COMFORTABLE SHOES
written by Jamie Hosmer

The soles are cracked and weathered
The heels are worn right through
Time has washed the white to gray
The tongue's are tearing in two
I wouldn't trade them, never replace them, I never could
They look so old and ragged
But feel so good right to my heart
I can't walk very far in them
I’m afraid they'll fall apart
They need protection, their imperfections, need to be safe
Now I tread lightly, make no big advances
I tiptoe around in my comfortable shoes
No need for me to take too many chances
Nothing to hope for, cause then I've got nothin to lose
I’m chilling out in my Comfortable Shoes
I used to lace up all the new styles
I would wander far and wide
But I just ended up with blisters
I wonder why I ever tried
Keep to myself now, have no regret now, safe from the storm
The gravel roads and twisted pavement
Trudging through the rocks and rain
Have beaten up this pair so much
Anymore would be insane
Stay out of the weather, keep it together, high and dry
Now I tread lightly, make no big advances
I tiptoe around in my comfortable shoes
No need for me to take too many chances
Nothing to hope for, cause then I've got nothin to lose
I’m chilling out in my Comfortable Shoes
But what if this is just an illusion in my mind?
And I could kick these shoes off for good, one last time
A barefoot leap of faith into my finest hour
What if this fear, I've been holding, is all a lie?
Time to move forward, make some advances
Cause I been tiptoeing around in my Comfortable Shoes
It’s time for me to start taking some chances
So much to hope for, and I’ve really got nothin to lose
It may be a dangerous world, I’ll take the risk,
It’s time that I light that fuse
I’m stepping out of my Comfortable Shoes

Paradise
Written by Jerry Jones and Jamie Hosmer
All Rights Reserved
Time flown. Two was one.
The fiber of a heart undone.
So much has changed, yet everything’s the same.
Same words, same lines.
A promise spoke a thousand times.
Yet it hurts to even speak your name.
Lost, found, and lost again.
I don’t remember how or when,
but somewhere on the road we lost our way.
Same but different dreams to share.
A lifetime between here and there.
And here we are with little left to say.
CHORUS
We all believe in paradise
And making dreams come true.
Just like I dreamed that paradise
was living life with you.
But now my eyes are open wide, and finally I see.
That Paradise is where you are instead of here with me.
Secret life, secret one.
Fully known, but half begun.
Aching so to make the dream be true.
Cannot leave, cannot stay.
Wanting so to run away.
Afraid to just embrace a life with you.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Never ask, never tell.
Thinking that it’s just as well
to swallow all the feelings deep inside.
It’s easier to stay the course.
No hurt feelings. No remorse.
Never let them see the pain you hide.
CHORUS

CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU
written by Jamie Hosmer
AMBIENT SOUNDS OF THE COFFEE CROWD
FILLED THE ROOM, FILLED THE ROOM
I LOOKED AROUND, AND MY HEART HIT THE GROUND
WHEN I SAW YOU, YEAH I SAW YOU
I WAS SIPPIN MY CHAI TEA, WHEN YOU DANCED ON BY ME
AND SAID HELLO, YEAH YOU SAID HELLO
LATTE ON YOUR LIPS, THAT RED DRESS ON YOUR HIPS,
THEN YOU WERE GONE, YOU WERE GONE
I CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU
CAN’T GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD
this beautiful picture inside of my brain, MY ANGEL IN RED
I CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU
I’VE GOT TO SEE YOU AGAIN
I NEED TO LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
BUT UNTIL THEN
I CAN’T STOP THINKING BOUT YOU
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT, I THINK THAT IT MIGHT
JUST BE REAL, IT’S REAL
HOW ELSE CAN I EXPLAIN THIS EMOTIONAL FLAME THAT I FEEL?
AND HOW WITH EVERY BREATH, EVERY BEAT OF MY CHEST
I LONG FOR YOU, I LONG FOR YOU
THOUGH I DON’T KNOW YOUR NAME, I FEEL THIS LOVE JUST THE SAME,
I BELONG WITH YOU, I BELONG WITH YOU
CHORUS
I’VE NEVER FELT LIKE THIS BEFORE
YOUV’E TURNED MY HEART INTO AN OPEN DOOR
YOU’RE UNDER MY SKIN, YOU’RE IN TO MY SOUL
I’M LOSING MY MIND COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL
CHORUS

LOST IN THE RAIN
written by Jamie Hosmer
All Rights Reserved
Pools of raindrop growing deeper
Water seeps in to my shoes
As my world falls down around me
I’m soaked to the bone and feel like a fool.
I thought that we would last forever
A nightly fortress made of stone
But this empire quickly crumbled
Now my heart beats all alone
Love has flown from your eyes
Now all I see if goodbye
Crying out your name
I am Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain
I watched the storm form on the horizon
But I shrugged off the urgency
When the lightening finally struck down
It was far too late for me
Love has flown from your eyes
Now all I see is goodbye
Crying out your name
I am Lost In The Rain, Lost In The Rain
Nothing but a dream
I’m chasing now it seems
Running through this maze
I am Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain
You’ve been drifting away like a boat floating out to see
And I am waving my arms from the shore
Can’t you see me, can’t you hear me
Love has flown from your eyes
Now all I see is goodbye
Crying out your name
I am Lost In The Rain, Lost In The Rain
Nothing but a dream
I’m chasing now it seems
Sinking in this maze
I am Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain
Nothin but a dream I’m chasing now it seems
Sinking in this maze
I am Lost In The Rain
Without you I’m Lost In The Rain

The Answer
written by Jamie Hosmer
All Rights Reserved
There’s an ever flowing river
That will never run dry
The more you drink from the water
It’s power is magnified
It’s been said a thousand times
A thousand different ways
And though we try to complicate it
This simple truth remains
This simple truth remains
Love is always The Answer
That’s never gonna change
It’s always The Answer
because love will conquer all
Love is The Answer
Take a walk to the river’s edge
And sink your hands in slow
Raise the cool water to your lips
And watch the ripples grow
The more you give the more you get
A never ending stream
Is it too simple to understand exactly what this means?
Don’t you understand what this means?
CHORUS
Anytime you feel lost and out of touch
Oh and the answer can’t be found
Just go on down, down to the river
Look inside, drink it up
There’s plenty to go around
CHORUS
Go down to the river
Take a drink from the water
Go down to the river
Take a drink from the water

This Love Is Like Water
written by Jamie Hosmer
All Rights Reserved
When it’s good it’s like a deep, warm ocean of love sent down from heaven
it’s a raindrop blooming into a rainbow, it’s perfection
But then the pressure rises and things heat up
Something sets us off and tempers bubble up
Then we kiss and make up and the whole things starts again
This Love Is Like Water
Up and down like the waves
Hot and cold, ice and steam, it never stays the same
Oh it’s calm, it’s clear, gentle as a stream
Then it’s a raging river faster than you’ve ever seen
Back and forth like the tide
This Love Is Like Water
We float up to the clouds, just to crawl through the mud time after time
Maybe love really is thicker than everything, and really is blind
We climb aboard and head out to sea
Knowing all too well how rough it’s gonna be
And end up swimming back to that sandy beach in the sun
This Love Is Like Water
Up and down like the waves
Hot and cold, ice and steam, it never stays the same
Oh it’s calm, it’s clear, gentle as a stream
Then it’s a raging river faster than you’ve ever seen
Back and forth like the tide
This Love Is Like Water
Leaving you is unthinkable, your so irresistible
We play this game of push and pull
But we both know this ship is unsinkable
This Love Is Like Water
Up and down like the waves
Hot and cold, ice and steam, it never stays the same
Oh it’s calm, it’s clear, gentle as a stream
Then it’s a raging river faster than you’ve ever seen
Back and forth like the tide
This Love Is Like Water

FADE AWAY
written by Jamie Hosmer and Michael Peterson
I’m just a memory,
buried like a thief in a graveyard
You dug this hole deep,
desperate to keep me out of sight,
out of mind.
Hoping in time that I’d just
Fade away.
Like old photos in a cardboard box
down from your grandma’s attic time forgot
But I am not just gonna fade away
like it never happened, wish I could
Just a finger snap and off I’d go
But we both know
I won’t just fade away.
Like rain on dying leaves
each time you think of me tears start falling
Feels like the hurt just happened
And whispering in your ear
a paralyzing fear swears
you are trapped once again
with no defense I’m not sure how to
Fade away
like it never happened, wish I could
Just a finger snap and off we’d go
But we both know
I won’t just fade away
The truth is this was not your fault
Can we agree this is no way to live
we need forgiveness, forgiveness
Help me fade away.
Help me fade away.
Listen to your life
Listen to your life
