Rusty and old, Left out in the cold
It’s been so long
Forgot about me, You lost the key
To start me up & turn me on
Youth is gone, Time moves on
You’ll never win that race
Just Look at yourself
See The age in your face
Can’t travel back
through time and space
Not Much more time
Time left to waste
Trying to find, A state of mind
Different time and place
Trying to find a feeling
To fill the empty space
Drive an old car, Hear an old song
It might take you there
Hop inside, We'll go for a ride
Feel the wind in our hair
Forever Young! The song's been sung!
Just a memory
But all those old songs!
Like a time machine
They can take you back
Through time and space
When we were young
So much time to waste
Looking for a future!
Buried in the past!
Looking for a Love!
A Love that can last!
Looking for truth and the fountain of youth!
Hope I find it fast
We can travel back
through time and space
Not Much more time
Time left to waste

Here I sit, Rusty and rotten
Idle and still, long been forgotten
I imagine the wind, The Thrill of the ride
Was I just dreaming, Still feel it inside
Now I’m waiting, To start up again
Can I still be, what I was back then
Will I be restored?, I’m wondering, I'm wondering when
I can feel you, Looking at me
My sad disrepair, Is that all you see?
Please fix me, Don’t throw me away
Bring me to life, Help me to stay
'Cause I’m still here, Locked up inside
Waiting to take , You for a ride
Waiting to feel, that new world, that new world outside
And I still believe Dreams can come true
Hope that you still, believe in me too
Just an old barn find, years without spark
Years without sunshine, Left in the dark
Out on the road, is where I belong
Filling the air, with my own song
We’ll be together, just humming, just humming along
So help me to be, what you’re dreaming of
It won’t be easy, a labor of Love

In Your Dream
03:47
|
|||
I can feel it in the night time
As I Fall into my dream
I leave another day behind
For Somewhere in between
Flowers in a window
All the Colors gone
A shattered piece of something
Suddenly feels wrong
Stand next to a freight train
Scream out loud and clear
On a track to nowhere
Was Never really here
See the cloud formations
With birds up in the sky
Reflecting on a miracle
Right before my eyes
Close your eyes and drift to sleep
Inside your head where you are free
And you can fly without wings
Only ever in your dreams
A distant sound of laughter
A fire in the night
a memory of somewhere
In a carnival of light
Feel a sense of wonder
Feeling something new
Dreaming of a lifetime
And spending it with you
Constructing my emotions
Fragile point of view
Something out of nowhere
Now I see the truth
Floating through a window
Nothing's what it seems
Laws of physics don't apply
In the world of dreams
Close your eyes and drift to sleep
Inside your head where you are free
And you can fly without wings
Only ever in your dreams

Back To Your Heart
04:16
|

It was raining that night
When you left me
You walked away
Didn't say goodbye
It's the little things in life
That really matter
But I forget to remember
Every time I try
I never knew what I wanted
I never knew what to say
I never knew how to feel
Now I need to find a way
Back to your heart
Your beautiful heart
That moment when you realize
It might be over
Everything that blooms
Must die
Good times and bad times
For better or worse
I remember those vows
How happy we were
I never knew what I wanted
I never knew what to say
I never knew how to feel
Now I need to find a way
Back to your heart
Your beautiful heart
I'll wait for you To Come back
In the morning
When the sun is out
and shining so bright
Maybe in a new day
You'll change your mind
And we can fall in Love
Wouldn't that be nice
Please help me find the way
Won't you help me find the way
Help me find the way
Back to your heart
Your beautiful heart

Needle In The Hay
03:35
|

SONG LYRICS:
Hear 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

Rescue Me
03:51
|

SONG LYRICS
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

A Daddy's Love
04:40
|
|||
Never thought I'd see the day, romantic Love has flown away
Not the kind of life that I had planned
My children make it all OK when they smile and laugh and wanna play
It's a daddy's Love I understand
It's a new reality and sometimes gets the best of me
Longing for a Love that I can't have
But when I wake up at dawn and hear my boy play his songs
It's a daddy's Love I understand
It's a daddy's Love I understand
When my daughter takes hold of my hand
And tells me that she Loves me more than anything
It's a daddy's Love I understand
And when I see my little boy discover life so full of joy
It's a daddy's Love I understand
So I put romantic Love on hold might be gone for good I just don't know
I've become a different kind of man
It's a daddy's Love I understand
Living in these wonder years I sometimes shed a tear
When I think of them all grown up and gone
But for now they call me daddy and this fills my heart with happy
It's a daddy's Love I understand
Yes romantic Love has flown away I hope that it comes back someday
But now I have a Love that has no end
It's a daddy's Love I understand

Open The Door

SONG LYRICS
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
