Lyrics

 

Everything                                    

I wrote her name in the sand today                               

Watched the sea sweep my prayer away                       

Could the ocean somehow steal her eye?                       

Could those letters reach the shores of her mind?            

And I’m afraid afraid she stole my heart                         

I can’t seem to place it                                               

Can’t seem to erase those times                                   

                                                                              

I stand here looking back                                         

A fallen angel in this stranger’s town

I stand here looking on

Forgot the days pursuit for its you that I long

Everything about everything around everything

 

I remember when she slipped my sight

All those choices smoked the distant light

I fell to circles swimming in the breeze

Evicted my reason to do what I please

I still find us together in bits and pieces

scribbles and scratches

And I can’t seem to erase those times

 

I stand here looking back

A fallen angel in this stranger’s town

I stand here looking on

Forgot the days pursuit for its you that I long

Everything about everything around everything

 

I watch clouds blanket the setting sun

And the waves drown the daily hum

Oh could I grate one more laugh

Oh could I garner a last smile

Yes I believe the future belongs to us

I can’t erase a month the years have past

 

I stand here looking back

A fallen angel in this stranger’s town

I stand here looking on

Forgot the days pursuit for its you that I long

Everything about everything around everything

 

 

Lately Troubled

 

My favorite song on the radio

As life melts in the summer sun

And I’m just wondering what tomorrow holds                                                

Will I see the California sun?

Will I be forever on the run?

 

There’s a one-way street of my lonely town

Where the wind blows your name forever

Where my souls your piece of clay

Where sunshine steals the gray

 

And If I seem lately troubled                

It’s only because you’re yet to be found

And before my time slips away away

Could I lose my trouble in you?

 

I’m trying to find you voice in this world

I’m just trying to fight through the noise of this world

I want to be with you lets live tonight

I’ll touch your spirit the dustless light

 

And If I seem lately troubled                

It’s only because yet to be found

And before my time slips away

Could I lose my trouble in you?

 

Though the jester turned my heart to stone

You can break the chains that keep me alone

From a distance I can taste our sweet memory

Restive I know you’re the one for me

 

And If I seem lately troubled                

It’s only because you’re yet to be found

And before my time slips away

Could I lose my trouble in you?

 

And If I seem lately troubled                 

It’s only because you’re yet to be found

And before my time slips away

Could I lose my trouble in you?

Would I lose my trouble in you?

 

Room 16

 

It happens only once in a life time

A blanket of stars I’ll never forget

Like pieces of heaven falling from the sky

the tears of someone unable to die

 

A group of friends sit around the light

Last time together for many a night

Spread like the sand across the shore

not yet knowing what their lives stood for

but that’s the wish I wished right then

that after that night we’d stand as men

 

chorus

So come on and share your smiles with me

As we stumble past the broken signs                                                           

We’ll laugh until it stays away

And leave no thoughts to reconcile

 

Flashes of brilliance fly past my eyes

To Light the thoughts that surround

The cool air of late evenings shadow sighs

Time to dream time to revel in delight

 

chorus

So come on and share your smiles with me

As we stumble past the broken signs

We’ll laugh until it stays away

And leave no thoughts to reconcile

 

On the beach running blindly towards the dawn

I fell back to the sand and all my thoughts were swept away  

 

Solo section

 

chorus

 

So come on and share your smiles with me

As we stumble past the broken signs

We’ll laugh until it stays away

And leave no thoughts to reconcile

 

 

 

Good Job

 

As life staggers down the road I wondered

When we could become the moment and love

Though the stars shine so brightly from the heavens

I know you'll be the sun that somehow fills the sky

 

And until that day I'll hold on hold on

 

It'll be my friends and memories

And it will be a love of my life

Yeah it'll be a heart full of youth

And my friends my friends and memories

 

Will you recall why hope defiantly lingers while I wonder

Why it is I deserve any love at all

Take me away won't you please steal me away

You'll be my remembrance of those lullabies

 

And until that day I'll hold on hold on

 

It'll be my friends and memories

And it will be a love of my life

Yeah it'll be a heart full of youth

And my friends my friends and memories

 

As life staggers on down the road I want you to remind me

Life's not lost but slowly gained

Hope me to ungleaned futures and guard my heart

                                                                                                             

Give me what I need all and all and always

                                                                                                                                               

It'll be my friends and memories

And it will be a love of my life

Yeah it'll be a heart full of youth

And my friends my friends and memories

Landings Lost

When sun light first fell

In that dim lit sanctuary

I could tell in these days

We’d find life less ordinary

 

I could see it in my soul felt prayer before bed

or that song dancing just dancing through my head

 

   Yeah I’d trade my life now to spring from

    these words into your arms and into your heart

 

Even when our landings lost I still feel close to you

 

 

You wrote me a poem once

Said these days weren’t just dreams in our minds

Said if “we” could stay together you and I would never have never no the other would have never been

 

    There’s a place behind my eyes where you’ll always reside

    If you ask me again I’d say it’s always been somewhere inside

 

behind my eyes you’ll always reside

always been there somewhere inside

It was mine for a moment but moments slip away

It was mine for a minute but minutes never stay

Son of Dust you know this to be true

Son of dust what will it take to get through….through to you
