Love with Love

Well is that cloud painted on the sky?

Or is it simply where the canvas is blank?

I realize as I stand at the banks

Of the river at the feet of the city

Where I can see the bigger picture

And it triggers something deep within me

Philly

That would be the backdrop

Home to a million little cafes

With lattes and laptops

And that's when I noticed it

People only seem to leave their homes

To float in daydreams and postpone the loneliness

But sunshine don't mean sunburn

And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it

I met a girl at the Jersey Shore

That wore clip on earrings and stumbled in high heels

And no I wasn't sober when she tapped me on the shoulder

But I told her that I thought her smile wasn't quite real

And it must have been the drinks

Cause I ain't that smooth

Well it could have been the ink

She had a few tattoos

But dude it's hard to find a woman at a cover band bar

That prefers a conversation to another man's car

On the real

And maybe all she wanted was a cigarette

Or may she was just a shadow in my drunk dream

She gave a name and a number that wasn't hers

Said we all got a shadow moonlighting as a sunbeam

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

They tell me sleep is the cousin of death

So I would guess that a dream is the daughter of sleep

Sometimes I wonder whether Witness even exists

Or if it's just a dream that was caught in the beat

They're like kid, you got it going on

Tell me that my flow is strong

Now I'm in the basement til the break of dawn

Making songs

Seeking validation from the Hip Hop heads

Like the praise and adulation is the only thing I got left

But on the surface the water appears still

Unaffected by the children skipping stones on it's skin

Sometimes I bet it wishes it could just disappear

Like a feather in the city being blown by the wind

But sunshine don't mean sunburn

And a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta live like you never knew the definition of it

And sunshine don't mean sunburn

But a stone is only a stone if you're gonna leave them unturned

Some learn just a little quicker than others

You've gotta love like you never knew the definition of it

We all wanna disappear sometimes

We all wanna disappear sometimes

We all wanna disappear sometimes

But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines

We all wanna disappear sometimes

We all wanna disappear sometimes

We all wanna disappear sometimes

But we wake up every morning just in case that sun shines
