Time to Change
05:37
|
|||
Comes a feeling comes a day something here it needs to change
With some healing in some way I won’t ever back away
Times a ticking pushing on what was once has come and gone
Change is sticking a new dawn laced up for this marathon
Time to change I want to like the me I know I can be
Time to change I want to see the me that I haven’t seen
I want the light the earth the sky the sea
I want something different better whatever
Time to change I want to try and cry and laugh and love and give and get I need to live
Who I was I couldn’t be what I was it wasn’t me
When it was is history so far so far
Who I am I’m finding out what I am is I’m on route
When I am is coming soon so far so far
There’s a calling that I hear the winds of change blow through my hair
A new morning I don’t fear everything has come so clear
Without warning rising high there’s a change I can’t deny
Desperate yearning don’t ask why my old self I now say goodbye
Time to change I want to like the me I know I can be
Time to change I want to see the me that I haven’t seen
I want the light the earth the sky the sea
I want something different better whatever
Time to change I want to try and cry and laugh and love I need to live

Pretty Woman
05:14
|

Saw her from across the bar glint in her eyes even from afar
Waited to see if she’s alone sipping her beer texting on the phone
Walked on over sat on the stool a corny line but nobody’s fool
Then I saw her glorious smile and knew we’d be together a while
Pretty Woman I want to be with you
Pretty Woman I dream of you at night
Pretty Woman Can’t wait to hold you again
Pretty Woman
Our first night was magical didn’t know she’s such an animal
Such a passion I hadn’t felt there was nothing I withheld
So soon came a second time changed my whole paradigm
This was a different life try not to think of my wife
Pretty Woman I want to be with you
Pretty Woman I dream of you at night
Pretty Woman Can’t wait to hold you again
Pretty Woman
What’s this call, what’s she saying
Why the shame, are you sexting
For how long, do you love her
What went wrong, to find another
Once or twice, does it matter
Are you proud, what you’ve shattered
A good fuck, you dumb bastard
Stupid fuck, see if I care now
What we have can never be with someone else even she
I was lost for a short time a life sentence for a drunken crime
Never took her in our bed never had her in my head
I see you now with new eyes want you always as my wife
Pretty Woman I want to be with you
Pretty Woman I dream of you at night
Pretty Woman Can’t wait to hold you again
Pretty Woman

Don't You See Me
05:59
|
|||
You sit next to me as we watch tv but I doubt you’re really here
When it ends I might say a word you don’t really hear—do—you--hear?
In our room its like separate beds close our eyes without a kiss
No affection or embrace and I wonder Do you see me?
Don’t you see me? Do you see me? Don’t you see?
I want to hold you tight
Just don’t squeeze so much
I want to love you right
Just don’t push your touch
I want to feel your life
Just don’t make me your crutch
I want to know we’re alive
Just don’t
You sit next to me as we watch tv I can feel your eyes on me
There’s times I don’t feel myself like I’m never free—are—you—free
In our room its like expectancy close my eyes just to take a breath
No acceptance or empathy and I wonder Do you see me?
Don’t you see me? Do you see me? Don’t you see?
I want to hold you tight
Just don’t squeeze so much
I want to love you right
Just don’t push your touch
I want to feel your life
Just don’t make me your crutch
I want to know we’re alive
Just don’t
You sit next to me as we watch tv don’t think I’m the bad guy
I so don’t want to lose you so I want to try won’t you try
In our room I feel all alone a relationship through absentee
I need and I know you need and I wonder Do you see me?
Don’t you see me? Do you see me? Don’t you see?
You sit next to me as we watch tv you are always asking why
It’s too overwhelming for me I want to cry won’t you try
In our room no sanctuary no expectations no third degree
I need and I know you need and I wonder Do you see me?
Don’t you see me? Do you see me? Don’t you see?
I want to hold you tight
Just don’t squeeze so much
I want to love you right
Just don’t push your touch
I want to feel your life
Just don’t make me your crutch
I want to know we’re alive
Just don’t

Healing in the Now
03:59

Healing in the now
Grieving from the past
Feeling so down
Dreaming of tomorrow
I know you and you know me and I know you know what can be
Needing what you have
Fearing our two ghosts
Breathing what you breathe
Seeking our tomorrow
I know you and you know me and I know you know what can be
Come take me somewhere
Lift me up let me share from you
Come take me anywhere
Show me that you still care
Show me, show me you still care
Healing in the now
Cleaning out the past
Keeping what we vow
Leading to tomorrow
I know you and you know me and I know you know what can be

Mama
06:46
|

I see her fingers in my hand
Little heartbeat against my skin
Her world every day expands
My world every day so thin
I see her lips on my breast
Her tongue tries to find sustenance
People tell me of how I’m blessed
In this house I feel so oppressed
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama I can’t be
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama How can I be
I see the wonder in her eyes
The needing wanting they symbolize
In mine the created me disguise
The person I don’t recognize
I see her cry and I relate
Our frustrations don’t abate
She needs and I abdicate
I’m resolved to my new fate
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama I can’t be
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama How can I be
I see her fingers in my hand
Fear and dread my contraband
Her world every day expands
My new world so unplanned
I see myself on a slippery slope
This is the way that I can cope
A dream in which I disrobe
I can see a glimmer of hope
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama I can’t be
Mama Oh oh mama I’m not mama How can I be

How Could You
04:59
|
|||
Thirty-two years ago born a small miracle
A sweet little girl made our lives so lyrical
I didn’t want that type of life wanted to be man and wife
A choice we made we followed through raise her right raise her true
How could you hurt us so hurt yourself just leave and go
How could you live in parts break your soul break our hearts
You thought you knew anything you could do
Lost false from truth and broke all our rules
Mom and I were so proud when you stood out from the crowd
Then you did some blow you chose not living right not living true
How could you hurt us so hurt yourself just leave and go
How could you live in parts break your soul break our hearts
Every day a little more we grieve what we adored
We always try to help but there’s never a reward
I lost my little girl so precious in this whole world
A choice you made we can’t persuade what is right what is true
How could you hurt us so hurt yourself just leave and go
How could you live in parts break your soul break our hearts

Butterfly
08:47
|

At dusk down a street the lights
Lead me on lead me to you
I walk while day becomes night
From a list I have to choose
See you sitting all by yourself
Pass you by I don’t know why
Meet another I am myself
Yet I can’t get you out of my mind
Fly Fly high My butterfly My butterfly
At dusk down a street the lights
Seek you out seek you and me
Wondering what is what might
How you can be free
Up the stairs is a room
Where you can spread your wings
Time for you to be and bloom
Flutter so you can do anything
Fly Fly high My butterfly My butterfly
The beginning is the end
The end thus begins
The top to the bottom
The bottom to the top
Go slow which makes it fast
Fast is never slow
The beginning is the end
The end thus begins
At dusk down a street the lights
Came alive for a few short days
Camouflage become the sights
As people keep on their way
The effect of the flaps
Of your wings on the earth
Lead to notions of perhaps
Until the day of your birth
Fly Fly high My butterfly My butterfly

One Foot Out
05:48
|

When the smiles oh so rare
When we love don’t you dare
When you cry so often do
When you shout because of you
We look back see pain hear laughs don’t maintain
We look back feel shame know a love we don’t attain
When the fear you shouldn’t have
When the hate what of love
When we hug feel it too
When we kiss its me and you
We look back see pain hear laughs don’t maintain
We look back feel shame know a love we don’t attain
One foot in one foot out
Do we know or do we doubt
One foot in one foot out
Stay or go
When the cat rightly mine
When the dog your canine
When the bed that we share
When the care don’t you dare
We look back see pain hear laughs don’t maintain
We look back feel shame know a love we don’t attain
One foot in one foot out
Do we know or do we doubt
One foot in one foot out
Stay or go

Never
04:34
|

And I want so much
And I feel too much
And I see too much
And I never never never
And I want the end
And I feel the end
And I see the end
And I never never never never
As I sit here I can feel it I don’t want it but it doesn’t ever ever go away
And it festers then I wonder and I can never seem to answer the question why
And I can’t hold back And I can’t hold back
I don’t want to hold back But going forward is something I can’t do
And I want so much
And I feel too much
And I see too much
And I never never never
And I want the end
And I feel the end
And I see the end
And I never never never never
The days don’t end they pass me by punch me in the face while they hypnotize
A rusty nail left in too long it grows a fungus it becomes unglued things become unglued
And I can’t hold back And I can’t hold back
I don’t want to hold back But going forward is something I can’t do
And I want so much
And I feel too much
And I see too much
And I never never never
And I want the end
And I feel the end
And I see the end
And I never never never never

My love
My love
What we have built
What we have shared
I know you so well and there’s still so much to learn
I know you so well and still my heart for you yearns
I have so many questions and we have so much time
I have so many answers for you
My love
My love
This is our life
This is our home
I feel the fondness for you as when we were young
My admiration for you is a song that is unsung
I see all that you do and appreciate your heart
I respect all that you do
I turn toward you and not away
I hear your worry so I stay
When you’re mad I know you more
When you’re sad I come in close
I hear your silence and sense your need
I see your joy I don’t impede
When you’re home and need a breath
Just relax and take a rest
You’re my lover but more my friend
When I smile its not pretend
Come together so positive
To support is what we live
Can’t abide by being negative
Not when there’s so much to give
I can do it if I tried
With you at my side
It hasn’t always been conflict free
It hasn’t always been so carefree
But when we disagree its not a monologue
When we hurt we don’t bring out the catalogue
When we debate it’s a dialogue
What’s your dreams? How do they come true? The one’s you had; the one’s that are new.
Live the extremes. Of play and of fun. We’ll do em all; every single one
What we’ll explore. For me and for you. It will happen if its something I can do
You’re my partner. My mate and my friend. Together we can transcend
We talked where we came from
We talked where we had been
We talked what we hoped for
We talked what we had seen
You know I trust you
trust that was built on years
knowing you would come through
the laughter and the tears
A life full of meaning
created along the way
A commitment to loving
each and every day
You’ve become my mentor
You’ve become my friend
A light in the darkness
Strength that I can depend
this is our house
sound as it can be
this is our life
A life of you and me
I know
I see
I know
I can be
With you
Safe now
With you
Stay sound
I know
I see
I know
You can be
Safe now
With me
Stay sound
With You and me
