Chasing Daylight

Sister Hazel Chasing Daylight Lyrics
1.Your Mistake

I'm not right
And I'm not fine
I wanna be rain
that tastes like wine
I wanna be good
I wanna be great
I wanna be everything
except for your mistake

Send me inside
your mind
I wanna know what you're thinking
This time
I'll try
to be the one you always thought you knew
It's true
I'm blue
And without you
I'm not right
I'm not fine
I wanna be rain
that tastes like wine
I wanna be good
I wanna be great
I wanna be everything
except for your mistake

Let me into
your view
I wanna know how you see this thing
that's us
I must
keep managing my madness over you
It's true
I'm blue
And without you
I'm not right
I'm not fine
I wanna be rain
that tastes like wine
I wanna be good
I wanna be great
I wanna be everything
except for your mistake

And I don't want your sympathy
just understanding
Would we be better off if I just took some time
to try to understand you?

I'm not right
I'm not fine
I wanna be rain
that tastes like wine
I wanna be good
I wanna be great
I wanna be everything
except for your mistake

I'm not right
I'm not fine
I wanna be rain
that tastes like wine
I wanna be seen
I wanna get clean
I wanna just fall out of in between
I'm not right
And I'm not right
I don't want to be your mistake


2.Come Around

The sky fell down upon us and
stole away my oxygen
and left me standing breathless there with you
The ocean wrapped around the sun
The smell of June,
the taste of your tongue
is all I'd ever need

I...
I wanna be clear
Well I needed you here
And I'm waiting you out
But you
You don't have a clue
And I'd drive right through
Oh to find you anywhere, yeah

The sky fell down upon us and
stole away my oxygen
and left me standing breathless there with you
The ocean wrapped around the sun
The smell of June,
the taste of your tongue
is all I'd ever need

But you, you keep on waiting
for the sun to come around
And you, you keep on waiting
for something better
better off to come around

And you
Well you wanted more time
So I gave you more time
Oh but I am the sun
that waits to come around

The sky fell down upon us and
stole away my oxygen
and left me standing breathless there with you
The ocean wrapped around the sun
The smell of June,
the taste of your tongue
is all I'd ever need

But you, you keep on waiting
for the sun to come around
And you, you keep on waiting
for something better
better off to come around

Whoa but you were a restless soul
Where's the next best thing
Well I'll wait for you
All my life wait
for you to come around
come around
yeah

The sky fell down upon us and
stole away my oxygen
and left me standing breathless there with you
The ocean wrapped around the sun
The smell of June,
the taste of your tongue
is all I'd ever need

But you, you keep on waiting
for the sun to come around
And you, you keep on waiting
for something better
better off to come around
come around
keep on waiting
come around
you're better off to
come around
come around
come around


3.One Love

We are just children understand
We're two in a million
but precious grains of sand
We slip through the fingers
and dancing on the wind
We find each other

One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One heart - one soul
One life for us to give
One dream - one mind
One sky up above
One you - one me
One love
yeah yeah yeah
One love

A star made a wish on us tonight
Hangin' out in heaven
inspired by our light
And she knows how it feels
to shine on all the world
And last forever

One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One heart - one soul
One life for us to give
One dream - one mind
One sky up above
One you - one me
One love
yeah yeah yeah
One love

Surrender all your battles
It's only love that makes us matter

We are the possibilities
As endless as our imagination

One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One heart - one soul
One life for us to give
One dream - one mind
One sky up above
One you - one me
One love
yeah yeah yeah
One love
yeah yeah yeah
One love
One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One love
One you - one me


4.Best I'll Ever Be

Oh I miss you
I miss being overwhelmed by you
And I need rescue
I think I'm fading away

But I keep thinking
That you'll wake me up with a whisper in my ear
I keep hoping
That you'll sneak in my room

So I wait
And I wait
And I run old scenes through my tired head
of the days that we laid by the school and said forever
Was that the best I'll ever be?

Oh I miss you
I miss talking all night long with you yeah
And I need this to
find a way to your home

Oh, my love
Can you hear me?
Have I been hoping loud enough?
Wishing hard enough?
Can you see me
when I'm asleep all alone
alone?

So I wait
And I wait
And I run myself in the same old circles
I sit
and I stare
and I run old scenes through my tired head
of the days that we laid by the school and said forever
Was that the best I'll ever be?

I can't keep my hands from shaking
I'm stumbling through the wreakage again
But you're gone
So I wait
And I wait
And I run myself in the same old circles
I sit
and I stare
And I run old scenes through my tired head
of the days that we laid on our backs and said forever
Oh was that the best I'll ever be?
Was that the best I'll ever be?
Oh was that the best I'll ever be?


5.Life Got In The Way

We knew it all from a little thing
It was everything in our first minute
And it took us to another place
Yeah another place and we fell in it
How dare you not remember
How dare you walk away
We adored every little thing
Every little thing would leave us breathless
Every dawn split another day
And in another day we weren't so restless
How dare you not remember
How dare you walk away

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
the poets write their books about
I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

We walked around in a heavy haze
We were stuck in days of so much warring
We got lost in a tricky maze
Yeah a tricky maze that was so scarring
How come you can't remember
How dare you walk away
Then you start to add the little things
Add the little things and trip the mighty
Now we got a little bitter thing
A little bitter thing that grew like ivy
And how dare you not remember
How dare you walk away

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
the poets write their books about
I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah and apathy grows quietly
where rapture used to fly
Oh and promises and certainty
have left love here to die
Won't you stay
and don't let this one fall away

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
the poets write their books about
I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah and I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
the poets write their books about
I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah well life got in the way


6.Everybody

You are so sexy my love
You've got me tripping over my tongue
And I can't say what I mean
But I mean it when I say
that I fell so hard for you
that it broke my heart in two
Now I'm wrapped in black and blue
You know I'm crazy 'bout you
Should I take a chance?
Or should I sit and wonder of you?

I wanna tell everybody everybody
that you're so much more than they've ever even seen before
And I wanna tell everybody everybody
If they touched your hand then they'd never want to let you go

Like a junkie to a rush
I'd trade my mama for your touch
Oh, wait that might just be too much
Well I'd do anything but that
You are so tempting my dear
You strip away my useless fears
No you don't care that I'm weird
And that's amazing yeah

Oh as you walk on by
Oh I
I sit and wonder of you

I wanna tell everybody everybody
that you're so much more than they've ever even seen before
And I wanna tell everybody everybody
If they touched your hand then they'd never want to let you go

Standing around
like nobody's watching
Nobody else but me
So far beyond my imagination
If they could only see yeah yeah

Oh you are so sexy my love
You've got me tripping over my tongue
And I can't say what I mean
But I mean it when I say

I wanna tell everybody everybody
that you're so much more than they've ever even seen before
And I wanna tell everybody everybody
If they touched your hand then they'd never want to go no
I wanna tell everybody everybody
that you're so much more than they've ever even seen before
And I wanna tell everybody everybody
If they touched your hand then they'd never want to let you go
Everybody everybody
yeah


7.Swan Dive

Would you think I was crazy
If I stripped on down to my skin or
Would you think I was free as a bee
C'mon tell me - tell me -
tell the truth now
Would you think you could meditate
in the middle of the eye of a hurricane
Would you now but somehow
if we were tethered here together
We could weather out the weather here

And oh yeah I might be crazy -
but that's not the same as insane
And I'm scared -
but that's not the same as being afraid

If I throw myself over the edge
If I find myself in over my head
If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to swan dive - into you

So tell me now what you're thinking
A Lincoln for your thoughts
or a dollar for them all yeah
Well I can take the truth -
no I can't - yes I can
Tell me we were meant
to be - a happy accident
Would you cry if I said it
Would you get it if I told you
that I want you and I need you
Aw that wouldn't say enough
Hell I love you
How bout that yeah

And oh yeah well I might be crazy -
but that's not the same as insane
And I'm scared -
but that's not the same as being afraid

If I throw myself over the edge
If I find myself in over my head
If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to swan dive - into you

Oh yeah well I might be crazy -
but that's not the same as insane
And I'm scared -
but that's not the same as being afraid

If I throw myself over the edge
If I find myself in over my head
If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to swan dive
yeah yeah

If I throw myself over the edge
If I find myself in over my head
If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to swan dive - into you


8.Killing Me Too

Lend me your ear
and I'll tell you about the things I fear baby
Open your heart
and I'll tell you why I'm torn apart maybe
Lend me your heart
and we'll go chase down a falling star
Give me your hand
cuz it takes that fire to understand yeah

When was the last time you felt high?
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
cuz I don't need you to fix me
but I just want you to listen

It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
yeah
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen
cuz you are the only one who cares to hear

Lend me your time
and we'll go somewhere and kill someone baby
Show me your soul
and I'll shine my light where it seems so cold now
Give me your lips
and I'll tell you about all the things I miss the most
Open your mind
and I'll crawl right up and sneak inside of it

When was the last time you felt high?
Oh you were the best I've ever felt
but I don't need you to fix me
I just want you to listen

It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
yeah
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen
cuz you are the only one who cares to hear

Yeah
And oh when was the last time you felt high?
You were the best I've ever felt
and I don't need you to fix me

It's killing me too
It's so wrong not to be with you
It's getting harder to stay awake
yeah
It's killing me too
It stops my heart just to be with you
So listen
cuz you are the only one who cares to hear
to hear me


9.Sword And Shield

Just when the sky runs out of rain
Just when the sun runs out of light
Just when the earth is ill with pain
Just when your body is out of fight
I will be there
I will be the smallest piece in everything
And I would give my life before I break this promise to you

Melt in to me
Don't you want to be the ones that last forever
I'll be your everlasting
And enemies they take your will but they won't last forever
I'll be your sword and shield and
I'll be your sword
I'll be your shield

Just when the ocean starts to dry
Just when the air is sick with smoke
Just when the statues start to cry
And fallen angels they lay broken
I will be there
I will be the smallest piece in everything
And I would lose my life before I break this promise to you

Melt in to me
Don't you want to be the ones that last forever
I'll be your everlasting
And enemies they take your peace but they won't last forever
I'll be your sword and shield and
I'll be your sword
I'll be your shield

I'll be your gracious angel
I'll be your favorite stranger
I'll be the mortar holding your walls
I'll be your army

Just when the sky runs out of rain
Just when the sun runs out of light
Just when the earth is ill with pain
Just when your body is out of fight
I will be there
I will be the smallest piece in everything
And I would give my life before I break this promise to you

Melt in to me
Don't you want to be the ones that last forever
I'll be your everlasting
And enemies they take your peace but they wont last forever
I'll be your sword and shield and
I'll be your sword
I'll be your shield
I'll be your sword
I'll be your shield
I'll be your army


10.Hopeless

A grand empty canvas creating my life
A strange situation - there's no wrong or right
And I'm learning - along the way
From the first time I met you, what could I do
But pray for the strength to see this one through
And I'm tryin' it slips away

A hopeless romantic but nothing feels right
A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
I wait for the answers to fall from the sky

I'm walkin' through trees where the path has been worn
Where hearts have been ripped out trampled and torn
And I'm sorry - I'm sorry once again

A hopeless romantic but nothing feels right
A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
I wait for the answers to fall from the sky - to fall from the
sky
A perfect beginning but why does it end
And when will I learn to let someone in
I wait for the answers to fall from the sky

A hopeless romantic but nothing feels right
A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
I wait for the answers to fall from the sky - to fall from the
sky
A perfect beginning but why does it end
And when will I learn to let someone in
I wait for the answers to fall from the sky

It's hopeless
So hopeless
So hopeless


11.Effortlessly

I won't be so hard on me today
I start to take myself so seriously
Shouldn't be so hard just to be effortlessly
It shouldn't be so hard to keep it together
It shouldn't be so hard to say the right things to you
It shouldn't be so hard just to be effortlessly

(Pre-Chorus)
Weightless worries fall away
Wasted pools of energy
I want to know I want to breathe

(Chorus)
Effortlessly - just be
I want to be effortlessly
I want to be

It shouldn't be so hard to be inspired
It shouldn't be so hard just to write this song
It shouldn't be so hard to be wrong or to agree
It shouldn't be so hard to change the world
It shouldn't be so hard just to change your mind
It shouldn't be so hard just to be effortlessly

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)

I won't be so hard on me today
I start to take myself so seriously
Shouldn't be so hard just to be effortlessly

Effortlessly
I want to know
I want to breathe
I want to simplify my needs
I want to live inside this moment
And just be effortlessly
Just be
I wanna be effortlessly
I want to be


12.Can't Believe

Monday morning brings the sunrise
A welcome sight - a sight for sore eyes
I owe my answers now to no one
Flying high and anchor free
A mirror image passes me
If I had only taken one chance
Stepped up on the stage for all to see

(Chorus)
And I can't believe I waited for tomorrow
I can't believe I'm back here once again - so naive
And the broken white lines lead back to zero
Here I am once again
And again I can't believe

Am I fine or am I crazy
It's all in who you'd ask and what they'd say
I owe my answers now to no one
Flying high and anchor free
A mirror image passes me
If I had only taken one chance
Stepped up on the stage for all to see

Chorus

And I can't believe I waited for tomorrow
I can't believe I'm back here once again - so naive
And the broken white lines lead back to zero
Here I am once again - and again - and again
I can't believe I waited for tomorrow
I can't believe I'm back here once again - so naive
And the broken white lines lead back to zero
Here I am once again
And again I can't believe
