MOTHER'S EYES
I used to chide my mother
She saw the loss in every face
The cemetery. The old folks home
along the way
I used to laugh at Mother
She saw the pain in every eye
Now time has passed
and Mom is gone and here am I
And…
M E L I S S A Key of G
These are letters I like to say - M E L I S S A
These are notes I like to play……
Letters that sparkle. Notes that jingle
Make a little song in my heart
There’s a song in my heart today - M E L I S S A
I wish…
I TAKE THE BACK WAY HOME

I TAKE THE BACK WAY HOME
Sometimes I drink a little. Sometimes I smoke a little
Sometimes I flirt a little. Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I sing…

I’m clinging to the memories as the world falls apart
The falling leaves, dead Everleys are pulling at my heart.
My quest for rationality, I can’t even start.
So, I’m clinging to the memories as the world falls apart
I’m clinging…

Al has Alzheimer's. Alcohol made it worse
D stepping down…

It hit me...I know so many sides of so many arguments it's all become useless.
TOO MUCH
I’ve heard too much. I’ve seen too much
Don’t ask me any questions because
I know too much
I’ve read too much. I’ve written too much
Consider…
That takes my breath away. I can't wait to hear the music you put with the words. My feeling about the book ? I know, I hope it makes me a Breyer person in some way.
WHO SHE WAS
Maybe she'll come back. I hope she does.
Maybe there's a site on line
that'll tell me where she works
and who she was
Lady, please come back. I'll be right here
Ever night I'll pull up the covers and shut my eyes
and pray…
YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
I clearly remember, you said it didn't matter
I asked your permission. You said it's my decision
I said, "It's quite a climb." You said, "Well, take your time."
I asked you how you're doing and you said you were doing…
When Jimmy was little he couldn’t stand still
He had pepper in his britches
Jimmy was so funny. We threw him lots of money.
He kept us all in stitches
Jimmy was a thumper. A shadow humper.
He scratched it where it itches
Jimmy was a…
I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve been out of control
They took away my blanket. Put me out in the cold.
Even Miami’s got ice on the ground
Man said, “You be a good boy and get out of my town.”
I’d just got to sleep when they turned on the…

Well, I hate to change my story, but I'm nobody's savior any more
If you're looking for salvation you can find it at the Salvation Army store
They got a Naugahyde recliner they say will save your back
And if you've got a multi tool, they've…
No more sin or sorrow foolish fancy to a fault
No more dirth upon the land that withers under the assault
No more Babylon behavior bobbing up and down and up
until we drown away each memory scattered from a shattered cup. No more crying for…
This is the finished version of Trance-Indental. the second half has come out very different to what I thought it would, but I like it. Give it time to build as it progresses.
