發現Joshua Radin的歌都短短的，但大都不錯聽耶!
這張專輯一看到Vegetable Car這個名字就覺得相當喜愛
於是乎就首先聽了這首，果真是不錯呀~~
再來就是I'd Rather Be With You這首啦!!

Brand New Day

Some kind of magic
Happens late at night
When the moon smiles down on me
And bathes me in it’s light

I fell asleep beneath you
In the tall blades of grass
When I woke the world was new
I never had to ask

It’s a brand new day
The sun is shinning
It’s a brand new day
For the first time
In such a long long time
I know
I’ll be ok

Most kind of stories
Save the best part for last
Most stories have a hero who finds
You make your past your past
Ya you make your past your past

It’s a brand new day
The sun is shinning
It’s a brand new day
For the first time
In such a long long time
I know
I’ll be ok

This cycle never ends
Gotta fall in order to mend

And it’s a brand new day
It’s a brand new day
For the first time
Inn such a long long time
I know
I’ll be ok

Free of Me

Something’s wrong from the hilltop
I know you can’t see
I look strong all together
Though inside I’m weak

Still I bleed
Still I wait to heal
A wound for my crime
What I need
Are more bandages
They’ve torn over time

You shelter from the rain
Turn around walk away
Go now and don’t look back
My life’s come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me

I couldn’t be who you wanted
Somewhere down the road
When I’m whole
When the rains are done
When I’ve reaped all I’ve sown
But here and now
On my hands and knees
I crawl through the mire
And your bead is so soft and warm
I’m weary and tired

You shelter from the rain
Turn around walk away
Go now and don’t look back
My life’s come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me

Leave me alone
I’ll find another home
I’m on my knees
Crying out please
Go now and don’t look back
My life’s come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me
Free of me

Friend Like You

I like the way you’re not afraid
You’ve got the world planned in your mind
People say you cannot do it
But they don’t know a friend like you

The girl you love has gone away
Still too young to know her heart
She’ll return her love renewed
Cause she’ll never find a friend like you

When I had no one to call
All the world had shut me down
I showed up at your door so blue
Thank God I had a friend like you

Any times I’ve gone without
A home, a meal, a pair of shoes
If you had three you’d give me two
There aint no other friend like you

I'd Rather Be With You

Sitting here, on this lonely dock
Watch the rain play on the ocean top
All the things I feel I need to say
I can't explain in any other way

I need to be bold
Need to jump in the cold water
Need to grow older with a girl like you
Finally see you are naturally
The one to make it so easy
When you show me the truth
Yeah, I'd rather be with you
Say you want the same thing too

Now here's the sun, come to dry the rain
Warm my shoulders and relieve my pain
You're the one thing that I'm missing here
With you beside me I no longer fear

I need to be bold
Need to jump in the cold water
Need to grow older with a girl like you
Finally see you are naturally
The one to make it so easy
When you show me the truth
Yeah, I'd rather be with you
Say you want the same thing too

I could have saved so much time for us
Had I seen the way to get to where I am today
You waited on me for so long
So now, listen to me say:

I need to be bold
Need to jump in the cold water
Need to grow older with a girl like you
Finally see you are naturally
The one to make it so easy
When you show me the truth
Yeah, I'd rather be with you
Say you want the same thing too
Say you feel the way I do

No Envy No Fear

some are reaching few are there,
wandering from a heros chair,
some are scared to fly so high,
well this is how we have to try

have no envy and no fear,
have no envy, no fear

brother brother we all see,
your hiding out so painfully,
see yourself come out to play,
a lovers rain will wash away

you envy and you fear,
so have no envy, no fear

when your sister turns to leave,
only when shes most in need,
take away the cause of pain,
by showing her were all the same.

have no envy and no fear,
have no envy and no fear

and every day we try to find,
we search our hearts and our minds,
the place we used to call our home,
cant be found when were alone
so have no envy, no fear,
have no envy and no fear

One of Those Days

Wait right here
Was all she said to me
And so right here I stay
Time has reached our home
And I've been left alone
It's carried him away

And everyone keeps saying
Nothing helps but time
Time is all I own
The timings stop replaying over in my mind
I watch the hours slow down

So I crawl underneath my blanket
Where I can hide away
I know I can't take it
‘Cause I see now
It's just one of those days

Now a year has passed
Alone I stay inside
And I await the rain
To wash away your face
So I don’t have to hide
The sight of you is painful

So I crawl underneath my blanket
Where I can hide away
I know I can’t take it anymore
‘Cause I see now
It's just one of those days

I can't stop
Seeing your face
I can't stop
Seeing your face
Everyplace

So I crawl underneath my blanket
Where I can hide away
I know I can't take it anymore
‘Cause I see now
It's just one of those days (yeah)

Sky

I woke dreaming we had broke
Dreaming you left me for someone new
And you cried, drying those brown eyes
Crying you're sorry - sorry won't do

But this is the way I need to wake
I wake to you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight

Last night, we had a great fight
I fell asleep in a horrible state
Then dreamt that you loved my best friend
My heart would not mend - seemed it was fate

But this is the way I need to wake
I wake to you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight

Sometimes I forget to love you like I should
But I'd never leave you - no, I never would
I never would

Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight
'Til we fall asleep tonight

They Bring Me To You

You looked like the sun
I was the only one
who could stare until you were done shining on me
and as we drank our wine and let the world fade away
the sunrise tried to end it while we tried to stay.

The rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you.

Moon pours through the ceiling tonight
embraces us tight
shows me we're right for each other
and as we lie here and let the world fade away
the sunrise tries to end it while we try to stay.

The rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you.

It's all about the first night and last,
some people say
well I love you so much more tonight,
more than yesterday.

The rest of my life can't compare to this night
and only the heartaches have given me sight,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you,
they bring me to you.

Vegetable Car

Baby, you don't even know me
But one day I'll get up the courage
as you pass by, you'll see

oh, baby
one look just might save me
I need you to slow by the corner
stop right in front of me

til' then, I'll see you hopefully through
i do wish that you'd asked me to ride along
it wouldn't be wrong to tell me more than I know about you

she drives a vegetable car
diesel Mercedes, green, two door
I barely know who you are.
Lisa Loeb glasses I'd sure like to ask you to stay

baby,I need you to save me
the one thing that my heart requires
is that you admire me

til then, I'll see you hopefully through
i do wish that you'd asked me to ride along
it wouldn't be wrong to tell me more than I know about you

she drives a vegetable car
diesel Mercedes, green, two door
I barely know who you are.
Lisa Loeb glasses I'd sure like to ask you to stay

how do i know why the sight of you makes me weak
each time i see you turn onto my street
your hair is always up in a bun
this girl's the one

she drives a vegetable car
diesel Mercedes, green, two door
I barely know who you are.
Lisa Loeb glasses I'd sure like to ask you to stay, don't go.

We Are Okay

We are grown
but cannot see
Lost our world of make believe
simple times now seem so far
used to be in my back yard
yeah the world was still in my back yard

but, we are ok, we are all right
we sing very loud,
yeah we're singing,
we are OK, we are alright
close our eyes
close our mouths
yeah, we shut our eyes
though we're in doubt.

build me a home from cardboard box
many windows never locked
this is how we used to play
shorter nights and longer days
with faith we would not fade away

but, we are ok, we are all right
we sing very loud,
yeah we're singing,
we are OK, we are alright
close our eyes
close our mouths
yeah, we shut our eyes
though we're in doubt.

and so it goes
we can never seem to find
the time we lost
though we try at any cost
we try...and we say...

but, we are ok, we are all right
we sing very loud,
yeah we're singing,
we are OK, we are alright
close our eyes
close our mouths
yeah, we shut our eyes
though we're in doubt.
