I wrote the lyrics when I was 26 after overhearing some elderly folks talking about their fading memories. Years later, Suno enabled me to put my lyrics and the melody in my head into a complete song. (My music-writing skills are very limited.)

LYRICS:
The wind blows…
Old mem’ries through the trees.
Where does the mind go
When it’s drifting out to sea.

How was I to know…
I’d lose so many years
While the wind blows.
I’m not the only one that hears… 
The wind blow.

The wind blows…
Fallen leaves in the air.
How the gray cloud grows…
Like the streaks that line my hair.

When the sunlight glows…
I’m happy in many ways.
But then the wind blows
And I long for my younger days 
Younger days.

Why hold on to all those yesterdays?
There comes a time to shake loose the old ways.
‘cause the world is changing
Feels like I’m standing still.
I can have old dreams 
And new free will
While the wind blows…

Now the wind blows…
My mem’ries round the sun.
Where did the time go…
When I’ve only just begun.
I feel the overflow…
Yes, I’ve got a lot to give.
How was I to know…  
I’d want so much to live
While the wind blows. 
Whoa-oh-ooooh-oh-oh-oh
I like how the wind blows… 
Hmm-Mm-Mmmmm-Mm…
I like how the wind blows…

The Wind Blows

A humorous take on doing stupid stuff on video in hopes of social media fame.

Don't Be a Dumbass

Because some days you just want to drive off and never come back. (Lyrics and melody: Dan Bradley | Music and vocals: Suno)

Getaway

Getaway (Jam-Rock Version)

When breaking up is overdue...

GOING NOWHERE FAST
Lyrics and melody by Dan Bradley
Music and vocals by Suno

When two hearts long for something better
It’s no chore to spot the telltale clues
They go far beyond the late-night-fighting blues

No easy way to say goodbye 
I knew you wouldn’t cry
All our passion fell by the wayside
No need to ask why

So we must let it go
Happy faces just for show
It’s hard to hold on when there’s nothing left to hold on to
Love’s gotta have time to grow
But neither of us seems to know where we’re headed
Looks to me like we’re going nowhere fast

The beginning was all butterflies
With anticipation through and through
Loving every moment 'cause it was new

No easy way to say goodbye 
I knew you wouldn’t cry
All our passion fell by the wayside
No need to ask why

So we must let it go
Happy faces just for show
It’s hard to hold on when there’s nothing left to hold on to
Love’s gotta have time to grow
But neither of us seems to know where we’re headed
Looks to me like we’re going nowhere fast

So we must let it go
Happy faces just for show
It’s hard to hold on when there’s nothing left to hold on to
Love’s gotta have time to grow
But neither of us seems to know where we’re headed
Looks to me like we’re going nowhere fast
(Nowhere fast)
We’re going nowhere fast
(Baby, I’m telling you)
We’re going nowhere fast
(Going nowhere fast)
We’re going nowhere fast

Going Nowhere Fast

The support of a loving spouse makes all the difference. 

LYRICS:
LOOK TO ME FOR A SMILE
Lyrics: Dan Bradley;
Music & Vocals: Suno

Another stressful day
You had to work late again
Doing your overtime for a better life

They say you’ll get more pay
But they never tell you when
Sometimes you wonder how we’ll ever get by

When you’re half way home
Feeling all alone
Just remember, I’m waiting here

It’ll never go out of style
You can look to me for a smile
Look to me for a smile

Another sleepless night
Spent turning yourself around
I know the sound of your heart like it was my own

My smile can’t make things right
But it’s the one thing you’ve found
That keeps a tired ol’ troubled heart from turning to stone

When you’re half way home
Feeling all alone
Just remember, I’m waiting here

It’ll never go out of style
You can look to me for a smile
Look to me for a smile

You gotta believe
I believe… in you.
Yeah, you gotta believe
I believe… in you.

When you’re half way home
Feeling all alone
Just remember, I'm waiting here

Honey, it’ll never go out of style
It’ll never go out of style
You can look to me for a smile (You gotta believe)
Look to me for a smile (I believe in you)
Look to me for a smile (You gotta believe)
Look to me for a smile (I believe in you)
Look to me for a smile (You gotta believe)
Look to me for a smile (I believe in you)

Look to Me for a Smile

Live & Breathe It

Live & Breathe It (Remix)

About the pain of absent love.

Lyrics by Dan Bradley
Music and vocals by Suno

PURE EMOTION 

You have sensations deep inside yourself
They come and go without reply
All that’s left is a lonely achiness
You won’t forget the reason why

Pure Emotion 
Sympathetic vibrations from the heart
Pure Emotion
Automatic responses from the start

You learn to cope with all the loneliness
But you’re too quick to crucify
Trying to fill the endless emptiness
Seems far too much to satisfy

Pure Emotion 
Sympathetic vibrations from the heart
Pure Emotion
Automatic responses from the start

No one knows better the pain of absent love
And the guilt one feels when wanting it again
No matter how hard you try
You can’t bury what’s inside
Feelings you can’t deny…

Pure Emotion 
Sympathetic vibrations from the heart
Pure Emotion
Automatic responses from the start

Pure… 
Comes straight from the HEART…
(Pure Emotion…)
Inside you from the start
Pure Emotion.
(Pure Emotion…)
Pure Emotion.
(Pure Emotion…)
Pure Emotion.

Pure Emotion

Live long enough and life will shoot plenty of "arrows" your way.

Arrows

Moving on from a broken heart is a difficult thing.

Long Gone (Singer/Songwriter Version)

For every first love that became a first heartbreak.

Gone (Vintage Teen Angst Version)

A simple man's love for his lady inspires him to greater things.

I'm a lyricist, not a performer. Maybe a professional out there will like one of my songs and want to record it. Miracles happen! (Contact me through SoundCloud.) 

I grew up writing lyrics and playing drums. My music-writing/playing skills are limited, but I managed to record a few demo songs over the years (songs with "Demo" in the title). 

Because of my limitations, I started using Suno AI to generate music/vocals for my lyrics. The results are tons better than I could do on my own. And it's fun to bring my lyrics to life. Thanks for listening!
