The Shondes Lyrics


All the Good Things I don't want any sympathy But the cities never sleep in…
Are You Ready We were out walking the city all night All closed up…

My Dear One Last night I almost flew to you My sixth-floor window with…
Ocean to Ocean Another time zone, we're a little lonely, but not alone Roll…


Searchlights I wonder if you're warm tonight And if you found something…
