Picturesque

Chase Coy Picturesque Lyrics
1.November

Do you remember
The chill in the air in November?
The autumn breeze wrapped us in blankets
And we held our breath and closed our eyes.

Do you recall that
We thought it would all last forever?
The days of our youth and the weather
And the love that we wore on our chests.

But all good things must end.

And do you remember
Watching the sun set together?
The rays of the sun lit up every last one
of the memories we held in our fists.

Do you recall that
We always swore that we would never
Forget all those days and weather that
led us to display our love on our chests.

But all good things must end.

And we both know
That we were just making the poorest excuses
Like we all do
Just to feel like we have something solid
To hold on to.


2.Who's To Say

You were so bitter for so very long,
I was young and refused to be wrong.
And in the end, we couldn't save
what we both helped to make.

And maybe we've made some mistakes.
And maybe I've witnessed the way a heart breaks.
And maybe I should've done things differently.
But I didn't, and we parted ways...
Who's to say things aren't better this way?

I swear that I'm sorry that I couldn't be
the hero that you wanted from me.
And in the end, we couldn't fix
what we both helped to break.

And maybe I've made some mistakes.
And maybe I've witnessed the way a heart breaks.
And maybe I should've done things differently.
But I didn't, and we parted ways...
Who's to say things aren't better this way?


3.Picturesque

And the sun is pouring in
through the window
and right onto your skin
and I've never seen a portrait
quite so picturesque

and the hours slip away
I always struggle for the right words to say
'cause how could i try to describe in sentences
that I cant believe a girl like you exists.

so don't forget don't forget to smile
when you see the sun come out
'cause your laughter and your love
are all I've been thinking about
just the thought of you sustains me
and that smile of yours can make the whole world new
I love the way I feel when I'm with you

and when you say hello it
makes me happier than you could ever know
the way you light up every room you've ever walked into
makes me glad that I'm with you

so don't forget to smile when you see the sun come out
'cause your laughter and your love are all I've been thinking of
just the thought of you sustains me
and that smile can make the whole world new
I love the way I feel when I'm with you

And the sun is pouring in through the window,
and right onto your skin


4.Never Had The Courage

I've diled your number, half a thousand times.
Hoping just to hear your voice on the other line.
I never had the courage to finally make that call.
I've been missing you so much,
Have you been missing me at all?

I need you here now, more than ever before.
Cause if you're not by my side,
then tell me what is worth living for?
I never had the courage to tell you how I feel.
But honestly I've always loved you and I promise I always will.

Don't take your time coming home tonight.
Cause every second wasted I'm here holding on for life.
And with every breath I take I pray you're fine.
That I'm the boy you can't get of your mind.

I never had the courage to tell you this before,
But every day away from you just makes me love you more.


5.These Things

Lately, I have been getting impatient.
I can feel every second of every hour, every day.
Lately, I have been thinking too much,
And the thought of all the years I'll have to wait keeps me
awake.

Time is passing oh-so slowly...
Oh, they say 'the future's looking bright.'
And I know 'these things take some waiting,'
But aren't we told that all the time?

Lately, I have been feeling like I am stuck with my roots in the
ground,
But I am ready to move on.
Lately, I have been searching for words to describe how I'm
feeling,
But lately, all the words I have are wrong.

Time is passing oh-so slowly...
Oh, they say 'the future's looking bright.'
And I know 'these things take some waiting,'
But aren't we told that all the time?

Time is passing oh-so slowly...
Oh, they say 'the future's looking bright.'
And I know 'these things take some waiting,'
But aren't we told that all the time?


6.Airplanes

On a runway once again on my way out of town
I think that I'm gettin to use to this and I don't know when
I'll be back
Don't know when I'm comin back down
Am I comin back down?

The wheels are up I am stuck staring out of this window
Over the wing and the scariest thing is the fact that I'm
practically
Living on planes these days, on these airplanes

So I'm waiting on the landing gear
To bring us down so I can hear your voice
And I'm getting out my cell phone
now to speed dial your house

Cause it rains all day when I'm away
And I can't have you with me
And all that I can think about,
is how much you love the city
And I want you here with me

There's a canvas of clouds below my feet
I'm painting it homesick because all that I love is behind me
I hope you still find me

Soon I'll be paying for taxis and riding in backseats
On my way back to hotels when I want my own bed
I get these instead

So I'm waiting on the landing gear
To bring us down so I can hear your voice
And I'm getting out my cellphone
now to speed dial your house

Cause it rains all day when I'm away
And I can't have you with me
And all that I can think about,
is how much you love the city
And I want you here with me


7.If The Moon Fell Down (Feat. Colbie Caillat)

Every time I see your smile
It makes my heart beat fast
And though it's much too soon to tell
I'm hoping this will last

Cause I just always wanna have you right here
By my side
The future's near
But never certain
At least stay here for just tonight

I must have done something right
To deserve you in my life
I must have done something right along the way

I just can't get you off my mind
And why would I even try
Even when I close my eyes
I dream about you all the time

Cause just always wanna have you right here
By my side
The futures near
But never certain
So please stay here for just tonight

I must've done something right
To deserve you in my life
I must've done something right along the way

And even if the moon fell down tonight
There'd be nothing to worry about at all
Because you make the whole world shine
As long as you're here
Everything will be alright

I must of done something right
To deserve you in my life
I must of done something right along the way


8.Anniversary

I know that I'm awake, but I'm dreaming all the same.
I know that you are scared, but baby, don't be.
'Cause it's one thing to say everything will be okay,
And quite another thing to believe it.

I know that sometimes, things can get so rough,
And I know that sometimes, words are not enough.
And I know, it's been a hard year being apart,
But it was better than the one before.

I know that we're okay, but I worry all the same.
I know that you are strong, but you don't always have to be.
'Cause it's one thing to say everything will be okay,
And quite another thing to believe it.

I know that sometimes, things can get so rough,
And I know that sometimes, words are not enough.
And I know, it's been a hard year being apart,
But it was better than the one before.


9.Coming Clean

I'm a coward.
I hide behind all of these delicate lies that I sing;
But I'm trying to come clean.

I'm so lonely
Surrounded by people who know me
but don't know a thing,
so I'm trying to come clean.

And every relationship I've ever been in,
has fallen apart at the seems.
And I'm just afraid I've been singing about love but ill,
never find out what it means.
And if I was honest about
what the problem is I'd have to admit that it's me.
I'm just trying to live up to all that you want me to be.

I'm a liar
I sing pretty things but I never quite say what I mean.
So I'm trying to come clean.

I'm so sorry.
I know that I can't take it back no I can't change a thing.
So I'm trying to come clean.

And every relationship I've ever been in,
has fallen apart at the seems.
And I'm just afraid I've been singing about love but ill,
never find out what it means.
And if I was honest about
what the problem is I'd have to admit that it's me.
I'm just trying to live up to all that you want me to be.


10.Take Me Away

Take me away to January,
I'm done with this year.
I'm tired of everyone here.
I'm tired of everyone here I just need some time alone
Before I'm ready to come back home

There's gotta be something else out there for me,
I could feel it in my heart
The day I started to dream.
There's more than this Midwestern town
I can't let this place keep me down

So I tell myself

There's a girl out on the coast of California
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you.
And I can hear it calling my name, tonight

Take me away I need the sand and the waves, the sunset,
And lets not forget those warm Autumn days.
I just need to get out of here
And vist the coast just to see her.

There's gotta be something else out there for me,
I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream.
There's more than this Midwestern town.
I can't let this place keep me down.

So I tell myself

There's a girl out on the coast of California
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you.
And I can hear it calling my name, tonight

There's a girl out on the coast of California
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you
And I can hear it calling my name, tonight

Take me away to January,
I'm done with this year.
I'm tired of everyone here.
I just need sometime alone before I'm ready


11.Eight-Dollar Engagement Rings

We met more than two years back
It's frightening how time can go by so fast
that you don't even notice when it's gone
There's something about Ohio that I can't help but love
But sometimes the highway miles seem so long

So don't cry, darling, I'll be there in the morning
but you know, that the worse part is always heading home

We spent so much time apart
I know, sometimes it's hard
but girl, but if there's one thing I'm sure of, it is us
besides, we have the small things
like eight-dollar engagement rings
to keep us sane 'till you get on that bus

So don't cry, darling, you'll be in the morning
but you know, that the worse part is always heading home

One day we'll start our new life behind the glow of the pale
city lights
in an apartment of our own
it will be so perfect and we'll both know that it was worth the
wait
I can hardly wait for that day to come

So don't cry, darling, cause one day every morning we'll both
know
that the best part is always heading home


12.Losing Sleep

We're both losing sleep just to make our time last.
Always in a hurry just to grow up too fast,
But we've got time.
Yeah, we've got time.

The season's always changing,
But we can't let go yet.
Setting two alarms in case we happen to forget that we've got
time.
Yeah, we've got time.

And you don't have to go.
We've got our plans, but we keep our voices low.
And baby, that's the way that these things go
We must be patient while we're waiting for
the final chord to play out for our song.

We're both losing sleep just to make our time last.
Trying just to hold on to the memories that we have,
But we've got time.
Yeah, we've got time.

A year's already passed us,
But we can't let go yet.
The calendar reminds us
when we happen to forget that we've got time.
Yeah, we've got time.

And you don't have to go. (you don't have to go)
We've got our plans,
But we keep our voices low. (keep our voices low)
Baby, that's the way that these things go...

And you don't have to go. (you don't have to go)
We've got our plans,
But we keep our voices low. (keep our voices low)
Baby, that's the way that these things go-
We must be patient while we're waiting for
the final chord to play out for our song.
So in the meantime, take a breath and sing along.


13.Middle of June

A warm afternoon in the middle of June,
And you didn't know that I'd fallen for you.
The long nights we stayed up, excuses we made up,
And I didn't know that you felt this way too.

There's nothing as sweet as your voice is to me.
It's better than summer and spring.
The words that you speak bring such
Comfort to me when we're miles apart and I'm lonely.

And as I recall, it was
Presidents' Hall where I found you, a year had gone past.
The long days without you spent thinking about you,
And all of the memories they came flooding back.

There's nothing as sweet as your voice is to me.
It's better than summer and spring.
The words that you speak bring such comfort to me
When we're miles apart and I'm lonely.

And darling I won't ever let you go,
So I just thought that I'd let you know.

There's nothing as sweet as your voice is to me.
It's better than summer and spring.
The words that you speak bring
Such comfort to me when we're miles apart and I'm lonely


14.Closer

It's just a few more weeks 'til I'll be
Holding you in my arms, baby.
The rising cost of gasoline and long-distance calls
put miles between us.

We saw the stars come out that evening
And sail across the sky on kite strings.
Some talk about the future and the plans we have.

And I don't know what else to say to you,
I just wanna be the face you wake up to.
And trust me, baby, we'll be together soon,
'Cause I just wanna be closer to you.

I promise that I mean every word
More than I thought I ever could.
Calling you each night just to hear your voice.

And I don't know what else to say to you,
I just wanna be the face you wake up to.
And trust me, baby, we'll be together soon,
'Cause I just wanna be closer...
And I just wanna be closer...
I just wanna be closer...
I just wanna be closer to you.

I just wanna be closer...
I just wanna be closer...
I just wanna be closer to you.

And I don't know what else to say to you,
I just wanna be the face you wake up to.
And trust me, baby, we'll be together soon,
'Cause I just wanna be closer to you.
