Driven

I have been a driver
And I have been Driven
And I have come across this road before
I am not a Holy man
But I have been taken
to the promised land before

This has been the longest road
that I have traveled and I wound turn back now

Driven ...down under... (remix of "Driven"  by Bruce Conover) (USA SWI  ENG FRA)

Collapse the wave function find the location, maybe
Hide inside and bide your time 
Drop a dime on miscreant social climbers
Oh yeah faintly
Remember the Maine
You’ll never forget something
You can no longer name
Listen to the warbling
Of some random dame
Spewing out make believe to hide your pain
Of being left out of the party

This is a pop song
Drawn with crayons
Audio candy
For you
What does it mean
Absolutely nothing
An impression, a reflection of a sketch
Of a mood

Pick out all the pieces of an unspoken theme
Like tea leaves left in a cup
Weave the threads of lies into some woolen plies
And try them on for size, because
You want to look sharp while you’re
Strolling around
At the edge of the really nice part of town
Before they make you feel like a clown
Whoa here it comes

This is shlock song
Don’t worry it’s not long
A scaled back melody for you 
To sing
It’s all about you
And that magic
That you do
Not a word of it is true
It’s flattering

This is a pop song
Drawn with crayons
Audio candy
For you
What does it mean
Absolutely nothing
An impression, a reflection of a sketch
Of a mood

Pop Song

My dear friend and brilliant composer, Frank Mehl,  gave it the title "Elegy", because of its serious and mournful reflection of loss... not just loss of life but of any loss.  The opening of the piece is mournful with a sense of impending doom, but in the end I added a very hopeful melody of deep feelings and gratitude.  A full circle of life.  Thank you for listening!

TITLE: SIMPLE ROADS
__________________________________________________________
LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
Shoes by the door and a jacket that's frayed
A clock on the wall but I’ve lost track of days
The garden’s enough no need for gold
The less I carry the more I hold

(Chorus)
Simple roads and quiet skies
The weight falls off as the years go by
No need to run no need to try
Freedom lives where clutter dies

(Verse 2)
The mirror shows lines but I don't care
Each one’s a map of the love I wear
The clutter fades the heart remains
Peace grows wild like summer rains

(Pre-chorus)
No trophies no crowns
Just a soft place to land

(Chorus)
Simple roads and quiet skies
The weight falls off as the years go by
No need to run no need to try
Freedom lives where clutter dies

(Bridge)
Let the rush go like a passing train
What’s worth keeping will always remain
A bird in the tree sings my name
I answer back we’re just the same

Life Isn't Meant To Last

Simple Roads

Thank you for listening 🎶
-
The day has gone by, I couldn’t say what I did
Only that heavy embracing my heart well hid
At last the evening, the quiet, the silence, arrived
Alas it strengthened the feelings hidden inside

I’ve been telling myself that everything will be OK
Cause tomorrow you know is gonna be another day
But even though I try, I try and I fail
Sleep will not come n’my sorry heart will prevail

As if I can touch you as long as I reach out for you
Instead, I end up with a sad happy heart broke in two 
-
As if I can touch you as long as I reach out for you
instead, I end up with a sad happy heart broke in two


I can honestly say that I really never knew.
How a heart filled with love still can be broken in two.
No I can honestly say that I really never knew.
How my heart filled with love still can be broken in two

How my heart filled with love still can be broken in two
How a heart filled with love still can be broken in two
