Song Lyrics

Although this blog is primarily for sharing stories, I will always be writing songs. Some of these in here are fairly new (and I’ll also post any brand-new songs as I write them) but most are old songs never before produced or recorded… yet.

4/10/18: Almost Gone

  We were so close I couldn’t see That everything was wrong I studied you now over me Myself and I went on and on On into the rest of life And love where they belong At least until they come again What’s left is almost gone Gone Did we ever have to go Gone [...]

3/23/18: Karaoke

Another Monday night was going on. Next door someone was singing Karaoke songs You tried to make the best of it You tried to work it through A lesser man might’ve lost it but oh no not you But you can tell a story And you can turn a phrase on its end And you [...]

3/13/18: In The Night

  In the night In the middle of the night I get up to take a piss And I wonder How did things get to be like this I know Change, change is the only thing That goes It goes and goes and I have to sit down Before I go In the night In [...]

3/8/18: Lookin’ Up

  Looking up, to see the signs. See what changes, see what’s mine Not too far it’s crystal clear Some of the things I’ve held dear Going by the way side All that kept my heart fried Been looking down for far too long Focused on what’s big and strong Fooled by love, fooled by [...]

2/20/18: I Want More

  It’s a small crowd No need to sing loud And a spotlight is shining on me The sound is just right I’m not tense or up-tight But though I’m feeling good I know could be A whole lot more Some of you here are close friends And I would like to commend you For [...]

2/18/17: I’m One of “Them” (Channeling the “Other Side”)

I’m one of “those people” I’m one of “them” I’m one of those “other” people Could you ever call me friend? I’ve got a whole lot of opinions You’re on the other end I've spent a lifetime defending them They do not easily bend It’s almost like I’m from another planet So much different from [...]

2/15/18: Slow-Cookin’ Chili Sauce

I can feel it burn Smacking my lips And the caldron churns As I wiggle my hips Yea... it’ll make you move It’ll get you hot Like the kind of grove You just can’t stop Bubble and burp Burble and bop Simmer and slurp Slither and slop Slow-cookin’ Chili Sauce Slow-cookin’ Chili Sauce Slow-cookin’ Chili [...]

2/11/18: Song for Jackie

  I see the blue skies above me, and the sun it does shine. As the green grass below caress these happy feet of mine And the breath of life within me fills my heart and blows my mind Like a song Like a song I hear the birds sing the melody as the ocean plays [...]

2/5/18: Another Day

  Another day another time Another way you know da kine I have a name I have a sou But in my heart is a gaping hole Another weak and tortured mind And day by day I tow the line, I tow the line A half a brain is all I need A half a [...]

2/4/18: Homesick

  Wouldn’t I know after all that I’d been through And wouldn’t it show if there was something I could do I think that I must be blind or maybe just a fool To think I could go so far from you Living my life as if the world weren’t a part of me And [...]
