Don’t let the night be a stranger
Don’t let the darkness
chase you away
The world is coming up around you
It’s a gift just like the sunrise
Don’t waste your turn to play
Daze
Look into my eyes, You know who I am
I’m still alive inside, I have not changed
I was the one, We dreamed the dream
But we could not run
when the darkness came
Where have I been
down these dusty roads
To many long nights I walked it alone
What am I searching for
every single night
Why do I lay awake
untill the morning light
Something is missing yes it’s true
You are right next to me, but it’s you
From The Beginning
There are so many songs about time, ticking away,
Time is on my side but still it waits for no one.
Time is not your friend, not a friend to anyone.
Time is not on your side. Foolish Pride.
It’s here to make you run.
The sun is going to chase you every single day
into the darkness, where you may feel safe.
Then it comes back again tearing up the night
with the burning light exposing all your life.
You will never get away
as it chases you through each burning day,
and soon you’ll lose track of all time.
One night in the darkness
you might see where your life has gone
and you know the sun is a coming
but your just too tired to run.
I remember waiting for the sunrise,
so many times we sat up all night.
Every sunrise a miracle as it burst into our eyes.
Its ticking down the moments that remain in our small lives,
but I cannot hate the sun the way a dead man hates the gun.
It has given me the warmth I needed
and filled my darkness with the light.
So I spent the day thinking about the tracks of time
n the ones who brought me to life.
Yes they had it tough, they had it bad.
They had good times and they had the sad.
A child always faces a world more complex
than the simple lives that brought you to be.
We did not see it before they were gone
nor the fights they had won that brought us along
through the pain and the changes
that lead us here down through the ages,
where generations have passed through the portal of time.
The young ones get set at the starting line.
Spring
I’ll be dancing in the spring time.
Just you wait and see.
If I’m still alive when the snow is gone
I’ll be running through the trees.
Nothing really to shout about
But it really makes me pleased.
I’ll be playing in the sunshine.
I’ll be floating on the breeze.
Sight
Have you ever really looked around at your world?
Have you ever taken the time to truly take a look around?
Your world is astounding and it’s right there with you.
Life’s miracles within your reach.
Impossibilities hard to believe.
Your world is astonishing right beneath your feet,
and it’s always right there with you.
Have you ever truly looked around ?
You may feel like your stuck to the ground in a world passing without a sound,
But your life is amazing and it’s right there with you.
Earth
This silence is so deafening just a roar inside my head.
The air so thick around me like a dark churning sea.
This life is heavy on me and sometimes its hard to breath.
I look up in the sky and I can see the stars they move.
I feel the earth turning right beneath my feet.
The time is racing and I feel it losing me.
I stepped back from the edge with just a glimpse inside.
Now the days fly by, but somehow not the nights.
Still my bones ache from the passing of the time.
Dreams fade but somehow not mine.
The burning day is over.
Now it’s time to play.
Some notes like magic falling from a rainbow on a wave.
The moon light shines down on me and turns my night right into day.
I think it makes me stronger and my troubles start to fade.
Cast the tune, let it fill the room.
Let it fly, like and angel’s cry.
Drive that beat right into the night.
Drive me crazy till the morning light.
You were born to rock so pick up the clock.
Gotta get on top of a wave that rolls.
You should know by now, you live to rock.
The clock is ticking now we gotta go.
You know it’s a race.
Can my mind put it together
Before my fingers forget.
I’ve spent my life running.
I just could not get somewhere.
It just quietly came to pass,
I was already there.
Angels
Every single heart beat,
every breath you take,
Is a miracle from the time you awake.
You are an angel, yes its true.
This world was made here
just for you.
New Life
The world is new.
I try to find just what I might say
that would help to show you the way,
but it’s just not really there.
Every life is so different
and so unique.
What works for one
turns out to kill the next.
Now the poision I take keeps my heart beating in my chest.
I live for the sunrise and the sunset.
The wind and the breeze are my dreams as they sail through another sunny day.
My life is a few moments left at the end of one crazy race,
where I am the winner and the loser of every single place.
Weary
Miles to go before I sleep.
Miles gone by that I did not see.
I never really thought that I would ever get this far.
Like a storm on the wind,
the dark clouds are my friends.
Seems like so very long ago,
I thought this would all be so different.
Life is never what you would expect it to be.
Every second is a miracle
and most don’t see it.
When I walked alone down that white line,
right out of town so long ago,
I did not think I had anything to lose,
but I was so wrong.
My life passed by in the twinkle of an eye.
Time is like a bullet,
you will never see it coming.
I walked that center line right out of town on a dark and moon lite night.
Afraid of the noises I could hear in the darkness to my left and to my right.
I walked for hours through the countryside down that straight white line.
I thought somehow I might loose those bad dreams I had left behind.
They say don’t look back
but I did so many times.
What was lying deep in the darkness drove me harder down that line.
With the sun came a ride
now I’m a million miles away.
There is no going back,
I left no tracks.
My path has faded in the day.
Notes
Just a couple of notes,
on my finger tips.
Let the tune roll off my fingers.
Some soft words might pass my lips.
Let the night stay and linger.
I’m floating notes out on the wind.
Let the sound slip through my fingers.
There’s an angel falling from my hand.
She touch my heart and start a fire.
Just let it rock.
Let her roll. Let the tunes roll.
Let it move you.
Let it start a fire down in your soul.
Just let it rock.
Let her roll.
Let it move you.
Let it start a fire burning out of control.
Just a couple of notes, on my finger tips.
Let the ring roll round her finger.
Some soft words to pass my lips.
Let the night stay and linger.
I’m floating notes out on the wind.
I Let her hair slip through my fingers.
There’s a rainbow falling from my hand.
It echoes back like the sounds of thunder.
Just let it rock.
Let it roll.
Beat the drums all night.
Start a fire burning out of control.
Just let it rock.
Let it roll.
Let it move you.
Let it start a fire down in your soul.
Falling notes, like the tears I cry.
Like embers floating on the wind.
Float out the door and float out of sight.
Please come back and bring my lover.
Just let it rock.
Let it roll.
Let it move you.
Let it start a fire down in your soul.
Moon shines bright right through the night.
Don’t let the night be a stranger.
Now beat the drums to the dancing feet.
Echoes back like the sounds of thunder.
Just a note on my fingertip.
Some soft word while we linger.
A rainbow falling from my hand.
Crashing down like so much thunder.
An ember floating on the wind.
Touch your heart and start a fire.
