ROCKS - James Michael Taylor
How many times have you
heard someone say,
"This is gonna last forever"
How many times have you
scratched your head
and said a silent, "Never."
There's a rock in Yosemite
that might just stand the test
Rocks…

Bill is visiting from Sweden.
He said he really liked this song.
So, I said, "Let's record it, Bill."
And that's what we did with him
doing the singing and humming.

A GOOD CRY
A song by Rick Babb
and James Michael Taylor
Why don't you cry?
I know you need to
A tear was meant to ease the pain

and it will wash you
So don't you try to hold it back
A good cry can't be bad…

Darkness covers your face
When we had love this house used to shine
Used to sparkle at night

NO GOOD TIME FOR GOOD-BYE
Up. Down. Gather round and watch me drown
Why. Not. Breathe the air with all you've got
In. Out. Was there ever any doubt?
Is it any wonder that my head is going under
And I close my eyes. Cross the skies

ROADSIDE PRAYER
A song by Jeff Prince and Jim Cleveland
There's a calm out on the highway
Quiet. Still.
What I'd give to smell some diesel
Blowin' outta the twin chrome steeple
On my knees out on the highway
Daddy owned a holy Bible…

HONEY CHILD
