"Sailing"

"Sailing"


I am sailing, I am sailing,
Home again 'cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.

I am flying, I am flying,
Like a bird 'cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
To be with you, to be free.

Can you hear me, can you hear me
Thro' the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.

Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Thro' the dark night far away.
I am dying, forever trying,
To be with you, who can say.

We are sailing, we are sailing,
Home again 'cross the sea.
We are sailing stormy waters,
To be near you, to be free.

Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free.
Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free,
Oh Lord.

"Samantha Elizabeth"

"Samantha Elizabeth"


Samantha Elizabeth, you're on my mind
Samantha Elizabeth, all of the time
You keep me dreaming
Only of you
And oh, I'm stuck on you
I'm stuck on you
Oh

Samantha Elizabeth, the questions you ask
Samantha Elizabeth, you're growing up fast

You are my everything
My heart, my home
You taught me everything
I've ever known

"San Francisco Bay"

"San Francisco Bay"


Maybe I'm a loner,
Maybe I'm a man,
Maybe I'm a fool,
But tried to understand.
I've been a dreamer,
And I've been around,
And I've spent my time
In many lonesome towns.

I used to know a woman,
I used to know a child,
Sometimes she was so gentle,
Sometimes she'd be so wild.
I gave her all my lovin,
And I gave her all my youth,
So certain of the future,
So sure we found the truth.

San Francisco Bay,
Where my love and I did run away,
We were looking for another day,
But we couldn't find the words to say...
San Francisco Bay,
All the flowers that we gave away,
Didn't know our sky was turning gray,
We were so young in San Francisco Bay.

So you see my darling,
Just why I've been so strange,
I've had so many heartaches,
It's hard for me to change.
So when you talk of lovin,
And going away with me,
I still can't help remembering
The way things used to be...

San Francisco Bay,
Where my love and I did run away,
We were looking for another day,
But we couldn't find the words to say...
San Francisco Bay,
All the flowers that we gave away,
Didn't know our sky was turning gray,
We were so young in San Francisco Bay.

San Francisco Bay,
Where my love and I did run away,
We were looking for another day,
But we couldn't find the words to say...
San Francisco Bay,
All the flowers that we gave away,
Didn't know our sky was turning gray,
We were so young in San Francisco Bay.

"Scream You Guitar"

"Scream You Guitar"


I worshiped you
treasured you
Drove my soul inside of you
Dreamed a dream for me and you
It's turned into a nightmare
And like a drug
I can't break loose
I've died a million times for you
And like a leech you suck from me
the hope, the strength left in me
My sanity still clings to me
I've bared my soul for all to see
sold my very history
A song to please the nation
I turn my frown to dancing clown
sing my songs, turn on the charm
To earn some love, to keep me warm
My guitar plays for you
So scream you guitar
Scream for my pain
Cry for your share of this fortune and fame
Scream you guitar
Scream for the shame
You cannot escape your share of the blame
Yet still I find this need in me
to prove myself to all who see
that I am what I dreamed I'd be
and I will live forever
at center stage I'll take my place
Emotion drawn upon my face
My guitar slung around my waist
I'm here to play for you
So scream you guitar...

"Shy Guy"

"Shy Guy"


When you look my way
girl I'd like to say
that I've found somebody to love
But how can I tell you that I do
you know it's true
Nearly all the time
girl you're on my mine
And I can't stop thinking of you
I wish there was something I could do
what can I do

You're breaking me up
You're bringing me down
Sometimes I see no sense in hanging around

though it should be easy,
just to talk to you
and I know there's nothin' to lose
But you're somethin' special in my eyes
In my eyes

You're breaking me up...

Like I said before, you know I love you more
Every time I see your face
Better take my chance, before it's too late
It's too late

You're breaking me up...

"Something's Been Making Me Blue"

"Something's Been Making Me Blue"


Love has shaken me, sometimes mistaken me,
This time it's making me hide,
Love has told on me then got a hold on me,
Followed my heart to my pride.

But something's been making me blue,
And somehow I can't talk it over with you
Something's been making me sad,
Something I'm missing that I never had,
And I know what's making me blue,
Is losing you.

Love was a game you played, a mistake I made,
Never found it on time,
I thought love was alive again, then it died again,
Leavin' me wondering why.

But something's ben making me blue,
And somehow I can't talk it over with you
Something's been making me sad,
Something I'm missing that I never had,
And I know what's making me blue,
Is losing you.

What is this feeling that keeps you revealing your pride,
Why don't you listen, you can't reminisce on the times that she loved you and lied.

I know, but love was so real to me, how does it feel to be
Tellin' yourself it's a lie
But now love's got me wondering, got me fumbling,
Got me stumbling by.

But something's ben making me blue,
And somehow I can't talk it over with you
Something's been making me sad,
Something I'm missing that I never had,
And I know what's making me blue,
Is losing you.

"Sometimes You Cry"

"Sometimes You Cry"


When you're going round in circles
And your head is for the rage
When you're fighting for a reason
Trying to turn another page
There's no hope in what you're doing
Try to reach another high
When your friends have gone and left you
Left you out to dry
In the memories they haunt you;
In the dark and in the light
From the jungle of the daytime
Till the jungle of the night
In the passion you're the moonlight
To the dawning of daylight
Oh, we see they try and loot you
It's a beard shoot fight.

Sometimes you cry
Sometimes you think it's not world wide
You're losing your sleep
You're losing your mind

In the days that went before you,
You could open any door
But the time run out of papers
And you don't work anymore
Get a hold of all your dreaming
Take them all down from the shelf
Turn your face toward the mirror
Then you'll see your real self

Sometimes you cry
Sometimes you think it's not world wide
You're losing your sleep
You're losing your mind

It's the real time in the real world
Take your feelings with some fright
Have spirit have some passion ghost
When spirit's gone you die
When this passion faces has gone from you
You'll end up wondering why
such a foolish thing could happen
Take your wings and start fly

Sometimes you cry
Sometimes you think it's not world wide
You're losing your sleep
You're losing your mind

Sometimes you cry
Sometimes you think it's not world wide
You're losing your sleep
You're losing your mind

"Songs"

"Songs"


Sing your songs out on the water
Echoes lively all around
Paint the sky with words of wisdom
Bring us back to solid ground.

Can I ask you where it came from
Will you tell me just the same
Thick and fast the sound it takes me
Throw your bars the song remains.

Celestial choirs that break my vision
Choral angels spread the sound
Paint the sky with words of wisdom
Bring us back to solid ground
Bring us back to solid ground.

"Steppin' On Seashells"

"Steppin' On Seashells"


Through the shadows of the night
I hear your lonely voice calling
Echo's from a distant land
So near yet so far away
with the sunset in your eyes
A darkness came without warning
ahh, you took me by surprise
and left me falling like rain
whenever I need love, I close my eyes
whenever I see love, I look to the skies
Don't go steppin' on seashells,
you'll only get hurt
Don't go steppin' on seashells,
there's a lesson to learn
Don't go steppin' on seashells
Don't go steppin' on seashells
Steppin' on seashells
Steppin' softly through the years
Feeling empty and cold
Lost behind a sea of tears
Burns a heartfull of gold
Whenever I need love, i close my eyes
whenever I see love, I look to the skies
Don't go steppin' on seashells,..
whenever I need love, I close my eyes
Whenever I see love, I look to the skies
Don't go steppin' on seashells,...

"Still The One"
(originally by Shania Twain)

"Still The One"
(originally by Shania Twain)



When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time, you're still the one I love

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We might took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life

(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life

(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

You're still the one
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life

(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
