Bitter Sweet

 A little light looks through her bedroom window She dances and I dream, she’s not so far as she seems Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets Her hair blowing in the breeze And she can’t see me watching And I’m thinking love… Love… Love… Love… It’s bittersweet More sweet than bitter Bitter than sweet It’s a…

Come with me

Afraid to lose control And caught up in this world I’ve wasted time, I’ve wasted breath I think I’ve thought myself to death I was born without this fear Now only this seems clear I need to move, I need to fight I need to lose myself tonight Whoa, come with me now I’m gonna…

Midnight Train

So I pick up the pieces, I get on the midnight train I got my reasons, but darlin’ I can’t explain I’ll always love you But tonight’s the night I choose to walk away I can’t stop cryin’, I hate that I’ve caused you pain But I can’t deny it, I just don’t feel the…

At Maggie’s

I wandered today to the hills, Maggie To watch the scene below The creek and the creaking old mill, Maggie As we used to long, long ago The green grove has gone from the hills, Maggie Where first the daisies sprung The creaking old mill is still, Maggie Since you and I were young Oh,…

Little Moments

Let it go Let it roll right off your shoulder Don’t you know? The hardest part is over Let it in Let your clarity define you; In the end We will only just remember how it feels Our lives are made In these small hours These little wonders These twists and turns of fate Time…

Prince Frog

An old fairytale told me The simple heart will be prized again A toad will be our king And ugly ogres are heroes Then you’ll shake Your fist at the sky “Oh why did I rely On fashions and small fry?” All promises broken Feed your people or lose your throne And forfeit your whole…

Just ride

I’ve been out on that open road You can be my full time, daddy white and gold Singing blues has been getting old You can be my full time, baby Hot or cold Don’t break me down I’ve been travelin’ too long I’ve been trying too hard With one pretty song I hear the birds…

Siesta

I don’t get much workin’ done But I sure have a lot of fun Fiesta ends, it’s almost dawnin’ So how’m I gonna get up in the mornin’ When I get up at noon each day, it’s time for siesta And after siesta comes fiesta Siesta (La-la-la-la-la-la) Siesta (La-la-la-la-la-la) Siesta (La-la-la-la-la-la) Siesta (La-la-la-la-la-la) I don’t…

Out of the sun

Hey, where you watching now? Let me send you the score I want to wave from the opposite shore Oh, it’s all just trash And nothing lasts But I want to believe Like we’re back there on our knees On the dance floor Laughing our asses off Waking with a cough Oh it’s all just…

Blue sunset

I can’t turn the lights out darling I can’t close the door I can’t say forever Cause I’ll love you evermore You changed me You changed me You held my hand at night We crumbled – the tears were black and gold The eyes of fallen lovers whispered: “Never evermore” You changed me You changed…
