We're letting you decide what the album is worth. You can download the entire album in CD quality for free (honest) or shoot us some dough if you're so inclined.
More than anything, we want the music to be out there. Thanks for listening. -- Michael, Raymond and Matt.
Jaime's gone away
Left here yesterday
Saw him take his old car
Into the silent winter, under the moon and stars
It was just a week ago
I saw him lift his chin and take another blow
And he swore he wasn't hurt
Though I loved him like a brother
I took him at his word
Jaime, I'm sorry for this
Jaime, I'm sorry
Have you moved on?
Is there nothing left to say but
Jaime, I'm sorry for this?
Jaime, I'm sorry
I'm here at the window waiting for you
To come back my way
I keep my ear to the ground
I carry your picture with me as I search from town to town
Even if I couldn't show you right
I care and I'm praying for your safety every night
Jaime, I'm sorry for this
Jaime, I'm sorry
Have you moved on?
Is there nothing left to say but
Jaime, I'm sorry for this?
Jaime, I'm sorry
I'm here at the window waiting for you
Waiting, waiting, waiting for you
Jaime, I'm sorry for this
Jaime, I'm sorry for this
I'll try to do better next time, and always
Jaime's gone away
