Ghost Of Mississippi  (Steel Drivers cover)

HURRICANE
Anger grows from seeds of hurt . . . The hearts a fertile field.
Seldom blooms but when it does . . . Leaves wounds that do not heal.
There’s chaos, confusion . . . The future’s unsure
No answers, solutions . . . No one has a cure.

There’s a storm here that’s swirling . . . Tears will fall like rain 
In your brain, in your brain
LIVING IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE
Trouble is brewing . . . chasing wishes down the drain
In your brain, in your brain
A LITTLE PEACE IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE

Sorrow has no place to grow . . . The souls a sterile womb.
Seldom cry but when you do . . . There’s no one in the room.
There’s chaos, confusion . . . The future’s unsure.
No answers, solutions . . . No one has a cure.

There’s a storm here that’s swirling . . . Tears will fall like rain 
In your brain, in your brain
LIVING IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE
Trouble is brewing . . . chasing wishes down the drain.
In your brain, in your brain
A LITTLE PEACE IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE
Bridge
The sun hasn’t shined for quite some time.
But you’re still wearing shades.
You don’t want someone seeing your eyes
And seeing you’re afraid.

There’s chaos, confusion . . . The future’s unsure
No answers, solutions . . . No one has a cure

There’s a storm here that’s swirling . . . Tears will fall like rain 
In your brain, in your brain
LIVING IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE
Trouble is brewing . . . chasing wishes down the drain.
In your brain, in your brain
A LITTLE PEACE IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE

HURRICANE (Lyrics by Carroll Kiphen)

Written for the UK Songwriters Forum "Key Challenge" (F-Dm)

EXCLUSIVE  

For as long as it takes, And what ever you may say
I can put on the brakes, Or take it out on the freeway

Shine your eyes in the moonlight, so cautious and elusive
Blush from the wine, I will be your exclusive

Exclusive to you, Exclusive to me
Paint this town with the laughter
Brush stroke every memory
I can never get enough
Taking this old slow train to falling in love

Pennies in the wishing well, holding hands and walking as one
I might run out of stories to tell, but I'll be here when the day is done

You can wear my hoodie in the rain if it pours
I wanna’ be more than the friend who holds the doors

Exclusive to you, Exclusive to me
Paint this town with the laughter
Brush stroke every memory
I can never get enough
Taking this old slow train to falling in love

BRIDGE / SOLO

You can drive my car if you ever learn that stick shift
And I’ll step outside my comfort zone, chip in and do the chores
Hang out with the folks not on my A list . . . Ya’ I’ll go exclusively yours
You know I will

Exclusive to you, Exclusive to me
Paint this town with the laughter
Stardust every memory
I can never get enough
Taking this old slow train to falling in love  

CODA
I will be exclusive to you . . . will you be exclusive to me
I will be exclusively yours . . . will you be exclusively mine
I will be exclusively yours . . . will you be exclusively mine

EXCLUSIVE

WAITING ON A TRAIN

Sittin’ right here at the railway station . . . waiting on a train
Lose my blues playing guitar in the rain 
And it’s easy for me to say . . . ‘cause I can’t go back the way I came

Workin’ on a little situation . . . waiting on a train
Too much yesterday weighing heavy on my brain
Easy for me to say . . . ‘cause I can’t go back the way I came

Somebody warned me but I like to find out the hard way
It’s a one way track and you can’t turn back
And I am here . . . waiting on train

If I could feel the same again I would
If I could just remain the same I would
And when the weather is better, I need to hear that song again
Seems it’s never forever, these days . . . these days

Got another look at the book of love, trying to lose the pain
Search my soul so I won’t get fooled again
Easy for me to say . . . ‘cause I can’t go back the way I came

-Instrumental-

Somebody warned me but I like to find out the hard way
It’s a one way track and you can’t turn back
And I am here . . . waiting on train

If I could see the smiles again I would
If I could walk those miles again I would
And when the weather is better, I need to hear that song again
Seems it’s never forever, and I am here, waiting on a train
Oh I am here . . .  waiting on a train

DARK SKIES AND CLOUDS (Who Knows)
(Lyric by "Wicked Deeds" summer 2016)

Dark skies and clouds form overhead
Always the same I believe
Guy in the suit with the sharpest grin
Hoping for one last reprieve
Girl on the beach with the golden hair
She’s taken his heart with her leave.

Who knows where happiness reigns?
Who even plans these tomorrows ?
Fate carry us home, with smiles and sorrows

Dark skies and clouds . . . part of the living
Always the same I believe
Man in the moon always looking at you
Whatever your heart and mind can conceive

Who knows where happiness reigns?
Who even plans these tomorrows ?
Fate carry us home, with smiles,  love and sorrows
-INSTRUMENTAL-
Who knows where happiness reigns?
Who even plans these tomorrows ?
Fate carry us home, with smiles and sorrows

Dark skies and clouds . . . part of the living
Always the same I believe
Man in the moon always looking at you
Whatever your heart and mind can conceive
-SOLO-
BRIDGE
If every deed that we've done
Is witnessed by the earth and by the sun.
If all of our actions are stored and we are flawed,
Then dark skies and clouds will always be, always be

Dark skies and clouds . . . part of the living
Always the same I believe
Man in the moon always looking at you
Whatever your heart and mind can conceive
Guy in the suit with the sharpest grin
Hoping for one last reprieve.
Girl on the beach with the golden hair
She’s taken his heart with her leave.
CODA
Who knows where happiness reigns?
Who even plans these tomorrows ?
Fate carry us home, with smiles, love and sorrows
Fate carry us home, with smiles, love and sorrows
Fate carry us home, with smiles, love and sorrows
