Tears on the Keys

Simple track, music made in GarageBand :)

Lyrics:

Love can be such a beautiful thing, if you just let it out
Don't hold back your love
You can't expect others to know
If you can't show what you feel inside, no one can see the real you
So don't hold back your love
Just let it out
Let it flow..

If you dare to give a piece of your heart
You can get so much in return
Give as much as you can
Even if you risk getting burned

Love can be such a beautiful thing if you just let it out
Don't hold back your love
You can't expect others to know
If you can't show what you feel inside, no one can see the real you
So don't hold back your love
just let it out
Let it flow...

No one can do it for you
But someone can do it to you...

No One Can Do It For You  (Original)

This one is a very nostalgic song that I wrote back in 2008, it has that early 60's vibe to it. My wife I needed some good vibrations since we were dealing with her Breast Cancer treatments and all that. We really needed a feel good song and so I wrote this. I even got her to sing background vocals with me on two songs at that time, this being the first and "Back In Younger Days" being the second, I'll be making a video on that one later on this year. 
    I double-tracked Charlie's vocals and he sang it perfectly! I remember having a real good time at these sessions, lots of laughing and finger snapping and rockin' & rollin' and what not!😂 I always want to relive the good ole days where smiles were plenty and frowns were few, like on "Memory Lane"!

     The video is brand spanking new, I just finished it last week! I worked hard on it for several days and tried to capture that Beach Boys kind of vibe of the early 1960's. I finished the video after hearing the sad news of Brian Wilson's passing on June 11th, 2025. That really made me sad, another of my musical hero's now gone. He was a real musical genius! There are 3 parts to the song, all about guys begging forgiveness from their girlfriends for something stupid that guys always seem to do, I Still Remember that!😂
     I think this is one Miami Jeff's best songs and certainly one of my favorites. It's very catchy and is a perfect summertime song! So I hope everyone is having a great summer and is eager to take another trip down Memory lane with me. This time to the beach! Let your hair down, take your shoes off, put the top down on the convertible and let the good times roll! Ooh, Ooh! Ooh!😎✌🏼

“I STILL REMEMBER”

I CAN STILL RECALL THE DAY I MADE YOU CRY,    
HOW I HURT YOU, YES I HURT YOU,    
I’M SO SORRY I COULD DIE,
               
I WAS YOUNG AND DIDN’T CARE IF YOU WERE SAD,   
NOW I’M OLDER, YES I’M OLDER,   
AND I MISS THE LOVE WE HAD,
                   
I REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,         
I STILL REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,        
THE WAY YOU HELD ME TIGHT,           
THE WAY WE KISSED GOODNIGHT,      
I REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,             
I STILL REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,         
THOSE SUMMERS ON THE BEACH,      
THEY’RE STILL WITHIN’ OUR REACH,       
SO PLEASE,         
IF THESE WORDS SOMEHOW TOUCH YOU DEEP INSIDE,       
MY WHOLE WORLD STILL IN YOUR EYES,       
SO PLEASE FORGIVE THIS FOOLISH HEART OF MINE,

I KNOW I WAS WRONG FOR TREATING YOU THAT WAY,  
PLEASE FORGIVE ME, JUST FORGIVE ME,   
GIVE ME ONE MORE CHANCE TO SAY,

I WILL NEVER BREAK YOUR HEART AS I DID THEN, 
I WILL LOVE YOU, ALWAYS LOVE YOU,  
IF YOU FILL MY ARMS AGAIN,
     
I REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,        
I STILL REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,          
THE WAY YOU HELD ME TIGHT,        
THE WAY WE KISSED GOODNIGHT,       
I REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,             
I STILL REMEMBER, OOH, OOH,               
THOSE SUMMERS ON THE BEACH,      
THEY’RE STILL WITHIN’ OUR REACH,       
SO PLEASE,      
IF THESE WORDS SOMEHOW TOUCH YOU DEEP INSIDE,     
MY WHOLE WORLD STILL IN YOUR EYES,         
SO PLEASE FORGIVE THIS FOOLISH HEART OF MINE,

I STILL REMEMBER, DARLING I REMEMBER,        
I STILL REMEMBER, DARLING I REMEMBER,         
I STILL REMEMBER, DARLING I REMEMBER.

Lyrics

1
Raining outside
What the hell are you going to do?
This is your life
The one to decide is you!

Chorus x 2:
Live it well, don't make a fool of yourself
Your decision will affect your day
Imagine you have wings, fly through the rain
Keep it honest and real along the way...

2
Storming inside
What the hell are you going to do?
This is your life
The one to decide is you!

Chorus x 2:
Live it well, don't make a fool of yourself
Your decision will affect your day
Imagine you have wings, fly through the storm
Keep it honest and real along the way..

3
Dirt on your mind
What the hell are you going to do?
Well, this is your life
The one to decide is you!

Chorus x 2
Live it well, don't make a fool of yourself
Your decision will affect your day
Imagine you have wings, fly through your life
Keep it honest and real along the way...

4
Living your life
What the hell are you going to do?
Well, this is your life!
The one to decide is you!

Chorus 
Live it well, don't make a fool of yourself
Your decision will affect your day
Imagine you have wings, fly through your life
Keep it honest and real along the way...

This Is Your Life

This take came aboout once when a friend of ours when asked 'what you up to' replied 'I'm going home to save the World', we thought that was a great idea for a track.  So here is Gone home to save the world.  

Gone home to save the World

This song was written for my beautiful wife Anita shortly after we both met. One of many I've written her, she is after all the love of my life. She put an end to that crazy mid-life crisis I was struggling with for 6 years! I really like this ballad and I re-recorded it this year and wanted Charlie to sing it but he cancelled out on several occasions for personal reasons, so I went ahead and sang it myself, I guess I should have waited!  (please forgive my awful vocals and harms!). It's a very basic and raw song and I didn't record a lot of instruments and I didn't do a lot of overdubs, maybe I should have, maybe a piano or some more strings would have helped it a bit. It's one of my favorite love songs that I have written and it's very personal, both lyrics and medley came to me rather easily and quickly, maybe an hour at most! Those are the best, the ones that come to you without you even having to think about it, they come straight from the heart.

The video is brand new and I had a lot of fun putting it together. I worked for several days on it. I hope everyone enjoys it and just in case anybody doesn't already know, my wife is "More Than Wonderful!"😂 I know a lot of people won't appreciate this song but it means the world to me! Thanks for listening and take care!🙏😎✌🏼

“MORE THAN WONDERFUL"

YOU’RE MORE THAN WONDERFUL MY DARLING,   
AND MORE THAN WONDERFUL YOU’LL STAY,   
JUST THE IDEA OF YOU TAKES MY BREATH AWAY,   
EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY HOUR OF EVERY DAY,  
YOU’RE LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE,    
A MIRACLE TO FILL THIS BROKEN HEART,  
YOU’RE MORE THAN WONDERFUL,
MORE THAN WONDERFUL YOU ARE,     

YOU’RE SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL MY DARLING,  
AND BEAUTIFUL YOU’LL ALWAYS BE,   
GRACEFUL AS AN ANGEL AND GENTLE AS THE SEA,   
SOOTHING AS A SONGBIRD’S MELODY,   
YOU’RE THE ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS,   
BACK WHEN I WISHED UPON A STAR,   
YOU’RE MORE THAN WONDERFUL,   
MORE THAN WONDERFUL YOU ARE,
         
IT’S NO SURPRISE,       
HOW YOU HEALED ME IN AN INSTANT,        
CURED ME WITH A SMILE,        
NOW ALL THE WHILE,        
I’M LIKE A CHILD,        
AGAIN,

AND WITHOUT YOU HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS,  
I WOULDN’T GET TOO FAR,   
YOU’RE MORE THAN WONDERFUL,   
MORE THAN WONDERFUL YOU ARE,   
YOU’RE MORE THAN WONDERFUL,   
MORE THAN WONDERFUL YOU ARE,
YOU ARE.

I hear your laughter, I see your smile
Even though it's been a while
since you waved goodbye to Mother Earth
I can feel your presence, strong and clear

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever i go

You are my smiling memory...

You said so many kind words, you were never rude
Even when you had a reason to be
Took care of those who needed a hand
It didn't matter to you, woman or man

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever I go

You are my smiling memory..

I look at the sky, and I see you
A dancing light, waving at me
You still bring a smile to my face
And I can feel your presence, strong and clear

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever I go

You are my smiling memory...
