Waking up at 5 a.m. just to brush my teeth Back out on the highway again for a couple weeks Breakfast at the stations we pass along the road And all of this from that song I wrote But… I couldn’t handle living in a van Or sharing a room with my whole band Or never seeing my baby for awhile Always burning my eyes under big stage lights And singing the same song every night I’d rather drive a back seat in this bar Oh man, I’d be hopeless as a star Used to want my name lit up there in reds and blues See my face in new hotels on the evening news I tried to make it happen when I was seventeen But sometimes things are better off as dreams Cause... Chorus All of the screaming fans Holding up their hands As their favourite band Plays their song again I guess I could handle living in a van And sharing a room with my whole band And seeing my baby smiling from the stalls Always burning my eyes under big stage lights And singing the same song every night I never dreamed that I would get this far Oh man, it feels good to be a star ‘Thank you! Thank you very much! Woo! See you next time Have a safe drive home B-bye!’

Fall Into Me 03:05
I’ve been alone when it was just myself I’ve been alone when with somebody else I’ve been with friends but they don’t seem to help Now you’re the one who saves me from myself Won’t you just fall down into me Everything’s right now here with me Think about all the things that we could be If you just fall into me I may not be the first one on the moon I may not be a ten, more like a two I may not have the life that others do But maybe I’m the one to be with you Chorus I will never ask you to give in Only ever ask you to hold on to me Let me feel your rain upon my skin Chorus If you just fall into me If you just fall into me

Call Me In 03:31
When he walks out that gate And he never looks back Leaving his ties in their place And his best suit on the rack When he says that he’s done And he walks out that door Making you cry all alone By his dress shoes on the floor Just pull out your phone Lift it to your head… And call me in And tell me what’s up If you drop a line I’ll always pick up Just give me a time and a place When you need someone And I’ll be right there waiting When you feel alone Just give me a buzz And I’ll bring the wine We’ll kick up some dust Cause when it’s your heart on the line And you need to phone a friend You can call me in When there soon comes a day And they’re done growing up When they were five, they would play Now they’re shopping for a rug When they say their goodbyes And they give you a kiss You feel the tears in your eyes From the hugs and things you’ll miss Pre-Chorus Chorus When you win too much money from a scratch lottery And you think, ‘Who can spend that kinda money with me?’ Chorus
4.
Love… Love is on my mind It bleeds me from inside Then leaves me out to dry I think about it still The passion and the thrill Of climbing up that hill To something I can feel A place to call my own Days I find Like the rain I’m falling down Always falling down in love You… Take me in your arms And lead me with your charms You shelter me from harm But then it goes away And every word we say Turns us into play Like actors on a stage Then everything is gone Days I find Like the rain I’m falling down Always falling down in love But sometimes Me, I don’t mind Falling down Always falling down in love

I picked up a box of stuff from my parents’ house I found some blue jeans and some shirts I thought I threw out Under some family photos, you’ll never guess what I saw It was the very first clear jewel case that I ever bought So, on my way home I put some ‘Green Day’ on… My grandpa got vinyl, my mama got tape But I was born, bred and raised on these round silver plates You know, it’s funny how much has changed On the music scene We’ve heard ‘em sing about radios in their cars And then how video killed the radio star And when the whole world stopped How they blamed it on MTV This disc got me through my teens But they don’t sing about CDs As soon as I hit my driveway, I took ‘em out I dug out an old stereo, turned it up real loud And then one by one I watched all my favourite bands turn Even flicked through the books Just to sing along with every word When ‘The Killers’ were done, I put some ‘Nickelback’ on… Chorus You don’t have to flip them over to enjoy the ride Chorus ‘Man, I love that CD! Ha! What’s that? Journey?’
6.
Felt like midnight lost In the darkness all by myself I couldn’t see in front of me Then I saw your face Shooting sparks like nobody else Couldn’t believe what I could see No more wasting time Need to cross that line With you by my side It will be all right I can feel I’m on my way Yeah, there’s no more Holding on to my old ways Yeah, the ways that held me Now I see your face, you should know I’m never looking back I can feel that old heartache Running its way out my chest And making space Making space for something else I’m on my way, you should know I’m never looking back With you, I see light In the stars and wonder what else What there could be with you and me Pre-Chorus Chorus But if I lose you when It all comes caving in I’ll climb back up again To be there in the end Chorus
7.
I was alone by myself before you I didn’t know what on earth I could do Then I saw your face walk in And I heard your voice talking Never thought a person could take hold Then I felt a brand-new thing Then I felt it start growing Now no matter what happens I know… For you, I will be there Nobody else will do That’s why for you I’ll be your man No one compares to you This love was meant to be Emily Now everyday what we’ll do’s all I see We’ll run away straight to New York City Then I see your face walk in And I hear your voice talking Never knew a person could take hold Then we feel a brand-new thing Then we feel it start growing Now no matter what happens I know… Chorus

JAKE Turning away from you, baby Though I don’t want to wait for you It’s getting harder each day To love you at arm’s reach EMILY Wink and a wave, ain’t it funny All the games that we play for two It’s getting harder each day To love you at arm’s reach JAKE & EMILY As the nights grow long Our hearts grow strong For the beat of every breath you take COURTNEY Into the night, hold me, baby If the feeling is right for you It’s getting harder each day To love you at arm’s reach Instrumental COURTNEY & ZANE As the nights grow long Our hearts grow strong ALL For the beat of every breath you take ZANE Into the night, hold me, baby COURTNEY If the feeling is right for you EMILY It’s getting harder each day JAKE To love you at arm’s reach To love you at arm’s reach

Satellites 03:25
Remember those days You wanted me close You pulled me in tight And never let go But as the sun turns The memories fade It wasn’t our time We needed some space I’m in your atmosphere now Satellites above our head See what’s coming to an end What’s changed has changed What’s gone is gone We’re rearranged We’re moving on Satellites above our head Floating past just on the edge To feel your pain To hear you cry So, I will be your satellite I can’t be your world So, I’ll be your star To light up your night When everything’s dark I’m in your atmosphere now Chorus Even though you’re so far from me You’re the only one that I see So, I will be up overhead Until I feel your ground again I’m in your atmosphere… Chorus
10.
If you ask for more money You’ll get more money In the form of credit cards and bills If you ask for more alone time You’ll get more alone time Right along with loneliness in there too Just the man who asks for nothing Gets everything he wants If you ask for more freedom You’ll get more freedom Free from all the people that you need If you ask for more women You’ll get more women At your door who thought you were everything Just the man who asks for nothing Gets everything he wants But if you ask for more music You’ll get more music And that’s all right with me And if you ask for more sunshine You’ll get more sunshine And that sunshine asks for nothing in return If you ask for more good times You’ll get more good times But you’ll feel the bad times stronger still If you ask for more reasons You’ll get more reasons To be sad instead of living well Just the man who asks for nothing Gets everything he wants

Such A Fool 02:52
Every day I’m such a fool I wanna leave the world behind Any way I try to move It chews me up and leaves me blind But every time I close my eyes It opens up its mouth again Lets me in on all the reasons I’m alive And all I see is you All I see is you Every day I’m such a fool I wanna leave my life behind Fly a plane to Malibu And land it in the sands of time But even when I’m on line I see a flash of light again Lets me in on all the reasons I’m alive And all I see is you All I see is you Instrumental Every day I’m such a fool I almost left my dreams behind

about

After six years away from releasing music, I am so proud and excited to be back with my debut album, 'Falling Down In Love'!

'Falling Down In Love' is made up of songs written over the last four years but weren't intended to be part of a project.

It wasn't until my friend and the album's producer, Benedict Roff-Marsh picked these songs out of almost a hundred demos and noticed how they all sing about love from different angles. Then when we pulled all the songs together, they then created an image of someone who wrestles but at the same time relishes in the struggles of love.

The songs on the album talk about the love of music, the love of someone close to you, the love of someone far, the love of someone who comes back around when you least expect, the love of yourself and the love of life. All things that are a deep part of the human experience.

We chose the title 'Falling Down In Love' because it suggested that life is not just about giving into the happy moments, but giving into the sad moments as well, and finding joy in experiencing love and all that comes with it.

Thanks for listening and supporting my music!
