It's Gone

​

Leave me alone, my dreams are shattered, my feet are full of clay

just walk away, it dosen't matter, I don't want to face the day

I'm looking through the windows of a future I can't see

the whiskey in a bottle is calling out to me

and it used to be so easy but now it's gone, it's gone

Look at me now, do you remember the golden boy would shine

used to be strong, I'd walk on water, you couldn't hold me down

now I see shadows in the corner, I hear voices call my name

there are memories in the closet where I want  them to remain

and it used to be so easy but now it's gone, it's gone

 

 

Black and Grey

​

Some days, they say, are right as rain, some days are brown and black and grey

we used to dance, we used to play and this is love, it's here to stay

this is love but will it stay, will it stay

The lonely moon has shown his face and in his light I like to chase

her stockinged legs, so full of grace and this is love but is it real

this must be love that makes  me feel, makes me feel

Some days, they say, are right as rain, some days are brown and black and grey

but she wants more than black and grey and if it's love she cannot stay

if it's love she cannot stay, cannot stay

I try to force myself to dream so I can feel her heat again

was long ago and far away 

if it was love it's gone away,if it was love it's gone away, gone away

​

 Another Empty Sky

​

I don't think I've ever said "I can't believe" so many times in just one day

and there's no turning back the clock in hopes of finding innocence again

how many more must die before we all can breathe a sigh 

and say it's over

to see the children smile again is the only thing that matters to me now

my blood went cold with fear, my eyes were filled with tears

I hope I never see another empty sky

My heart will beat again, although tonight I cry

I hope I never see another empty sky

​

  Smile Like The Sun

​

Have I told you lately that you smile like the sun

you won't burn me down, you won't burn me down

you'll always be around, that's why I love you

I was thinking how your touch reminds me of the wind

it makes me want to fly,  I see it in your eyes

you take me to the sky, that's why I love you

wouldn't it be something if every day was me and you

wouldn't it be something if every sky was blue

(instrumental)

wouldn't it be something if every day was me and you

wouldn't it be something if every sky was blue

 

Have I told you lately that you smile like the sun

you won't burn me down, you won't burn me down

you'll always be around, that's why I love you

​

I Haven't  Let Go Of You Yet

​

You and I are still worth one more try

it's too soon to say goodbye

You can say the answer lies away

let me hold you in my arms again

but after the sweet memories of laughter

make you cry bitter tears of regret

remember that I promised love forever

I haven't let go of you yet

(instrumental)

but after the sweet memories of laughter

make you cry bitter tears of regret

remember that I promised love forever

I haven't let go of you yet

You and I are still worth one more try

it's too soon to say goodbye

 

 

Sings Like A Saxophone

​

A stranger that I'd never seen before was spinning out some stories at the bar

about a band he heard in Colorado Springs "man, you should hear the way that this guy sings"!

"I've heard them scream and rock and shout and moan, he sings like a saxophone"

I tried to close the distance that same night and hopped aboard the seven-thirty flight

I caught up with the band in Buffalo, man,there's no way that I'll forget that show

I've heard them scream and rock and shout and moan, he sings like a saxophone

I've heard them scream and rock and shout and moan, he sings like a saxophone

 

 

 

Left This Town

​

  I left this town, baby, you let me down but now I'm over you, over you

I'm going home, darling, the nights are cold, the wind comes blowing through, blowing through

and I'm so down that even angels feel the heartache

so torn up, so this is what it means to sing those lovesick blues

You sure did shine, baby, there'll never be another one like you, one like you

it's so bizzare, darling, I didn't see it coming, now we're through, now we're through

and I'm so down that angels even feel the heartache

so torn up, so this is what it means to sing those lovesick blues

The dream is gone, baby, but I'll go on, it's what I have to do, get over you

​

  El Silencio De La Noche

​

Me diras que todo es falso, que yo nunca te amare

me diras que estoy sonando, que no te comprendere

que la vida es como un sueno que se va pa no volver

no vivire sin ti, te amo

creo en el destino, aqui estamos tu y yo

en tus ojos veo el cielo, en tu sonrisa veo el sol

si me dises que no me amas, mi vida destrosaras

no vivire sin ti te tamo

cuando el silencio de la noche aveces te ase llorar

te juro con mis besos, tus lagrimas secar

cuando sientes emociones que te pueden lastimar

recuerda que mi amor es siempre solo para ti

no vivire sin ti, te amo

 

 

 

Jenny

​

Jenny's got a new man waiting on the side

she better be careful, don't go for a ride

I heard he's got a mean streak two miles wide

Jenny's got a new man waiting on the side

Jenny's got a body, thumping like a drum

she can put her moves on almost anyone

her old man's getting jealous, the troubles just begun

Jenny's got a body thumping like a drum

She can tempt  the devil, stay away from me

she taste just like candy, Jenny let me be

don't want to be a victim of her company

she can tempt the devil, stay away from me

​

​

It's You

​

There's a light on at the corner of the street where I would stand

and listen to the rhythms of the heartbeats in my hands

I'd think of you, you

It's a movie that I'm watching when I think I see your face

you could be the leading lady, it's a fantasy I chase

and it's you, you

it's just some romantic ballad to everybody else

but it's the story of my tortured heart that's playing on and on

There's a box that's full of letters of the love that we declared

and I've found the faded pictures of the moments that we shared

me and you, you

​

​

Melinda

​

You've got to listen to me please 

before you gather up the shattered pieces of your broken heart

I just remembered something I forgot to say

and I see the sun will soon be setting in your eyes

Melinda, I think I've done all that I can

I felt the passion in your hands. I've seen the crystal tears of pain

fall from your eyes and the disguises that you wear

Oh, Melinda stare at the stars for me tonight

let a memory come alive and listen for the name I'm calling in the wind

you know I never was pretending

and if you're waiting for the day to be over so you can dream another dream

and all the colors in your world have gone away

I have your rainbow in my hands

​

​

  Angel Eyes

​

Angel eyes you know you tear my heart in two

are you telling me you're mine or are you telling me we're through

lips of wine always leave me wanting more

will I be loving you tonight or are you walking out the door

surrender to the moment you belong to me

you tell me if I love you that I have to set you free

wrap yourself within my arms and let me hold you tight

but I know that tomorrow you'll be putting up a fight

​

​

 This Bottle

​

Should've never used the phone when I was crawling on the floor

poured my heart out like a river, shame on me

How to make myself a fool in twenty different ways

this bottle just can't teach me anymore

Now I'm up here singing but I can't carry a tune

dancing but my feet get in the way

floating like a feather and dropping like a stone

this bottle just can't teach me anymore

Gets me high and lays me low. The more I drink

the more I know. It's almost worth the price of hell I'm gonna pay.

Tonight is full of promises, tomorrow they'll be gone

this goddamn bottle just can't teach me anymore.
