If You Would Catch A Butterfly

SummerComesAlong

About this time 6 years ago, while recovering from a surgery, I was diagnosed with an incurable form of Muscular Dystrophy called Charcot Marie Toothe - a condition that deteriorates the muscles in the hands and feet, and works its way up the body.  Though the doctors currently don't have a cure, I am looking to a Higher Doctor's report!  I like to do something every year to sort of kick the devil in the teeth!  This is my kick for this year - Different Point of View. I played all the piano, organ and synth keyboards (just to keep on doing it!)  All the other instruments, I programmed using PG Music's phenomenal Band In A Box RealTracks and RealDrums.  I hope you enjoy this!

Different Point Of View

I won’t go down easy
I'm gonna fight the fight
Not being greedy
I Just want what's right
You may think I'm crazy
I wouldn't take that bet
You may think my better days are through
But I've got a different point of view

A little grey around the temples works just fine
But if you think I'm done, that's where I draw the line
These bones may rattle to the beat of the songs I play
But make no mistake, these bones are here to stay

I won’t go down easy
I'm gonna fight the fight
Not being greedy
I Just want what's right
You may think I'm crazy
I wouldn't take that bet
You may think my better days are through
But I've got a different point of view

It's been a long time since I played my first guitar
Three chords and a prayer got me off to a pretty good start
Those piano keys, they still feel good to me
Give me a few more bars, and you'll be dancing in the street

I won’t go down easy
I'm gonna fight the fight
Not being greedy
I Just want what's right
You may think I'm crazy
I wouldn't take that bet
You may think my better days are through
But I've got a different point of view

Different Point Of View

Haven
by Doug Haberman and Tammy Jann

I know I’m not always easy
I know I’m not always fun
At times I irritate you
But nobody's greater
At making me stand fast
When I want to run

Chorus
You raise me high
When I’m feeling low
You give me yes
When the world says no
You are the place
Where I always go
When I need a haven
When I need a haven


No one has my back like you do
No one makes me laugh so loud
You like to explain
The benefits of rain
When I shake my two fists
At menacing clouds


Chorus
You raise me high
When I’m feeling low
You give me yes
When the world says no
You are the place
Where I always go
When I need a haven
When I need a haven



Bridge
When I'm shattered in pieces, you pick me up
When I'm empty hearted, you bring me love
When I'm in pain, you pull me through
my haven is you


Chorus
You raise me high
When I’m feeling low
You give me yes
When the world says no
You are the place
Where I always go
When I need a haven
When I need a haven


Outro
You'll pull me through
My haven is you

HAVEN

It’s closer to one . . . 
the night’s nearly gone.
I’m soaking in the midnight sun 
trying to write this song.
But it’s so hard to get it right . . . 
when I’m hanging all by myself
on a Friday night.

This is my Friday, Friday song—
won’t you come and sit with me and sing along;
playing it proud, baby, loud and strong,
makes everything alright . . . 
on a Friday night.   

I’m killing myself 
trying to slay these lines;
but with a little of your help, 
I’d find the perfect rhymes.
But it’s so hard to give it life . . . 
when I’m hanging all by myself 
on a Friday night.

This is my Friday, Friday song—
won’t you come and sit with me and sing along;
playing it proud, baby, loud and strong,
makes everything alright . . . 
on a Friday night.   

I know lately you’ve been so damn tired,
but don’t you know you get me so inspired—
come on, baby, come feed my fire . . . 
wake up, girl, let’s play . . . 

‘Cause it’s so hard to get it right . . . 
when I’m hanging all by myself
on a Friday night.

This is my Friday, Friday song—
won’t you come and sit with me and sing along;
playing it proud, baby, loud and strong,
makes everything alright . . . 
on a Friday night.

My Friday Song

Solitude  

I would be grateful, if I didn´t need to feel abandoned again,
cause oh, this was never my feeling anyway,
it was yours and it´s old by the way, so let´s…
shake this off and put it where it belongs, shake this off and put it…

Away with waves,
praised be grace,
solitude feels so good.

I would be grateful, if I could allow myself to feel what I feel,
cause oh, it was you, but now it´s me, who forbid,
so let´s ease and perceive and then …
shake this off and put it where it belongs, shake this off and put it…

Away with waves,
praised be grace,
solitude feels so good.

Solitude

Regular Basis

A Valentines Day song of Love.

Time
Jubilee Reed

Don’t think about the things you could have done
Let the sun shine on our backs, take some time to relax
How many hours have we been sitting here?
People with their dogs pass by, thinking we’re just wasting time

But time is never wasted
My time is never wasted with you

How can I start to say how much it means to me
That you are willing to tell me what you’re feeling?
Your heart is beautiful, I hope you know
It’s drawing me close to you like it’s supposed to do

My time is never wasted
My time is never wasted with you

I hope you know
You made me realize how much I love you
Oh, I’ll let you know
You made me realize that I love you
Oh, I hope you know
You made me realize how much I love you
Oh, I’ll let you know
You made me realize that I love you

My time is never wasted
My time is never wasted, no
My time is never wasted
My time is never wasted with you

WISHIN' AND WHISKEY

mistakes and regrets disappear
blended into a fading buzz.
it's easy to filter to the good times
pretending that's all there was
loose and fast
reaching ever deeper into the well
stories past
the endings getting better with every tell
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;for what you don't remember
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;there's no accounting
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;for the most part, i know just where i've been
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the good the bad the in between all mixed in
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;wishin' and whiskey to wash away the sin

every day that passes
i seem to spend a little more time looking back
not sure what i think i'll see
if what i'm searching for would still be intact
trying not to listen to the devil as he dares me
tied in knots 'cause looking forward scares me
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;for what you don't remember
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;there's no accounting
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;for the most part, i know just where i've been
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the good the bad the in between all mixed in
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;wishin' and whiskey to wash away the sin
   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;wishin' and whiskey to wash away the sin

Wishin' And Whiskey

Prayer Wheels

we left them singing
guitars sliding and haunting the dawn 
shanty children drag their wings
to the Highway of Kings

on our horizon
see them run they run my love
ghostly gleaming horses pure as thoughts
when the Father tied these knots

I would bless and honour your days
signs of a solitary road
steer the other way
when dogs are at our heels
I`ll help you turn 
these prayer wheels

change the antenna
in squalor flowers of such beauty
this is your world roots in the mud
your lotus blooms above

I would bless and honour your days
signs of a solitary road
steer the other way
when dogs are at our heels
I`ll help you turn 
these prayer wheels

tires spin and heal 
our promise turns
prayer wheels

======LYRICS======
In fourteen ninety two
Captain Christopher Columbus
Had a dream about unrav'ling the ocean's mysteries
There were people who said he was crazy
But he had a hunger
And he sailed the Atlantic becoming an icon of history
Be who you gotta be
Go where you gotta go
Follow your dreams

[CHORUS]
Dare to dream the impossible
Chase that pot of gold to the end every rainbow
Dare to dream the impossible
Dreams make tomorrow

The road through life has bound'ries
The cradle and grave
And a day is only twenty four hours long 
Dreams are a diesel engine
They power the way
And they push pioneers up mountains and make them strong 
Be who you gotta be
Go where you gotta go
Follow your dreams

[CHORUS]

Computers, clocks, cars
Aren't they dreams come true?
Once a man called Armstrong
Even walked across the moon

[CHORUS]
