TRY TO FLY
Looking out the window wanting to fly
Don’t know where my wings are but I’m gonna find them
Soar way up and over all of the trees
You can wave goodbye to me
With my brand new wings
They’ll take me so far
Leaving small reminders of where I was
I will take some pictures along the way
Place them in a picture book
And I will try to fly
The sky is so wide open
I’m gonna try to fly
The sky is so wide open
blue and white
There’s a whole wide world that I need to find
I won’t leave a corner of it behind
Check out every mountain valley so low
Do you want to go
And we can try to fly
The sky is so wide open
Try to fly
The sky is so wide open
blue and white….
Take off
It’s another sunrise

Midst of it all

The midst of it all
Got a room full of things I really don’t need
And a heart full of cracks, I can’t stop from bleeding
A life full of memories I can’t recall
And there’s you in the midst of it all
Got a window with views stretching out far
And a soul that’s been carried by various arms
A glass that’s been drunk but somehow quite full
And there’s you in the midst of it all
Dance for me dear
Dance here
Dance for me
Cause you make me see colors I’ve never seen
Make me feel younger than I’ll ever be again
Got a book full of words arranged all in chapters
The ending is still happily ever after
A pathway of wrinkles etched in my skin
And there’s you in the midst of it all
Dance for me dear….

The you I thought I knew

THE YOU I THOUGHT I KNEW
Thought I knew you saw right through the many games you play
But your lies they jeopardized the rock on which they lay
Leaves me speechless, out of reach, without a road to take
I’ve got no strength left you took it all
Crashing on the shore
Floating out to see
Nobody’s there to hold me
Spinning in the waves
My head is in a maze
Trying to remember how you told me
But there is no light on the curtains they are drawn
And you’re gone
The you I thought I knew
Carefully I choose my words to make you understand
There’s no way to justify this place where I now stand
Thought I knew who I could be but she just left her keys
I watched my self fade and drive away
Crashing on the shore….
Don’t go
Don’t go away
There’s no
Way to stay in just one place
We’ve still got this boat and it’s
Crashing on the shore
Floating out to see
Please stay and hold me
Just leave the hall light on
I’ll be coming home

Down by the wayside
03:56
|

Down by the wayside
You’ve got me walking and filling in spaces
between what is often empty embraces
We oil the parts as they keep on running the show
Serve up the laughter on shiny white plates
This chipped ever after is not going to break
Cause we’ll manage to mend every harrowing crack in the wall
And our shadows barely touch at all
Pale reminders of just who we were
Down by the wayside we wait
With our weights
mmmmm….
Lists that need tending
While children are scheming
We capture the minutes before this new ending
We try to imagine but cannot quite open that door
Shelves overflowing and dripping with memories
No time to reflect while the train is still chugging
You push yourself to hear the voices that still fill the hall
And our shadows barely touch at all….

Horizon

THE HORIZON
Do what you want to
One step will lead the way
Do what you need to
Build up your bridge with it
Do what you have to
Get yourself through the day
Do what you love to
Cause you love to
Take your paint and throw your colors on the world
Find your voice and make sure your voice is heard
Keep your eyes on the horizon
Take the pain that life might dish out with some rain
Turn a leaf and start all over again
Keep your eyes on the horizon
All sacrifices lead toward a better you
Don’t compromise if it is what you see true
Take the surprises as they appear in stride
Sit in the backseat and enjoy the ride
Take your paint and throw your colors on the world
Find your voice and make sure your voice is heard
Keep your eyes on the horizon
Take the pain that life might dish out with some rain
Turn a leaf and start all over again
Keep your eyes on the horizon
Move right on do not lose sight of it
the mountain you climb up is never too high
and in spite of the darkness that blinds us
there’s always a light…there’s always a way
Take your paint…

All is well

ALL IS WELL
It’s a tick and a tock and a pile of pages
It’s a step and a trip on the miles of pavement
It’s a dance round the sun though it shines often dimly
It’s a change in the tides as the ocean abrades
Battles are won
Shelter is warm
Walls will protect us from the storm
Chapters in print
Stories to sell
Try to remember all is well
mmmmm…
It’s a matter of fact, you’re learning the hard way
Try to steer on the track cause you’re now pulling weight
As you pull from the hat you’re no longer a novice
And the smiles on your back are so hard to discern
Battles are won….

Another Saturday

ANOTHER SATURDAY
I spill over
You might have to clean it up
When I’ve been somewhere there are traces of broken things
Can’t do over
All the choices I have made
They’re already paved on the street where I live
No moving vans pass to give me a lift out
Another Saturday
Has come and gone and I just sat in here
All alone and counted each and every memo stuck to my wall
And I am running late on everything that I had meant to be
I’m in the pond but I so wanted to swim in the sea
Craving something
Outside the bindings of this book
Weakened muscles are losing their old grip
But they won’t let go
Been hanging on far too long
Is it something they know
A secret to lift me out
Another Saturday…..

HAPPY
When I wake up this morning the sun will be shining for me
I will put on my slippers and make myself a cup of tea
Then I’ll take a hot shower as long as I feel the need
And I’ll put on my soft shirt and my favorite ripped up blue jeans
I want to be happy today
I want to be happy
There’s nothing else here left to say
There’s a bird in the tree singing sweet as I play my guitar
And today though I will play for hours my back won’t get sore
I will call up a friend to see if she’s free for coffee
And we’ll laugh as we chat in the warmth of our little café
I want to be happy today
I want to be happy
There’s nothing else here left to say
Bridge:
This won’t be yesterday no
I won’t let it be
This is a brand new day for me
Send the what ifs away
There speech falls on dead ears
And let me breathe the liberty
I want to be happy…..

Hey Love

HEY LOVE
He really wants it wild like fire
It dances in shadows sparkling its big white smile
Sings with a sweet voice eager and bright
Determined to fill the pocket
Hey Love come on out offer your face
Hey Love got an itch in that hard to reach place
Hey Love have no breath left to run in the race ….alone
He finally found it lost in it’s charms
Spellbound with promise as the coins keep tumbling out
Gemini rising leaves him blind with delight
Indifferent to all the insight
Hey Love settle down stay for a while
Hey Love leave the scent of that brand new born child
Hey Love don’t stop now to bewitch and beguile….stay slow
Everyone will leave it untouched on the shelf
Everyone will look through the windows at somebody else
Sometimes a spark will light up the dark…who knew
He sits in silence with a comfort and ease
This ride of his life was a trip worth the deed
Oh so familiar your reflection is mine …it’s so
Hey Love I’m so glad that we met on the way
Hey Love I’ll be out in the back dreaming
Hey Love hold my hand as I wither and fade …you know…I love you

Relative

RELATIVE
They say that things are relative
We need to take we ought to give
And though we may be miles apart
You’re singing here, right in my heart
Because you are a relative
They say that things are meant to be
But I see you, you can’t see me
And I can turn the other cheek
Lose myself, plan my week
Is that how things are meant to be
Oh…….
They say somewhere we all are one
Yet some believe there’s just one son
But we should not deny a child
The gates of heaven must be wide
By closing them nothing’s won
Oh……

So Long

SO LONG
Hey here’s a maze you can play
If you want to run in the race it’s ok
The door is open
I’ll watch you as you wave
There’ll be another day
Of this I’m certain
So Long
I have learned to wait
No wrong
Accepting this here fate
I’ll place a new thought out there in space
And sway with the winds that wear my face
Even though I’ll miss you
Hey here’s a day you can take
It in your hands and shape it any which way
You’ve got two so
I’ll watch you as you make
Your journey back to me
And I’ll be waiting
So Long….
We bend we break
We try we fail
We hide we seek
Along we sail
We share we love
We love to share
Across the table I’ll see you there…
So long ……
