"A Big Kid's Christmas"

"A Big Kid's Christmas"


They're watching their kids
Watch their kids
Tearing open gifts
Hoping they remember everything
On everyone's list
Someone says hey grandma and grandpa
This ones for you
With a sparkle in their eyes
They get all excited
Like young children do

It's a big kids Christmas
For a grown up boy and girl
It's Jingle Bells and Silent Night
And Joy To The world

Deck the halls, O' Tanenbaum
And Oh Holy Night
It's a big kids Christmas tonight
And all the world is right

Grandpa says the blessing
As grandma bows her head
Dad now carves the turkey
And every one gets fed
Last night it was hard to sleep
Like so many years ago
So soon they're knapping on the couch
With Apple pie still left to go

It's a big kids Christmas
It's a big kids Christmas
And the worlds so right

"A Big Red Kite"

"A Big Red Kite"


I know I owe you a better time
Then the way that I've been
But something's messing with my mind
And it's not giving in

They say that I should want to be
A man who leads us all
But every time I look I see
Another leader fall.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to have
A big bank account
What Uncle Sam don't take from me
Man I don't need to count.

They say that I should want to stand
For what I don't believe
I'm sitting thinking to myself
What kind of man could leave.

"A Cowboy Afraid Of Horses"

"A Cowboy Afraid Of Horses"


I don't talk much
I don't have alot to say
So when it comes to a love life
It's hard to find a way
If it wasn't for bad luck
I'd have no luck at all
And so a woman like you
Backs me up to the wall

I feel like
A cowboy afraid of horses
Just like a sailor
Scared to death of the sea
Like a magician
With his hands tied behind him
That's how I feel
When you're around me

We go out somewhere
There are people staring at you
I feel strange inside
I don't know what to do
I never have had someone
Anyone else would want
But you handle it so well
You just act non-chalant

"A Day In The Life Of A Love"

"A Day In The Life Of A Love"


Hey baby, you're a beautiful lady
But I guess that you know it
You sure turn my head around
And I'm sure that I show it

If you'll take the chance on romance
When this dance is over
Maybe we could slide away
To a quieter place

This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
How could we ever know until we try
This could be a day in the life of a love
That could last forever
We'll surly make it last till morning light

What cha saw baby
Does it so to crazy
Well I just had to say it
When my heart speaks to me
I have to obey it

Why don't you say yes
And we'll make the best
Of the rest of the night

But then again
It might never end

"A Little Different"

"A Little Different"


Once upon my boyhood time
The circus came to town
I remember church going people
Talking the carnies down
Misfits of society
That's what they said to me
So I sneaked up close
And watched them work
And found that actually

They laughed alot
They sang out loud
The way they walked
Made them look kinda proud
A little different from you
A little different from me
Alot like the man who walked
Through Galilee

Mr. and Mrs. Goldstein
Moved in next door to us
The neighbors were indignant
They put up quit a fuss
The neighborhood had gone to pot
And they had worked so hard
So I sneaked out back
Peeked through the fence
And watched them do the yard

They laughed a lot
They sang out loud
They looked just like the rest
Of the crowd
A little different from you
A little different from me
A lot like the man who walked
Through Galilee

Everyone is different
But everyone's the same
Riding around in circles
On life's mysterious train

What if other people
Thought that way of you
Too weak for the circus
Too dumb to be a Jew
A plain old Joe
In wash 'n' wear suit
Wasting his life away
Or do they look in envy
And do or don't they say

"A Simple Man"

"A Simple Man"


Where do butterflies go when it rains?
Who goes around & tucks in the trains?
What makes a teddy bear like to sleep?
Why do we all make promises that we can't keep?

Where do puppy dogs go when their sad?
And what do elephants say when their mad?
Who do you tell if you don't have a friend?
Why do we open our mouths and stick our foot in?

These are the things that bother me,
Not a lot of things across some sea,
I don't even have a master plan,
I guess that I am just a simple man.

Where do robins sleep on the road?
And how can a little ant carry that load?
Why write words that we have to erase?
Why does everyone have more than one face?

"Ace"

"Ace"


It hardly seems a long time just a minute of the day
When the man who stood beside me more than gave himself away
The food stain on his spotted shirt a gray beard on his face
A man composed of many names so I just called him Ace

Ace can't read and Ace can't write and
He sleeps on a bench at night
A little man the world has left behind
He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
Makes his living on the street
Never knowin' what he's gonna find

Born in Mississippi pickin' cotton as a child
Left soon for the city where he heard that life was wild
That was fifty years ago when nothin's really strange
From a poor dirt farm to dirty streets is really not much change

Ace can't read and Ace can't write and
He sleeps on a bench at night
A little man the world has left behind
He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
Makes his living on the street
Never knowin' what he's gonna find

Go back to the country no he really can't do that
Wasted years have left him nothin' but an old straw hat
So he puts it on his head and waves a last good-bye
With no time left to turn around and no time to ask why

Ace can't read and Ace can't write and
He sleeps on a bench at night
A little man the world has left behind
He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
Makes his living on the street
Never knowin' what he's gonna find

This old world has left poor Ace behind

"Afterglow"

"Afterglow"


I hold your hand and feel your fingers shaking
I wonder what is going through your mind
The only sound we hear is each other breathing
And I can tell we're starting to unwind

You're starring at the painting by the window
And I know that your mind is far away
I reach for you and you move even closer
That makes it easy cos words are hard to say

Afterglow just keeps coming
Lying here with you
Afterglow my mind keeps running
Through a fantasy for two
We both know there's no other
Feeling that makes our love grow
Like love's afterglow

You turn now you're looking into my eyes
I see you like I never could before
I hear you making sounds that say I love you
With everything we do I love you more

"All For The Love Of A Girl"

"All For The Love Of A Girl"


Well today I'm so weary
Today I'm so blue
Sad and broken hearted
And it's all because of you

Life was a sweet girl
Live was a song
But now you've gone and left me
Tell me where did I go wrong

And it's all for the love
Of a dear little girl
All for the love
That sets my life in a whirl

I'm a man who'd give his life
And the joys of this world
All for the love of a girl
