Never Lonely
I was lost
We were young
I couldn’t stay I couldn’t run
You found the me I didn’t know
You held me tight
We never let go.
Sing it sing it loud
Sing it low
Sing it like
The Long and Winding Road
Listen to the hush
Listen for the cheers
I’m never lonely knowing you are here
It’s your love
that kept me sane
Kept me dry in the pouring rain
We kissed the moon
and kicked the sky
Our love is ours
yours and mine
Sing it sing it loud
Sing it low
Sing it like
The Long and Winding Road
Listen to the hush
Listen for the cheers
I’m never lonely knowing you are here
Sweetness
If I knew I’d never see you again
I’d take a perfect photo of your face
If I knew this was the last song for us
I would dance you all over the place
I would sing and shout
And swing you all about
We’d celebrate all day and all night
The sweetness you brought into my life
If knew I’d never hear your voice again
I’d record every word in my head
If I knew your words and laugh were gone
I’d put music to everything you said
I would sing and shout
And swing you all about
We’d celebrate all day and all night
The sweetness you brought into my life
If I knew I’d never kiss your lips again
Oh, I’d kiss them until we couldn’t breathe
If I knew I’d never feel your skin on mine
I would hold on so you couldn’t leave
I would sing and shout
And swing you all about
We’d celebrate all day and all night
The sweetness you brought into my life
Nice to Meet You
Tell me the story of your life
I’ll tell you mine it might take all night
I have known you for a thousand years
Nice to meet you my dear
I jumped around from town to town
Joined the army to turn around
I couldn't find what was under my nose
Someone said that’s just how it goes
Made my way down to New Orleans
Got propositioned by a nighttime queen
She said come on and follow me
I said no thank you my dear
Took off for LA in my pickup truck
Stopped in Vegas and ran out of luck
A one-eyed jack took every single buck
Lights in my rearview mirror
Tell me the story of your life
I’ll tell you mine if it takes all night
I have known you for a thousand years
Nice to meet you, my dear
Nice to meet you, my dear
Tin Cup
Sitting outside the Hard Rock
With a tin cup in my hand
Drop in a quarter
To see if I will stand
I don’t dance on strings
Or wobbly things
There isn’t much here
When you look closely
Faces pass by
Like old and new cars
Not showing the dings in their fenders
Some are happy
Others in pain
Sadness seeks refuge in smiles
I just dropped my lucky penny
Watched it roll inside toward the band
Sitting outside the Hard Rock
With a tin cup in my hand
Thinking About You
Summer days
Fully dazed
How young we were
Confused for sure
Moon and stars
Grassy yards
As stiff as stone
All alone
Thinking about you
I knew the way
I knew the crime
You pulled me back
Just in time
You pulled me back
Just in time
War was on
Vietnam
Kids in boxes
Wailing moms
Thinking about you
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
Thinking about you
You’re as warm as summer rain
The light that kept me sane
The reverie I do is thinking about you
Windy city
Bryn Mawr Ave
All we took
Is all we had
Drunken toad
Dead on the road
Resurrected
Head to toe
Resurrected
Head to toe
Headed south
Like a bird in Fall
Old age running
Toward the mall
On the street
Round the bend
Love is here
Like it’s always been
Love is here
Like it’s always been
You’re as warm as summer rain
The light that kept me sane
The reverie I do is
Thinking about you
Soft rain
In your summer eyes
Playing slow
Deep inside
Thinking about you
At First Sight
I don’t know you
But I know you
That’s all I need to know
A smile as warm as sunshine
I’ll take it everywhere I go
I can’t see tomorrow
Can’t see that far away
There is starlight in your windows
There’s moonlight on the bay
Be with me
Stay with me
Darling darling
Stay with me
I don’t know you
But I love you
A storm’s growing in our eyes
We’ll make our love like a hurricane
Blowing strong into our lives
I can’t see tomorrow
Can’t see that far away
There is starlight in your windows
There’s moonlight on the bay
Be with me
Stay with me
Darling darling
Stay with me
Can You See Me
Waiting on every corner
Dreaming dreaming of your face
Hoping
For tomorrow
With yesterday back in its place
Can you see me
Standing like a statue in the rain
Waiting for your face to appear
Do you see me here
Can you feel me
When the darkness closes its back door
When I can't quite take anymore
Do you feel me
Do you feel me at all
Fading into a stranger
Singing
Another song
Knowing how I love you
It’s been your face all along
Can you see me
Standing like a statue in the rain
Waiting for your face to appear
Do you see me here
Can you feel me
When the darkness closes its back door
When I can't quite see you anymore
Do you feel me do you feel me at all

Everything Reminds Me of You
Long time since yesterday
Don’t know what I’d say
If I ever saw you again
Searched every street in town
Cafes and holy ground
You’re the only one I ever knew
Everything reminds me
Everything reminds me
Yes, everything reminds me of you
Slide over darlin’
I can’t start the engine
Till we say goodbye
You walked away slowly
Didn’t tell me you were going
I looked up with no time to cry
Long time since you’ve been gone
Never knew what went wrong
I just want to see you again
Searched every street in town
Cafes and holy ground
You’re the only one I ever knew
All the words have been playing
Like an old Dylan tune
Everything reminds me of you
I’ll always be here
Standing where you left me
With all this weight on my heart
Always feels lonely
Singing to the faithful
I still see your face in the dark
Everything reminds me
Everything reminds me
Everything reminds me of you
10,000 Tears
It felt like the Earth had broken in two
When we said goodbye
The bottom had made its way up to the top
Right before our eyes
You’re the beginning and end that I see
I’m in the car on the phone
I can’t even cry this time
All alone
10,000 tears dust and gone
10,000 tears
The rain don’t care now
10,000 tears
All gone wrong
10,000 tears
Wash off tomorrow
10,000 tears dust and gone
I think my soul is running away
The sadness spills out so slow
I’m afraid to just open my eyes
Can’t stay with nowhere to go
You’re the beginning and end that I see
I’m in the car on the phone
I can’t even cry this time
10,000 tears dust and gone
10,000 Tears cont.
10,000 tears
The rain don’t care now
10,000 tears
All gone wrong
10,000 tears
Wash off tomorrow
10,000 tears
Dust and gone
10,000 Tears cont.
10,000 tears
Wash off tomorrow
10,000 tears
Dust n gone
I’ve never been a big Country and Western fan outside Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, etc., but this sad Country tune popped out and evolved. It puzzled me where it came from. Then I remembered this old tune my mom liked called “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry” — by Hank Williams. Well, I knew Hank was a C&W legend and I got interested in him and watched a YouTube bio. His music was a product of Black blues music. A Black dude taught him to play. He wrote 167 songs. Artists like Nora Jones, Ray Charles, Dylan and many others have recorded his songs. He died when he was only 30 in 1953.
Your Song Won’t Write Itself
Your song won’t ever write itself
Ain’t gonna write itself
You can’t play it on Pandora
You can’t buy it off the shelf
It ain’t gonna write itself
So, write it on every empty wall
Write on the floor and in the hall
Write it on your way out the door
Write it til you can’t write anymore
Your song won’t ever write itself
Ain’t gonna write itself
You can’t play it on pandora
You can’t buy it off the shelf
It ain’t gonna write itself
Write it with your fingers and your toes
Write it til everybody knows
Write it if you go or if you stay
Love’s gonna love you anyway
Write with the dreams you believe
Write it every time you breathe
Write it with your joy and your pain
You won’t be back this way again
Write with the dreams you believe
Write it every time you breathe
Write it with your joy and your pain
You won’t be back this way again
Rooster
There’s a backroad I dream about
Wanna get out there to twist n’ shout
I want to feel it like a punch in the mouth
Come on come on come on come on
You look like something I used to dig
Don’t just stand there like Mr. big
I’ll put my vinyl on and start to sing
Come on come on come on come on come on
Where have you been hiding
Turn off that phone
The lights are out in the pool hall
The rooster he’s limpin’ on home
Now you’re back with the same old face
You start strutting all over the place
You want first but this isn’t a race
Come on come on come on come on come on
There’s nothing left but you still want more
There is a blanket in the bottom drawer
You sound like a mouse trying to roar
Come on come on come on come on come on
Where have you been hiding
Turn off that phone
The lights are out in the pool hall
The rooster he’s limpin’ on home
Yes he is
There’s a backroad I dream about
Wanna get out there to twist n’ shout
I want to feel it like a punch in the mouth
Come on come on come on come on come on
Turtle Blues
I’ve got those turtle blues
And I’m movin’ mighty slow
I’m stuck inside my hard shell
Don't know which way to go
I turned all my lights on
But there’s nobody home
Went down to the corner
To grab myself a beer
Got down to the corner
And no one was there
I’m standing on the outside
Just wishing you were here
Walked down on state street
And it started to snow
Walking down state street
Met a woman named Jo
I asked her where she’s going
And she told me where to go
I’ve got those turtle blues
And I’m movin’ mighty slow
Stuck inside my hard shell
Don't know which way to go
I Turned all my lights on
But there’s nobody home
I’ve got those lowdown, mid-town, mess around, slowdown,
turtle blues
Magic
Could I could I dance with a flower in my darkest hour
To see my way through
And could I
Could I walk on the sand
Would the sea understand
I’m all covered in blue
As many times as I’ve been down I’ve been back up again
Standing with wonder in my eyes
The only thing I really know
Is just how fast it goes
This magic this magic of life
I will I will feel the sway in the very same way
As I did once before
And I will I will dance with a flower
And sing out louder than ever before
As many times as I’ve been down I’ve been back up again
Standing with wonder in my eyes
The only thing I really know
Is just how fast it goes
This magic this magic of life
And I have I have danced with a flower
And sang out louder
Than ever before
But the only thing I really know
Is just how fast it goes
This magic this magic of life
Hold On
There's no pictures
There's no shelves and no walls
There's nothing left standing inside the great hall
Except the promise we made
The poems are there in the palm of your hand
Squeeze 'em tight
And try to understand
That I love you
And hang on to your memories
They might be the only things
That ever keep you sane
Hold on tight and always know
It's the only way that I can be
Wherever you will go
There's no movie
There's no book and no ground
There's no proof we ever made a sound
Where did our time go
Drive back to the park and spend an hour or two
Do that for us if it's the last thing you do
Cause I’m waiting there
And hang on to your memories
They might be the only things
That ever keep you sane
Hold on tight and always know
It's the only way that I can be wherever you will go
Yes, it's the only way that I can be wherever you will go
We Are Love (song)
We are love
We are children
We are seeds from stars above
We were made to love each other
Come on people, we are love
We are, we are love
We are we are love
Guns are gods on the altar
Sacrifices must be made
Sandy Hook to Columbine
Trigger fingers digging graves
Fill breadbaskets with dead children
The metal gods must be fed
How much blood will it take
Before the wailing turns your head
We are, we are love we are we are love
Greed is bad
So feed the hungry
Hatred eats away the soul
We are all the same religion
Breathe the love that makes you whole
Stop the bombs
Stop the terror
Stop the rage at home tonight
Imagine all our children
Living safe in peace and light
We are, we are love we are, we are love
We are
Happy is on Me
Happy is on me
I’m not sure exactly why
Happy just hopped on board
I’m gonna take a little ride
Don’t know how I got this old
that boy in here don’t care
Last night we sang our tunes
Your voice was soft and bare
My headphones have stopped working
You’re in them anyway
Gonna slip you on
And smile through the day
Happy is on me
And you’re the reason why
Happy just hopped on board
Gonna take a little ride
When my words lose their meaning
When my knocking doesn’t rhyme
Your door swings wide-open
And we dance away the time
Happy is on me
And you’re the reason why
Happy just hopped on board
Gonna take a little ride
Happy is on Me cont.
Happy is on me
And you’re the reason why
Happy just hopped on board
Gonna take a little ride
Happy is on me
Love is the reason why
Happy just hopped on board
Gonna take a little ride
Gonna take a little ride
Gonna take a little ride
Gonna take…
A…
little …
Hard To Tell
7 angry children in the middle of the road
Shabby little prophets
Hungry and bold
They’ve got one foot in heaven
One in hell
It looks like they’re praying
But it's hard to tell
Looks like they’re praying
But it's hard to tell
2 fallen angels singing in the wings
Second-hand statues
Trying to get in
They've got one foot in heaven
Two in hell
It looks like they're crying
But it's hard to tell
Looks like they're crying
But it's hard to tell
There’s a thin place calling at half past 12
Should I buy
Or should I sell
I’m 10 steps from heaven
One from hell
Seems like the long way
But it's hard to tell
Seems like the long way
But it's hard to tell
Lord almighty it’s so hard to tell
I Can’t Love You Anymore
I’ve been a soldier for your love
I’ve given
Given every drop of blood
Been in the trenches
Gone door to door
But I can’t love you any more
I can’t love you any more
Love you forever there’s no cure
Lost all the battles
Lost every war
I can’t love you any more
You’re not here and you’re not a dream
One more whisper
One more whisper and I’ll scream
Songs I have written
Are shredded on the floor
Cause I can’t love you any more
I didn’t realize that I died
Should have seen it in your eyes
I’m just another body
That washed up on the shore
I can’t love you any more
I can’t love you any more
Love you forever there’s no cure
Lost all the battles
Lost every war
I can’t love you any more
Put Your Love On
Take off your face
Put it under your chair
Your poison breath is wilting the air
The scowl you’ve been drinking
Isn’t what you’re made of
Take off your blinders
And put on your love
Take off your banner
Take off your sway
Take your bullets and throw them away
Take off your trousers
All splattered with blood
Scrub off the hate and put on your love
Take off your Christian
Take off your Jew
Take off your Islam
Your atheist too
Take off your cloak all covered in mud
Take off those beads
And put on your love
Put your love on
Take off that hat
Take off your seethe
Howling at rainbows is no way to breathe
Strip yourself naked
With black and brown gloves
It feels like peace when you put on your love.
Put that love on
The Place Where Love Is
Deep inside who we are
Is a gift from an unknown star
The place
Where love is
Anger won’t scream and shout
It gets in but it can’t get out
Of the place
Where love is
So let it be love
Let it be peace
Let it be kindness
Let it be us
Let it be love
Let it be peace
Let it be kindness
Let it be us
Truth is the only sound
When love is all around
In the place
Where love is
Hate will destroy your soul
To survive you must go
To the place
Where love is
So let it be love
Let it be peace
The Place Where Love Is cont.
Let it be kindness
Let it be us
Let it be love
Let it be peace
Let it be kindness
Let it be us
You can't buy your way inside
The door is open wide
To the place
Where love is
Do unto others now
Kindness will show you how
In the place
Where love is.
So, let it be love
Let it be peace
Let it be kindness
Let it be us
Let it be love
Let it be peace
Let it be kindness
Let it be us

i’m just shadow figure walking in the rain
Wheelchair Blues
I’m not your inspiration
Destination
Don’t worry
You’re better off that way
This chair is about my freedom
Stop and see ‘em
Don’t count yourself so lucky
That you’re you
And you’re not me
Don’t need pity
I didn’t ask you
Don’t want pity
I’m not your Tiny Tim
Keep your pity
I’m not an angry cripple
Keep your pity
I’m not your glass of gin
My shoes will never fit you
Lift or equip you
Your end doesn’t start here
I’m not dead and I’m not gone
Don’t need pity
I didn’t ask you
Don’t want pity
I’m not your Tiny Tim
Keep your pity
I’m not an angry cripple
Wheelchair Blues cont.
Keep your pity
I’m not your glass of gin
I am very much alive here
Survived and thrived here
Don’t count yourself so damn lucky
That you’re you
And you’re not me
Don’t need pity
I didn’t ask you
Don’t want pity
I’m not your Tiny Tim
Keep your pity
I’m not an angry cripple
Keep your pity
I’m not your glass of gin
Color of Midnight
There’s no color left in midnight
I can’t remember the light of day
The clock on the wall isn’t moving at all
The darkness is here to stay
Every shadow looks at me like it knows me
Each tear tortures my heart
Without my lover there is no color
No, no color left in midnight
I cry till I don't care
Reach through the midnight air
My next breath is going insane
Midnight whispers her name
I'm on this wheel till morning
Blaming it on what I said that night
There’s nowhere to go inside this black hole
There’s no color left in midnight
I cry till I don't care
Reach through the midnight air
My next breath is going insane
Midnight whispers her name
I cry till I don't care
Reach through the midnight air
My next breath is going insane
Midnight whispers her name
There’s no color left in midnight

This is a tough subject. Lately, people have been dying around me left and right from all sorts of causes. The song started as a defense mechanism to all that. I created a Halloween video to mask its depressive vibe. The video is on YouTube. Boo!
Open Your Door
What if I said my eyes are closed lookin' at your smile
What if I said the wine sits here
It's been sitting for a while
And what if I said I’m lonely
And I can't go on like this
What if I said I search for you
In the sunshine and the mist
And what if I said I’m bleeding
From the ceiling to the floor
What if I said that
Would you still not open your door
What if I said I need you you're the air that I breathe
What if I said my dreams of you
Are the dreams that I believe
And what if I said my memories
Are all that keep me sane
What if I said I miss your lips
I want to kiss them again
And what if I said I’m bleeding
From the ceiling to the floor
What if I said that
Would you still not open your door
Yes what if I said I’m bleeding
From the ceiling to the floor
And what if said I’m sorry
I should have loved you more
What if I said that
Would you still not open your door
Come to Me
in my quiet time, you come to me
when the night needs fire, you come for me
under the willow's smile, you come to me
for miles and miles, you come for me
yeah, we feel the same, don't we?
we play the game, don't we?
we love the rain now don't we?
cause there's nowhere else to go
and if the demon screams, i will come to you
when the serpent gleams, i will come for you
whisper my name, and i'll come to you
be it pleasure or pain, i will come for you
yeah, we feel the same, don't we?
we play the game, don't we?
we love the rain now don't we?
cause there's nowhere else to go
saint in white satin
bitch in leather black
you're my cinderella
and i'll come for you
in a far off place, you will come for me
in your tight embrace, i will come for you
yeah, we feel the same, don't we?
don't we
don't we
Sometimes
She left me a long time ago
The trees aren't as green as they were
I don't walk in the park anymore
It makes me think about her
So sometimes I burst out cryin’
Sometimes I stare at the wall
Sometimes I go out and scream at the sun
Sometimes I feel nothin’ at all
So whattaya do when you lose your best friend
Who you gonna call in the night
Where is that switch that turns me into me
Who's gonna make it alright
Sometimes I burst out cryin’
Sometimes I stare at the wall
Sometimes I go out and scream at the sun
Sometimes I feel nothin’ at all
Morning falls into shadow
I'm sitting in the dark at home
I know I’ll never see you again
I've got to do this alone
Sometimes I burst out cryin’
Sometimes I stare at the wall
Sometimes I go out and scream at the sun
Old Man
There’s an old man sitting on a rock by a stream
He’s got one foot in the water trying to wash it clean
He’s dreaming he’s a cowboy riding with the wind
He keeps looking behind but no one’s after him
There he goes… there he goes…there he goes
He grew up watching cowboys Matt Dillon on TV
Rowdy was his hero the range it should be free
His foot’s a little better the water’s fast and cold
He should have been a cowboy but now he’s too damn old
There he goes… there he goes … there he goes
If God is the thunder and Jesus is the light
He’s spent a thousand lifetimes trying to get it right
And he thinks about his lover and he thinks about that night
When she climbed so far inside of him he almost lost his mind
There he goes… there he goes… there he goes
Repeat verse two and three
There he goes
There he goes
There he goes
Again and Again
You’re softer than a morning kiss
The summer in my day
You’re the reason for each breath I take
The laughter in my veins
I did nothing to deserve you
I didn’t know how to try
Your love came in soft and bright
And lit me up inside
It was you in the beginning
It is you in the end
Again and again again again and again
You’re a flower garden rainbow
A movie in black-and-white
You’re a mythological hero
A secret in the night
I did nothing to deserve you
I didn’t know how to try
Your love came in soft and bright
And lit me up inside
It was you in the beginning
It is you in the end
Again and again again again and again
It was you in the beginning
It is you in the end
Again and again again again and again
What Have I Done with My Life
What have I done with my life
How did I get here so soon
That boy in the mirror
He sees me clearer
Than anyone else in the room
And what have I done with my heart
She is the breeze inside of me
Love is all that we keep
Why we laugh and we weep
The rest gets washed out to sea.
I was never a devil or saint
Didn’t always do the best I could
I stood and I fell
And I loved you like hell
In the end that’ll stand as it should
If this is really all that there is
What a beautiful ride
My friends are all true
Couldn’t have done it without you
All standing there by my side
So when you think of me like yesterday
Celebrate that boy in the man
He was a song
That God jotted down
So sing it as best as you can
What Have I Done with My Life cont.
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Halle Halle Halle
Halle Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Halle Halle Halle Halle Hallelujah
Repeat Chorus
These final hallelujahs were sung by our whole family: Cindy, Stacey, Shani, Jim, Alex, Paul, and me. Dave Nye put it together. I start and then Cindy comes in with her wonderful voice and then everyone. Makes me cry when I listen.
