Album: You and I
Lyrics
Thank you for taking the time to listen to my music and read my lyrics. Many of the songs on this album are deeply personal. As someone who has struggled with mental health most of my life, I have always found writing songs to be incredibly cathartic and therapeutic. I hope that you find my music healing and in some way it connects to your journey in life.

One More Time ( I Wish I Could)
I wish I could see your face,
Are you somewhere out there,
Still making your escape?
Take me back,
To that starry cold night,
Blowing angel rings into the air,
And floating into the sky . . .
​
One more time,
Let me look into your eyes,
Let me kiss your tender lips,
Pull you closer, my hands on your hips.
One more time,
One more time.
​
I wish I could say your name,
Did I carve it on a tree back there,
In that same old place?
Take me back,
To that place in the woods,
Silent and peaceful,
Under a pink moon . . .
​
One more time,
Let me look into your eyes,
Let me kiss your tender lips,
Pull you closer, my hands on your hips.
One more time,
One more time.
​
After all this time,
You know my love for you remains blind,
I close my eyes,
And there you are.
​
One more time,
Let me look into your eyes,
Let me kiss your tender lips,
Pull you closer, my hands on your hips.
One more time,
One more time,
Let me look into your eyes,
One more time
One more time,
One more time.

Just Drive
I'm gonna drive, drive, drive to the end of the road,
Turbo engine intake, hit the pedal and go,
I'm doing one-twenty-two down the avenue,
Leaving life behind in the rear view.
​
I'm gonna rev, rev, rev my rocket ship,
Twin turbo boosters, pop the clutch, and let her rip,
Through the Milky Way,
To a distant galaxy,
Beyond the stars . . .
​
In my mind, I can always just drive,
In my mind I can always just drive,
Just drive, I'll just drive . . .
​
I'm gonna pimp, pimp, pimp, gonna pimp my ride,
Low ride hydraulics on Supreme Fives,
I'm gonna take my time, cruise the neighborhood,
Drive the ladies, ya know I would.
​
While, while, while I hit the drive-in theater,
People turn their heads, they ain't seen nothing cleaner,
Than my Chevy Bel Air, oh it's such a tear,
Classic lines . . .
​
In my mind, I can always just drive,
In my mind I can always just drive,
Just drive, I'll just drive . . .
​
Music and Lyrics by Devin Falk
It's a Long Long Way Down the Line
Take a journey to the center of your mind,
Leave all those thoughts of regret behind,
The answers you seek, you may never find,
Follow your heart or remain blind.
It’s a long, long way down the line,
I’ve made my mistakes now I’m paying the price,
You can knock me down, but I won’t give up the fight,
Cuz it’s a long, long way down the line.
Take a journey to the end of time,
Close your eyes and what did you find?
Did your life go as planned, as you designed?
Or did you make a wrong turn by missing the sign?
It’s a long, long way down the line,
I’ve made my mistakes now I’m paying the price,
You can knock me down, but I won’t give up the fight,
Cuz it’s a long, long way down the line.

Music and Lyrics by Devin Falk
Along for the Ride
I must be crazy or losing my mind,
I must be crazy or losing my mind,
This world be taking me along for the ride.
I must be lonely, I’m ready to cry,
I must be lonely, I’m ready to cry,
If anyone asks what’s wrong,
I tell’ em I got something in my eye.
Was it something somebody said,
That suddenly touched a nerve?
Did they step on the back of my sandal
Or flip me the bird?
I must learn to caste my anger aside,
I must learn to caste my anger aside,
Confront the issue at hand when there’s Nowhere left to hide.
I must temper that fire inside,
I must temper that fire inside,
If I don’t, it will burn this whole place down alive.
​
Was it something somebody said,
That suddenly touched a nerve?
Did they step on the back of my sandal
Or flip me the bird?
I must be crazy or losing my mind,
I must be crazy or losing my mind,
This world be taking me along for the ride.
This world be taking me along for the ride.
