The Light
While waiting for it to snow
With you not knowing where to go
Staring into the darkness i thought i saw a light
Out the corner of my eye was i seeing things or was i right
But out of the darkness what started to appear this light
Which had me scared with fear or was it delight
But what that light was that appeared
Was nothing more than me wishing you were here

Hot
So hot here even the trees are looking for shade
Come on they scream we do this all year
Without being paid
The tar is lifting of the road
Praying for a water truck to spill its load
Roof tiles crying you think its hot down there
Try being up here
Its so hot it warps the door
They scream we cant take any more
Glass from the window pane
How would you like to be stuck in this frame
In the distance rain clouds appear
Yippy cries come out
Rain will soon be here

Ticket Of Dreams
Would you like visit the stars
What about mercury
Or even mars
There is not that much space between us
If i took a long jump could i land on venus
Then hitch a ride to jupiter or saturn
Then we could maybe catch a bus
To neptune and uranus
Come on lets go
We will even visit pluto
Then get a one way ticket back to earth
Imagine how much this trip would be worth
Maybe i have spoken to soon
But we have been to space
And even the moon
Way to hot to visit the sun
Lets keep dreaming for now but it would be fun

Love From You
How long dose a heart ache
Can you break a heart that is not whole
You imprisoned your heart so it would be safe
Believing that was a better place
Well i am pardoning your heart and soul
Your free your free to go
With this freedom i am giving you
You must love and let someone love you
Now you are free to roam and explore
And find that love you have been longing for
You have so much love to give
This love you have is a special gift
Well i will let you know something that is true
Its me thats been waiting for this love from you

Out Of Here
Piece by piece
Little by little
I am stranded i am stuck in the middle
Up down do you know
Which way do i go
North south east west
Which direction will serve me best
Maybe overseas
Maybe into space
I dont care as long as its out of this place
How about a cruise
Tropical islands
Which ones do i choose
Just jump in car and go
Hey i know mexico
But i dont speak spanish
Who cares i will manage
The car is packed
This place is sacked
Okay i am off here we go

Love Or Lust
When will i not feel what i feel
Cause we take whats not ours
We take we steal
I want no i dont but i do
Do i want you
We want what we cant have
But when we have do we really want
Love lust
Is it a need a want or a must
I feel free without love
I feel free without lust
But we can never be free without trust
We are dammed if we do
Dammed if we dont
Are we here for love, lust
Or just here to vote
Vote for what we desire more
Do we even know what we are voting for
Who will win
Who will come out on top

Sing
I wrote a love song but i cant sing
Drift away hanging from rope swing
The afternoon sun breaks through the leaves
Knowing what i know now nothings what is seems
So peaceful here everything is still
Can i capture and bottle this moment
And release it when needed release at my will
Why cant everyone have a place like this
A place to dream a place to reminisce
So as i swing in my swing
There is nobody around should i dare to sing
If only i had someone to sing too
I will sing to the birds and the trees
They wont know if is good or bad as i do
So i lay back an sing
I sing about everything

Is It Free
Do you believe love is free
Have you not heard of the birds and the bees
Are you even listening to me
Nothing is free not even the air we breathe
Just wait there's a price tag you'll see
I use to think love was free
Until i received your invoice your finders fee
Lets go back way back to december
Your kidding me is that a far a you can remember
I thought i could trust but i'm not so sure
Give me your free love all that you can
I will keep for later you understand
So do you still believe
I'm going to have fun your easy to deceive
So keep your money and your time
But all that free love is mine

The Show Is Over
Close your eyes and count to ten
When your reach ten
Start again
Didnt take long
When you open them i will be gone
Gone and forgotten
For the barrel is empty
I have reached the bottom
I could not wait for you any longer
I am tired of being lonely
And i am not getting any younger
Its hard to let go of someone you love someone you know
The curtains have closed its the end of our show
All i am taking is memories and me
The photos i will leave them be
Our race has run
But neither of us won
I know i will be lonely without you
But i have to you know i do
So goodbye take care

I Wish
Staring into the night
Come on shooting stars
Let me with on you
Remove these scars
Come on rain
Pour down on me
Wash away my pain
Come on day
Take away the night
Come on future
Get rid of the past
Give me a fighting chance
Come on love
Give me something
Give me lust
Come on courage
Give me some life
Come on commitment
Give me forever
Come on beauty
