Little Yellow Sports Car
little yellow sports car
sittin’ there so fine
won’t you take me out, for a little ride
I’ve got all day my friend, won’t you be mine
I see your dual exhausts there
must make you go so fast
take me to the moon, let’s go have a blast
I’ve got all day my friend, let’s make it last
your black convertible top
keeps you from the rain
but today the sun shines bright
let’s go chase a train
I’ve got all day my friend, let’s take the fast lane
wheels spin around their axle
treads are barely worn
road’s so smooth, air so warm
I’ve got all day my friend, let’s go honk that horn
little yellow sports car…..

Life Starts Over Again

Life Starts Over Again
today is the youngest
we'll ever be
time backs up for no one
not even me
if we try’n to stop a river
from running
we'd only get wet
and it’d keep on goin'
even the tallest mountains
of our land
can't help being worn down
and returned to sand
even the brightest stars
of glowing fire
will one day burn up
and completely transpire
even with death
there is no end
life just starts over
and over again
even with death
there is no end
life just starts over
and over again
at this moment
someone’s passing away
and newborn children
are on the way
today is the youngest
we'll ever be
let's appreciate
the harmony
even with death…..

Wish You’d Been Here To Stay
daddy can you see me singing here
can you see me from where you are
what’s it like up in heaven
do they serve wine and caviar
you come to me in my dreams
your presence strong and clear
I only wish you could talk to me
and take away my fears
life hasn’t been the same
since you’ve gone away
no, life hasn’t been the same
wish you’d been here to stay
I have a family of my own now
a girl and two little boys
I wish you could have known them
they sure make a lot of noise!
so much has happened here
there is so much to say
I hope some day to see you again
for that I can only pray
life hasn’t been the same….

Attitude (Behind Dark Shades)
she's got attitude.....
maybe you’re hot
or maybe you’re not
so take off those shades
let's see what you've got
you've got the look
you've got the style
but the eyes
they say what's what
she's got attitude.....
maybe you’re hot….
who are you behind dark shades
your high heel shoes and shorts of suede
hair tied back, like you're on parade
strutting like you've got it made
he's got attitude....
maybe you’re hot….
he's got attitude....
who are you behind dark shades
your muscled calves on rollerblades
a fine grown stud of premium grade
hey dude you've got it made
they've got attitude....
maybe you’re hot….
the pick up scene behind dark shades
just looking good to make a trade
harsh realities on the way
it looks like it's all a charade
attitude....

Down By the River

Down By The River
down by the river
down by the river one day
a voice deep within said
why don’t you jump right in?
I said, but why would I do that?
I’m comfortable here on shore
it’s safer to watch from a distance
hear that river roar!
why do I fear so?
can’t I just let go?
trust where life will take me
trust where the river flows
I put my toe in
just to test the water
no, now I think
it’s time to go on back
but go back to what
the river is calling me
maybe it’s time I took a chance
take me to the sea
why do I fear so….
I’m tired of resisting
and believing that I’m in control
why not relax?
and accept where I might go
why do I fear so….

Doesn't Make Sense

Doesn’t Make Sense
stained glass windows block my view
I want to know what’s happening outside
there is a musty smell of incense here
and it’s stinging my eyes
old men form a ritual parade
with young boys at their sides
I am a child and this doesn’t make sense to me
all these beliefs of what I cannot see
I don’t want to be a part of your lengthy creed
maybe it’s right for you but I just can’t follow your lead
high above a wooden figure
hangs up on the wall
kneel, heel, sit, stand and stay
are the commands we follow
repeating words that mean nothing to me
feels empty and hollow
I am a child….
monotonous music fills the hall
I am told that God is near
they say this is the way we must live
indoctrination through fear
guilt and shame is what I learn
to recover will take years
I am a child….

I Need To Go (Hannah’s Song)
I need to leave from this small town
my youth has been tainted with pain
the dynamite I carry
could burst me into flame
now it’s time to give it all up
and leave my past behind
release the fears that hold me
and free my mind
I need to go now go
and put on my black leather boots
I need to go now go
and say goodbye to these small town fools
I need to go……
ya….
I need to go……
and say goodbye to these small town blues
perhaps a spark of hope
and courage found deep within
can release this prisoner of darkness
who has not committed a sin
I can’t let anyone stop me
freedom can’t be far away
I will keep my intentions clear
and hope to find my way
I need to go now go….

Break It Loose

Break It Loose
break it loose
don’t hold back
move your body
that’s the knack
break it loose
don’t control
feel the rhythm
let yourself go
feel the most of being alive
don't be stiff and compromised
go for expressivity
feel the connectivity
forget about who you've been
seek a new groove deep within
cast away negativity
and trust your reflexivity
break it loose make a move
put on your dancing shoes
break it loose you can't lose
it's a sure cure for the blues
break it loose no more blues
put yourself to good use
break it loose shake it loose
anyway you choose
break it loose
don’t hold back….
feel the most of being alive…..
give yourself a chance
to learn a new kind of dance
enjoy some flexibility
open up to a new possibility
break it loose make a move
put on your dancing shoes….

Peace In Our World

Peace In Our World
why can't there be
peace in our world
I hold out hope
deep down in my soul
why focus on hatred
when it only brings pain to us all
can't we forgive and move on
before we freefall
why do we fight fire with fire
if it only creates infernos
can't we find other ways
and stop struggling with our foes
why can't there …..

Lovin' Like a Fool

Lovin’ Like A Fool
I ain't got time for fussin’ or broodin’
I ain't got time for being all blue
I ain't got time for kvetchin’ or complainin’
I've only got time for lovin' like a fool
sometimes I get feeling sorry and sad
think I’m lacking in what others might have
I ain't got time for being selfish and mad
I've only got time for lovin' like a fool
life is short, so they say
time flies by, I was told today
I ain't got time for another cliché
I only got time for lovin' like a fool
I've seen many pass on before me
my day will come and I too will be free
I ain't got time to think of what might be
I've only got time for lovin' like a fool
Just had a visit with a good ol’ friend
got me thinking how lucky we've been
I ain't got time to wait until the end
I've only got time for lovin' like a fool
No, I ain't got time….
