What You Do For Me
I was broken and sad
I couldn't see the good from bad
You willed me on as I took the bitterest blows
And showed me I was strong and the kindness flowed
Was I lying to myself back then
What the hell was true?
Somethiing could've been strirring
Something bright in you
I still love the things you dream of
and everything you see
I love your spirit and your soul
And I love the things that you did for me.
It;s just me here in the dark
I had a light on a mending heart
Didn't lean on you, didn't run to your arms
You watched, I steered myself from harm
Am I lying to myself again
What the hell is true?
There is somethiing that is stirring
There is something bright in you
Cos I love the things you dream of
and everything you see
I love your spirit and your soul
And I won't forget what you do for me.
So choose me now, yeah choose the two of us
Feel our skin, and feel our magic touch
So dress for me, I'll dress for you tonight
I'll be your man, you'll be my shining light
If I'm not the man you dreamt of
Not the man you see
If I never touch your spirit
Then I'll never forget the things you did for me.
I can't be a younger man
But I'll be the best I can
But you you you keep it coming around
So tread with me upon this fragile ground
Are we lying to ourselves right now
But something must be true
There is somethiing that is stirring
Between me and you
I still love the things you dream of
and everything you see
I love your spirit and your soul
And I love the things you do for me
I'll never forget what you do for me.

Hold Hands

HOLD HANDS
Restless inside
Turmoil is wild
Breathless from your resolve
Heartless from the dreams you sold
So cure the pain that you're holding in
Cure the pain, how to begin..
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
Senseless and numb
What have we become
You drive me away
Dissecting every word I say
Where's the plan that you had laid
It's not the cards, it's the way that you play
So hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
If you ignore the signs
If you're wasting time
If you body fails
If you go off the rails
If your joy has gone
If your friends seem wrong
If everyone's a fool
And there's nothing you can do
Except hold hands
Just hold hands
It's easy hold hands
Just hold hands
You make this so hard
You pull it apart
Compassion you betrayed
Release the things you shut away
No need to destroy when you could build up
No need to ignore your loving cup
Hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands
Just hold hands

ONE MORE UNIVERSE
Hey little friend
You said it should end
But I see you in the future
All this time
I been outta my mind
Cos I got a dream that would suit ya
If you listen hard
To the beat of your heart
Our footsteps will draw nearer
To another path
Of smiles and laughs
Now the truth seems clearer
Hey big man
Do the best you can
To hold the tide and be wiser
With a delicate tongue
We'll sing to the sun
To rid us of all of our anger
So here we go
To the places unknown
Together or not we'll make it
Digging inside
Leaving senses denied
Let's change but never break it
One more rush from a sensual touch and we'll fly
One more blaze from a loving gaze in your eye
One more kiss before we leave like this
One more chance for one last dance
One more them and one more us
One more you one more me
One more universe
Show a little love
For the stars above
They gave gifts to be using
If we share a little peace
Put yourself at ease
.... we win when we're losing
Eclipse of the sun
Cosmos has spun
There's shifting up in heaven
As I leave I see
You flying free
Thanks for all you've given
One more rush from a sensual touch and we'll fly
One more blaze from a loving gaze in your eye
One more kiss before we leave like this
One more chance for one last dance
One more them and one more us
One more you one more me
One more universe
If it feels a little harsh
Out in the dark
If feels a little bleak and lonely
If it feels to long
And the journey is wrong
The joy is coming slowly
And we laugh at what has been
And we move in a new scene
There I stare at you
Well what could we do
Go on go on go on go us
One more rush from a sensual touch and we'll fly
One more blaze from a loving gaze in your eye
One more kiss before we leave like this
One more chance for one last dance
One more them and one more us
One more you one more me
One more universe

The Art Of Letting Go

The Art of Letting Go
Powerful sun rose in the Spring
I lost the beauty maybe I lost everything
The place I was free is the place I was born
I'm gonna find it again, the hunt goes on and on and..
When I'm holding on to
All the things we should throw
We should be learning
The ways of Letting Go
If the feelings seem written down
Love runs deep below
Baby I'm learning
The Art of Letting Go
Drifting, drifting, fighting the tide
I'm unrestful now searching far and wide
You are beside me (it's not the way that I'd planned)
Strange things keep on working that you don't understand
When nothing is certain
I don't really know
I need to find me
The Art of Letting Go
So why are we struggling
To release some control
Baby we're learning
The Art of Letting go
Time to unlock
Find some release
Time for leaving
Time to be free
I'll be Ok
I'm gonna be just fine
I won't go crazy
or out of my mind
Farewell to the grip, feel it fade
On a brand new journey - watch me sail away
When I'm holding on to
All ways that you glow
I should be learning
The Art of Letting Go
So why are we struggling
To swim with the flow
Baby we are learning
The Art of Letting go
And let go
Watch me sail away
Then I'll fade away
Come what may...

EVERYTHING IS TAKEN
Everything is taken
Everything got sold
The promises are shut down
And daddy's getting old
Everything is taken
And hidden far away
Silence the whispered poetry
No truth. Not seen. Won't stay
But in comes the bright blue light
Sparkles from the past
Don't look at me don't look at me
This thing is meant to last
Everything is taken
Except a smile
Of glowing light awakened
From a world I'd left behind
Everything is taken
But still I turn the lock
Come inside and look around
Come on and throw me off
Bathe me in the bright blue light
Wash me in my past
Look at me Look at me Look at me
How does this wild thing last?
Lead me with a bright blue light
Release me from my past
Leave me leave me leave me
How will this new thing last?
Everything feels shaken
Like a child once more
But I'm wise enough to read the signs
Be strong and close the door
So everything is taken
And broken far apart
Everything is taken
Except my Heart
(segue to...)
EVERYTHING AWAKENS
(Instrumental)

Beautiful Thing

BEAUTIFUL THING
The cold of night
Won’t cool the blood
The dying light
Won’t change the mood
But when a senseless sense
Starts to sing
we lay to rest
a beautiful thing
The space
That’s left beside me
Lies deep and dark
inside me
But somewhere I know
That we must go
Blue Sky is calling
Full moon is rising
And I see you everywhere
Beyond my eyes
I'd fly you out
across the distant stars
To find a spinning world
that is just like ours
With another you
and another me
A caught in another
Destiny
Blue Sky is calling
Full moon is rising
And I see you everywhere
Beyond my eyes
The cold of night
Won’t cool the blood
The dying light
Won’t change the mood
But when a senseless sense
Starts to sing
we lay to rest
such a beautiful thing

Train

Train
This train is winding cross the land
Through the hills and through the driving sands
This train is headed to the sun
Speeding up, cos the journey's just begun
This station's at a changing of the tracks
Got to head out cos I'm never heading back
This station's a halt along the way
I don't know where that track is laid
This train is heading down the line
This train is running through the signs
This train heads where the world is kind
This train is running right on time
Paid my fare - ticket just one way
Don't know where I'm going or where I'll stay
I left my clothes and left a broken heart
This train is ready to depart
If you get off, get up and get a view
Watch the track til the train comes steaming through
If you are lost then give us all a wave
Cos you know I'll always love those trains
This train is heading down the line
This train is running right on time
This train is is stopping way too soon
Cos you know I'll always love just you

Girl Don't Know She's Beautiful
As I wake with her in the morning sun
Her breathing next to me
Her body strong and soft and warm
Her hair is wild and free
She always tells me
That she's less than wonderful
What is she thinking of
Girl don't know she's beautiful
My girl don't know she's beautiful
That's why she's soft and kind
My girl don't Know she's beautiful
Thinks I'm crazy in my mind
I see her walk across my room
Sunlight lights her thighs
She turns to ask me "What's up, baby?"
And she shuts her sunny eyes
I bet she's thinking
That she ain't no good at all
If she could hear the truth
The way she loves is hard to fault
My girl don't know she's beautiful
I wish she'd hear me say
My girl don't Know she's beautiful
In each and every way
But now we know we're beautiful
Together or apart
You and I are beautiful
In our eyes and in our heart

Wake Up!!

Wake Up!
Everything is mended
Everything is saved
Arise from the dark light
Into these sunny days
I'm feeling fine fine fine
Good to be alive again
Filled my soul, filled my body too
Gained my life in every vein
From where I stand I see for miles
Across the lands to better times
And now's the day I see
You're the one for me...
I Wake Up Wake up Wake up
Rise Up, Light up Jump up, Get up, wake up
So we got free, free to see
Big horizon stretching free
In front of you with the sky scrawling
Streaks of broken dreams
Hello to the open sky
And here's a brand new day
Hello to the big big sun
Love it all and not fade away
Come up here and see the promised land
Put our hearts in our broken hands
Reach up to the sky
You and I are finding why
Wake Up Wake up Wake up
Rise Up, Light up Jump up, Get up, wake up
Looking for the better life
Seeing through the cheats and lies
Wisdom, conscience, keep the beat
And our world will be complete
Wake Up Wake up Wake up
Rise Up, Light up Jump up, Get up, wake up
