dance when you know how it ends
Why dance when you don't make friends
I cannot speak
To build that bridge
That you seek
Chorus
So talk me through it one more time
Talk me through it one more time
Instead of acting clever
Let her in
Now the moments passed
It seemed to fade like some dead thing
Where you stand the air gets thin
It doesn't make me like you more
Washed up with the tide
Afraid to get back in again
Why dance when you know how it ends

Don't sweat it baby

Trombone by Albert Hogan
So you blow trombone in the dark
Neon Lights, a fallen soldier
And the strangers that you greet
Pass you by on ragged feet
So you locked the door to your heart
From the start a poison arrow
I see the madness in your eye its no surprise
Its outrageous we're all at sea
A tiny slice staring back at me
Blow the cobbs, ride the wave
It must be Love
Chorus
Don't sweat it baby
Don't sweat it baby now
So you blow trombone in the dark
Neon Lights, raises eyebrows
You feel the room spinning harder now
Wipe that sweat off your brow
So you locked the door to your heart
From the start, his talk was hollow
you see that birds already flown
In the night and with the wind that's blowing

House of plenty

House Of Plenty by Albert Hogan
Which way to the house of plenty
Ask the ones who return along the road
It's always fun until you see how far they go
You'll have to carry this alone
It's the month for being sorry
Todays the day they'll be mapping out your crimes
These delays well they must be yours and mine
Youll have to carry this alone
You'll have to play them to the bone
Safe and sound you loose your reason
Wallow in this evil season
Time to take another one
Time to run
Chorus
City sky, you are the apple of my eye
So dangerous and terrified
Escaping from the crowds
Misfortunes will visit others
You welcome visitors with less then open arms
It’s the eyes that always triggers your alarm
Reaching for the bible in the draw
Some tales are cautionary
Tell them slow so you never loose their ears
You can’t go until you pay them back the years
You’ll have to carry this alone
You’ll have to play them to the bone
Safe and sound you loose your reason
Wallow in this evil season
Time to take another one
Time to run
Chorus
City sky, you are the apple of my eye
So dangerous and terrified
Escaping from the crowds

Natural Light by Albert Hogan
Oh natural light
Shines through my window
Was it all the rocks in the city
Holding hands all stuck in self pitty
I wonder why
These feet keep stumbling
Was it all the things I was doing
Set us on a path to ruin
Chorus
Satisfy, satisfy my broken heart
Cause when you're living on your own
And there's no one to control
Oh natural light
Its coming in through my window
Was it all the things I was doing
Set us on a path to ruin
Chorus
Satisfy, satisfy my broken heart
Cause when you're living on your own
And there's no one to control
Where you gonna go
When there's no one to control
Oh natural light

Get Out While You Can by Albert Hogan
I’ve crossed you once before
I’ve passed your wreckage
Through the streets that bares
The names of some forgotten wars
Are wars were fought and lost
Through faded empty bars
And that place you swore
You’d like to put a match to
I’ll tell you where I am
Your smile is a weapon
Your tales of suitors Passed and present
Falling short
But when the street lights change
You can see the
Then I drank all the long
I smashed your window
When your phone wasn’t on
And it was lost and passed and gone
Then I passed your wreckage
Get out while you can
Get out while you can
Lord have mercy
Have mercy on this man
These boots are heavy still
They might need shining
And the wind blows through this jacket
That you’ve seen before
Curled up on your floor
The night you danced salami
Through your bedroom
Chorus
Get out while you can
Get out while you can
Lord have mercy
Have mercy on this man
