Music & Lyrics by Tommy Lellan (C) 2025


Lyrics:

There's nothing left to say
There's nothing left to do
With no one left to wipe the slate
You've taken back your love
I'll sit with only mine
To reminisce...

My friends come gather round
I need your guiding light
To brighten up this black old soul
My dreams bring me to you
If only through
the wishes my heart made

I'll hold your hand
And expect all the world
My dreams may be mine
but they're plagued by you
I'll sit and wait
Till some obvious fate
Reminds me not to love

With no one left to love
The sunset's black and white
I'm thankful
it rises
at all
To be without a love
I beg you not to try
It only hurts

And strangers seem to stare
Much more than usual
It's probably in my head,
but still...
It hurts me every time
And makes it hard to find
my own self-worth

I'll hold your hand
And expect all the world
My dreams may be mine
but they're plagued by you
I'll sit and wait
Till some obvious fate
Reminds me not to love

Picture me the same
The day that we first met
Seasons change
And I'll have to learn to breathe
Without your faith
And I can't do this alone

I'll hold your hand
And expect all the world
My dreams may be mine
but they're plagued by you
I'll sit and wait
Till some obvious fate
Reminds me not to love

With No One

Places I've Been

Armagnac

A girl's revenge on a boy who is less than supportive when required...he pays the price.

Zawsze Dla Ciebie

My fav version of a song close to my heart.

Sorry(3)

I’m past the point of no return
I’m crossing my Rubicon
Too many bridges I’ve burned
And the cock keeps croonin’ on

You'd think by now I'd've learned
How to break these bloomin' bonds
But the tide has finally turned
And time keeps moving on...

The sky is grey with clouds
I watch people pass me by
I wonder if it's too late now
To give my dreams n plans a try

But something in me's burnin'
Something's calling out
Guess there's just no returnin'
Once you've heard that trumpet shout

Never too late, to chase
Chase your waterfalls
Never too late, to answer
When the Father calls

So open those gates
And break down those walls
Don't hesitate
To chase your waterfalls

Everybody's telling me
My time has come and gone
But I ain't buyin' what they're sellin' me
Cuz this is where I belong

But something in me's burnin'
Something's calling out
Guess there's just no returnin'
Once you've heard that trumpet shout

Never too late, to chase
Chase your waterfalls
Never too late, to answer
When the Father calls

So open those gates
And break down those walls
And don't hesitate
To chase your waterfalls

No set age is a bad omen
To a man who's heart is true
Cuz every single moment
Is a chance to start anew

Never too late, to chase
Chase your waterfalls
Never too late, to answer
When the Father calls

So open those gates
And break down those walls
And don't hesitate
To chase your waterfalls

Never too late, to dooo
What makes you smile
Never too late to see thru
The eyes of a child

So don't hesitate
To answer the Father's call
It's OK to chase your waterfalls
Don't hesitate - to chase your waterfalls

Chase Your Waterfalls
