/c'mon...run to me/ (from "care package" cd)
I sit here warm in my world
I could feel guilty,
or do something more than watch your pain on a T.V. screen
interrupted by the greedy seeking their green.
but I am just one man....will you ever reach my hand?
I will try everything I can to reach to your world
and be anything you need.
c'mon....run to me
though I'm here a world away
when I close my eyes I see faces of brothers and sisters I'll never know..I'll
never know
but I am just one man...will you ever reach my hand...
repeat chorus

/pumpkin patch heroes/
the 8 o'clock rain comes by, weaves a blanket
in the sky.
and we know, we'll fall asleep by the window.
take a walk to see the colors, floating from
so high
and we know, life is good in our window.
and we'll stay, soakin' up the day
in this harvest moonlight play
with our basket of gourds we'll drink a cup,
just another reason for getting up
with our basket of gourds we'll take the prize
show em' off for a day then just bake a pie
a squirrel scratchin' at the door
he's drinkin cider and scratchin' more,as
we go
lookin' in all of the windows
breathing in the spicy weather, see a stray
dog smile.
and he knows, we are pumpkin patch heroes
and we'll stay, soakin' up the day
in our harvest moonlight way.
with our basket of gourds we'll drink a cup
just another reason for gettin' up
with our basket of gourds we'll take the prize
show em off for a day then just bake a pie
with our basket of gourds it's looking up
we're pumpkin patch heroes,
with our basket of gourds we'll take the prize
show em' off for a day then just bake a pie.

/karma/ (from
acoustic cd "undressed" )
it's been so long, but I'm with me this time
I write my songs andtry to find the rhyme
in a world with so much in hiding,
we can look through haze and see some shiny
and sometimes something seems like nothing
good
but we aren't a mystery we can be all that
we need
if we just sit here and talk alone.
then we can see how much we have grown
we'll make a world we can live in
let's take a walk from nowhere to here
and sometimes my words sound words like they
are.
but we aren't a mystery we can be all that
we dream.

/lavender/ (new)
our garden gate never closes all the way.
a summer date, another hazy,shaded, play.
maybe see a butterfly chasing ants and dragonflies.
come out early in the day before the sun's
to high.
a cup of coffee maybe tea,
would you sit with me, no need to tell me what
you see.
we sit by the lavender and we are it's passengers
a butter-bee finds a sweet nectar stream.
I play with words, whoever heard of butter-bees.
wicker waitung for the wind, stays in place
for more somedays.
so we pass the time away, telling kiwi say
hi.
a cup of perfect english tea,
would you sleep with me,
no need to pay me this one's free.
we sit by the lavender and we are it's passengers.

/wishing down the rain(Peace now)/
(anti-war/bush song)
can you hear me? do I have a voice at all
does it matter when I say anything,or am I
just here to watch it all.
do you even know of peace, or is W.ar your
middle name
I'm sickened when you smile.
don't you feel the shame for what you've done
and even if you hear this song, and then step
up..you'd pronounce it wrong
so we try to stop the pain, wishing down the
rain
so we can wash heartache away
we are just the same, we can hold the flame
of LOVE it's always the way.
seems like we hear it everyday,
17 more, Killed in your name.
but those are just "casualties"
tell that to some child who says "where is
daddy?"
it's not a game
so we try to stop the pain, wishing down the
rain
so we can wash heartache away
we are just the same, we can hold the flame
of LOVE it's always the way.
as one more bomb is fallin", election day
is comin'
from that you can't run.
so we try to stop the pain, wishing down the
rain
so we can wash heartache away
we are just the same we can hold the flame
of LOVE it's always the way
please just go away....go to the ranch and
bale some hay...

/accidental harmony/
(NEW)
I've written every song, it really didnt take
that long
but i don't always follow through.
it's like a day begins and then just suddenly
ends,
where did all the time go.
can we just be like we're just beginning.
and accidentally beautiful
accidentally like a fool would do
I try to find a way to smile at least once
every day
just look for things that you don't see and
you could find the hidden beauty
like when you find an accidental harmony
it's accidentally beautiful
accidentally like a fool would do
accidentally beautiful
I will always be the fool for you
uh huh huh huh
this ain't like anything I've ever sang before,
I'm just sittin' here writing it down...well
not really I'm singin' it into a microphone
it's accidentally beautiful
accidentally I am just a foolI'm accidentally
a fool
I hope the fool will be with you
accidental harmony.....can sing to me.

/icicles, evergreens, and peace/ Christmas
song, to be released as single christmas "05"
icicles and evergreens, holly leaves for all
to see,
can we find peace under the tree.
christmas is the time of year that we send
love and our good cheer, to all of those we love and hold.
can we have a peaceful world now.
it's christmas time again.
a christmas wish for all the world is
icicles, evergreens, and peace.
can you hear a whisper in the cold night air,
it's love again,
and mistletoe tells us so.
christmas eve the snow is falling, decorations
on the tree mean so much now,
throw your arms around the world, keep christmas
in your soul.
it's christmas time again
a christmas wish for all the world is,
icicles, evergreens, and peace.

New Untitled as of 1/3/06 first verse and
chorus only
There's nothing more I can say
to make you see things a different way
there's meaning in all somedays, and we have
it all in our minds
there's nothing more than today, until you
see love's the only way.
and little things we do can lead us to truth.
if we believe in us.
but you pray to someone, you hope will set
you free, while I chant the mantra, I believe in love,and wisdom and peace
|
/raincoats/ (NEW)
when the wind blows in your face, take some
time and re-arrange,
just a little today.
can you see through the clouds, cause it's
your time to shine.
there's no one else in line...no no
no..
with shiny yellow raincoats we'll keep the
warm night in..
and forever..we're better for our raincoats,
and things we can't decide.
we're better for the raincoats, for all the
days they keep us dry
and so cries the sky.
when the rain gets in your eyes, for a moment
no disguise..oh..oh no
there's nothing the moon can do..
with shiny yellow raincoats, we'll keep the
warm night in..we'll talk about the weather, and us again.
do you hear me..well I can hear you ..and
everything you are...raincoat star.

moon pies and politics (NEW) (partial lyrics only)
it can seem like forever, then time flies
by
but times in a frame, it seems so amazing.....
we have grown.
yeah it can go anywhere, that we want it too
yeah it can go anywhere......yeah, yeah, yeah..
and we talked about it all
moon pies and politics...oh..why'd you call
we can't remember, but it doesn't matter...and
away we go..oh yeah
|
/drifting through/
(NEW) (partial lyrics only)
while they run around I keep my feet on the
ground,
right here.
they never look around to see what they've
got,
they're so lost.
does anybody know how to live , do they know
how to relate.
and so we're the ones tasting love
the world is ours to open up
I'm so glad I'm drifting through...with you
|
/we go on/ (new)
do you feel left behind everyday
listed everything, followed bright lights.
laid it on the table for all who comes to
see
and with you in this moment I will stay.
when it's all said and done
we go on
and when everything changed,
life's still the same changes.
different faces put on, day to day
in a room that's full,
and beside no one
different times and places can put you there
again
and with me through forever, you will stay
when it's all said and done we go on
and when everything changed life's still the
same changes.
