Extraordinary Magic

length: 2:53
writer: Ben Rector, Ben Shive


You won't believe it, strange as it sounds
Extraordinary magic follows you around
And the camera can't catch it, you won't see it in the mirror
If I say look behind you, you turn around, it disappears

But I see it, I see it
I swear I do
I see extraordinary magic in you

Outta thin air, you appeared in my life
Like a burst of technicolor in a world of black and white
When my heart was locked inside a box, you reached inside
And now I see my future when I look into your eyes

I see it, I see it
I swear I do
I see extraordinary magic in you

And I know that miracles happen
Who cares what they say (mmm-mmm-mmm)
'Cause love's nothin' short of a miracle
Happenin' over and over, every day

So I'll keep my eyes open, awed and amazed
And if you start to doubt it, I'll remind you of the million ways

I see it, I see it
I swear I do
I see extraordinary magic in you

I Will Always Be Yours

length: 3:46
writer: Ben Rector, Jeff Pardo

Oh oh

I've been afraid
Been alone, been undone
I've been on fire
Flying high as the sun

In a world were things come and go
The only thing I've ever known is true (oh) is you

I've been the prince, I've been the pauper
Been the star and played the fool
Been the winner and the loser
In between them, too
But no matter who I might become
Or who I've been before
I will always be
I will always be yours

Oh oh (always be yours)
Oh oh

I'd run through flames
Push back fate, break down walls
I'd give my heart
Give my breath, give it all

In a world were things come and go
The only thing I can't afford to lose oh is you

I've been the prince, I've been the pauper
Been the star and played the fool
Been the winner and the loser
In between them, too
But no matter who I might become
Or who I've been before
I will always be
I will always be yours

Oh oh (I'm gonna be yours, yeah)
Oh oh (I will always be yours)
Oh oh
Oh oh

In a world were things come and go
The only thing I've ever known is true (oh) is you

I've been the prince, I've been the pauper
Been the star and played the fool
Been the winner and the loser
In between them, too
But no matter who I might become
Or who I've been before
I will always be
I will always be yours

Oh oh (I will always be yours)
Oh oh (I will always be yours)
Oh oh (Always be yours)
Oh oh (I will always be yours)

Drive

length: 3:17
writer: Ben Rector, Jeff Pardo

Three point two from the driveway of my house
To your apartment where I am waiting now
Come on, don't think, night's young
Let's go

NYC, Portland, Austin, Anaheim
Maybe not Anaheim, keep an open mind
I'm just sayin', baby
Let's go

I don't care
Anywhere

Like a river connects to the ocean
This pavement touches wherever we go, and
White lines flyin' by, who knows what we'll find
You and me tonight
Drive
Let's drive

When's the last time we dropped our things and went?
Woke up somewhere that we've both never been?
Growin' up doesn't mean gettin' older

Maybe it's just left turns off familiar streets
I just wanna come back with a memory
Growin' up doesn't mean gettin' older

I don't care
Anywhere

Like a river connects to the ocean
This pavement touches wherever we go, and
White lines flyin' by, who knows what we'll find
You and me tonight
Let's drive
Let's drive

Remember when we were young and free?
Oh, the way it used to be
Tell me, can we go back?
Three point two from the driveway of my house
To your apartment where I am waiting now

Like a river connects to the ocean
This pavement touches wherever we go, and
White lines flyin' by, who knows what we'll find
You and me tonight
Drive
Like a river connects to the ocean
This pavement touches wherever we go, and
White lines flyin' by, who knows what we'll find
You and me tonight
Yeah, let's drive

Let's drive

Old Friends

length: 3:44
composer: Ben Rector
lyricist: Ben Rector

I can still find Wiley's house
Riding on my bike with eyes closed
I could name every girl that he took out
And from my memory, dial his house phone

Can you take me back when we were just kids
Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah, yeah)
'Cause no one knows you like they know you
And no one probably ever will
You can grow up, make new ones
But truth is there's nothing like old friends
'Cause you can't make old friends (mm, yeah)

I can still feel the windows down
Listening to Jimmy Eat World
Riding 3-wide on Blake's bench seat (yeah)
My God, it's been ten years now
I would have his back tomorrow
And he'd still fight anyone who tried to touch me

Can you take me back when we were just kids
Who weren't scared of getting older? (yeah, yeah)
'Cause no one knows you like they know you
And no one probably ever will
You can grow up, make new ones
But truth is there's nothing like old friends

'Cause you can't make old friends

And I've got some good friends now
But I've never seen their parents' back porch
I wouldn't change how things turned out
But there's no one in this time zone
Who knows what inline skates that I wore

Can you take me back when we were just kids
Who weren't scared of getting older?
'Cause no one knows you like they know you
And no one probably ever will
You can grow up, make new ones
But the truth is
That we grow up, then wish we could go back then
There's nothing like old friends
'Cause you can't make old friends

Duo

length: 3:22
writer: Ben Rector, David Hodges, Gabe Dixon

I used to be afraid of feeling little
I used never wanna play a second fiddle
But that all changed when I met you (when I met you)
You make me wanna Garfunkel
Like you be Jesse and I'll be the other Uncle
I don't need the spotlight
I just wanna see you shine

I could be Joey, you could be Chandler
You tell the jokes, and I will straight man you
Maybe that was not always the plan
But so what?

If you wanna love, I'll love you forever (uhh)
If you wanna run, let's run together
When you go high, I will go low
I'll harmonize while you solo
Yeah, you and I
We could be our own iconic duo

Woah, woah
Woah, wo-woah
Woah, woah, yeah

I am Lennon, you're McCartney (yeah)
'Cause I could never have imagined
All the ways you make my heart beat (bum bum)
They say love's all you need, well
Please, please let it be, yeah

You can Beyoncé, I can be Jay Z
Talent like Kanye, just not as crazy
If it were possible I'd have your baby, Baby

If you wanna love, I'll love you forever (uhh)
If you wanna run, let's run together (let's run together)
When you go high, I will go low (so low)
I'll harmonize while you solo
Yeah, you and I
We could be our own iconic duo

Woah, woah
Woah, wo-woah (iconic duo)
Woah, woah, yeah

The more I see
Well, the more I find
That I am better by your side
If you wanna love, I'll love you forever
And if you wanna run, oh let's run together

If you wanna love, I'll love you forever (uhh)
If you wanna run, let's run together (let's run together)
When you go high, I will go low
I'll harmonize when you solo (solo)
Yeah, you and I
We could be our own iconic duo

Woah, woah
Woah, wo-woah (oh, iconic duo)
Woah, woah, yeah
We could be our own iconic duo

Kids

length: 4:17
writer: Ben Rector, Marc Scibilia

I saw a photograph from ten years back
It's you and I, we're standin' in the rain
Somewhere outside Atlanta, and I think my twelve-seat van
Is right there out of frame

This was before I knew my way around Los Angeles
Before I ever cared about nice neighborhoods
We were drivin' through the night, sleepin' on hotel floors
And thinkin' that we had it good

We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever
We were kids back then
We were wild and free, takin' all the world together
We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be

Passed an old friend on my timeline who had lately been on my mind
We were close as blood
If we sat down for a drink I think we'd forget all the stupid reasons
We lost touch (we lost touch)
It was just because

We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever
We were kids back then, you and me
We were wild and free, takin' all the world together
We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be

All you got to do is blink your eyes and the years go by like that
They fly right past
I don't want to wait to realize everything that you and I
Already have

Five-thirty in the mornin', and we're awake again
You are holdin' baby Jane
I lean in to take a picture, when it hits me
In twenty years, I will look back and say

We were kids back then, thinkin' we would live forever
We were kids back then
We're so young and free, takin' all the world together
We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be

We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever
We were kids back then, you and me
We were wild and free, takin' all the world together
We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be
That's how we're always gonna be
Oh, that's how we're always gonna be

Green

length: 3:43
writer: Ben Rector, Joseph Patton, Josh Gabbard

We took a flight to the Pacific Northwest
I've had a longing to go there deep in my chest
Like a dream
Left Portland in the mornin' headed for the coast
Feels like middle of nowhere, windin' down this road
And then I see it
This can't be real

I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be
So green
It was so green

Take a lighthouse tour, we saw the octopus tree
Feels like some Wes Anderson movie scene
In the breeze
Made a bonfire on the beach, talked late into the night
We made love after bottles of cheap red wine
It was way too sweet (mmm, yeah)
You taste so sweet

I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be
So green
Yeah, it was so green

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

I've never seen a greener green than that
The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back
Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach
And I remember what it is to be
You and I rememberin' what it is to be
So green
It was so green

Sometimes

length: 3:23
writer: Ben Rector, Dan Wilson

Some stupid pictures, some vacation, someone I don't know
And ten expert opinions on some strangers post
And then I know, much to my surprise
From a face I haven't seen in a long, long time

To say you're fine over a couple pages
Between the lines, you were really sayin'

Sometimes
I just wonder what it would have been like
If you were with me
Don't worry your mind
I'm not cryin' at night
I just think o' you sometimes
Sometimes, yeah

He's walkin' his dog out on Venice Beach
Said he came to Los Angeles to chase some dream
In ninety-five, he said, "I left my girls behind
And the time for second chances, it's been gone for a long time"

I called her phone, and I rambled on again, but
After the tone, what I really meant was

Sometimes
I just wonder what it would have been like
If you were with me
Don't worry your mind
I'm not cryin' at night
I just think o' you sometimes
Oh-ooh

We say goodbye, as if we're goin' places
And you can try, but you can't keep your heart from sayin'

Sometimes
I just wonder what it would have been like
If you were with me
Don't worry your mind
I'm not cryin' at night
I just think o' you
I still think o' you
I just think o' you sometimes

Wherever You Are

length: 3:17
writer: Ben Rector, Jeff Pardo

Jenny saved and got her own apartment
It's a big ole' world, she's gonna find a way
He said, "Call me if you ever lost it"
And he cried as he watched her drive away

Wherever you go, know that you're never alone
You're forever in my heart
And the moments you need me, no distance could keep me
I will be wherever you are

You could be all the way across the ocean
It might just feel a million miles from me
It don't matter, baby, I'll come runnin' (oh)
I will do anything to make you see

Wherever you go, know that you're never alone
You're forever in my heart
And the moments you need me, no distance could keep me
I will be wherever you are

When you find pain, when you fall down, when you hit harder times
Just call my name, I'll always be right by your side

Wherever you go, know that you're never alone (never alone)
You're forever in my heart (forever in my heart)
And the moments you need me, no distance could keep me (could keep me)
I will be wherever you are (I'll be whever you are)

Wherever you go (wherever you go)
Know that you're never alone (you're never alone)
You're forever in my heart (oh, forever in my heart)
And the moments you need me (in the moments)
No distance could keep me (no distance could keep me)
I will be wherever you are (I'll be wherever you are)

Wherever you are
I'll be wherever you are (I'll be wherever you are)
I'll be wherever you, wherever you, wherever you are

Over and Over

length: 3:24
writer: Ben Rector, Jeff Pardo

Again, again
Again, again
Again, again

It's been a while since we felt the way we did
Back when we were dumb and younger
It's been a while since I looked into your eyes
And saw starlight, bold, bright colors, yeah

When I'm down (you lift me up)
When I'm dry (you fill my cup)
No one else (could have my love)
(My love)

I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over again, again
And after all that we've been through
There's no one else for me but you
I would choose you over and over again, again, yeah

Again, again

And you are the real thing
The novel before the film
All are nuance, every letter
And you do things to me, like they have never been done
A love like ours could last forever and ever

When I'm down (you lift me up)
When I'm dry (you fill my cup)
No one else (could have my love)
No one (My love)
(Yeah)

I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over again, again
And after all that we've been through
There's no one else for me but you
I would choose you over and over again, again, yeah

Again, again
Again, again
Again, again

When I'm down (you lift me up)
When I'm dry (you fill my cup)
No one else (could have my love)
No one (My love)
No one

I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over
I would choose you over and over again, again
And after all that we've been through
There's no one else for me but you
I would choose you over and over again, again, yeah

Again, again (you lift me up)
Again, again (you fill my cup)
I would choose you over and over again, again (Again, again) (my love)
Again, again (you lift me up)
Again, again (you fill my cup)
I would choose you over and over again, again (Again, again) (my love)

Boxes

length: 3:22
composer: Ben Rector
lyricist: Ben Rector

One, two, three

I found boxes of first CDs tryin' to get my office clean
Took ten years of folks givin' them to me 'til I sat down
And I saw hesitant poses and torn up jeans
In cover photos friends took for free
For the six minute songs, and all their life-long dreams the world turned down

They're just dreamin' up some life out on the road, oh
When all I dream about's the day that I'll be home
I'd long forgotten how it feels to chase a dream
Thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah

On through this Rolodex of railroad tracks and fresh-cut hair
I see Joy who won some Grammys and is now a millionaire
Looks different now than she does right there, but that's how it goes
As for the rest, I bet they're teachers or pastors now
Pictured in jackets girlfriends picked out
All their hometowns turned these up, all the labels turned them down, and never wrote (whoa)

They're just dreamin' up some life out on the road, oh
When all I dream about's the day that I'll be home
I guess I forgot the way it feels to chase a dream
Thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah

A thrift store jacket and ten less pounds
Lookin' like a fool in some big field with my bare feet on the ground
Bad song titles and worse drum sounds, I didn't know

That all my dreams had come true out here on the road
I never dreamed that I could call this life my own
Thought I'd forgotten how it feels to chase a dream
But thank God for how it feels to chase a dream
And thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah

Peace

length: 2:36
composer: Ben Rector
lyricist: Ben Rector

I used to want people to love me, so I learned how to sing
Then I thought I wanted money, so I could buy nice things
When I found it was as empty as could be
And now I'm staring at my face above a bathroom sink

Saying I want peace, it's where I am now
It's the only thing I haven't found, somehow
There are other places, there are a million pretty faces
But I want peace, it's where I am now

I used to worry about the future, but the future never came
Tried livin' in the past, but never did quite feel the same
I used to think that there was a place I would rather be
'Til I got there enough times to realize that you are only ever here

That's when I found peace with where I am now
It's the only place I'll ever be, I've found (yeah)
There are other places, filled with a million pretty faces
But I've found peace with where I am now

Through the ups and downs, I have figured out
You find peace where you make it
Scenery won't change it
And I wasted so much time, thinkin' I could ever find
Enough of anything
That would bring me peace

So I found peace with who I am now
It's the only me I'll ever be, I've found (yeah)
There are other places, there are a million other faces
But I found peace with who I am now

Love Like This

length: 3:34
writer: Ben Rector, Jeff Pardo

Never was an early riser, used to bein' up all-nighter
Never saw the mornin' light quite like I do now
Never said no to a party, never started savin' money
But everything is different since you've been around

It's the way you're smilin' at me, it's in the way you hold my hand
It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man
It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is
But I have never known a love like this

Never used to get excited to sit here in the silence
Holdin' on to somethin' the way I'm holdin' you
Didn't used to know how fast time walks and runs and flies by
I never thought I'd feel so deeply, but damn, I do

It's the way you're smilin' at me, it's in the way you hold my hand
It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man
It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is
But I have never known a love like this

It's funny how everything I dreamed about
Starts to seem so empty without you

It's the way you're smilin' at me, it's in the way you hold my hand
It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man
It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is
But I have never known a love like this
I have never known a love like this
