Song Lyrics
While it is easy for me to take pen to paper or these days fingers to keyboard it is not always easy to make the words flow the way I want them to flow. Here are a few more of the words which flow from my spirit onto the page, This time in the form of more lyrics.
While I am not a musician and don’t know if the lyrics would hold up if set to music I just like writing them. The inspiration for these lyrics, like all my writing, comes from all over. Sometimes it is something I hear. Others times it is a thought of times past. Yet others come when an idea just pops into my head. Most of these lyrics are from ideas which just popped into my head.
I hope you enjoy this batch of lyrics.
Life is a series of notes strung together to create your own unique song.
Change
When did my life change
When did my life rearrange
When did my life change
From my youthful days
When did my life rearrange
To live my parents ways
I no longer live for
those Friday nights
For the music,
The dancin, the lights
Till the wee AM
I no longer spend
The money I earn
On every little
Whim, fancy or yearn
Til it is
No,no,no
When did my life change
When did my life rearrange
When did my life change
From my youthful days
When did my life rearrange
To live my parents ways
I want to go back
But I know I can’t go back
To those carefree days
Back to my youthful ways
Because time marches on
Years fade and are gone
My life has been changed
My life has been rearranged
“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything“ Plato
Missing You
Thought I found a love in you
But alas it never came to be
You took your love gave it away
To someone other than me
I saw you sitting together there
Embraced in a long soulful kiss
I knew then your rich warm touch
I would sorely and deeply miss
In the end I wish you the best
As I turn and stroll sadly away
Hoping you the best tomorrow’s
As I begin a life of new days
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
With some tears in my eyes
They say time heals all your wounds
But I think it’s a bunch of lies
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
My only choice is to move on
Try to move along with my life
Tell my heart this chapter is done
Thought I found a love in you
But alas it never came to be
You took your love gave it away
To someone other than me
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
As the love in my heart for you
Will take a long time to be gone.
“Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don’t live it, it won’t come out of your horn.” – Charlie Parker
Shut Up and Kiss Me
I pressed a finger to your lips
Said everything’s gonna be okay
Well get through this together
So shut up and kiss me
Shut up and kiss me, kiss me
Press your lips deep into mine
Enjoy the love we have together
Knowing someday we’ll be just fine
We’ve been through the rough times
We’ve been through the bad times
Many, many times now and before
But we’ve learned one thing in life
As long as we remember to love, to hold
each other our hearts will endure
So, Shut up and kiss me, kiss me
Press your lips deep into mine
Enjoy the love we have together
Knowing someday we’ll be just fine
So, Shut up and kiss me, kiss me
Press your lips deep into mine
Enjoy the love we have together
Knowing someday we’ll be just fine
Thought I found a love in you
But alas it never came to be
A Love
Thought I found a love in you
But alas it never came to be
You took your love gave it away
To someone other than me
I saw you sitting together there
Embraced in a long soulful kiss
I knew then your rich warm touch
I would sorely and deeply miss
In the end I wish you the best
As I turn and stroll sadly away
Hoping you the best tomorrow’s
As I begin a life of new days
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
With some tears in my eyes
They say time heals all your wounds
But I think it’s a bunch of lies
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
My only choice is to move on
Try to move along with my life
Tell my heart this chapter is done
Thought I found a love in you
But alas it never came to be
You took your love gave it away
To someone other than me
Missing you, missing you
I will be missing you
Cause the love for you in my heart
Will take a long time to fade away

Livin‘ In A Smalltown
Well,I wanna live in a small town
A Mayberry type of small town
A friendly help your neighbor small town
One of those small communities
A family living nearby small town
I’d own a little store there, smalltown
A sippin tea on my porch, small town
A very quaint place I wanna be
A Sittin all day with my friends, smalltown
Goin to church on Sunday, smalltown
Strolling along the quiet streets, smalltown
A secret smalltown romantic that’s me
I wanna see all there is to see, in a smalltown
I wanna become all I can be in a smalltown
Well,I wanna live in a small town
A Mayberry type of small town
A friendly help your neighbor small town
One of those small communities

Give Me Back My Peace
My mind is clouded with fright
My heart is clouded with fear
So much so It takes away
All of my happiness and cheer
I want to shout at the top of my lungs
Go away, get away, leave me alone
Give me back my peace, the peace
Which once my heart had known
Give me back my peace
Give me back my peace
My days are spent wondering, waiting
For the despair which may never come
My mind is clouded so very much with
Things which may or may not be done
Lord let my heart focus wholly on you
Blows the clouds in my mind far away
Open my heart up to your sweet truth
Turn me back, help me to see the way
Give me back my peace
Give me back my peace
My mind is clouded with fright
My heart is clouded with fear
So much so It takes away
All of my happiness and cheer
Give me back my peace
Give me back my peace
God is the only true source
For real peace in this life
Turn you heart towards Him
He’ll ease your fear and strife
Give me back my peace
Give me back my peace
What Is It About Music?
What is it about music that helps soothes the soul? Maybe it is the rhythm. Maybe it is the lyrics. For me it is the lyrics. I connect with lyrics when they touch a chord deep in my heart. My hope and prayer is that one of the lyrics in this set will do the same for you. Until next time try to find some peace and joy for your life even in these troubling times.
