This Is What We Do

I never thought it would hurt so much
When you turned and walked away
I never knew I felt so much
That I'd be left with nothing to say
You've taken all my words from me
And you've taken my heart, too
You've taken all my dignity
Cause now I'm chasing after you
So I run, run, run to apologize
For what I've done, done, done
Just to make it right
Now I know, know
No matter how hard I try with you
This is what we do
I never thought I would get the chance
With a girl as fine as you
I never knew this crazy dance
Would leave me one instead of two
I'm finding out your wicked ways
And I'm finding out the truth
But damn, your pretty face
Keeps me chasing after you
So I run, run, run to apologize
For what I've done, done, done
Just to make it right
Now I know, know
No matter how hard I try with you
This is what we do
I say the wrong thing
And you don't like it
Baby, this is what we do
I do the wrong thing
And you don't like it
Baby, this is what we do
So I run, run, run to apologize
For what I've done, done, done
Just to make it right
Now I know, know
No matter how hard I try with you
This is what we do

Lemon Street

The trees are casting shadows
The moon is peering through
The road's reflecting pictures
A distant dream of you
Gone but not forgotten
I've seen this road before
Through the eyes of someone
That I'm not anymore
The devil's down to make a deal
It's bitter like a lemon peel
He's gonna get you good, believe me
Johnny Walker, take it neat
Just take me down to Lemon Street
Where memories turn into strangers
Fumble to find your footsteps
Struggle to find your feet
Singing in the moonlight
Lost on Lemon Street
You can't predict the future
You can't forget the past
We just have this moment
Cause nothing ever lasts
A heart full of confusion
Fractured like a dream
Lost in the illusion
That time will set you free
The devil's down to make a deal
It's bitter like a lemon peel
He's gonna get you good, believe me
Johnny Walker, take it neat
Just take me down to Lemon Street
Where memories turn into strangers
Fumble to find your footsteps
Struggle to find your feet
Singing in the moonlight
Lost on Lemon Street

Something deep within me
Needs to wander around
To see the world I live in
To get lost and then be found
I've driven every highway
I've sailed across the ocean
I've lived in different places
But just one has my devotion
Colorado
Where the sun sets like gold
Over the Rockies
Burning purple in the glow
Colorado
It doesn't matter where I roam
I take you with me
Cause you'll always be my home
Oh, Colorado
I've walked across the Golden Gate
I've seen the desert sunrise
Lost myself in Jersey
Adored the southern skies
I embrace the way that people live
Everywhere I go
But nothing beats the people there
In the place that I call home
Colorado
Where the sun sets like gold
Over the Rockies
Burning purple in the glow
Colorado
It doesn't matter where I roam
I take you with me
Cause you'll always be my home
Oh, Colorado
South Park - Red Rocks
And all the finest beer
The sun shines - the snow falls
Any time of year
Pass that over here
Colorado
Where the sun sets like gold
Over the Rockies
Burning purple in the glow
Colorado
It doesn't matter where I roam
I take you with me
Cause you'll always be my home
Oh, Colorado

Don't Think About It
03:52

Should I remember everything that you ever say?
I'd never get all my ducks in line
Should I ask for forgiveness?
"Will you ask for it to?"
The Devil whispers in your ear
Like the moon
Tell me all your secrets
And I'll keep them to myself
Tell me all your stories
While we lay our worries down
Today never knows
What tomorrow holds
Today never knows
What tomorrow holds
Don't think about it
Just go on living
Don't think about it
Should I take off my shirt to clothe you?
I really don't want to, but I will
Should I swallow all my hurt
So you can fly?
The angels up above beg me to try
Pour a shot of whiskey
And I'll drink it to your health
God, grant me the strength
To care more for you than for myself
Today never knows
What tomorrow holds
Today never knows
What tomorrow holds
Don't think about it
Just go on living
Don't think about it

Homecoming

You know that feeling
When there's a place you'd rather be?
A place where you belong
A mountain or a beach
It happens while you work
You just stop and stare
A train of thought arrives
It's come to take you there
Home is where the heart should be
I'm going down to Tennessee
It's been a long time coming
But it's a homecoming for me
You know that moment
When you know it's time to leave?
The highway calls your name
And gives you something to believe
It switches like a light
You wake up and it's spring
The world has come to life
It's time to spread your wings
Home is where the heart should be
I'm going down to Tennessee
It's been a long time coming
But it's a homecoming for me
We all have things inside of us
Begging for release
Well, sometimes you gotta go
A feeling we all know
Home is where the heart should be
I'm going down to Tennessee
It's been a long time coming
But it's a homecoming for me

Baby Blue

It's closing time and we're still here
Let's grab another Belgian beer
And shut the bar down
Then walk out to the parking lot
Get in the car, get out the pot
Take a hit, kiss, and mess around
Get lost in one another
Til the sun begins to shine
When I'm with you
Nothing else is on my mind
I got you there to lift me up
I got you there to let me down
I got you to satisfy my loving
I got you my baby blue
Woke up in a sea of sheets
Still swimming in the fantasy
Your skin against mine
You don't have to try real hard
Cause I like you just the way you are
Messed up hair, and sleepy angel eyes
Let's get lost in one another
Until the sun goes down
Nothing else matters
When the one I love is around
I got you there to lift me up
I got you there to let me down
I got you to satisfy my loving
I got you my baby blue

Craig Haller Nashville, Tennessee
Craig Haller was born with a chip on his shoulder and a song in his heart. His music is the byproduct of many hours spent in obsessive contemplation. With a flair for memorable melodies and an overabundance of poetic license, he happily casts himself as lord of his own creative landscape—a land of genre fluidity, appetizing aural atmospheres, and turns of phrase that refuse to be pinned down. ... more
