Beautiful Surprise

I didn't know if I would ever really grow up
I didn't know if I would find someone who cares as much as me
I didn't know if the time would ever come when I'd believe
But I believe
That you are the most beautiful surprise
I'm trying to stay grounded while I'm at an all-time high
And I don't want to let you down and I don't want to say goodnight
'Cause you are the most beautiful surprise
I'll walk you home if you're not ready for your close up
We'll put down our phones and we'll get real about our insecurities
I want to show you I can be someone who makes you want to believe
In me
'Cause you are the most beautiful surprise
I'm trying to stay grounded while I'm at an all-time high
Captivated by the way you move and the way you look tonight
'Cause you are the most beautiful surprise
And even when it's not so new I'll stand by you, my love
Even in the times we come down off this high, I'll still be right there at your side
'Cause you are the most beautiful surprise
I'm trying to stay grounded while I'm at an all-time high
Suspended in this moment as I step into your light
'Cause you are the most beautiful surprise
You are the most beautiful surprise

Fi's Song

We're running late and the phone is ringing
I can feel the weight in the room
We're struggling to keep everything on track
And I'm close to losing my cool
'Til I catch a glimpse of you
I don't have all the answers, but I'll always tell the truth
I'll do anything I can to help you through
They could set me out to sea until I disappear from view
But the one thing that I know is
I have fallen for you
I have fallen for you
You are the grace in the chaos of this world
Remember when times are tough
There's nothing that you could do to sway me, girl
There is no end to my love
And whatever you are is enough
I don't have all the answers, but I'll always tell the truth
I'll do anything I can to help you through
They could pack me up in boxes in the corner of the room
But the one thing that I know is
I have fallen for you
I have fallen for you
Do you know just how long we dreamed about you
How much we thought about you
How long we dreamed about you
How hard we wished to bring you here
I don't have all the answers, but I'll always tell the truth
I'll do anything I can for you
'Til the stars burn out and all we have are glimmers of the moon
The one thing that I know is
I have fallen for you
I have fallen for you
I have fallen for you

Sink or Swim
04:07

I think we're alone now
It's all open ocean beyond the bow
I think we're at home now
Our place has finally been found
It doesn't matter where we're going
It doesn't matter where we've been
But if we're thrown into the ocean
Would we sink or would we swim?
Would we swim?
You'll be alright, I'm by your side
We'll sail all night away from
Everything we've been
We'll begin again
Keep your head up, 'cause it's not over
If the waves get rough, just climb on my shoulders
'Cause it's colder where I've been
Than it is anywhere I'll be when I'm with you
Will we sink or will we swim?
Are we alone in the ocean?
Will we sink or will we swim?
Will the tide pull us back in?
If I can keep my composure
I think the darkest days are over
Maybe one day when we're older
We'll be so much closer
To all the things we've dreamed of
And all the things we've never been
So would it be too much to ask
If we forgot about the past?
Am I coming on too fast?
Am I coming on too fast?
Will we sink or will we swim?
Are we alone in the ocean?
Will we sink or will we swim?
Will the tide pull us back in?
I know we're alone now
It's all open ocean beyond the bow
But I feel at home now
Do you feel it?
Do you feel it?
Keep your head up, 'cause it's not over
If the waves get rough, just climb on my shoulders
'Cause it's colder where I've been
Than it is anywhere I'll be when I'm with you

So Damaged
04:58

In some strange way
You're wrapped around my mind
And I can't hide away
The thoughts of all the times
I gave in, you gave up
We were searching for redemption
Cheap red wine in plastic cups
Couldn't make it okay
And we could find the darkest thoughts inside our cluttered home
And they could hold us back against the wall
Because in time we will forget the things that we have done
But peace of mind won't save our souls
But in the dead of night it's so clear
As the moonlight plays across your face
I get the feeling we belong here
You are an inspiration I could never replace
Despite the past that has left us both so damaged
But my hands on your waist somehow make it okay
And we could find the darkest thoughts inside our cluttered home
And they could hold us back against the wall
Because in time we will forget the things that we have done
But peace of mind won't save our souls
And I will wait here if you fall
(Wait here if you fall)
And I'll be your strength to carry on
(Strength to carry on)
And if we make it after all
(Make it after all)
I'll be your breath as you sing along
Just take my hand, I'll pick you up
Baby, I'll be your redemption
You be mine, that's enough
To make it okay
And we could find the darkest thoughts inside our cluttered home
And they could hold us back against the wall
Because in time we will forget the things that we have done
But peace of mind won't save our souls
And I will hold you close so that you know you're not alone
And we won't dare to turn away again
And after everything that we've been through together
At least we know we'll have each other in the end

Safe to Say

Hey girl
It's safe to say that I've been falling for you
It's safe to say I'm gonna fall a little more each day
Hey girl
It's safe to say that this was worth the wait
It's safe to say that all our missteps and mistakes led here
Take it from me, I never believed in destiny
'Til you came along, and got me thinking maybe I was all wrong
Hey girl
It's safe to say you made this house a home
It's safe to say we'll never have to be alone again
Hey girl
It's safe to say I'll never let you down
It's safe to say that we were lost and now we've found our way
Take it from me, I never believed in meant to be
'Til you came along, and now I know we're right where we belong
And when I reflect on how we've come this far
It's not so hard to believe that it was written in the stars
Take it from me, I never believed in destiny
'Til you came along, and got me thinking maybe I was all wrong
(Maybe I was all wrong)
Take it from me, I never believed in meant to be
'Til you came along, and now I know we're right where we belong
Where we belong
Where we belong
