Anyone & You 02:07
Oh my dear you really got me good This isn't something that comes easily I needed something more I know that I can't I'm all out of love for you I'm not alone I'm just without you in my eyes I could have been anyone to you and I'd be fine 'cause what you said made me feel like I'd lost my mind I could have been anyone To You

Island Eyes 02:57
I will come softly in the morning as not to wake you and if I dig my own grave You're all I want in death You're who I want to know when I'm swept by a smile waters rush on our island we get taken by the tide $and dollar$ in our eye$ and if I spoke You wouldn't hear me even if I spoke clearly so I'm justs one more passing glance O God! the cost of romance
3.
Things that everyone had said have all run dry now I'll try to think happy things about you now Time spent in the sand holding each others hands time to breathe was all that i needed till I was breathing you waves churned time turned oh how your kiss it burns me
4.
Cry in my room I'll do the same as you wanted me, too Things haven't changed not one bit this is something I tend to forget I went swimming in my ocean and I landed in Your garden and I tried to find some seed to sow but baby, I need you home And I don't want to look uncool but these dreams they remind me of you And I don't want to be like that but these things they just bring me back And I don't want to be uncool but these dreams they remind me of you I don't want to be like that I just want my baby back What a sight for tired eyes shining smile and killer thighs baby, you are my burning paper flower see you in about ten hours
5.
Candles 04:17
I'll blow out your candles when you fall asleep just as you did for me and when I say goodnight I hope your mind's at ease You shaped me by his hand and flowers bloom where you'd stand and they'll grow by the glow of your golden locks The reason that you aren't here is still unclear to me again our candle burns so dim And at times of disarray you gave me poems to say so I'll sing just to ease the sting of time just to ease my mind
6.
Church Song 03:13
I left my home to fall out to sea I left my whole life to fall asleep long days, cold nights i got beaten down on a Monday dragged out on a Tuesday Wednesday I'm free I saw the ghost of your dream following me Stick to the promise girl that you made me Back down on a Thursday on my back on a Friday Saturday I'm dying down on my knees and I go to Church on the Sunday and I pray to God pray to God Don't you pray? Don't you? Don't you lie to me Be my woman, gal I'm your man I'd be down without this pulse in my hand be my woman, gal I'm your man
7.
Petal-picking game love me love me we all can't get enough plug me into your seeping knowing fill me up with distrust you're a tool for the foreign lovers that I've known from the past soldiers in formation to stop the information from getting into our hands well, I'm a flower, you're the Sun I'm a martyr, you're a god to everyone World economy's been collapsing everyones doing the dance molotov cocktails flaming, breaking all over everything while some can't break glance from computer romance O God! I may be stupid but Man, you are dumb Information Superhighway Mom Picture yourself sending mayday through wire "World: help if you're watching, our leaders have lied!"
8.
I loved everyone but I lost my old true friend we lost everything had to build it back again But they don't know of our plans to grow up old together and if they can't change me they'll find somebody else 'cause they can't predict the weather You and I being wed by the sea The ocean and your eyes wide open the salty air your snarling hair your emerald stare well, I can't fall away from it I can't believe what she's done to me but I don't care 'cause it don't matter I know I know better, now I'm no better I loved everyone but I lost my old true friend that's just how it's gotta be gotta lose something in the end gotta build it back again!

about

In parking lots, dorm rooms, basements, and bedrooms, James Ryan wrote the skeleton for what would become Olde Sake's debut album, The Ocean And Your Eyes Wide Open.
This album was, in his own words, "Loved, Pushed Aside, Resumed, Abandoned, and finally brought to Life, and not without the help of my friends."
The album features a wide array of acoustic instrumentation blended with electronic elements that swell and sway between songs. Percussion was soon added by Kevin Otto (The Mayor), as well as Matthew Gaffney (Porches, Rumors), and the project was finally brought to fruition in March of 2012.
