“Eric and the Adams” lyrics for debut CD

Sugar, You Ain’t So Sweet
(words by Eric Himan; Music by Eric Himan and Jimmy Adams)

You said everything my greedy ears wanted to hear
it was as if I wished for you and then you appeared
you had me, hook line and catch
you even had my friends thinking it was gonna last

Then you vanished as quick as you came
disappearing like a teardrop in the rain
Now your running round like your immune
well I got news for anyone who gets with you..I said

Sugar you Ain’t So..Sugar, You Ain’t So, Sugar You Ain’t So Sweet

Just like Pinocchio wished for it all to be real
I wanna turn this wooden thing we got into steel
you left so fast, you forgot to share
don’t think the last I saw of you was the last time I cared
I’m coming back with a vengeance
you’d know if you had any intelligence
like milk sitting out for days
the more I know you the more sour you taste…I said

Sugar you Ain’t So..Sugar, You Ain’t So, Sugar You Ain’t So Sweet

Your putting your hands where they don’t belong
and don’t you think your coming on to strong? Yes you are

You’ve got to be kidding me, don’t make me pay
for what the last guy got for free….I said…

Sugar you Ain’t So..Sugar, You Ain’t So, Sugar You Ain’t So Sweet

Frozen In the Sun
(words and music by Eric Himan; Thumbcrown Records, ASCAP)

You say, your alright, its just my mistake
and I’m feeling that something has startled you awake,
no I’ve never seen you this way don’t know what to expect, now your turning to the doorway, I’m not all you have left…

If I let you leave, would you alright, would be smiling, or would you be crying, wiping the tears off saying your sorry, saying that you’ll be better tomorrow

I’ve stayed, I’ve stuck out, picked up after you,
I’ve fallen, I’ve messed up, I’ve listened to the truth,
but your running, your hiding, under some else’s arm,
and your frightened, feeling fragile, your not the only one…

Your frozen in the sun
If I let you leave, would you alright, would be smiling, or would you be crying, wiping the tears off saying your sorry, saying that you’ll be better tomorrow

The silence, it pulls you puts you right back in your place
leaves you shattered, leaves you broken, your dying to escape

I was eating reading the paper at that place you loved so much, when someone came up behind me, said I’m sorry for your loss
If I let you leave, would you alright, would be smiling, or would you be crying, wiping the tears off saying your sorry, saying that you’ll be better tomorrow

Your frozen in the sun

Hear You Breathe
(words and music by Angel Adams)

I still say goodnight to you
every night as my head hits my pillow
still feel the warmth of you
pull the covers over my head

I close my eyes, I can see you smiling at me
I tune the day down, so I can hear you..I hear you breathe

To say that I miss you
shallows your depth of impact
To say that I ache
muffles my soul’s cry

I close my eyes, I can see you smiling at me
I tune the day down, so I can hear you..I hear you breathe

Your a memory that fades not
a daydream come to life
and I understand that it’s all in my mind

I close my eyes, I can see you smiling at me
I tune the day down, so I can hear you..I hear you breathe

Every Move
(words and music by Eric Himan; Thumbcrown Records, ASCAP)

I’m drinking coffee 2am,
for you my door’s always open
pardon my straightforwardness, but I am sending out an SOS, I got fireworks for flares in both my hands

if you don’t want me, then no one else will do
and your just like a ghost in my ocean blue
when you go by know I feel every move

In my life, you steal every scene, my dirty thoughts can’t keep you clean, and my mind won’t do as its been told, it spins me round 3 times in a blindfold and every time it pushes me to you

if you don’t want me, then no one else will do
and your just like a ghost in my ocean blue
when you go by know I feel every move

I can’t keep you out, I can’t keep you now
if you don’t want me, then no one else will do
if you don’t want me, then no one else will do
and your just like a ghost in my ocean blue
when you go by know I feel every move
when you go by know I feel every move when you go by know I feel every move when you go by know I feel every move

Keeper of the Secret
(words and music by Eric Himan; Thumbcrown Records, ASCAP)

Didn’t we have ourselves a good time?
when you parked your body next to mine
between us, the thinnest of lines
red rover come on over to my side….

I know that look inside your eyes,
you turn away, but you can’t hide
there’s something brewing deep inside
that your holding back about to hit the sky…

I’ll be the keeper of your secret
I”ll hide you under lock and key
I’ll be the keeper of the secret
tell me, why wont you keep me?

today, your acting like we just met
its been days for me, but years in your head
Your edges showing at the seams
when I say, “I got you”, you know exactly I mean

I know that look inside your eyes,
you turn away, but you can’t hide
there’s something brewing deep inside
that your holding back about to hit the sky…

I’ll be the keeper of your secret
I”ll hide you under lock and key
