The Thunder Rolls by

Image
The thunder goes rolling by Like a train on the stereo The rain sheets are pulled across The horizon's bed

the thing about goodbye

Image
the thing about goodbye comes up from time to time when someone leaves another stays and everyone needs a sign

windmill tied down

Image
Like a windmill tied down Can't let your breeze move me Like a windmill, not turning 'round I feel it blowing on my face Feel it flowing all around me Like a windmill, not turning 'round

at least that

Image
Listen to the ravens See what they say Will they tell you How much I've loved you since that first day when you found me wandering, knocking on your door... Will they say at least that?

stop acting like a fool

You are in my head you are in my heart what's a boy to do? where can he start to find a safe path to be where you are, to get to your side and get you in his arms? This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

I already know

Image
I can hardly wait For it to finally come true I can hardly wait to be there with you I don't think I'll find anything that comes close; Nothing else to find I already know When we're there together My voice finds a song My heart feels the tethers Slowly come undone When I'm in your presence I feel divine energy I can see what yet isn't and taste the reality This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

there, up in the mountain

Image
there, up in the mountain at about seven thousand feet above the ocean, there's a place where I can run where the night air is chilled and becomes a refreshment from the heat And I can see what's begun It's just furhwe revelation of things I already know are the truth about you and your love This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

go to waste

Looking for direction Scratching around for something new Grab a shroud for these imperfections That can't stand in front of you

number's up

Image
this time my number's up today is the day to begin see what's on the agenda and finish before the end pulled out all the stops when you told me don't pretend to know a single thing about what it takes to be showing myself how to let go of everything You've been wondering trying to figure it out if what I'm writing is really true or not could it be clearer than the songs I have sung will we be stronger when today has been undone? this time my number's up today is the day to begin see what's on the agenda and finish before the end This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

in the shadow

Image
Gonna find out if everything's alright Gonna grip it hard, gonna hold on tight Gonna mine every good thing inside there in the shadow Gonna see if there's a solution to this plight Gonna take it out for a long test drive Gonna discover what's rightfully mine there in the shadow In the shadow Where the memories play In the shadow Where healing's held at bay In the shadow In the dark inside In the shadow Where the spirit can talk In the shadow Where delusions fall In the shadow Way down inside Gonna peel things back, bring on tears Gonna finally get caught up with the years Gonna walk away from the fears Down in the shadow In the shadow In the dark inside In the shadow Where the spirit can talk In the shadow Where delusions fall In the shadow Way down inside This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License

take me back

Image
Take me back to the times we once knew To the places where we ran Take me back to the days when I knew Just exactly how to stand Those were times when life seemed easy Times when it was all so clear Take me back, take me back to the time called yesteryear Playing out in the cornfields Getting itchy, but we'd still run in and out of those long green rows on a never-ending quest for fun Those were times when life seemed easy Times when it was all so clear Take me back, take me back to the time called yesteryear it's not just yesterday not just a box of memories it wasn't no work and all play our laughter was mixed with tears it's part of our history -- a story we wrote together it was a time that only get's better a time called yesteryear. sitting under the oak tree there in the middle of the field waiting for the dogs to come back from chasing things we didn't see Those were times when life seemed easy Times when it was all so clear Take me back, take me back to

love and grace

Image
there's nothing quite like it nothing else even comes close to the joy I see in your smile hovering there beneath your nose if I could capture it for time or hang on eternally I'd hold the look there in your eyes when you're smiling down on me love and grace, truth and more all these gifts are at my door since you decided to let me in since you agreed, yeah, since then don't ever want to lose it never let it slip away or grow old with passing time watching it grow beyond its size bigger than it was when you asked me to sit down and try love and grace, truth and more all these gifts are at my door since you decided to let me in since you agreed, yeah, since then This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License
