lyrics

I see you staring out at sunset
Something heavy on your mind
The look that's on your face familiar
Got these tears that you been crying
I know that I've been gone for so long
But you could never get left behind
Far from you but you're in my heart
You will be through all time

Find some trust
Was hoping you believed in us
You think you know it all
So I need you to believe in me

You don't know me well
If you think I would
Run away from this
And build my life
Around this world we have
Hope that time don't tell
That you don't know me well

Why don't you sit down for a second
Maybe we could talk this out
Have a moment and some patience
We don't need to scream and shout
Just some trust and understanding
And some cushion when we fall
As long as we can stick the landing
You know we could have it..all

Find some trust
Was hoping you believed in us
You think you know it all
So I need you to believe in me

'Cause
You don't know me well
If you think I would
Run away from this
And build my life
Around this world we have
Hope that time don't tell
That you don't know me well

Start every week with a kiss on a cheek
Head starts spinnin' and my knees get weak
Wait till you see the shape your in
After I take your lips for a spin

Start every week with a kiss on a cheek
Head starts spinning and my knees get weak
Wait till you see the shape your in
After I take your lips for a spin

'Cause
You don't know me well
If you think I would
Run away from this
And build my life
Around this world we have
Hope that time don't tell
That you don't know me well

about

Justin James San Diego, California

A professional windsurfer in his teen years, Justin was attacked by a tiger shark off the coast of South America when he was 20 years old, cutting major arteries, almost severing his foot, and leaving him with 250 stitches. This moment would prove to be a watershed in Justin's life when during a yearlong recovery his grandma gave him a guitar and his first song was born. ... more
