Brown Eyes 03:17
It happened like a dream Most gorgeous girl that I had ever seen In all my life I couldn't help but stare I couldn't help but notice her brown hair And dark brown eyes But little did I know how things would surely go She's not the woman I took her to be And I know what they say But I love her just the same 'Cause she's a beautiful heartbreak, breaking my heart so beautifully 'Cause she looks like an angel But she talks like the devil 'Cause she's nothing but a demon in disguise But I don't know that there's another in the world that's quite as beautiful as this brown eyed girl She took me surprise Her soul was just as dark as her brown eyes But God forbid She tore my life apart But her beauty covered up her wicked heart And I'm glad it did 'Cause little did I know how things would surely go She's not the woman I took her to be But I don't even care 'Cause she loves me and I swear that there's nothing quite as sweet as that bitter heart can be

I know you wanted me to understand you I know you wanted me to care I know you wanted something more than an affair I know you wanted me to be your father I know you wanted me to learn I know you wanted me to meet all of your terms But, we see how that worked 'Cause girl it didn't last But, I'm hoping that you see I'm sorry that I'm not the man you wanted me to be I know you wanted me to write you letters And call you up before you sleep I know you wanted me to move to Tennessee I know you wanted me to stop pretending that everything would be okay I know you wanted me to love you anyway Now you find a man that treats you well And he loves the Lord with all his heart And I'm sorry that I couldn't just live up to that I know you wanted me to say I love you I didn't want to say, "So long." I know you wanted me to just write you a song I'm hoping that you found the man you wanted me to be

I talked to Jesus and he told me I was wrong about everything that I had ever known I heard the Holy Ghost He whispered in my heart and he showed me every sin that I had done All the lies, all the greed All the war that I had waged against my friends and enemies And oh, I’ll never see That no one else is perfect ‘Til I recognize my own humanity I saw the Father and he looked me in the eyes And I witnessed the forgiveness on his face He said, “In spite of what you do, I love you all the same. 'Cause that is the significance of grace.” All your lies, all the greed All the war that we have waged against our friends and enemies But oh, we’ll never see That none of us are perfect ‘Til we recognize our own humanity I felt the Devil, and he tried to do me wrong Yeah, Satan tried deceiving me again He showed me all the sins of everyone I knew 'Cause maybe I’m not quite as bad as them All their lies, all their greed All the war that they have waged Against their friends and enemies All the sex, all the drugs, All the pride that they achieve All the pain that they have forced on their entire families But oh, we have to see That no one else is perfect and we’ll all just go berserk and then we’ll never make it work unless we recognize our own humanity I talked to Jesus and I told him I was wrong About everything that I had ever known

You say you don't know what to say If you'd ask me I'd say the same Words don't come like they used to come to me I can't tell you what's on my heart Maybe it's just a bit too dark Maybe I am just scared of what I'll find Maybe I'll find everything is a lie Maybe I'll find that I will never know why Answers will never make you whole They'll just leave you with bigger holes Wondering if you will ever feel (fill) again Questions fill me with endless doubts And I'm finally finding out Knowing everything doesn't do a thing The more I know, the less I know in the end The more I grow, the more I'm finally content

Moon 04:00
I've been looking at the man in the moon And I've been wondering if he comes out during noon I've been thinking about the girl on my mind And I noticed that she's one of a kind Oh, mister Moon, won't you walk me through this 'Cause the skies are looking clear And you're the only one that's here tonight And I don't know what to say to her But I want to run away with her And there's no one here to help me out You're the only one who's with me now And so, mister Moon, I'm trusting you I've been thinking about the meaning of life And what it takes for her to want to be my wife And I've been wondering how the moon could shine so bright When it never even shines by its own light I don't know if I will ever be her man But I would love it if you'd help me while you can
