- Track Name: With Distance & Time
-
Thinkin’ about our yesterday
Before the years got in the way
And you
Are always in my heart
Yes you
Will always be a part of me
I can still hear the way you laugh
Echoing from that photograph
Of you
Are always in my heart
Yes you
Will always be a part of me
Old feelings fade away
Yeah they all just seem to change
with distance and time
If I try and rekindle that old flame
would you just simply pull away
From me
And let it fall apart
And leave
Me with a broken heart for you
Old feelings fade away
Yeah they all just seem to change
with distance and time
Will you still be mine - Track Name: The Ghost Of Our Love
-
The ghost of our Love just left the room
It aint coming back here anytime soon
In fact I saw it disappear
And wipe away all those years
Just wipe away all those years
Now Our story has come to an end
Guess it’s time we tell our friends
Burned through the chapters in our book
It’s too late now for one last look
It’s too late now for one last look
We had some good years you and I
The ghost of our Love said goodbye
Turned to dust in the winds of change
But if I asked you would you stay?
Yes if I asked you would you stay?
The one I wanted was always you
I feel a cold wind coming through
Chills my heart to feel our Love die
But we both know all the reasons why
Yes we both know all the reasons why
I know the kids are almost grown
The greatest Love I’ve ever known
They came from our Love long ago
Now they’ll find Love on their own
Now they’ll find Love on their own
We had some good years you and I
The ghost of our Love said goodbye
Turned to dust in the winds of change
But if I asked you would you stay?
And if I asked you would you stay? - Track Name: Here We Are
-
Now we’re in the winter of our years
Hearts grow colder and the feelings disappear
Our lives get complicated by things we can’t control
Happiness is overrated when it’s bought and sold.
And here we are Together yet alone
Can we hear that old song and still feel the same
Climb on and we’ll take a ride down memory lane
And here we are Different yet the same
I remember the feeling when we met and fell in Love
In your eyes I saw everything I was dreaming of
And here we are Love letter never sent
Let’s plan another trip somewhere let’s start today
Build a brand new house on a new memory lane
And here we are Nothing left to say
Can’t live with Love and you can’t live without
That’s what I’ve heard some people talking about
To be in Love is something you can’t ever keep
Maybe their feelings don’t run too deep
Time to build new dreams from feelings I have found
Time to dance again and spin you round and round
And here we are Love lost and now found - Track Name: Might Be Surprised
-
I heard an old song
Never heard it before
Wasn’t very long
But it opened a door
It reached right out
And shine a light on Love
And I have no doubt
It was sent from above
Why try to hide your soul?
Open the door before you get too old
But what if there’s nothing left to find
If you open the door you might be surprised
So all these old songs
You’ve never heard before
Why’d it take so long?
To unlock the door
So open your eyes
And open your ears
A whole world outside
New songs to hear
Why try to hide your soul?
Open the door before you get too old
But what if there’s nothing left to find
If you open the door you might be surprised
You say you don’t like
Most music today
All the industry hype
All the product for sale
But don’t just be
A consumer of things
Set yourself free
Live your own dreams
But what if there’s nothing left to find
If you open the door you might be surprised - Track Name: SONGS (From That Place In Time)
-
Time of your life, that was the time of your life
Thoughts of memories may still remain
Songs we listened to still haven't changed
Shattered dreams and good wishes granted
How those old songs recall all of this
Puppy love that always seemed to miss
Songs from that place in time
Caught yourself believin'
You would live young endless life
Had no plans for leavin'
Songs are like old friends of mine
Always there when you need 'em
Snowy mountain tops and summer sunlight
Stretching out on California's coast
With my old friends I remember most
Chilling spine songs, romantic love songs
Going street dancing on Fiesta nights
Watching bands play under colored lights
Songs from that place in time
Caught yourself believin'
You would live young endless life
Had no plans for leavin'
Songs are like old friends of mine
Always there when you need 'em
Time of my life that was the time of my life
We were young and lived that endless day
But those old songs never go away - Track Name: Disappear
-
I think I'm lost.....I think I'm all alone
I need some light.....To find a way back home
A little taste.....Of the cold night air
Darkness waits.....I feel it everywhere
I think it's time......To Disappear
Went searching for.....What I thought was mine
Looked everywhere.....Just ran out of time
I found myself.....On an empty beach
I see a light.....Dancing on the sea
I think it's time.....To Disappear
I hear an old song.....I look into that light
It's summertime.....1965
I watch my life.....Pass before my eyes
I see a child.....Says everything's alright
I think it's time.....To Disappear
That little child.....Was once inside of me
So innocent.....And so carefree
I took his hand.....We ran toward the light
I watched my life.....For one last time
I think it's time.....To Disappear
Now time to cross.....To the other side
Now nothing left.....Of my past Life
In a flash.....I'm no longer here
As I dissolve.....into the atmosphere
I feel the Love.....And I Disappear - Track Name: DRILL BABY DRILL
-
Let's appoint a commission.
Try and place the blame.
Start legal maneuverings.
You know the game.
Withhold information
Don't let the public know
Limit Liability!
Meanwhile oil flows
Drill Baby Drill
So we sit and we talk
And talk some more
Start partisan bickering
Dead sea life washes ashore
Every minute wasted
On political games
Means more sea life lost
Have they gone insane?
Drill Baby Drill
Speedy Drilling Greed
Damaged blowout seal
70,000 barrels a day
Time to get real
As the Gulf Coast turns to dead zone
Devoid of all life
Oil Plume underwater
Too late to make it right
Drill Baby Drill
Damage Control!
That's all we can do
When will it end?
Nobody has a clue
Turn you back on Nature
Try and cover your a$$
testify to congress
They liked your campaign cash
Drill Baby Drill
Drill Baby Drill
Drill Baby Drill - Track Name: My Big Mistake
-
Where is everything that never changed?
Why’s my life feel rearranged?
All I know is it feels so strange
Without You
I remember you way back when
We were so much more than friends
Never wanted the feeling to end
That much is true
How I wish I had a crystal ball
That fortune teller should have spilled it all
A Broken heart
Like I never knew
Here’s to the future we’ll never see
Never saw the possibility
My big mistake
Was trusting you
My soul is drifting on the open sea
Empty echo inside of me
When will someone come and set me free
Am I really through
Where did the time go I look around
I may be lost but I’ll soon be found
Shut the door and don’t make a sound
It’s nothing new
How I wish I had a crystal ball
That fortune teller should have spilled it all
A Broken heart
Like I never knew
Here’s to the future we’ll never see
Never saw the possibility
My big mistake
Was trusting you
My big mistake
Was loving you
There’s nothing more
Now we’re all through - Track Name: Child Without A Home
-
Somehow we lost our way
Nowhere to turn today
Somewhere In the USA
A child’s without a home
Well there’s something I can’t reconcile
Some children haven’t eaten in a while
While some billionaires are living in style
While a child’s without a home
This Is Wrong
Three Decades of Wall Street Greed
Went unnoticed by the SEC
Caused a crash of our economy
Now a child’s without a home
People watch homes foreclose
Lost jobs when the economy froze
A school provides food and clothes
To help children without homes
This is wrong
And our government should be ashamed
They had decades to stop greedy games
Yet they chose to look the other way
Another child’s without a home
We pay out bonuses to billionaires
Nobody asked if that was even fair
To the homeless child standing over there
Dreaming about a home
This is wrong - Track Name: Rescue Me
-
I see a glimmer of a ghost light in my mirror
Reflections of a World I cannot see
A distant whistle of a train that's getting nearer
Racing down the tracks to rescue me
Rescue me because I don't know what is real
Rescue me because I don't know how I feel
Please Rescue Me
And set me free
Ever feel like your career is over
One chance to make it come and gone
Had a dream that I found a four leaf clover
Had a dream that my lucky break had come
Rescue me from more reality TV
Rescue me from watching any more broken dreams
Please Rescue Me
And set me free
People paralyzed by their own fear
Remember how we once all felt so free
When will all this darkness just disappear
When will the beautiful light come and rescue me
Rescue me from this consumer culture scene
Rescue me because I don't know what it means
Please Rescue Me
And set me free
I see a glimmer of a ghost light in my mirror
I see that nobody can rescue me but me - Track Name: Since The Beginning Of Time
-
Ever since the beginning of time
Mother Nature has a rhythm and rhyme
Then Man came along
With his industrial crimes
Human race can only survive
If we stand by Mother Nature’s side
She’s suffered our abuse
Up to her to decide
Can we win back trust or will she leave us behind?
If war and killing wasn’t enough
Man pollutes the air with poisonous stuff
Burns rainforests and fill the ocean with oil
Instrumental
All God’s creatures have their place
It’s not just about the human race
Everything’s connected
And what gives us the right
To kill and destroy
all that beautiful life
Global warming is upon us now
Took us a while to figure it out
And now that we know
We need to turn it around
And now we talk of being green
Promoting clean energy
While we burn fossil fuel
And build our war machines
And worry about the world economy
Will we ever learn to live in harmony
Will we ever learn to live responsibly
Will there ever be a time when we can live in peace
Instrumental
Mother Nature’s gonna take a stand
‘Cause she’s tired of being raped by greedy man
Being stripped of precious gifts every single day
She’s left battered and bruised
and laid to waste
I see an innocent Childs face
They can help us illuminate
Shine the light of Love
On the darkness of Hate
Ever since the beginning of time
Mother Nature has a rhythm and rhyme
Let’s be thankful for
All that she provides
She asks nothing in return
For sustaining life
Our time here on earth
Is just a blink of her eye - Track Name: Hello Old Friend
-
Hello old friend
Still can see your smile
Even though it’s only a memory
Hello old friend
Yes it’s been a while
Ten years or more or so it seems
Hello Old Friend
Hello Old Friend
Sure good to hear your voice again
Can’t wait to see you again
Wonder what’s taken us so long
All those feeling come rushing in
Feelings I thought were dead and gone
Hello old friend
Still the way you used to be
Always had a sparkle in your eye
Hello old friend
We lived a life so free
Made each other laugh until we cried
Hello Old Friend
Hello Old Friend
Laughing at old photographs again
So good to see you again
Wonder what’s taken us so long
We’re older now with wrinkled skin
But in our hearts we’re still so young
Hello old friend
Slow down the pace
Not ready to cross that finish line
Hello old friend
Nothing’s really changed
Still those crazy kids down deep inside
Hello Old Friend
Hello Old Friend
Wish our visit togethr never had to end
Let’s hear some old songs again
Wonder what’s taken us so long
Grab your guitar we’ll start right in
Maybe even learn a brand new song
Goodbye Old Friend
Until we meet again
Make a place in time for where and when. - Track Name: Buckets Of Tears (Cover of Rob Moynes song)
-
Don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Don't know where I'll be in a year
These days life is uncertain
it's just a bucket of tears
I'm lost on a lonely highway
Trying to find my way back home to you
Babe! I've lost all sense of direction
and the love of friends I once knew
Buckets of tears coming through
chorus
I wish that this was another one of my bad dreams
and I would wake up by your side
I wish I could have put those poisons down
and that's where I'd be today
But I'm standing in the rain
and Goddamn those clouds!
It looks like buckets of tears falling down
So hey hows it going?
when you asked me I said I was fine
but this pain does not get much better
even with the passing of time
It was a long long road together
and I guess it just had to bend
But I'm still searching for that off ramp
that will bring me back home again
And maybe these nightmares will end.
Chorus - Track Name: Together Once Again
-
Why are you always on my mind?
Drivin’ me insane
How could I ever be so blind
As not to see the game
That I’m playing with my mind
How could I be so blind?
Like being awake in a dream
That’s how it felt with you
That’s how it all once seemed
Making Love brand new
When we drove each other apart
You walked away with my heart
You and Me
Together once again
I know it just can’t be
But I can always dream
No matter where we go
You know I’ll always care
I hope you’ll always know
and remember times we shared
Across all the years and the miles
Hope I can still make you smile
It’s been decades since those days
Memory of you is still clear
Time has passed away
But part of me holds you dear
You’ve made a new life somewhere
With people who Love you there
You and Me
Together once again
There in my memory
Right up till the end - Track Name: A Needle In The Hay
-
I have a whisper of a memory
Late at night it speaks to me
Tells me all those things I can’t believe
Feel your touch across distance and time
You live your life and I live mine
There was a time when we were meant to be
But that train left the station
That ship has sailed away
Such a very long time ago
Been decades since that day
Trying to find you now
Would be like looking
For a needle in the hay
Sunset colors deep red in the sky
Dreaming about the day when you and I
Run across that sandy beach of time
I can still feel your warm embrace
Reminds me of that time and place
And the fire I once saw in your eyes
But that train left the station
That ship has sailed away
Such a very long time ago
Been decades since that day
Trying to find you now
Would be like looking
For a needle in the hay
So if you hear a whisper someday
Your memory is coming back to say
It’s never too late to find a way
To let the light back in
And Sometimes seems impossibly insane
To find a needle in the hay - Track Name: Hate
-
When you were born you didn’t know how to hate
Came into the world an innocent soul with a clean slate
As you grew up then you looked around the schoolyard
Went to make some new friends but they called you ugly names and hit you hard
You came to me tears rolling down your face
Broke my heart to tell you that they’ve already learned to hate
So as you walk through life remember to avoid
People who hate their fellow man and are looking to destroy
CHORUS:
Just because someone else hates you...doesn’t mean...you need to feel the hatred too
We might just end up saving the world
But it starts with you my friend...and all our little boys and girls
Put aside your differences....and preconceived beliefs
Believe in Love then we can all...start living in Peace
You asked me “daddy how did the world ended up this way?”
All I can hope for is when you grow up you’ll be OK
So never be afraid to stand for peace and love
Don’t let fear take over……learn to rise above
Stay away from people who always believe they’re right
They’re only really looking to start a fight
And religious extremists on both sides would have you believe like them or go away or die
CHORUS
Beware of corporate media news…..reports on war
They’ll treat it like a sports game and just keep score
They’ll give it some ridiculous name and hype it for prime time
Gotta keep the sponsors happy and meet the bottom line
Don’t even bother anymore to tell the people what’s wrong
The days of good night and good luck are now long gone
So take these lessons you've learned and pass them on
Go out in the world and sing your song
CHORUS - Track Name: Give It All Up For Love
-
Give it all up for Love
I hear some people say
Give it all up for Love
It’s the only way
It’s one thing to say it
Quite another to try.
Like the difference between the Truth
And telling a lie
Only thing Love has ever brought me
Is too much pain
Why the hell would I want to go back
And feel it again
Don’t want to feel it again
So when you gonna do it?
Finally lose the fear?
Let your spirit sing out loud
For everyone to hear?
Such a simple question
With no answer to find
Have to trust your feeling
Just go in blind
Go in blind
Love may not be the answer
It doesn’t pay the bills
So why the hell should I surrender
To Love I cannot feel
So afraid to feel
Each moment can reveal
A meaning to us all
Just have to learn to feel
The hidden call
Give it all up for Love
It’s the only way
Give it all up for Love
Stop being afraid
Stop being afraid - Track Name: I Don't See You Anymore (Steven Oakland song)
-
late last night i pictured you smiling in my mind
im lost so tell me where to now
ive fallen down with a heavy heart
trying to find my way
said your love would stay but now its gone
i tried to relive all those times we had
but that just made me cry
i long to feel your touch and see your face
chorus -- but i dont see you anymore
i cant feel you near
i dont see you anymore
i cant feel you here
the times we laughed and played the fool
oh how i loved you so
walking hand in hand with you in the rain
haunted thoughts of broken hearts
sat down by the lake
i looked around in hope you would be there
a deep and dark and lonely part
of where our love had grown
you brought the basket that we shared
a loving smile a longing stare
the sun was in my eyes
hiding tears of laughter joy and pain
but i dont see you anymore
i cant feel you near
i dont see you anymore
and i cant feel you now - Track Name: by Pat Alaggio, James P. Royle and Edward Sparks & Gil - A River That Flows Through Sorrow
-
There's a painting is every sky
Portraits of sorrow seen below
drawing colors from its Mother
and from its Fathers' distant glow
There's a river that flows through sorrow
weeping tears along the way
driven home and to the ocean
searching for another place to play
But the Oceans’ arms grow weary
and her good intentions are not enough
Still, with loving tides she greets her child
their salty tears color the skies above
A pod lays beached upon the shoreline
their laments sung with gasping blows
and from a distance a lonely sailor
asks for courage to face his foes
A wandering child crosses the sand dune
summoned by a song she hears below
Falls to her knees when she sees suffering
just lying there, dying there... all in a row
Her parents try to calm convulsions
but can only join her with more tears
Should have done more to save our planet
But we let a few powerful feed our fears...
Now a salmon, a bear, a cat no longer runs
What used to be a teeming forest now dying in the sun
Where wolves had roamed while rearing up their young
We’re in the age of man whose ending has begun
You tell me understanding someday will begin
but we can’t even feel the ruins from within
We've met and talked and then we talked some more
Seems we're far worse off than the lowest homeless whore
At least she’ll go and try to protect her precious child
While "the elite of SO-CI-E-TY" only destroy the wild
With no concern for our children or lessons learned before
Will we just stand idle, or TEAR DOWN THEIR BLOODY DOOR!
Because we're tired of fighting and dying IN THEIR BLOODY WARS - Track Name: Moments
-
Moments pass right through us
As we try to understand
Some are priceless gems
That pass right through our hands
Twist and turns of life
Like an ancient river flow
The reason and the rhyme
We’ll probably never know
So what is it that matters
As walk upon this Earth
A future for our children
The miracle of birth
Nature has so many ways
Of showing us what’s real
Will we ever get to see the day
When her secrets are revealed
What is it we’ve learned
From this experience called life
Are lessons taught within our dreams
Somewhere in the night
Moments turn to memories
And some fade with time
Feel that fresh cool ocean breeze
Hear the old wind chime
Somewhere I hear a song
Playing clear as day
Memory of a moment gone
Comes back to me that way
So open yourself up
Feel the moments passing through
Living in each moment
Is the best thing we can do
And the moments fly by fast
In the rush hour of life
Until It’s time to take an exit ramp
And Drive off toward the light
So slow down take your time
We don’t have very long
The reason and the rhyme
Might find you in a song - Track Name: Miss You
-
MISS YOU
Things I should have said
Things I should have done
Before your spirit left your body
But now you’re gone
Remembering moments that I had with you
Things we never got around to do
Do I have regrets?
Well maybe just a few
At times I feel the love
That we once knew
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
Your spirit will always guide me through
Imagining you are always near
Hoping you’ll somehow reappear
I struggle with the past
Mistakes that I have made
My strength is fading fast
I need you here today
Down here all alone I’ll always Love You
The angel you've become still knows it’s true
Learning to face each day without you
Your spirit will always guide me through
Yes Your spirit will always guide me through
Emptiness is a feeling I know well
Still alive but sometimes hard to tell
People can see me cry
But I don’t really care
I look up into the sky
And feel your presence there
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
Your spirit will always guide me through
Yes Your spirit will always guide me through
You’re up there where love is all around
I’m down here still tethered to the ground
And when my time comes
I won’t be afraid
With You by my side
Two Souls on the way
I’m with you
I’m with you
Finally with you
Your spirit will always guide me through
Yes Your spirit will always guide me through
