I Know You're Smiling

Your feet were in the sand today
Along a lonely sea
You grabbed somebody's hand today
And somehow, it was me

I wished upon a star today
And watched that wish come true
I heard a voice out far today
And somehow, it was you

We found out who we are today
It's such a mystery
That pieces from so far away
Somehow fit so perfectly

Fish of a Different Color

Big fish and small fish
Swimming here in this pond
Fast fish and slow fish
And now one is gone

Poor, foolish fishes
Just make a few stronger
And watch how these fishes
Devour each other

To be the small fish
I'm sure none would bother
But oh, don't you wish
You could make the pond smaller?

I've found my own niche
To live my life fuller
For I am a fish
Of a different color

It was no logic alone
Brother, you’ll die in your pride

The treasures we feel
Like love can’t be real
When your hollow spirit denies
But a far bleaker fate
Rattles at the gate
Brother, don’t cover your eyes
