LYRICS
Aware or unaware…
How much where
Is between here and there
Space… the lack thereof
Let’s fill it up with love
A care or unaware
Suffering of their
A feeling that you share?

LYRICS
From the first time I laid mind on you
I knew the epiphany was true
Then, it was plain and simple as to what to do
What to do
Keep my mind on you
One with you
Won with you
The third eye cast out a glance
On the essence of romance
Starting in essence an adrenaline dance
Heart struck with cupid’s lance

LYRICS
What do you say
We lay
Down our arms
And make love
Turn off the killing alarms
Be free of
Turn on getting turned on
Spawn
A lush crush
For sure
Make love, not war
Love more, more, more
Make love, not war
Hate hate negate
More love more more
Lay your love spoor
Make love not war
ABOUT THIS SONG
Make love, not war is an anti-war slogan commonly associated with the American counterculture of the 1960s. It was used primarily by those who were opposed to the Vietnam War, but has been invoked in other anti-war contexts since. The “make love” part of the slogan often referred to the practice of free love that was growing among the American youth who denounced marriage as a tool for those who supported war and favored the traditional capitalist culture.The phrase’s origins are unclear; some credit Louis Abolafia. Radical activists Penelope and Franklin Rosemont helped to popularize the phrase by printing thousands of “Make Love, Not War” buttons at the Solidarity Bookshop in Chicago, Illinois and distributing them at the Mother’s Day Peace March in 1965. They were the first to print the slogan.
In April 1965, at a Vietnam demonstration in Eugene, Oregon, Diane Newell Meyer, then a senior at the University of Oregon, pinned a handwritten note on her sweater reading “Let’s make love, not war”, thus marking the beginning of the popularity of this phrase. A picture of Meyer wearing the slogan was printed in the Eugene Register-Guard and then a related article turned up in the New York Times on May 9, 1965. When the slogan was used in California in 1967, then Governor Ronald Reagan joked to protesters “Those guys [the protesters] look like they can’t make either of both”.

LYRICS
Do you think it’s about time
I’m your valentine
Seems everybody forgets about you
And how love is true
The creator of love
Reign down from above
The curator of love
Giving grief a lovin’ shove

Get less confused
Get infused with the love potion
Blonde, brunette and red head
A rainbow spread
Laissez faire
Love is in the air
Come light the fuse
Infuse the notion of a love potion
Straight, curls or in dread
A rainbow spread

When the sky turns shades of gray
From slate to goose
It’s time to say,
“Let mental nimbleness on the loose!”
Chorus
When there’s such a fine line
Between right and wrong
It’s time to find
A heartfelt love song
When the sky turns shades of gray
From goose to slate
It’s time to play
Role of the intelligent primate

LYRICS
If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace
Come to me
I will come to you
Put our arms around each other…
Put our arms around each other
For at least a minute or two
If you wish war would disarm
You feel the environment sound the alarm
What’s you really need’s to inarm
Be bold told enfold
Please give me a squeeze
If you’re having trouble finding a trace
Of humane in the human race
What’s you really need’s an embrace

Did I close my eyes
’cause I’m dreaming
Dreaming of you

All the time
Valentine of mine
Will you be my valentine?

LYRICS
Where did the love go?
Though all the promises
Rings and roses
Where did the love go?
With all the missed kisses
We’re building bridges
Where did the love go?
Throughout all of time
Goodness shall outshine
Instead of me and mine
We’re in the hour of our
In the era of our
Era of our hour
Our era hour
Where did the love go? (Right here!)
Though all the promises
Rings and roses
Where did the love go? (It’s right here!)
With all the missed kisses
We’re building bridges
Where did the love go? (It’s right here!)
Where did the love go?
Right here.

LYRICS
Do you remember?
Climbing on my shoulders
Riding on my back
Kissing by the boulders
Sitting on my lap
Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone
Looking down from heaven
Do you remember?
Do you remember… living in days like these
With God’s grace given
I do remember.
I do remember… the memories please
Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone
Here we are holding hands
Who would ever understand?
That you could fulfill
That someday you will fulfill
That this day you can still fulfill

ABOUT THE SONG

Written in Chester County, Pennsylvania and captured as a digital, stereo, extemporaneous recording. Demo MP3 is 1 track. Video is 6-tracks.
This song was inspired by one of my first girlfriends, Janet Welch of Clearfield, Pennsylvania. I sat down to write a song about Valentine’s Day and just started playing about love. This is what came out.
We were in high school… passing notes and falling in love. We made what I considered a great bet. She lost the bet; however, before she could fulfill her end of the bargain, she died in a car crash. Does a spirit live on?

Here I am
There you are
Aren’t we standing just a little too far
Apart
Let’s start
Getting Closer
Negate
Separate
Gaining closure
Here I can
You can, too
Shouldn’t we do all we can do?
Negate
Separate
Getting closer
Abate
Desperate
Heart tender
Tender-hearted
Let’s get started

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
