SWEET LOVE
(Emma Joy Hanley)
VERSE 1
Don't want to write about you
Cause nothing will sound as good as I want it to
But if this is what I've got, then I'll give it
Baby you're deserving of my hours and minutes
I'll write you a record and I'll let you spin it
Bending the pitch with your playful twisting
PRE-CHORUS
You're the best in the studio
Let's put it down with the track on loop
Yeah, with the track on loop
CHORUS
Sweet love, I'm gonna ruffle your hair
Sweet love, we're tangled up again
Together we're electric, authentic
A little bit eccentric
But unconditionally, love
You're my favorite person
VERSE 2
It's not about your confidence or your looks
Cause these are easily deceptive in my books
It's the way you smile when you see me
The way you snuggle down with me in the evening
The way you bring me chocolate ice-cream
Though it's sad but true
CHORUS
Sweet love, I'm gonna ruffle your hair
Sweet love, we're tangled up again
Together we're electric, authentic
A little bit eccentric
But unconditionally, love
You're my favorite person
BRIDGE
You've got something that I love
(Let's put it down with the track on loop)
You've got something that I love
(Let's put it down with the track on loop)
You've got something that I love
(Let's put it down with the track on loop)
You've got something that I love
(Let's put it down with the track on loop)
CHORUS
Sweet love, I'm gonna ruffle your hair
Sweet love, we're tangled up again
Together we're electric, authentic
A little bit eccentric
But unconditionally, love
You're my favorite person

BAND-AID
(EMMA JOY HANLEY)
VERSE 1
Don't just call me when she's gone
If that's how you're gonna be
Then I'd rather be alone
Nobody wants to feel like a backup plan
I've got my pride
And it's wrapped up in gold
VERSE 2
I should memorize a step-by-step scenario
To leave on my voicemail
Just for your number
I, I've gotta follow through
With the sense in my heart
And you return to the fate of your scars
CHORUS
No, this body is not your band-aid
I believe you can find those at the store
They can twist and bend to your heart's content
But my body is not your band-aid
VERSE 3
I used to beam and blush like a school girl
Whenever you'd embellish the sound of my name
I'd prize our photograph like the paparazzi
And wish on a star
I could be your best date
CHORUS
But now this body is not your band-aid
I believe you can find those at the store
They can twist and bend to your heart's content
But my body is not your band-aid
BRIDGE
No more bandages
I steadied my knees
She leaves in a hurry
The way snow melts in the Spring
Your casuality I'm not burning to see
CHORUS
No, this body is not your band-aid
I believe you can find those at the store
They can twist and bend to your heart's content
But my body is not your band-aid
No, my body is not your band-aid
No, my body is not your band-aid

MELODIES
(Emma Joy Hanley)
VERSE 1
Watched the landing from the window seat
A million grids of lights beneath
You were sleeping while I crossed the night sky
Wonder if you were dreaming of me
PRE-CHORUS
No it's not easy leaving
Missing your seasons
We'll have to kiss another day
CHORUS
Don't forget me, baby
Time is made for making memories
Hold me in the space that no-one sees
In melodies, melodies
VERSE 2
I am singing in the rain
I persist, I don't escape
With the multitudes scrambling for the shade
Here is my place
Here is my place
PRE-CHORUS
Still it's not easy leaving
Missing your seasons
We'll have to kiss another day
CHORUS
Don't forget me, baby
Time is made for making memories
Hold me in the space that no-one sees
In melodies, melodies
BRIDGE
I wish upon a star
That soon we won't be far
I wish upon a star
That soon we won't be far
CHORUS
Don't forget me, baby
Time is made for making memories
Hold me in the space that no-one sees
In melodies, melodies
In melodies, melodies
