Why don’t you look at me square in the eyes? What is it baby, that you’re hiding behind? Is there something you want? Is there something you need? Why don’t you speak to me face to face? What is it baby, do you feel out of place? To tell me what you want, to tell me what you need You’re always wanting something for nothing Well not anymore, this time I’m really sure Whatever line you’re trying to sell, I’m not buying it Whatever tale you’re trying to tell, you’re not hiding it ‘Cause I see through your fairytale lies, I’m through with make believe You used you try to be a little more kind But there’s a change in you that’s making you blind To seeing what I want, to seeing what I need You’re always wanting something for nothing Well not anymore, this time I’m really sure Whatever line you’re trying to sell, I’m not buying it Whatever tale you’re trying to tell, you’re not hiding it ‘Cause I see through your fairytale lies, I’m through with make believe Whatever rules you’re trying to change, I’m not buying it Whatever game you’re trying to play, you’re not hiding it ‘Cause I see through your fairytale lies, I’m through with make believe We had our once upon a time when love was all we needed to breathe But while I had the rhyme it seems you lost the reason to feel Whatever line you’re trying to sell, I’m not buying it Whatever tale you’re trying to tell, you’re not hiding it ‘Cause I see through your fairytale lies, I’m through with make believe Whatever rules you’re trying to change, I’m not buying it Whatever game you’re trying to play, you’re not hiding it ‘Cause I see through your fairytale lies, I’m through with make believe

You’re turning me on, come on, undress me with your eyes You don’t give an inch and I ain’t seeking a mile Just make up your mind and find the sense you had of me That night you let me hold you in my arms I’ve got to know where in the hell do I really stand? ‘Cause everyday in everyway you’re pulling me closer I can’t run or hide and believe me, I’ve tried If you don’t want me I’d rather see hell than heaven in your eyes Heaven in your eyes I used to find words to say a lover’s natural way They’d flow inside of me and rain on you But now I can’t speak or sleep ‘cause I’m so in love with you And loving wasteland is what it’s come down to I’ve got to know where in the hell do I really stand? ‘Cause everyday in everyway you’re pulling me closer I can’t run or hide and believe me, I’ve tried If you don’t want me I’d rather see hell Just tell me you never felt, anything at all for me And show me your eyes when you say, ‘girl you’ve got it all wrong, I never tried it on’ ‘Cause everyday in everyway you’re pulling me closer I can’t run or hide and believe me, I’ve tried If you don’t want me I’d rather see hell ‘Cause everyday in everyway you’re pulling me, pulling me, pulling me closer I can’t run or hide and believe me, I’ve tried If you don’t want me I’d rather see hell than heaven in your eyes

I saw a lady take a cigarette Her body swaying, I knew our eyes had met In a hazy time when she drew the line In a shady place called heaven's gate I saw her reeling and walk in front of me And had a feeling, a cold reality She was not alone on the second round Looking around, in a way Eyes never blind but how they stare How they stare when love is taking Over me, silently like a free dream of the night Over me, silently like a free dream of the night She murmured softly to someone at her side Silent only by those mystified But I could read her lips, every single line And there I felt I lost what the devil found Looking around in a place Memories fade, just a face Seeing the changes, They're killing me, killing me baby Over me, silently like a free dream of the night Over me, silently like a free dream of the night Over me, silently like a free dream of the night Over me, silently like a free dream of the night

Ties of Love 03:46
Walking around looks like this way again today You crowd my mind The feelings, they never go. Looking back through a café window I need to tell you so, with these placated eyes These times are killing me And these times are willing me to calling your name, calling your name Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air When I think what you want and I find that you don’t it’s just killing me Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air And they’re weighing me down, twisting around Breaking the ties of love I tried running away, hoping cobbled streets would take me From all this pain But I realize, ties that bind still wrap around my heart and I need to tell you so, with these ever-willful eyes These times are killing me But I’m finally willing to stop calling your name, calling your name Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air When I think what you want and I find that you don’t it’s just killing me Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air And they’re weighing me down, twisting around, what about love Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air When I think what you want and I find that you don’t it’s just killing me Rising sun is in a prayer, sinners’ words in the air And they’re weighing me down, twisting around Breaking the ties of love of love, of love, of love, of love Of love, of love, ties of love, of love

about

This four-track recording comprises remastered versions of songs from the first album Far From Entirely. The idea for the EP came about whilst recording the album at Hi-Top Productions studio. Any song on the album was written on guitar, the founding instrument on almost all of the songs. I had a good idea how I wanted each song to eventually sound but the truth is I still love hearing these songs live. Just me and the guitar. So, I wanted to give listeners a sense of that. For those people who rarely see me perform live, this might give you a better idea.
