Her Eyes Upon Me.mp3

LYRICS
Is she looking at me?

As she walks in the door
Across the dance floor
Beaming from ear-to-ear
With the smile upon her face
Drawing ever near
Wrapping arms around me in an embrace

Is she looking at me?

She looks me in the eye
Then, I know
She looks I in the eye
Then, I knew
Oh, yeah! She’s looking at me

It feels oh so good
The way she wraps her arms around me
It’s a glimpse of heaven I see

Ahhh… she’s looking at me

When you listen to the music
It’s therapeutic
Clearing the way
(To a) Productive day

When you play away the music
It’s therapeutic
The faster I play
Quicker the O.K.

O.K.? Alright!
[Feeling alright refrain]

LYRICS
Here we go

Here we go
Into the know
Gather together
Hopefully, this time the bond… forever

Here we go

And, then so
We can know
We can know what it means be
We can know what it means see
We can know what it how it feels
We can know what it means to be real

Here we go

Enough of the to and fro
Here we go

We can have more with less

Here we go

LYRICS
My oh my
You think you can make that pig fly

Fat chance
If you think you can get that pig to dance

You might as well be writing some paperback romance
’cause you’re dreaming
In case you didn’t get it
You’re having a nightmare
And, I can only see one way clear —
Wake up!

There’s no way you will remain
Unless you pray for an angelic refrain

LYRICS
Order
Order in the court
This ain’t no tort
It’s criminal

Order
Order in the court
This is criminal
It ain’t no tort

Do you not understand
The serious nature
Of our accusations
Can’t you see that in a straight jacket
You have limited options

C,c,c,c,c, control

Order in the court
This is criminal
It ain’t no tort

There is no chance
You will get out of this unscathed
There is very, very little chance
You’ll be saved

In what do you believe

C,c,c,c, control
It’s natural
You’re out of control

LYRICS
Building a bridge
One step at a time
Step by step
Through my time

Open a hinge
One door at a time
Whoever was kept
Paid for our crime

Building a bridge
From sour to sweet
Cross the river… The River Styx
Into another realm we mix
Taking back a humanity fix
Sour of war and hate a-nix
Sweet, sweet, sweet suffix
Affix (The End)

The humanity perplex fix

LYRICS
There will be a time
When the Earth and sky fly
And, you’ll be faced with a lake of fire
And, you’ll be wishing you could get higher

On your Judgement Day
What will you say
Will you find a way
To escape the lake of fire

Every dog has it’s day
And, when it comes to be your day
What will you say
On your Judgement Day

Everybody will meet their maker
After all, you met your mom
When you first started living
In her womb
Now you think you don’t have enough room

Your money ain’t no good on the other side
