So many songs....all about one beautiful person

Your Song

This is your song
Love with you can't be wrong

Before there was you
I was barely making due.
Just keeping tween the lines
and missing all life's hidden signs.

With love, that was rough.
I didn't try near enough
to hang my heart out there.
To live a life so raw and bare.

Baby!...This is your song!

Well it was you who rose
high above all of those
who knew me long before
you threw open my hearts door.

I have come to know
in your gorgeous loving glow
that it was always you.
The only thing to me that's true.

This is your song.
The words have come along
since you've righted all the wrong.

I do what I must do
so you can see what's true.
I am so in love with you!

Our love has finally come.
So let the guitars strum.
Gonna play until I'm numb.

I vow from this very day
to place you high above.
So you will always feel my love!

This is your song.
A song that's come along
since you've righted all the wrong.

I wrote it just for you.
Now you can see what's true.
I am so in love with you!

I'm so thankful I met you.
You have changed my life, it's true.
Starting from this magic day,
it will always be this way.

Your Song

She's The Light

She's the light inside of me,
without her I can't see.
She's a part of everything
I ever want to be.

She makes me feel
like I can do
about most anything.
Inspires me to be my best.
Reach for that golden ring.

She has a way of finding good
in everyone she meets.
She spreads her love
across the world
to anyone she greets.

She's so magnetic.
Watch her reel 
your hapless heart right in.
Around her I'm pathetic.
I just take it on the chin.

She's the light inside of me,
without her love I know I can't see.
She is part of everything
I ever want to be.

She loves without apology,
feel lucky you've a chance.
An expert in psychology
There's nothing happenstance.

The instant that you figure out
just what makes this girl tick?
She'll hand your hat right back to you
and make you feel sick.

She has a power so unique
I find I can't explain.
When I'm around her I feel weak.
A puddle for a brain.

She has no sense of what she does.
It happens naturally.
Everything I ever was
I'll discard happily.

She's my goal,
my only focus.
Near her I can't breathe.
Within those auburn eyes
I see a God and I believe.

She's the light
brought to my world.
I'll never know just why.
With her love flowing neath my wings,
I feel like I could fly.

So thankful for the memories
thru my minds eye they stream
I hope I never wake again
from this one lovely dream

When my life ends
and all of this just fades into the sea.
I'll thank the Lord for every day
that she was here with me.

She's the light inside of me,
without her love I know I can't see.
She is part of everything
I ever want to be.

Sing it loud! ….Sing it proud!...In a crowd!

She's the light inside of me,
without her love I know I can't see.
She's a part of everything.

Without her, I cease to be.

She's the light.

She's The Light

Imagine what would happen if the world moved as one.

Freedom Song

Gather round now everyone. Let's sing.
I promise it won't cost you anything.

We'll bounce it off the back wall. Let it ring.
You'll feel it in your bones where music clings.

There's power in each person when we sing.
In or outta tune don't mean a thing.

It's thunder from the rafters that we'll bring.
Like cool clear water gushing from a spring.

I don't care bout what you're doing or what you plan to do.
I only want to hear those harmonies come shining through.

I know your life is hard and sometimes it can be too much.
But singing has a way to ease your pain. Get back in touch.

Sing our freedom song!
Together we are firm and strong.
Been a coming for so very long.

Hear my joyful rhyme.
One by one let's make the climb.
All that's good will come to us in time

Singing will not cost you one thin dime.

Sing sing everybody sing!
Everybody lift your voice and sing!

I had a dream last night I can not shake.
The whole world stood together.
Claimed their stake.

Their joyful song was carried in the wake.
A bond so strong no one could ever break.

In harmony we'll pierce the sky above.
We'll sing together our one song of love.
Soaring high like one free single dove.
We'll finally get what we've been dreaming of.

Freedom is love!

Freedom Song

I never felt more powerless than the day I met her

Swept Away

That day that we first met
From a time I can't forget
Babe you quickly took control
You reached deep into my soul

I was nothing very cool
Just your average silly fool
Wondered what you saw in me
Another hopeless charity?

Swept away

I felt it instantly
Some have called it destiny
I could see no one but you
In an instant I was through

You knocked me off my feet
So much power yet so sweet
Your love scrambled up my brain
I went happily insane

So swept away
Swept away
Nothing else to say
I am swept away

So sweetly swept away

A light with style and grace
And that classic lovely face
With your striking gentle smile
Stalking my heart all the while

You've a way I can't describe
So forgive this diatribe
This moment comes along one time
So historic yet sublime

I never had a chance
My whole world just went askance
You know exactly what you've done
Blotted out the Summer's sun

You have shredded my lost heart
Tore my past life all apart
Oh God please just let her see
That for her it's only me

So swept away
Swept away
Nothing left to say
I am swept away
Swept away
Swept away

Babe I love your way

I am swept away

So sweetly swept away

Swept Away

Happy 46th Anniversary Baby!

I hope everyone can find true love

You Bring Magic
to My Life



You bring magic to my life
With everything you do
It's all I know that's true

You were meant to be with me
Through you I truly see
All that life can really be

You were sent from God above
At a time I wasn't free
Filled my heart just like a glove
Shaped my new reality

You bring magic to my life
Within those auburn eyes
Well each day's a new surprise

I just love to be with you
Your shining light so true
Brought a joy I never knew

I have found my one true love
Do you feel the same for me?
Shine your lovely light on me
Fill the gaps my eyes can't see

You're the only one for me
I am yours eternally
Take my hand and set us free

Together we will see all life could be

You bring magic to my life
With everything that's you
It's all I know that's true

You were born to be with me
Through you I truly see
All my life can really be

You bring magic to my life

You Bring Magic to My Life

In 2011, I was away from home for 8 months trying to accomplish something that if I succeeded, would have helped us both for a long time to come. Long story short, It failed miserably. I was gone for 8 months with nothing but heartache and pain to show for it. This is really the only positive thing that came out of that time for us. Thank you so much for listening!

I'm Coming Home

On the road so long
Trying to right the wrong
Just the same old song
I'm tired and sore


Trying to find my way
Only one more day
If I don't delay
I'll hold you once more

It's the kind of ache
That hurts to the core

Like never before

Comes a heartache
When your tears start to pour

Down to the floor

Constant pain

Has a way of shaping
Even validating
Fully saturating
All I do

It crawls under skin
Exposing every sin
Think you'll never win
Then somehow you do

Gonna need a fresh new start
Before I'm through

The payment is due

Should have known my path ahead
Begins with you

One thing that's true

I know Love

Is the only thing
Helping ease the sting
Make the music sing
Within my heart

Got to hold the line
Finally grow a spine
Will I see a sign
I'm coming apart

Being away from you
it was the worse part
Bout time I was smart

You and I we make
One great work of art
Miss you sweetheart

I'm coming home

I'm Coming Home

Most of my songs come to me just before I fall asleep or just after I wake up. My brain's in a place of peace, quiet and openness at that time, I guess

Dream Come True


In a dream
she came to me
Claimed my heart
so easily

Sent me reeling
Barely breathing
Bedazzled me

Swept me up
in loving arms
with a dash of
magic charms

Helpless feeling
with no ceiling
God's majesty

I can't find
the words to say
to explain
that fateful day

The thunder rolled
All doubts did fold
Might seem a bit cliche

I was taken for a ride
I got to glimpse
the other side

A place of wonder
Unencumbered

It's true

Love came that day

You have made me happy Baby
Everything you freely gave me

Opened up my eyes
What a sweet surprise
You've blown me away

I will start this very day
to show you
in every way

All my love for you
For my whole life through

You're my dream come true

I love you!

You're the one. I always knew
I love everything you do

With you time just flies
Never cloudy skies

You're my dream come true

I am yours from this day on
We have found a magic bond

that no one here can take
A bond that will not break

You're my dream come true

You and I we got it all
River wide and mountain tall

We will find our way
and cherish every day

You're my dream come true

 All I know is
you have made me happy Baby
Everything you freely gave me

opened up my eyes
What a sweet surprise

You're my dream come true

I love you!

Dream Come True

I've always loved a big Chorale sound. If used right, it can infuse the listener with so much emotion.

Love is All

Love is everything you need.

Love is more than what you feel.
Love can strengthen even heal.

Love will make you crawl.
Tear down every wall.

Love's the only thing that's real.

Love burns hotter than the sun.
Been around since time's begun.

Love has raised the tide.
Traversed oceans wide.

Love brings hope to everyone.

A solemn holy light
glowing softly in the night.

Helping us to find our way
through each uncertain day.

Love's

a simple modest dream
in one overarching theme.

Just a focused laser beam
from a single conscience stream.

Love has everything you need.
It's out there for you to see.

It's a gift for all mankind.
Deep within your heart to find.

Trust that love will come along.
Write your very own love song.

Find the one who owns your heart.
It's the only way to start.

Then be patient and be kind.
You'll be glad you took your time.

Love is all.

I finally found the one.
She's become my morning sun.

Brightens each and every day.
Showing me my only way.

The life she's made with me,
I can't describe fully.

It all started so simply
from a crazy fantasy.

Love has changed my life you see.
Without her I'd never be.

She's become my everything.
Given voice to all I sing.

I'm enveloped in her light.
I thank God she came in sight.

And for now this final thought.
Love won't bargain Can't be bought.

Once you sacrifice it all,
you will answer true loves call.
Love is all

Love is All

Dream Away


I'm gonna close my eyes
and dream a dream tonight.
This face I recognize.
Bathed in holy light.

Dream away.
Baby, dream away.
She's there for you to find.
Once the stars align.

You see

I'm this long lost soul
trying to make my way.
This life has took its toll.
I am nothing more than prey.

Dream away.
Dream a brand new day.
Help me see the signs
beyond my minds confines.

I'm a wannabe
drowning in a sea
of mediocrity.

In my history
the stark reality
that love won't come for me.

Life holds no guarantee.
On that can we agree?
Broken hearts can be stingy.

I can finally see
true love will never be
till there's humility.

She is all I need.
The only hope I see.
My one true destiny.

I'm gonna close my eyes
and dream of her tonight.
She's where my future lies
but for now I'll fantasize.

Dream away.
Baby, dream away.
A dream is all I'll know.
Till God can make it so.

Dream away.
Baby, dream away.

Dream Away

Anything
For You

I'd give anything for you.

Once upon a time.
Just like in a nursery rhyme.
All the stars they were aligned
when two hearts became entwined.
Just sit back and let our story unwind.

She knocked him off his feet.
So much power yet so sweet.
He saw what his life could be.
What a future he could see
as a single dream appeared suddenly.

I'll be yours across eternity.
Tell me that you hear sincerity.
I will raise you up so high you'll see
every second of our history.

I'd give anything for you.
And I'd do anything to be with you.
I would walk out on this ledge
Yes, I'll make a solemn pledge.
If you'd only say that you loved me too.

I'd give anything for you.
Give my heart and soul to only you.
You must see these words are true.
Be my rock. I'll be your glue.
There is nothing that together we can't do.

I'd do anything for you

You have made me happy endlessly.
In your life is where I'm meant to be.
Our love will be deep as any sea.
From this day on let's be just you and me.

I'd give anything for you.
And I'd do anything to be with you.
We will live the greatest life.
If you'd only be my wife.
If you'd only say that you loved me too.

I'd give anything for you.
Give my heart and soul to only you.
You must surely realize
when you look into my eyes
that these words of love I sing to you are true.

I'd do anything for you.

I'd do anything for you!

Anything For You
