Timekeeper, Leave Me Still

Another Bird Leaves

Another Bird Leaves - Version 1

If I saw a day that made me think of you.
It would be in May when the flowers bloom.
And the birds would sing a love song for the ages,
And I would hum along as they sang.

If I had a dream that could somehow describe
What you meant to me, how you made me feel inside.
That dream would doubtlessly be taking place in springtime.
And I would play along on guitar.

If I played a game that somehow captured you
The challenges explained in describing you.
Would it connect the dots or fill in all the blanks?
Would I play the game, or it play me?

If I wrote a song, is there any way
I could get it wrong and the music would not play?
Should I even try - or will my efforts make me realize
How it would feel if I loved you.

If I Loved You

I love this song, but wanted to put a different spin on it. Hope you like this.

Singing In The Rain (Cover)

(Verse 1)
A tiny world, a glistening sphere
A droplet hangs, so crystal clear
The sunlight catches, a million rays
Tiny lenses in many ways

(Verse 2)
The leaf below, a vibrant green
Veins like rivers, a hidden scene
This thirsty canvas, it drinks its fill
Life's essence flows, uphill

(Chorus)
Nature's beauty, a drop of grace
A tiny tear on a leafy face
A silent thirst, a life sustained
The cycle flows, forever chained
From dewdrop's kiss to vibrant bloom
A testament to life's sweet perfume
Each leaf a whisper, a story untold
A world unfolds, in morning's gold

(Verse 3)
From root to vein, the water climbs
A silent symphony, beating time
Each drop a promise, a whispered song
Of growth that's nurtured, where it belongs

(Verse 4)
From emerald bud to petals unfurled
The water's magic, transforming the world
A vibrant bloom, kissed by the sun
A life renewed, the cycle's begun...

lyrics:
Yeah I know you hate that
Car that you drive
And I know you rather take my ride
And that’s cool with me,
That’s cool with me
And I know your friends,
They’re all messed up
But, so are mine so I guess we’re stuck
And that’s cool with me,
That’s cool with me

I said, I said
Maybe, if we’re feeling like we’re in control
Then I don’t wanna lie
I just want the time
I said, I said 
Baby, if we’re living I’m not spiritual 
Cus, I don’t wanna die, I just want the time

I said you 
Drive me straight down to my knees
I said, I said you 
You give me everything I need

Yeah you know my highs
And you’ve seen my lows
And you’ve seen me cry, laying on the floor
And that’s cool with me,
Yeah that’s cool w with me
And you know my signs, even though I don’t
And you drink your wine,
Same time I smoke
And that’s cool with me,
Yeah that’s cool with me

I said, I said
Maybe, if we’re feeling like we’re in control
Then I don’t wanna lie
I just want the time
I said, I said 
Baby, if we’re living I’m not spiritual 
Cus, I don’t wanna die, I just want the time

I said you 
Drive me straight down to my knees
I said, I said you 
You give me everything I need

La da la da da oh oh oh oh
La da la da da oh oh oh oh
La da la da da oh oh oh oh
La da la da da oh oh oh oh
La da la da da oh oh oh oh

I said you 
Drive me straight down to my knees
I said, I said you 
You give me everything I need

Lyrics:

In the stillness of my room
I'm feeling so confined
Wrapped in memories of you
Can't leave it all behind
I'm searching for a way
To break away from the pain
Gotta find my peace of mind
And never go back again

Echoes of the past
Fading away
A new dawn awaits
A brand new day
I'll rise above
I'll spread my wings
Leaving you behind
These broken strings

In this dimly lit space
Where shadows dance and play
I'm drowning in the echoes of the words we used to say
But I made up my mind
It's time to set myself free
Gotta find a better place
Where I can finally breathe

Echoes of the past
Fading away
A new dawn awaits
A brand new day
I'll rise above
I'll spread my wings
Leaving you behind
These broken strings

(Instrumental)

And embracing what feels right
In the shadows of the night
I'm finding my own way
(Leave)

Leaving all the hurt behind
Starting fresh every day
Leaving you behind
