Lyrics:

You never think it could happen to you until one day
you turn around and realize that he has gone away

the saddest part is that I don't think that you ever knew
I can't believe what I have done
I don't know what to do 

now that 

I've given your love away
and I'm learning the hard way

If I thought there would be a chance that I could call you mine
I'd wrap my arms around you, dear, and kiss you all the time

I never thought that there would be a chance that you'd say no
I can't believe what I have done 
I don't know where to go

now that

I've given your love away
and I'm learning the hard way 
I'm learning the heart way

With You

Written and produced by your's truly, dilly dilly.

This is a song that I was inspired to write after I saw what David Meiklejohn and Davy Rothbart had been working on for their documentary, appropriately title "My Heart Is An Idiot". You could say it hit a nerve with me so I took it and ran with it. It is now the closing credits theme song! 
This is free for the taking so we hope you enjoy!

lyrics!

Did you ever know 
when you walk away
I turn and look back at you

One day at a time
I can feel is rising inside
wild eyes follow you away
knowing you may never feel the same way

My heart is an idiot
it only sees what it wants to
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

There's nothing tonight
I want more than to be laying next to you
With your hand in mine 
where we oth know
it just feels right
while my mind slips away 
though  it's not ever as easy as they say

My heart is an idiot
it only sees what it wants to
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

My heart is an idiot
it only sees that it wants you
My heart is an idiot
it only beats when it wants to

My Heart Is An Idiot

OG sample from Alone In The Crowd by
Mulatu Astatke & His Ethiopian Quintet

wurdz:
Across the street I see two lovers meet
While I try so hard to get back on my feet
and hit the road again
It seems so helpless and I wanna fall apart
get out of this thing
'cause what I've got is not enough for you
and I guess my timing's just not right

Alone in a crowd
alright
Alone in a crowd

A distant city in a distant land
he's waiting patiently to be my man
he doesn't have a plan
he'll stand beside me and he'll take my arm 
but I will not stay
'cause what he's got is not enough for me
and I guess my timings still not right

Alone in a crowd
and I'll be alright
Alone in a crowd

So Blue

an oldie but a goodie! Just came across this one and thought I'd share! enjoy :) This is befroe dilly was dilly! ahh hahah

Hand on the window, feeling the Pane (Pain)
The way you see is all arranged
nothing to build on 
deep in a mass
with empty hands begging for me at last

not again, oh no not again

sustained
imagine away
sustained
imagine away

hey it's coming down to the red light 
taking my imagination
without letting go of 
the lack of suddendespreation

sustained
imagine away

no more making excuses for the sudden
slacking inspiration
passed on different emotion
I have come to 
final desperation

not again



  
 



Sustained

This is the song I wrote and recorded after hearing about the passing of Neil Armstrong... such sad news...

words...
It's not the first time you've left Earth dear
but it will surely be your last
complications bring us sorrow
say goodbye to your past

now you can explore it all
beyond the atmosphere

The space man has come and gone now
his legacy is held so dear
walked along the moon when living
a million lifetimes could never compare

and we'll take what we've been given
but when we look up we will feel
that man upon the moon is smiling
cause visiting him
is his old friend Neil

now you can explore it all
beyond the atmosphere
