lyrics

Rocketship – By Patrick Spencer

Why don’t you grab your green guitar and sit down here with me
While the sun is proud and this rocketship is free
And sing to me like the wind between the trees
Just stay a little longer here with me

I’m so sneaky but there’s no need to disguise,
If I held you would it take you by surprise,
Maybe I could make you laugh to see that smile ignite your eyes
Just stay a little longer here with me

I know you don’t want me to shout it, though its true
I can’t hesitate, tomorrow will not do
Cause I can’t find myself alone, for 5 minutes
Without thinking of you
Without thinking of you

You make me nervous, yes and you make me sweat
And I’m dying to tell you something that I haven’t told you yet
Maybe I can live without you but I can’t live with regret
So stay a little longer here with me.

I know you don’t want me to shout it, though its true
I can’t hesitate, tomorrow will not do
Cause I can’t find myself alone, for 5 minutes
Without thinking of you
I can’t find myself alone
I can’t find myself alone
I can’t find myself alone for 5 minutes, without thinking of you.

Their style reaches across Folk, Americana, Rock, and Country; like Don McLean sitting in with the Lumineers. Coldwater Road is a five-piece folk/rock group with rich harmonies and driving rhythm. ... more
