Little Lucky Gust She’s my little lucky gust Blows my hair back, turns me around. She’s my little lucky gust. Wets my eyes, she knocks me out. I didn’t count on, the girl that I adore. My little lucky gust blew me ashore. I ventured out to sea real young. Messing up was fun. To ride the wave of every day, See what there was to say, About getting mine before getting days get done. She’s my little lucky gust. I met my girl when I was raw. And I didn’t care what she saw, In me or my ways, Until I saw her gaze, Now I’m a civil man and love’s the law. She’s my little lucky gust.

Te Te Te Tell Me Te te te tell me. Te te te tell me. If you’d ever leave me. If you’d ever leave me. I need to know. I need to know. If you’re not gonna stay. If you’re not gonna stay. Don’t say you love me. Don’t say you love me. I need to know. I need to know. Won’t be your coward, scared of losing you at all hours. If you’d ever leave me. If you’d ever leave me. I need to know. I need to know. You know what love is, and you’re still vicious. I know what love is, and I’m still vicious. Te te te tell me. Te te te tell me. If you’d ever leave me. If you’d ever leave me. I need to know. I need to know.

Simple as Can Be She knew right away to sing along and shook him like the wind in summer trees. He thought that love would take so long, then he was one of two and felt so free. They kissed underneath the overpass, he know that he loved her and so did she. Simple as can be. Simple as can be. They danced underneath the street-lit sky, the whole wide world their lovely picture show. His face was buried in her hair, whispering he’d never let her go. He said “whatever turns you choose to take, know you’ve got a true love in me.” Simple as can be. Simple as can be. He said “Darling, don’t ever worry, don’t ever worry about our bread. Darling, don’t ever worry, don’t every worry.” He said “whatever turns you choose to take, know you’ve got a true love in me.” Simple as can be. Simple as can be.

Brand New Days French-kissing with morning breath, grapefruit and cigarettes Ooo ooo, there’s nothing we got to do. Play me the new song that you learned, pass it over and I’ll take a turn. Ooh ooh, there’s no place we got to go. We quit our jobs, and the money’s gone, and we’re starting over. To make it better. Brand new days. We’ll turn some fun into a living, get our way instead of give in Ooo ooo, there’s nothing we got to do Sing out the window and I’ll hit record, we’ll build a ship we can climb aboard Ooh ooh, there’s no place we got to go. We’re in love, and we’re still young, and we’re starting over. To make it better. Brand new days.

Not Enough to Leave Tell me how it gets better. These sort of things take time. That I should write an emotion. Make it rhyme. Just make it rhyme. I can’t hide my sinking. From your empathy. And I love you so much. Just not enough to leave. Not enough to leave. There’s nothing better for a man like me. There’s nothing better. There’s nothing better. No love will ever replace my. Illicit remedies. I love you so much. Just not enough to leave. Not enough to leave.
