On a Sunday 03:16
lyrics
Looking out the window Postman’s delivering cards All down the boulevard And there I see her standing She ties a leash around her dog Oh my is it that time? I see her walking closer And I know she likes my jam She’s my biggest fan And at the show I see her She’s standing by the bar She’s paying for all her friends And as I’m singing to her I see what’s on her shirt She’s wearing my band’s tee Man, I think she loves me I see her checking for her mail On a Sunday

Crying Rain 03:02
lyrics
Freak by day We freak all night Wanna try new things Don’t ask me twice Got you bending over backwards Trying all these acrobatics I forgot tell to you how you changed my life The way you ride on me The way you hold on me The way you switch on me You got your hips on me Been struggling everyday With the thought of you gone You’ve got me singing all of these songs Please don’t forget I loved you best Gotta say what I feel Get these thoughts off my chest You’re thinking ‘bout what went wrong I’m thinking ‘bout all the rest Flyin’ down the southbound Ride the wind, can’t touch the ground I reached the sun now I’m crashing down Sometimes I feel like crying I miss the love that you supplied me I look around and I just can't find it And I'm still crying Crying rain

Don't Let Me Go 03:54
lyrics
Don’t let me go I don’t know where I’m supposed to be And if you go Please leave me a map and a set of keys ‘Cause I sent you off a while ago And i know you're not imposible But I forgot to tell you what you mean to me Don’t let me go Please tell me what you want from me ‘Cause if you go I don't know what will become of me ‘Cause I sent you off a while ago And I know you're not impossible But I forgot to tell you what you mean to me Don't let me go I need you most You're my darkness Turned to dawn And if that light It ever dies Lose my sight I’ll lose my mind

It Is What It Is 05:30
lyrics
Sit tight All night It won't make it any better Ignite But you lose sight And it won't make it any better Won't make it any better..... A hundred times I tried to talk you off the edge The storms you're crying always start inside your head That voice is lying to you, breaking your heart When you gonna give love a start? Sit tight All night It won't make it any better Ignite But you lose sight And it won't make it any better Won't make it any better..... So what's it gonna take to get you alone? Oh I've been trying but it's taken too long So what's it gonna take to get you alone? Oh I've been calling all night long... So when you gonna let me in? I'm just outside your door Oh so when you gonna let me in? I just can't wait no more I just can't wait no more I'm trying to bring you back to life Show you what's outside......

Magnolia? (Angel's Song) 03:26
lyrics
Do you hear me now my dear, Magnolia? I felt you near, but no one appeared Are you still there? 'Cause I feel no one cares for me, Magnolia Don't you let your love float away I know so many people who put love to waste They're always 'bout tomorrow, don't think for today Go and find your love, before your love fades away Go and find your love, 'cause your love saves your life It doesn't matter what just feel the desire If everything is moving than move with the change So go and find your love, before your love fades away Go and find it

These Clothes 03:56
lyrics
Homebound I’m racing My baby Shes waiting for me She calls Shes crying Drive faster I’m trying my dear And then I get home Shes sitting alone Dialing the numbers on her cell phone Why, why Why’re you not looking me in the eyes Is she mad Told her I was at work Is she buying By the time that i took Knows I’m lying But I’m trying I’ve been lost Been takin my time Hit the club On my ride with a girl of the night For the night Cop cars Lights flashing She answers They're talking ‘bout me Hold up What’s happening She leaving Running right past me Thinking back How am I home Was driving my car But now it’s gone Light, lights Flashing right before my eyes Did I die Did I not make it home tonight Did I die, did I die Did I die Did I not make it home tonight Crashed my Benz and I lost my life But my clothes never looked so bright Did I die Did I not make it home tonight Crashed my Benz but I looked so tight Did I die Did I not make it home tonight Crashed my Benz and I lost my life But my clothes never looked so bright These clothes They're shining

Poolside Blues 03:35
lyrics
I never knew you had a song It kept you just barely hanging on So I just watched you walk away Now I have to live with that choice always I never knew you had a song It kept you just barely hanging on So I just watched you walk away Now I have to live with that choice always Though you did no crime, No you had no time, Yea we're all in despair But who said the world was fair? Now I know at first I couldn't see It took me so long just to believe Goodbye my friend, you're gone too soon You're drowning in your poolside blues

True Love 06:03
lyrics
And I know that you wanted to be here But some things don't always go our way Just know that you'll always have a home here 'Cause the truest love it never goes away And someday.... I'll say hey there, how are you? I know it's been a while... Heard you're back in town now But if you need anything Oh anything, I'll be there Just reach out your hand Just reach out your hand And I know that you wanted to be here But some things don't always go our way Just know that you'll always have a home here 'Cause the truest love it never goes away And someday.... I'll say hey there, how are you? I know it's been a while... Heard you're back in town now But if you need anything Oh anything, I'll be there Just reach out your hand Just reach out your hand Just reach out your hand brother, help me understand Just reach out your hand father, help me understand Just reach out your hand mother, help me understand Just reach out your hand sister, help me understand Just reach out your hand lover Help me understand Know that you wanted to be here But some things don't always go our way.... But someday....someday...

You're My Girl 06:55
lyrics
And they say that it's darkest before dawn Well I've been waiting Waiting, waiting for the sunlight to come I've been waiting so long So once again I gotta look in the mirror Oh no..How could we have done so much wrong? Oh I thought our love was strong What worth are we? If all we do is disagree, not much it seems.... If you stay the night We could try and make it right (you're my girl) And I'm hoping just to keep it alive If the river stops moving Are we out of time? 'Cause my soul need soothing Before I lose my mind You're my girl What worth are we? If all we do is disagree, not much it seems.... Do you believe In what worth we are? After all we've come so far Are we not too scarred? If the river stops moving Are we out of time? 'Cause my soul need soothing Before I lose my mind You don't have to be alone Because what do they know About real love You're my girl

Wilkes Oswald Miami, Florida

4 dudes in Miami formed a band in 2009 called Wilkes Oswald. Influenced individually and collectively by acts such as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Tame Impala, Muse, Daft Punk, and Kanye West.

No two live shows by Wilkes Oswald have ever been the same; they get off on the art of spontaneous, improvised sequences in their live shows; sometimes completely improvising a new song on the spot. ... more
