Feather & a Leaf

If I had a pebble I'd throw it at your window
Oh, oh
If I knew a tune I'd play it on a banjo
Oh, oh
Oh I think I like you
Do you think you like me too
We could go together, you and me
Like a feather and a leaf
If I had a penny I'd put it in your pocket
Oh, oh
So you can hear me jingling when you go a-walkin'
Oh, oh
Oh I think I like you
Do you think you like me too
We could go together, you and me
Like a feather and a leaf
Lalalalalalala not gonna settle down
Lalalalalalala never gonna touch the ground
If I wrote a song then it would be about you
Oh, oh
I could be the singer and you could be the audience
Oh, oh
Oh I think I like you
Do you think you like me too
We could go together, you and me
Like a feather and a leaf
Like a feather and a leaf

Sweet On You
03:30

Ooh, look at me
Pining away again
Like I do
It must be you
Can't think of anything else
That makes me melt
Like an ice cube
And maybe it's just me, but I don't wanna fall without you
Don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall alone
And maybe we could be, you and me, you and me
I don't wanna go home
Cause you tickle my fancy
It's true, that's what you do
It may be silly, but I'm really
Sweet on you
Ooh, look at me
Pining away again
Like I do
It must be you
Can't think of anything else
That makes me melt
Like you do
And maybe it's just me, but I don't wanna fall without you
Don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall alone
And maybe we could be, you and me, you and me
I don't wanna go home
Cause you tickle my fancy
It's true, that's what you do
It may be silly, but I'm really
Sweet on you
I'm really sweet on you

Maybe Someday

Once upon a midnight spell
When summer rose and autumn fell
We were gonna sail off to the moon
But dreamers fall and lovers leave
And hearts are fragile, fickle things
That break us apart
If love is for fools
Then I am one too
Maybe someday you'll be my baby
Maybe someday you'll stay
Whenever blue skies turn to gray
I think maybe baby you'll be mine someday
And whenever the storms come a-blowin'
I'm thinkin' of you in my arms
And whenever blue skies turn to gray
I think maybe baby you'll be mine someday
Maybe someday you'll be my baby
Maybe someday you'll stay
Whenever blue skies turn to gray
I think maybe baby you'll be mine someday

I've Got a Weakness
02:39

You caught me in a spell, I fell for you
Like magic it was all that I could do
And now I'm hanging by a thread
Hanging on every word you said
Uh-oh you know and it's no secret
I've got a weakness
I know that everyone can see it
I've got a weakness for you
You caught me by surprise, you popped my balloon
It fell out of the sky and I did too
And now I'm hanging by a thread
Uh-oh you know and it's no secret
I've got a weakness
I know that everyone can see it
I've got a weakness for you
You stole my heart, I didn't give it to you
Didn't give it to you, no
You broke the door down and now you won't go
You don't leave do you, no
Uh-oh you know and it's no secret
I've got a weakness
I know that everyone can see it
I've got a weakness for you
You caught me in a spell, I fell for you
Like magic it was all that I could do
And now I'm hanging by a thread

I Never
04:17

What does it take to win
What does it take to lose
What does it take to pretend
What does it take to accuse
I never thought you'd take such offense
I never meant it
I never wanted any of this
I thought you knew me better
I never
I never saw it coming
Not from you
Dear friend
You pushed me down
I hit the ground running
Running
What does it take to begin
When what you have is broken
What does it take to forget
Something that's been burning on the inside
I never thought you'd take such offense
I never meant it
I never wanted any of this
I thought you knew me better
I never
I never saw it coming
Not from you
Dear friend
You pushed me down
I hit the ground running
Running
What does it take to win
What does it take to lose
What does it take to pretend
What does it take to accuse

Used to Think
03:47
|

|
You could go
It would be fine by me
Just knowing
It was never meant to be
It was over
Before the start
And our hearts
Were never meant to be tied
So if you wanna stay then stay
And if you wanna go then leave
We could be, you and me
We could be so happy
I used to think
That was what I used to think
This is all just a dream
This is not happening
I used to think
That was what I used to think
So you know
I gave it everything
I tried
But there wasn't any remedy
I would hope that we could both be free
Just knowing
We're siding with destiny
So if you wanna stay then stay
And if you wanna go then leave
We could be, you and me
We could be so happy
I used to think
That was what I used to think
This is all just a dream
This is not happening
I used to think
That was what I used to think
So if you wanna stay then stay
And if you wanna go then leave

Without You
03:43

What would I do without you
I don't ever wanna know
Baby I built my life around you
Please don't ever go
Didn't know I was lost til I found you
Baby I searched so long
Now that you're here I already know you
You were here all along
The way you hold me
The way we kiss
Can't replace a love like this
Can't live if you leave me here without you
Can't breathe, you're my oxygen
Can't sing, there's no song without you
Without you
You are my one and only
I never wanna lose
Just know if you ever need me
There's nothing I won't do
The way you hold me
The way we kiss
Can't replace a love like this
Can't live if you leave me here without you
Can't breathe, you're my oxygen
Can't sing, there's no song without you
Without you
Can't swim, I'd drown inside the ocean
Without the prince in my fairy tale
Can't stand, I'm not strong without you
Without you
Can't live, can't breathe, can't sing without you
Can't swim, I'd sink, can't stand without you
Can't live if you leave me here without you
Can't breathe, you're my oxygen
Can't sing, there's no song without you
Without you

Merry Ellen Kirk Nashville, Tennessee
A young explorer at heart, Merry Ellen Kirk challenges the stigma of the formulaic love song, daring her audience to consider the world in a new light. A tale of heartbreak, fragility, tension, resolution, deep longing & what-could've-beens, Feather & a Leaf continues the dreamy artistic tone that we loved so much in Firefly Garden, to a poignant lyrical exploration of the human capacity to love. ... more
