Orange Bliss

VERSE
Gleaming sun starbursts blind in my eyes
In a field of orange poppies you and I
Frolic voluptuous rolling hills
And for those sweet hours I swear time stood still

CHORUS
I came alive in California sunshine
And I reminisce in this orange bliss

VERSE
Dig my fingers deep in this rust red soil
To christen the new, relinquish all that came before
I used to think pain meant you felt alive
Now I know what it means to thrive in this lifetime

CHORUS
I came alive in California sunshine
And I reminisce in this orange bliss

Bridge
We love so pure in this innocence
We strive to keep this in our existence
The door’s always been there
We forgot where we’ve stored the key
We retreat to these fleeting memories
When the here and now holds no reverie

Here and now…

CHORUS
I came alive in California sunshine
And I reminisce in this orange bliss

Simple Love

VERSE
Everyone’s talking about
How love’s complicated
Getting them all frustrated
How it’s so overrated
And when they’re singing, yeah
They’re sing the blues
About how they’re getting used
Well, I’m a bit confused ‘cause

CHORUS
We’ve got this simple love
Sent from up above yeah
Don’t need to create misery
To be interesting, no
We’ve got this simple love
And that’s plenty enough for me

VERSE
I’ve got this friend with this broken heart
He says he’s fallen apart
I think he needs a brand new start

I want to tell him that it’s not so bad
Show him what we have
Boy, I’m just so glad ‘cause

Repeat CHORUS

BRIDGE
You make me laugh until it hurts
When I cry, you say it’s just not worth it
When you smile there’s a dimple
And it’s totally perfect and it’s perfectly simple

Breakdown
We’ve got this simple love...

Repeat CHORUS

Not Perfect

VERSE
I’ve got a crooked smile
I’ve walked a few hundred miles
In these here shoes
I’m trying to make you understand
That I’m just a silly person
Who sometimes doesn’t have a clue

CHORUS
‘Cause I’m not perfect I’ve failed in my life
I’ve made some big mistakes, but I’m learning right?
As I get older it becomes clearer
The lines are bolder, I think I’m getting nearer

VERSE
I remember that day
I was driving the wrong way
On a one way street
I’ve pretended to know what something means
Lied about the size of my jeans
But hey that’s just between you and me

CHORUS

BRIDGE
If you put me on a pedestal
I’ve got no where else to go but fall
Sometimes I’m bruised and bandaged
But I’m not disadvantaged at all

Breakdown CHORUS
No, I’m not perfect
As you can see
But I’m 100% heart
And I’m 100% me
As I get older
It becomes clearer
The lines are bolder
I think I’m getting nearer

Repeat CHORUS
