Winning the Day

Is she winning the day
All the miles on her page
With a smile on her face
All her mind can't erase
She's a star She's too young
To be wired so undone
While she tries to become
Brighter than the sun
She floats in a dream
Breaking confines of her skin
Can't hold in a scream
As her past life's creeping in
She remembers a time
When she reveled sublime
Always sharin' a crime
Any partner she could find
She was wild She was free
She could sing through the trees
Like the song of the bee
Sweet honey in your tea
She floats in a dream
Breaking confines of her skin
Can't hold in a scream
As her past life's creeping in
Does she even believe
When the spotlight's shinin'?
Will she always be
On the outside looking in?
She floats in a dream
Breaking confines of her skin
Can't hold in a scream
As her past life's creeping in
Does she even believe
When the spotlight's shinin'?
Will she always be
On the outside looking in?
Is she winning the day
Only she could ever say
We all mold the same clay
Only in our different way

Ghost Among The Trees
You say you had a reason
For walkin' away in the dark
There's no amount of pleasin'
Your light's only lit by a spark
So go on
I'll see you
Move on
I free you
I'm thinkin' 'bout the breathin'
The fire burnin' hot from the start
We left it to the seasons
Sprung to our falling apart
Now go on
I'll see you
Move on
I free you
Whiskey in the wind
Copious hours of sin
We sure knew how to play
Before we faded away
When flowers turn to leaves
I'm a ghost among the trees
Somethin' to believe in
The wild has a way with the heart
Pretending is deceivin'
Truth always shines in the art
So go on
I'll see you
Move on
I free you
Whispers in the wind
I fall on my back and grin
With sunlight on my face
I always find my place
When colors hit the leaves
I'm a ghost among the trees
Ghost among the trees
Ghost among the trees

Hurricane Desire
Get up off of your seat come and dance with me
We gotta move to the beat embrace our destiny
We’ll synchronize our sin in the elevating spin
Whisking whirling wind around our burning skin
Dancing in the rain feeds the hungry fire
Nothing’s left the same in hurricane desire
Emotion waters rise Kneel to the wicked eye
Shit is starting to fly Nothing’s left to deny
Dancing in the rain feeds the hungry fire
Nothing’s left the same in hurricane desire
I hear you calling beyond the torrent
Of certain wanting desperate current
What stops the yearning? What stops the burning fire desire?
Dancing in the rain feeds the hungry fire
Nothing’s left the same in hurricane desire
We’ll survey leveled land. Will we do it hand in hand?
The possibilities grand while we’re sifting through the sand
Sifting through the sand
Sifting through the sand

Buzz of Bees
Like a blowing breeze
Her song comes back to me
As I would only know
When love begins to flow
In even worst of days
There’s green among the gray
And with the bloomin’ trees
Comes the buzz of bees
Like wine to our lips
Are sips of gold
In the shine of smiling eyes
Are sighs of home
Don’t know what I wish
The spoon or the dish
‘Cause I would only guess
What love we do possess
Life is blurred these days
As light succumbs to shade
And with the bloomin’ trees
Comes the buzz of bees
Like wine to our lips
Are sips of gold
In the shine of smiling eyes
Are sighs of home
Home

Be Wild

Be Wild
Hear the creek of your bones as you creep through your home
Mutter lines from your tome like some old ghostly crone
Better gone from your mind letters burn that you find
Pictures fade from a time you were young unrefined
Will you flee your cage of insanity?
Will you break the chains you made?
And take a drive through winding countryside
Board a flight to a secret ocean prize
Take a hike through forest to mountain pride
Open wide to the fruit of paradise
And get out of the game
Fly free with the strange
And be wild
Do you sleep through the day? Take a peek through the shade?
See the dream to be made There’s no time to be afraid
Wash the dust from your face Stretch the rust from your grace
Leave the past in its place Ride the wave to future space
Will you scream for sacred humanity?
Will you stake the claim you made?
And take a drive through winding countryside
Board a flight to a secret ocean prize
Take a hike through forest to mountain pride
Open wide to the fruit of paradise
And get out of the game
Fly free with the strange
And be wild

A Kid in a Dream
I wanna be a pirate of the caribbean sea
I wanna fly a spaceship through the galaxy
I wanna be a cowboy riding western plains
I wanna be the native defending my terrain
‘Cause I’m a kid in a dream to be a king
I’m a kid in a dream to be a king
I wanna be a sailor of the ocean blue
I wanna be a jedi may the force be with you
I wanna be an outlaw robbing the wealthy
I wanna play the hero shaping destiny
‘Cause I’m a kid in a dream to be a king
I’m a kid in a dream she’ll be my queen
Shooting her laser gun
Arrow in rebellion
An agent of intelligence
Stealing the secrets
The hero is my princess
Saving me from the evil one
I wanna be Batman the darkest of knights
I wanna be hopeful our nation gets it right
I wanna be a rockstar on the grandest stage
I wanna be my brother and I never want to age
‘Cause I’m a kid in a dream to be a king
I’m a kid in a dream she’ll be my queen
I’m a kid in a dream to be a king
I’m a kid in a dream she’ll be my queen

Estefania
I can’t believe what I can see
Some kind of angel starin’ at me
The music plays she starts to sway
And I’m unable to look away
Flower in her hair dancin’ in the street
Floating on air movin’ to the beat
I want to be close but I can’t find my feet
I can’t believe Estefania
A mystic stranger enchanting me
The music flows temptation grows
With brewing danger the darkness shows
Serpents for her hair daggers for her teeth
Devil in her hips whips crackin’ at her feet
She’s pullin’ me close so I can feel the heat
O Estefania
Estefania you couldn’t be a
Spanish dream Estefania
The music fades she leads the way
And I’m unable to disobey
Roses for her hair diamonds for her teeth
Candy for her lips tricks smackin’ like a treat
I’ve never been so close, now I lie here in defeat
Ooh Estefania
Estefania
Estefania
Estefania

Music Man
Strike up the band Set out on your quest
Over the land now Across the US
Such a brilliant glow With applause for your show
Dine on divine O Celebrate the time
With beer, whiskey and wine
Then like a gun As sudden as death
The joy the fun gone in a short breath
Shot holes in your song Where the muse belonged
No stage for your mind Just rage to unwind
With beer, whiskey and wine
But O you were the music man
But a man nevertheless
O you were the music man
Why did you go to rest?
Why did you go to rest?
So the band was done with family too far
Many lives were spun In the dimming of the star
You gave it all up Unlike your full cup
Even love couldn’t shine ‘Cause you were blind
With beer, whiskey and wine
But O you were the music man
But a man nevertheless
O you were the music man
Why did you go to rest?
I get you now I confess
I forgive you now I confess
I’m a lot like you I confess

The Ringing of the Rain
My heart is hidden beneath the alabaster
Warnin’ the forbidden of impending disaster
My soul is still pining beneath creeping shadow
She’s always shining through my ghostly hollows
And in a dream she’s waving from a train
That always leaves to the ringing of the rain
Tossed in the swirling waves of her laughter
She’s dancing she’s twirling and I drown ever faster
I see her face in all her heated glory
I’ve taken my place by the fire of her story
Her story
An amazing blazing flight
Exploring
Like a rocket to the night
She’s a rocket to the night
She’s a rocket to the night
To the night!
A storm is brewin’ flashes are flyin’
Darkness is chewin’ a rose-colored skyline
And I see her face gaze far into the West
Gone is the faith in the heart of my chest
It’s not a dream She’s waving from a train
That always leaves to the ringing of the rain
She always leaves to the ringing of the rain
She always leaves to the ringing of the rain

The Last Rose
We babble on like nothin's wrong
We’ll battle on 'till it's all gone
It's a story with no glory
The last rose fading black
God disappears when preaching fear
Like lightnin’ spears to our ears
It's a “good book” if ya don't look
Give your money for that honey
The last rose fading black
Will we rise through the smoke
From the lies the burnin’ vote
Will we sing a chorus note
Save the last rose from fading black
When life's a gun it wounds everyone
Shoot skin they shun race can't be won
These are sad days the way the flag waves
All the caged ones all the murdered sons
Senseless war blood for oil whores
The last rose fading black
Will we rise through the smoke
From the lies and burnin’ vote
Will we sing a chorus note
Save the last rose from fading black
The oceans rise we can’t disguise
Earth will win despite our sins
The last rose fading black
The last rose fading black
The last rose No turning back
The last rose

Lonely Rocket
Look at me in this lonely rocket
Peacefully float through space
I could stay up here don’t you knock it
With the stars feelin’ safe
But hey, I may come down as free
Heart open wide to the air
If true, will you seize re-entry
Start a new love affair
Gotta say, it’s an awesome rocket
Keeps me high above the race
Stores the pain in my deepest pocket
Sun and Moon set the pace
But hey, I may come down as free
Heart open wide to the air
If true, will you seize re-entry
Start a new love affair
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
Baba deeba Daba Doo
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
Bop Bop dweedop Baba Doo
But hey, I may come down as free
Heart open wide to the air
If true, will you seize re-entry
Start a new love affair Start a new love affair
