FAMILY OF THE YEAR LYRICS
album: "Family Of The Year" (2015)
Make You Mine
[Chorus:]
All the boys and all the pretty girls
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
And all the fun to shine on everyone
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
It gets dark, you watch them fall
Then it gets light, then it gets louder
Watch them bloom, watch them blossom, they grow higher
Not here forever, but for now, let's do whatever
And then never even find something that's close to being better
Then you fall into its arms, you got bare feet out in the barn
And you know that whatever, there will never be no harm
[Chorus:]
All the boys and all the pretty girls
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
And all the fun to shine on everyone
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
So much sand stuck inside my shoe
We watch a thunderstorm, kill an afternoon
We feel no pain, go swimming in the rain
Two hearts that were apart are now the same
So won't you tell me if you wanna be my baby?
Yes, for sure, and not a maybe
We won't try, come along, no need to cry
Then the sun comes back around, I'm back in time, you just got found just now
It's just that good, cause we could and we were always down
[Chorus:]
All the boys and all the pretty girls
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
And all the fun to shine on everyone
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
If I can't have you, you don't wanna know what I'm gonna do
If I can't have you, you don't wanna know what I'm gonna do
I'll never find another one
So if I can't have you, think of what you'll be putting me through
[Chorus:]
All the boys and all the pretty girls
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
And all the fun to shine on everyone
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine
So won't you tell me if you wanna be my baby?
Yes, for sure, and not a maybe
We won't try, come along, no need to cry
Then the sun comes back around, I'm back in time, you just got found just now
It's just that good, cause we could and we were always down
Summertime, I'm gonna make you mine

Facepaint
Feathers and facepaint is all that she wears
All cross her eyelids and tied to her hair
First one to know it the first one to care
First one to know that we're coming together here
Sun and the moon and the stars all she knows
Front row at parties and wasted at shows
Girl shot her hung over eyes to your soul
Braided your heartstrings you'll never let her go
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet
She got so high that she'll never get down
Never get down never get down
Se got so high that she'll never get down
Never get down never get down
Feathers and facepaint is all that she wears
All cross her eyelids and tied to her hair
First one to know it the first one to care
First one to know that we're coming together here
She got so high that she'll never come get down
Never get down never get down
She got so high that she'll never get down
Never get down never get down
I want to be a part of what's unsaid
Have me while I'm here she said
Different animals same cage
Have me while I'm here she said
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet
She got so high that she'll never get down
Never get down never get down
She got so high that she'll never get down
Never get down never get down
Feathers and facepaint is all that she wears
All cross her eyelids and tied to her hair
First one to know it the first one to care
First one to know that we're coming together here
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet
Up on the mountain down on the street
Watch as the animals gather at her feet

Carry Me
When you know it's not okay
and you know you're not to blame
Look inside your mind and try to find
this heart of mine
And you know it's just a dream
one you wished you'd never seen
Open up your eyes, it's still dark outside
Alone again tonight
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
And you try but it's too much
And hurting yourself is not enough
Think of everyone who has it worse than you
There is no curse on you
Think of everyone who has it worse than you
There is no curse on you
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
Won't you realize it's not that bad
And a chance to love is all you ever have
Tell him about your dream and what you saw in him
It's just a myth and no-one gives a shit
Tell him about your dream and what you saw in him
It's just a myth and no-one gives a shit
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me
You got the smile I wanna see
You got the heart to carry me

We Need Love
All of the times they made you sad,
All the times they made you feel bad,
All the times they made you feel like
they didn't have time for you,
All of the times they made you mad,
All the time you'll never get back,
All the times you sat and thought
that I'd never do this to you
Well you'd be right for letting it all go tonight,
But there's something better in between leaving and wanting to fight
We need love,
Even when you say we're not good enough
We're good enough
Say it's so,
All we need to do is be strong enough
To take your love,
And make it grow
All the times they shut you down,
Twisted your words around,
All the times they made you feel
like "What am I gunna do?"
All the times they made you mad,
All that time you'll never get back,
All the times you sat and thought
that I'd never do this to you
Well you'd be right for letting it all go tonight,
But there's something better in between leaving and wanting to fight
We need love,
Even when you say we're not good enough
We're good enough
Say it's so,
All we need to do is be strong enough
To take your love,
And make it grow
But it's a long hard road,
When you act so cold,
Maybe you can but you don't let it show
But it's a long hard road,
When you act so cold,
I can't save your soul
If you can't you gotta let it show
We need love,
Even when you say we're not good enough
Oh, we're good enough
Say it's so,
All we need to do is be strong enough
To take your love,
And make it grow

May I Miss You
May I miss you
May I sing a song in your name
For I leave this morning
Never to come back this way
Think of me when your head sleeps on your pillow
For our guns will well be drawn in the sunset fire at fall
May I think of you
Will you help me through
May I miss you
Cast off your doubts till they march you away with me
Four long winters since my bed is in company
Think of me being active, lost and lonely
For I've been through this before
And I've lost my heart and more
I won't do it again
I can't lose another friend
May I miss you
I've lived my life in the sun
I've lived my life so hard
I lived my life and I'll die
'cause everything dies
But it don't seem right
May I miss you
(May I miss you)
May I sing a song in your name
(Tell me so I know)
For I leave this morning
(Leave this morning)
Never to come back this way
(Now I'll never go)
Think of me being active, lost and lonely
(Won't you tell me so I know)
For I've been through this before
(Been through this before)
and I've lost my heart and more
(Lost my heart and more)
I won't do it again
I can't lose another friend
May I miss you
I've lived my life in the sun
I've lived my life so hard
I lived my life and I'll die
'cause everything dies
But it don't seem right
Before the week I'll try
To leave something to remember me by
It's so much better when it, it lasts forever
Easy to say goodbye
I've lived my life in the sun
I've lived my life so hard
I lived my life and I'll die
'cause everything dies
I've lived my life in the sun
I've lived my life so hard
I lived my life and I'll die
'cause everything dies
But it don't seem right

Blue Jean Girl
She was born in the back of a pick up truck
Hairspray queen with a ton of bad luck
In that town we were stuck
We grew up then we grew apart
I guess I had to break her heart
We held each other in the dark
Blue jean girl
Blue jean girl
Gold chained girl
Grey sky girl
Step away from that airplane
It'll only drag you away
We don't want you to be gone
If it's time to get a move on
You know you got to be brave
Keep your heart safe
Sorry if I made you cry
Sorry that I lied and I'm sorry that I didn't try
To be good and strong
So you could hold on
Blue jean girl
Blue jean girl
Gone now girl
It's your world
Your alright your just driving around
Some other dudes town
We don't want you to be gone
If it's time for you to move on
You know you go to be brave
And keep your heart safe
Sorry if I made you cry
Sorry that I lied and I'm sorry that I didn't try
To be good and strong
So you could hold on
She was born in the back of the pickup truck
Hairspray queen with a ton of bad luck.
In that town we were stuck
We grew up then we grew apart
I guess I had to break her heart
Say goodbye in the dark
We don't want you to be gone
But if it's time for you to move on
You know you got to be brave
And keep your heart safe
Sorry if I made you cry
Sorry that I lied and I'm sorry that I didn't try
To be good and strong
So you could hold on
We don't want you to be gone
But if it's time for you to move on
You know you got to be brave
And keep your heart safe
Sorry if I made you cry
Sorry that I lied and I'm sorry that I didn't try
To be good and strong
So you could hold on

Dead Poets
You got expelled for smoking pot
near the music room
You used to play your drum so loud
You're painting house now
You're keeping items in like a cage
with a blanket of snow you got a couple DUIs
Now you're hitch hiking under grey skies
Ooooohhh oo ooooh
oooo oooooh
Mom says, dad says,
"Can't you be more like your bother?"
You're mind grows darker
You run run run run run away
back into the woods
You've got your snacks you've got you're tent
And your sleeping bag
You use your compass to find out
Where you're sleeping out
The stream is rushing by your toes
Fishing for trout catching minnows
Ooooohhh oo ooooh
oooo oooooh
Mom says, Dad says
"Can't you be more like your brother?"
You're mind grows darker
You run run run run you run away
back into the woods
You don't need them anyway
Mom says, Dad says
"Can't you be more like your brother?"
You're mind grows darker
You run run run run you run away
back into the woods

The Dance
Trying to look like I'm having a good time
Maybe I'll take up a piece of your mind
Your wondering eyes stray side to side
Hoping its me they'll find
Your heart, your heart
Can I be a part of yours
Oh how I wish you would ask me to dance
Hold me so slowly with both of your hands
Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
Make me a part of your world
I'll have a hard time letting you in
Where did you come from, where have you been
Last time your a portion silver light on your skin
Now my heads starting to spin
Your heart, your heart
Can I be a part of yours
Oh how I wish you would ask me to dance
Hold me so slowly with both of your hands
Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
Make me a part of your world
Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
Make me a part of your world
Oh how I wish you would ask me to dance
Hold me so slowly with both of your hands
Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
Make me a part of your world
Oh how I wish you would ask me to dance
Hold me so slowly with both of your hands
Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
Make me a part of your world

Hey Kid
Hey kid, whats the deal?
Everybody's worried about you
You don't call, you're dropping the ball
And everybody's worried about you
Stay out late, you never sleep
Wonderin' what drugs you're on
You look sad, you look tired
Where's all your money gone?
Hey kid, whats the deal?
Everybody's worried about you
You don't call, you're dropping the ball
And everybody's worried about you
Hey kid (Hey kid)
What's the deal (What's the deal)
Everybody's worried about you (About you)
You keep lying,
Well keep trying
Cause everybody's worried about you
I can relate, I didn't know my fate
And I know it sucks she's gone
I know the pain will never go away
You can't turn it off and on
Hey kid, whats the deal?
Everybody's worried about you
You don't call, you're dropping the ball
And everybody's worried about you
Stay out late, you never sleep
Wonderin' what drugs you're on
You look sad, you look tired
Where's all your money gone?
Hey kid, whats the deal?
Everybody's worried about you
You don't call, you're dropping the ball
And everybody's worried about you
