Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Hoping the days don’t fade away
Before the kids have a say
The power to understand
Lay in their hand
They’re looking out for all of us
Making the world more fabulous
They’re looking out for all of us
Giving faith to Miraculous

Hoping my days don’t slip away
Before the children make way (make way!)
The power to understand
Is at their command
They’re looking out for all of us
Making the world more fabulous
They’re looking out for all of us
Giving faith to Miraculous

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new way to see ultraviolet… x-ray
A knew way to be
A non-violent all day

As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new way to live
Carefree freewill
A knew way to give
Start the heart we will

As we start to round the bend
To The End
I begin to see how we’ll begin
Again
A new entity
Collective our soul
A knew clarity
Extrospective our goal

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Back to the dark
Headed to light
Out of the dark
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

Not looking back
Headed to light
Getting the knack
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

Back to the dark
Facing the light
Head out of dark
In to insight
Just like you said
It’s happening
Inside my head
It’s happening
On the start
To the hear
And back again

LYRICS
Hello opportunity!
Oh so glad you see in me
The possibility
To be what I can be
The mortality
To stress the urgency
Have faith in humankind
The kind you’d like to find
During this holiday time
I try to keep in mind
Hello opportunity!
Oh so glad you see in me
The possibility
To be what I can be

Just turn around
See what’s been found
Just turn around
There’s a whole world
To unfold
To envelop
Outside the envelope
Just turn around
See what’s been found
Just turn around

There’s a big wide world
Yet to view
And a lot of things
Left to do
[A lot of things I’d love to do
With you]

Just turn around
See what’s been found
Just turn around
There’s a big wide world
Yet to view
And a lot of things
Left to do

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Geese upon the pond
The temperature went real low
Probably don’t want to know
Are you sure?
The water started to freeze
While fast asleep the geese
Didn’t wake up in time
Didn’t work out just fine
The temperature went so low
Hated to come to know
The goose was footloose

Hard to choose
Just can’t lose
If picking both
is not a choice?
Might as well
Roll the dice
Craps! Snake eyes
Tell no lies
Keep rollin’
Keep rollin’

Hard to choose
Just can’t lose
Baby needs some new shoes
Hard to choose to lose
If picking both
is not a choice?
Might as well
Roll the dice
Craps! Snake eyes
Tell no lies
Keep rollin’
Keep rollin’

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
… on a sleigh ride?
Ho, ho, ho…. no.
You’ll split my side
Have you ever been sledding?
I’m not talking “on a sleigh ride”
Don’t mean to be mean
… but sledding
Heading downhill
The thrill of the spill
… sledding
Heading downhill
Until…
The fire dies upon our frozen sighs

bookmark_borderIf Only….

Posted on by admin

If only it was that simple
Maybe it wouldn’t be such a gamble
Start The End in a scramble
Broken eggs
Does your luck have legs?
Break a leg
On my knees and beg
the odds are at odds
The risk of the risk
Take in to account
Lief’s amount

If there were just no mistakes
Maybe there wouldn’t be so much at stake
Start The End with an earthquake
Broken eggs
Does your luck have legs?
Break a leg
On my knees and beg
the odds are at odds
The risk of the risk
Take in to account
Lief’s amount

LYRICS
The scent of pine in here
Means “the tree” is near
Decorated or not
That sweet smell
Hits the spot

There! Wafting in the air
The cookies must be cookin’
Decorated or not
That sweet smell
Hits the spot

Mmmm… that sugar and spice
An aroma oh so nice
Just a dream or not
That sweet smell
Hits the spot

LYRICS
I didn’t hear the light switch click
Now I’m standing here
In the dark
Waiting on that magic spark
… on a lark

I didn’t know the sun went down
Don’t know where to go
In the dark
Waiting on that magic spark
… on a lark

Now come on
Who pulled the plug
Waiting on dawn
Through the dark
Waiting on that magic spark
… on a lark

LYRICS
The problem with a couple
Wher4e you run into trouble
The problem with a couple
You’ve only two
(Limiting what you can do)
But much of the time
It works just fine
You can’t lose
With a pair of shoes
A pair of glasses
Also passes
Burt if you ask me
For several
Need at least three

The problem with a couple
Wher4e you run into trouble
The problem with a couple
You’ve only two
(Limiting what you can do)
But much of the time
It works just fine
Gotta love
A pair of gloves
Can’t compare
to a matching pair
Burt if you ask me
For several
Need at least three

LYRICS
There’s a ripple
On our surface
There’s a rip in
The human race
So it seems
Our seams
Need sown
No deceit in deficit; to own

Is there a tear
In the fabric
Is it hip
Or is it tragic?
So it seems
Our seams
Need sown
No deceit in deficit; to own
