Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Rolling out of Boston with a suitcase in my hand,
A worn-out old guitar, and a one-way travel plan.
City lights are fading, leaving behind the past,
Chasing down the desert, where the sky is built to last.

(Pre-Chorus)
The road ahead is lonely, but the road behind is gone,
I’ve got nothing left to lose, just the dream I’m leaning on.

(Chorus)
I’m westbound on a Greyhound, leaving it all behind,
Heading for New Mexico, where the stars are free to shine.
With the hum of wheels beneath me and the wind to guide my way,
I’m chasing down tomorrow, riding into a brand new day.

(Verse 2)
Stops in Philly, Richmond, and down through Tennessee,
Faces come and go, but this journey's setting me free.
The highway’s full of stories, but mine’s yet to be told,
I’m trading in the cold nights for sunsets bathed in gold.

(Pre-Chorus)
The road ahead is calling, and the mountains rise ahead,
I’ve got nothing but this six-string and the words left unsaid.

(Chorus)
I’m westbound on a Greyhound, leaving it all behind,
Heading for New Mexico, where the stars are free to shine.
With the hum of wheels beneath me and the wind to guide my way,
I’m chasing down tomorrow, riding into a brand new day.

(Bridge)
There’s a fire in the desert, burning deep inside of me,
A hope that waits in silence where the mountains meet the sea.
No more looking over shoulders, no more standing still,
The future’s waiting for me, just beyond that western hill.

(Chorus)
I’m westbound on a Greyhound, leaving it all behind,
Heading for New Mexico, where the stars are free to shine.
With the hum of wheels beneath me and the wind to guide my way,
I’m chasing down tomorrow, riding into a brand new day.

(Outro)
Yeah, I’m riding into a brand new day…
On this westbound Greyhound, I’m finding my own way.

Lyrics:
Verse 1: I woke up to an empty space Your side of the bed, a hollow place The memories linger, they still remain But you're gone, and I'm left with the pain
Chorus: I'm still here, waiting for you Through the darkness, I'll see this through I'm still here, holding on to the truth That our love was real, and it's still in my youth
Verse 2: I drive through the streets, we used to roam The city's awake, but it's not my home I'm searching for a glimpse, a sign that you're near But it's just a shadow, a memory that's clear
Chorus: I'm still here, waiting for you Through the darkness, I'll see this through I'm still here, holding on to the truth That our love was real, and it's still in my youth
Bridge: Time may be moving, but I'm standing still Frozen in the moment, our love was real I'll keep the fire burning, a beacon in the night Guiding you back, to the love that we ignite
Chorus: I'm still here, waiting for you Through the darkness, I'll see this through I'm still here, holding on to the truth That our love was real, and it's still in my youth
Outro: I'll be here, patiently waiting For the day you'll come back, and our love will be rekindled, recreated In my heart, you'll always be And I'll be here, waiting, for you and me.

I'm Still Here

Lyrics:
(Verse 1) In twilight's hush, where shadows play A crone wandered, lost in thought's gray way Through forest deep, where ancient secrets sleep She chanced upon a crow, with eyes that seemed to keep
(Chorus) Oh, crone and crow, a mystic meet In woods where wisdom whispers, at their feet The crow spoke words, that echoed through her mind "Share your knowledge, crone, leave your wisdom behind"
(Verse 2) The crow's black feathers, glistened in the fading light As it spoke with voice, both low and clear, a gentle night "Your path is winding, crone, through life's dark and its pain But you've gained much wisdom, and a heart that's not in vain"
(Chorus) Oh, crone and crow, a mystic meet In woods where wisdom whispers, at their feet The crow spoke words, that echoed through her mind "Share your knowledge, crone, leave your wisdom behind"
(Bridge) The crone's eyes widened, as the crow's words took flight She saw the world, through new and different sight Her years of solitude, and secrets kept apart Now called to be shared, a gift to the heart
(Verse 3) The crow's wise gaze, seemed to see right through To the crone's deep heart, where love and knowledge brew "Your time is now, dear crone, to pass on what you've gained To those who seek, the wisdom you've obtained"
(Chorus) Oh, crone and crow, a mystic meet In woods where wisdom whispers, at their feet The crow spoke words, that echoed through her mind "Share your knowledge, crone, leave your wisdom behind"
(Outro) The crone and crow, parted ways that night But the crone's heart was changed, by the crow's gentle light She returned to her hut, with a newfound sense of purpose true To share her wisdom, and see it grow anew.

Lyrics:
Verse 1
I saw you standing there, under the neon light,
Your smile was shining bright, it lit up the night.
The jukebox played our song, the one we both adore,
I couldn’t help but wonder, could I ask for more?
Chorus
Oh, will you be my girl?
Take my hand and rock my world.
We’ll dance until the morning light,
Oh, baby, will you be my girl tonight?
Verse 2
Your hair was golden fire, your dress a shade of blue,
I felt my heart race faster every time I looked at you.
The band was playing loud, the crowd began to sway,
But all I saw was you, as the music played away.
Chorus
Oh, will you be my girl?
Take my hand and rock my world.
We’ll dance until the morning light,
Oh, baby, will you be my girl tonight?
Bridge
The stars are shining up above,
This could be the start of love.
I’ll hold you close, don’t let me go,
Together we’ll steal the show.
Chorus
Oh, will you be my girl?
Take my hand and rock my world.
We’ll dance until the morning light,
Oh, baby, will you be my girl tonight?
Outro
So tell me now, don’t make me wait,
This could be our twist of fate.
The music fades, the night’s still young,
Say yes, and let our love be sung.
Oh, baby, will you be my girl?

Will You Be My Girl

Lyrics:
Verse 1: Mama said, "Wait till you're married, sweetie, it's the right thing to do" But the fire's burning, and it's hard to resist, oh, what to do? Religion whispers, "Guilt is what you'll feel" But I'm here to tell you, it's okay to let go, and let love reveal
Chorus: Stop waiting, girls, it's time to be free Don't let society, or your conscience, be the key To unlock the passion, that's burning deep inside Stop waiting, and let love be your guide
Verse 2: You're told to save yourself, for the one you'll love But what if love is here, and you're sent from above? The guilt is weighing, on your heart and mind But I'm here to say, it's okay to leave it all behind
Chorus: Stop waiting, girls, it's time to be free Don't let society, or your conscience, be the key To unlock the passion, that's burning deep inside Stop waiting, and let love be your guide
Bridge: You're not alone, in this feeling so real There are others, who've broken free from the ideal Of waiting for the perfect night To give in to desire, and let love ignite
Chorus: Stop waiting, girls, it's time to be free Don't let society, or your conscience, be the key To unlock the passion, that's burning deep inside Stop waiting, and let love be your guide

love you through Infinity

(Verse 1) I've been ridin' these country roads, feelin' kinda low Been searchin' for a love that's real, somebody to call my own I've been to the waterin' holes, and the local bars too But nothin's felt right, till I saw you walkin' through

Lyrics:
Verse 1 In a world that's torn apart Where fear and hate have taken their part We search for a brighter day A time when love will find its way
Chorus Let peace rain down, like a gentle shower Wash away the pain, and calm the troubled hour Let peace rain down, and heal the broken ground Bringing hope to all, in this world around
Verse 2 We see the darkness, we feel the strife But in the midst of chaos, we hold on to life We yearn for unity, for a world as one Where differences are celebrated, and love has won
Chorus Let peace rain down, like a gentle shower Wash away the pain, and calm the troubled hour Let peace rain down, and heal the broken ground Bringing hope to all, in this world around
Bridge We'll stand together, hand in hand We'll rise above, we'll take a stand For a world where love is the guiding light We'll 

Let Peace Rain Down

A story written by Easthampton resident J.D. O’Brien will appear in an anthology of the best mystery and suspense short fiction in America. O’Brien’s selected story, “Outlaw Country,” follows a struggling Nashville country singer who decides the best way to get famous is to commit a high-profile crime. 


(Verse 1)
Down in Nashville he was singing to the walls,
A barroom ghost with a dream too small.
He'd trade his soul for a headline's flame,
Said, “Fame don't come to the ones who play tame.”

(Chorus)
Outlaw Country, where the bright lights burn,
You steal your glory, or you wait your turn.
He took his song and a loaded plan,
Outlaw Country made a wanted man.

(Verse 2)
He wore rhinestones like a rebel's crown,
Said, “I'll raise some hell ‘fore they shut me down.”
The crowd's gonna cheer when they know my name,
Even if the law remembers the same.

(Chorus)
Outlaw Country, where the bright lights burn,
You steal your glory, or you wait your turn.
He took his song and a loaded plan,
Outlaw Country made a wanted man.

(Bridge)
Now the radio plays his final tune,
A voice from the cell beneath the moon.
They say he got what he came here for,
But the price of fame was a prison door.

(Chorus)
Outlaw Country, where the bright lights burn,
You steal your glory, or you wait your turn.
He took his song and a loaded plan,
Outlaw Country made a wanted man.

(Outro)
So if you're singin' for the world to see,
Be careful how you chase that dream.
Outlaw Country calls your name,
But you might lose more than you gain.

Outlaw Country

What killed Napoleon's army? Scientists find clues in DNA from fallen soldiers' teeth In 1812, hundreds of thousands of men in Napoleon's army perished during their retreat from Russia. 


(Verse 1)
Frozen fields and empty skies,
Ghosts of men with hollow eyes,
They marched in strength, they fell in pain,
The snow erased each soldier's name.

(Chorus)
Napoleon's defeat, not by the gun,
But fevered breath and the setting sun,
The empire's pride turned pale and weak,
In the biting cold where the dead don't speak.

(Verse 2)
No cannon's roar could match the sound,
Of sickness spreading underground,
Typhus whispered, hunger cried,
The great army broke, and the dream died.

(Chorus)
Napoleon's defeat, not by the gun,
But fevered breath and the setting sun,
The empire's pride turned pale and weak,
In the biting cold where the dead don't speak.

(Bridge)
From teeth of the fallen, time confides,
The secrets hidden where the winter hides,
DNA tells what the generals won't-
That death came silent, and mercy don't.

(Final Chorus)
Napoleon's defeat, not by the sword,
But by nature's hand, unpraised, ignored,
The grandest march, the cruelest end,
When frost and fever became his men.

Napoleon's Defeat

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Sun came up, coffee cup, vinyl on the shelf,
Cat-eye clock keeps tickin’ like my helpless, lonesome self.
Your red scarf on the mirror, your lipstick on the rim,
Now I’m dancin’ with a shadow to a heartbreak rock ’n’ rim.
Chorus
I’m missing you, baby, like a needle needs the groove,
Like that backbeat needs the two and four to make it move.
Like a Cadillac needs chrome and a sky that’s highway blue,
I’m missing you, baby—what am I gonna do?
Verse 2
Neon buzz at the diner, quarter in the box,
Jukebox spins our record and it really really rocks.
But your side of the booth is colder than the moon,
And the sugar’s in the shaker but it won’t stir up a tune.
Chorus
I’m missing you, baby, like a needle needs the groove,
Like that backbeat needs the two and four to make it move.
Like a Thunderbird needs wind and a midnight rendezvous,
I’m missing you, baby—what am I gonna do?
Bridge
I hear that slapback echo on the telephone line,
Every ring says maybe, every click says “outta time.”
If love’s a Gretsch guitar, I’m a broken, bent string,
But I’ll tune this heart for you if you’d only let it sing.
Verse 3
Blue suede blues on a Sunday in my scuffed-up shoes,
Revvin’ up my motor but I’m stuck on losin’ you.
If you roll back to my doorway ’fore the break of day,
We’ll turn this lonely rhythm to a sweet, hot swingin’ sway.
Chorus
I’m missing you, baby, like a needle needs the groove,
Like that backbeat needs the two and four to make it move.
Like a tailfin needs the sun and the paint to shine right through,
I’m missing you, baby—what am I gonna do?
Tag/Outro
Yeah, I’m missing you, baby—
Come on home and make this heart brand new.
I’m missing you, baby—
Only dance I want is two-stepin’ back with you.

Rock My World Girl
