Albums & Song Lyrics 

Melancholy Waltz

Danielle (Days Early On)

Danielle, don’t leave me
Danielle, please believe me
Mon ame, mon ‘tite monde
Tres jolie, jolie blond
Ma chere, bebe
Mon couer, please stay
Danielle

Remember the days early on
Smiles were for free
Kisses were gifts
Running for joy
Because hearts could contain
But a drop of the love we once knew
If only the past were today
Love was as sweet as a song
Remember days early on
Danielle…

Torment if you must and distrust all the battles we shared
Fighting the chemical hell
The well of despair
The darkness descends
To choke all the life from our selves

I promise that I’ll get it straight
It’s not too late
To have some faith in myself
I’m different tomorrow
I’ll pawn off my sorrow for truth
Dry as a Joshua tree
Please trust in me​

Faith Come Back to Me

I once believed that life’s a folly
Circus tents and rodeo
Now I know that life’s afleeting
Love hearts tender river flow

And I thought time was a road to glory
But friends have fought and not come home
Books I’ve read were the same old story
Battles won fought righteously

​Faith come back to me
Please don’t linger needlessly
I hope to see you soon
This old sun needs your sweet moon

Maybe love lives in an oak tree
Old black arms reach outto me
Mountains too and boundless prairie
Walks the floor of the deepest sea

Faith come back to me
Like gentle snowfall sound
I’ll wake and you’ll be there
​In peace to lay my trouble down

For a While

For a while for a while
I only be here for a while
For a while for a while
I only be here for a while
It’s been so nice to meet you
In the future I will see you
In a while

Well I came into town
Feeling kind of down on my luck
You held out your hand
Knew that you could understand life can suck

You were kind enough to listen
Lend a hand and pay attention to my stuff
Gave a place to lay my head
Gave me black instead of red, gave me enough

Well I love this place
It’s a feel good kinda place, feels like home
If you’re ever in my town
Be sure to come around don’t be alone

My Love

I LOCKED MY PASSION UP TODAY
I’LL NEVER KISS YOUR LIPS AGAIN
YOUR LOVELY HAIR AND BEAUTIFUL SKIN
I’LL NEVER TOUCH YOUR FACE AGAIN

IN ALL THE WORLD I LONG TO BE
HELD IN YOUR ARMS AND MY LIPS
CAN TASTE YOUR SKIN,
SO SOFT AND SWEET
MY LOVE, SWEETHEART
MY LOVE

THE COST OF LIFE IS MUCH TOO HIGH
IT HURTS SO MUCH TO SAY GOODBYE
IT’S NOT THE WAY LOVE’S SUPPOSED TO BE
AS I GO HOME ALONE WITH ME

IN ALL THE WORLD I LONG TO BE
HELD IN YOUR ARMS AND MY LIPS
CAN TASTE YOUR SKIN,
​SO SOFT AND SWEET
AND WHEN YOU GAVE YOURSELF TO ME
YOUR PASSION SWEPT AWAY MY FEAR AND PAIN SWEETHEART, MY LOVE
SWEETHEART, MY LOVE

AND WHEN YOU SEE ME WALKING BY
YOU CAN NOD AND I’LL SAY HIGH
AT LEAST YOU’LL KNOW WHAT MY EYES SAY
WE’LL LIVE TO LOVE ANOTHER DAY

My Oklahoma Hills

I left my home behind me
My dreams do travel there still
Through prairie ocean grasses
Of my Oklahoma Hills
 
Rock skip cross the water
Hawk glide wind to will
The sound of peace resides there
In my Oklahoma Hills
 
Stars post a wheel to guide me
Sun leave no shadows surround me
Full moon my sister walk with me
River my soul flow to thee
 
No more fruits of my labor
Nor love to my heart fill
The circle then is broken
With my Oklahoma Hills
 
Stars post a wheel to guide me
Sun leave no shadows surround me
Full moon my sister walk with me
River my soul flow to thee
 
I’ve left my home behind me
My family lies there still
‘Neath prairie ocean grasses
Of my Oklahoma Hills
Rue SanXay

Come Back

Love, storied love, they say
As it was, is still today
No truth can greater be
Than your faith in me
 
There’ll be a time, I know
Together we’ll find, I know
That thread of hope to lead
You back to me
 
Love rose in evening past
Born true and meant to last
First eyes then hands did touch
Perhaps I loved too much
 
Dilute these burning tears
Kiss them away
You should be here with me
Come back to stay
 
No more this cold repast
Memories so firmly cast
My life continues on
Still missing you
 
Through life’s relentless tide
Our love remained
You lost the final fight
I’ll always love you
 
Love, storied love, they say
As it was, is still today
No truth can greater be
Than your faith in me   

Oscar Wilde's Middle Name

Oscar Wilde’s middle name
Lives in Ireland, lived in Spain
I would too
Wouldn’t you
 
Oscar Wilde’s middle name
Rolled a spliff at Ballyvolane
I did too
Wouldn’t you
 
Like his namesake, he’s pretty witty
Fingal, Wills, or O’Flahertie
Facts are facts, but unnecessary
When your name is
 
He’s not bound by Hellenic dreams
Nor confounded by Cardinal schemes
He makes cheese and banger too
Works a farm and makes love do
 
Oscar Wilde’s middle name
He’s not famous; it’s a claim to fame
He doesn’t care
Life’s not fair
 
In a world that is so complicated
Life’s better while syncopated
Stories rise with a hint of a smile
Live to laugh and seek to beguile
 
Oscar Wilde’s middle name
Lives in Ireland, lived in Spain
I would too
Wouldn’t you

Over and Over Again

Crystal clear nights
Bright stars in the sky
Brings us together
Family is nigh
 
The shortest day of the year
Loving hope
And happy cheer
A lighter step
A brighter style
A helping hand
The warmest smile
With me
And mistletoe
And kiss over and over and over again
 
Toast to love
Bonne Anne
The future arrives
On New Years Day
 
Friends and Accordions
Songs that we know
Children sing laughter
Laughter together
Love last forever
Let it ring true
To be
Together we’ll sing
And sing over and over and over again
 
Stories we gather
Create to belong
Reflects off the ocean
Or snow in a song
 
The end and beginning
The old and the new
A chance to look forward
A chance to review
Trust, understanding
The solstice renew
Our love
And spirit true
And love over and over and over again
Over and over and ov
er again

Oxford Town (Bonneville)

​A late night rain is rollin’ through
I lie awake in my hotel room
in my mind you’re comin’ on strong
same story line plays on and on

 
I’m goin’ back to Oxford town
I’m goin’ back to Oxford town
 
I saw your face
in the shape of a cloud
so far away yet near somehow
I long for you
for no reason at all
it’s been gone through
for some time now
 
I’m goin’ back to Oxford town
I’m goin’ back to Oxford town
 
The way she walked
across and away
I nearly called out loud your name
but it was not you
the picture wrong
dreams can fool
and lead you on
 
 I’m goin’ back to Oxford town
 I’m goin’ back to Oxford town

Play On (Lawrence/Lacques)

I see his face in every sky
I hold him close every night
And on the radio every love song
Is just for him and me
 
We walk along as if to say
Forevermore is here to stay
And on the radio every old song
Is just for him and me
 
And we play on
 
And so goodnight as if to say
Tomorrow is another day
And on the radio
They only play songs
 
And we play on

When I Find My Love Someday

​When I find my love someday
My heart will know the dreams we made
Come true, and let me hear you say
The words I long to hear you say to me
 
A voice that moves me
A song that soothes my soul
And stills my searching mind to hear
Whispered words convey your love to me
 
Holding me dearly, arms that believe me
Trusting that we’ll never be apart
Kissing me sweetly, sweet lips that greet me
Everyday we’ll never be apart
 
And when I find my love that day
Will be a day when my heart sings
To you and all the love we share
The seed we plant will come to bear we two
 
And if you’re the one to find my heart
Be gentle with this tender heart
To have and hold this precious ring
A circle bound to share my life with you
 
Holding me dearly, arms that believe me
Trusting that we’ll never be apart
Kissing me sweetly, sweet lips that greet me
Everyday we’ll never be apart

Bunny Rabbit

Rabbit bunny rabbit
Runnin through my fields
You know I’m gonna catch you
If it takes 100 years
 
Rabbit bunny rabbit
Eat the beans right off my vine
I swear I hear you laughin
It’s your time; it’s your time
 
I can see you bunny rabbit
Your tail a flyin high
You can run bunny rabbit
But I will catch you by and by
 
Eat my greens bunny rabbit
The kale and lettuce too
Fill your tummy little bunny
I think I’ve grown enough for two
 
Where oh where bunny rabbit
Late at night where do you roam?
I have searched the world over
And I still can’t find your home
 
You are such a pretty bunny
My fair sweet cottontail
I’ll find you sleepin in the hollow
We’ll make a home down in the dale

Call Me Back

I called you up on the telephone
Left a message said that I’d be home
You didn’t call, what’s up with that?
I wanna know why don’t you call me back
 
You know I called sometime last week
I’m kinda shy, makes it hard to speak
I play accordion, what’s wrong with that?
I wanna know why don’t you call me back
 
You read People and Mademoiselle
Know who’s who and what to tell
You think you’re smart but you don’t know jack
I wanna know why don’t you call me back
 
Said you loved me, thought I was funny
Bought stuff and spent my money
Took you shopping and that’s a fact
If you don’t like it you can give it all back
 
I kissed your lips and held your hand
Told you things I thought you’d understand
You took a walk and you never came back
I wanna know why don’t you call me back

Fields Where They Lay

I went a walking walking walking
I went a walking the fields today:
 
There, she was standing alone
She turned, noticing me
We talked, easy can be
The smile she smiled at me
 
We went a walking walking walking
We went a walking and she smiled at me:
 
Rain proffered the life to sustain
The fields, giving the bounty we need
To hearts, conceiving a generous path
To guide our way back home
 
We went a walking walking walking
We went a walking our way home
 
Mine, was the child that was born
To grace, my wife she is
My love, as sweet as the field
We laughed and made our way
 
The Day came when boys were away
To guard borders they claim to exist
The walls built to separate lives
To shield the owners way
 
They went a marching marching marching
They went a marching the owners’ way:
 
And armies forever they march
With arms, they forever will bear
And trust, men who lead them astray
Down to fields where they lay
 
I went a walking walking walking
I went a walking in fields where they lay:

Hey Mr. Rooster

Hey Mr. Rooster you sure are lookin fine
You’ve got a name that’s a lot like mine
Lend me your comb and I’ll make my pompadour
And I’ll be lookin good struttin through that old barn door (singin)
 
Cock-a-doodle Do
Cock-a-doodle Do
 
Crankin on the ice cream, smell that cherry pie
Pile it on my plate just as high as the sky
Black-eyed peas and cornbread, sugar in my tea
Rollin to the tune of your sweet melody
 
Milk Cows
Let em in
Let em out
Churn butter
Gather eggs
Compost
Fence post
Hay bale
Water gap
Swimmin hole
With a bobber and a pole
Flyswatter
Back porch
Shoe horse
Tune Truck
Saddle up
Round up
Sunset
Hit the hay
Saturday
Let’s play
 
Sittin on the back porch, hear those crickets sing
All life’s troubles don’t mean a goddamn thing
Runnin in the rain in my birthday suit
Just me and all the chickens and they don’t give a hoot (singin)
 
Cock-a-doodle Do
Cock-a-doodle Do

Marry Me (Lacques)

MARRY ME
COME ON, MARRY ME RIGHT NOW
I WILL NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER
NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER LEAVE
I PUT A SPELL ON YOU I WANT TO GET CLOSE TO YOU WHO DO YOU LOVE
I’M ON MY BENDED KNEE
IF YOU’RE THE SEA AND I’M THE EARTH
JUST RUN YOUR FINGERS THROUGH MY DIRT
LIKE RAIN ON YELLOW SANDY GRIT
TO RAISE THE WATERS OF MY MILLION FISHES SLOWLY DYING
GIRL, I WILL NEVER EVER GO
I’LL NEVER GO AWAY
I’LL NEVER LEAVE
 
           WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MARRY YOU
           HOW DO WE MAKE THE SKY TURN BLUE
           WHAT MUST YOU KNOW TO KNOW I’M TRUE
           WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MARY YOU
 
MARRY ME
RAIN ON DOWN
LIKE RAIN ON SAND, LIKE RAIN ON CORN
LIKE RAIN ON GECKO, ARMADILLO
MUDDY WATER LAVA DELTA CLEAR UP TO MY KNEES
MARRY ME
WE’LL LIE
JUST LIKE PIE
OLD AS HELL
JUST ANNIVERSARIES AND WRINKLES
LOSE MY HEARING LOSE MY MIND
NOW HONEY, TELL ME WHEN IT’S TIME TO WINNEBAGO OFF THE WALL
TWO GRINNING MASKS IN STICKY DUST IN WINNEBAGO
SHINE FOREVER IN A CANYON FORTY-NINER
FOREVERAFTERNOON VACATION
WITH THE INCAS AND THE PHAROAHS
AND YOU AND ME
 
           CHORUS

Maybe You and Me

I been all around, up and down the town
Lookin for a love, a special kinda love
Maybe you and me and all the world can see
You’re a special one, the one I’m dreamin of
 
Been around the world, Tulsa California
Paris Texas, North and South Dakota
Maybe you and me, and all the world can see
You’re a special one, the one I’m dreamin of
 
Not that I’m so alone, laptop, cell phone, and television
This is my home, me and my phone
 
Traveled up in space, there’s a lot of space
Miss the human race, it’s pretty quiet there
Maybe you and me, and all the world can see
You’re a special one, the one I’m dreamin of
 
You could use a friend, someone to talk to
Then we could spend, time, me, and you
 
I been all around, up and down the town
Lookin for a love, a special kinda love
Maybe you and me, and all the world can see
You’re a special one, the one I’m dreamin of

Old Friends

All the old friends that I’ve known, they have come and they have gone
All the old friends that I’ve known, they have come and they have gone
You know I miss them so much, because I have loved them for so long
 
There was a time
When we were blind to the fact that
Time just doesn’t care
Feels like we played
Our time away
No talk of tomorrow
Only today
 
Epistemological Plato blues
Yogananda and Camus too
All life’s troubles
Solved overnight
Wishes we made and
Wished that we might
 
All the old friends that I’ve known, they have come and they have gone
All the old friends that I’ve known, they have come and they have gone
You know I miss them so much, because I have loved them for so long
 
Where they have gone
I cannot say
Should I laugh or should I pray?
Let me go
Leave me be
All of these faces
Haunting me

Pirate Kitty

I am the Pirate Kitty lolling on my throne
I’m the boss of you and everything you own
I’m the queen of everything mice tremble at my sight
With a patch upon my eye and a willful appetite
 
Pet me, Stroke me, Love me, hear me purr

Feed me, Feed me, Feed me,   STOP GO AWAY
 
As I stroll across the room, all make way for me
I’m the Sphinx, I’m Cleopatra, I am Moses at the sea
All the people know me; Johnny Depp is my best friend
I am the pirate kitty, now feed me once again
 
Pet me, Stroke me, Love me, hear me purr
Feed me, Feed me, Feed me,   STOP
I’M SLEEPING
 
My favorite place is everywhere, anywhere that I am
Caress me where I want you to, as slowly as you can
Still as glassy water or as quick as lightning bolts
I am the Pirate Kitty and you are doomed to be my host
 
Pet me, Stroke me, Love me, hear me purr
Feed me, Feed me, Feed me,   STOP
FEED ME

Poet's Prayer

Who knows what shakes dear old Willy say
Language long gone disappear
Imagination, love, and wonder
To the poets we do pray
To the poets we do pray
 
If I slumber, please do wake me
Roust me from this lurid dream
There’s no memory, shellshock people
Morphine steeples souls to keep
 
Trane blew notes true, what they say is what they do
Miles, Monk, Duke play “Strange Fruit” Holliday
Big Bob Zimmer say “Hard Rain” our way
No doze, eyes closed opens to a world betrayed
 
If I slumber, please do wake me
Roust me from this lurid dream
There’s no memory, shellshock people
Morphine steeples souls to keep
 
Countless voices pave our way
Labored lines with little pay
Mindful crossing, striking kindly
To the poets we do pray
To the poets we do pray

Moving at The Speed of Trees
On the Boat
​On Board the Oceanic, freedom cross the sea
I toast the land I could not stand, although she beauty be
Lots of food for thought you see but none for family
Board the Oceanic cross the sea
 
As I leave my only home I think of you and me
Your broken heart, love torn apart, a child upon the way
I’d rather seal my heart than steal another day
Take what’s mine and stow myself away
 
Packed upon the railing we see ideals held high
Does she speak for everyone or merely privileged lies
of opportunity where greener grasses grow
If we do not leave, we’ll never know.
 
Found myself in Lenox Mass and found my options few
I chose to work the stables, as that was something I could do
To lift myself from poverty and down a pint or two
Oh I love the horses, as they act the way they do
It’s the owners I don’t care for, never do
​

I met a woman there to start might life anew
we shared a type of loneliness that strangers sometimes do
She seemed so very like myself and yet so different too
The beginning and the end of us, another passing dream
Sorrow’s shore is sorrow unforeseen
 
Jobs were open building arms to reinforce the cause
Kept me out of trouble, an arms reach from the law
Somehow they always used me no matter how I tried
They seem to need me and despise me, all to suck me dry
Gone and left my motherland and you're my country now
​Maybe not so different anyhow

Men fight as men will,  I’m called to serve this land
I’ll step up and give myself and hope you understand
That if I give my life to you will you treat me as a man
And show my children every love and opportunity
Or board the Oceanic cross the sea
​
Isla (Lawrence/Thomas)
Lavender eyes
No need for tears
Doubt cast aside
Fear fade away
 
Luminous dreams
Offer to guide you
Painting a way through
Let them reveal
 
Clock spins away
Face in a mirror
Numbers refrain
Life in a day
Look to yourself
The world moves around you
They’ll make their way
Go your own way
 
Dawn’s river flow
Allow her to hold you
Smile with the rain
You’re not alone
Go find her now
Where did you leave her
Down by the river
Girl of your dreams
​

Life Long Lived
​She made her way
cane in hand
a wavering carriage
a determined girl
 
Met in the garden
her circle of friends
Gathered together
Nearby the river
 
Terrace of green
Lead down to the trees
Soothing air
Canopy whispering
 
She told stories
Fantastic stages
People, places,
Music and pages
 
Marriage had come and gone
Children away
And there she was
Near a century passing
 
One hundred years
Industrial to digital
Cars to Mars
Wars never ending
 
They were in love
Embracing her thoughts
In silent wonder
of a life long lived
 
She made her way
Cane in hand
A wavering carriage
A determined girl
​
Oh Me Oh My (Lawrence/Waller)
Katie’s in Sacramento, Richie’s in Saskatoon
She paints the sunlight, He sings to the moon
 
They met while he was playing on the road through her hometown
He overheard her laughing, She was drawn to his mournful sound
 
Oh me oh my
Only stars hang in the sky
 
Smiling over breakfast, thrift store afternoon
2-step after supper, kissing in the room
 
Katie dropped her lipstick in the backseat of the car
Richie’s in the mirror headin for the bar
 
Oh me oh my
Only stars hang in the sky
 
She came to paint his music, he found her in a song
The distance would not break them, as night and day belong
 
She would not leave her easel, as he sang from room to room
Katie’s in Sacramento, Richie’s in Saskatoon
 
Oh me oh my
Two shining stars in a lonely sky
 
Oh me oh my
Two shining stars in a lonely sky
Big Fun
Why can’t I have fun
Why can’t I have big fun
Why can’t I have big fun with you
Why do I feel blue
Not quite sure what to do
Somehow I can’t get close to you
 
Do you ever wonder, this cloud I’m under
Can’t you hear the thunder in my brain
I’ve got some real dreams, some clear blue sky dreams
I wanna make my dreams come true
 
Why can’t I feel good
Not quite as good as I could
Why can’t I feel real good with you
Why can’t I feel right
Feels like I’ve just lost sight
Can’t see my way through to you
 
I’ve got some nice stuff, times really aren’t so tough
I can’t say that life’s been all that bad
And who’d a ever thunk it, I’d just as soon junk it
If I could just laugh out loud with you
 
Why can’t I have fun
Some walkin on clouds type fun
Why can’t I have some fun with you
Why can’t I have fun
Some dancin in the rain kinda fun
Why can’t I have big fun with you

Leaving You (Lawrence/Lacques/Ginsburg)
​Sorry to say oh
And that was the way
Alone in the breeze
We were dancing
Turning from you
with my heart turning blue
I look at the sky
Through red windows
 
One lonely day
Just like over the seas
Lost like your smile in the millions
Memory sinks like a stone in green fields
26 clouds and I won’t turn around
 
Ooweoo heaven so blue as I
Ooweoo leaving you
Ooweoo heaven so blue as I
Ooweoo leaving you
 
Heaven so blue somewhere above the clouds
I will love you way up above the clouds
Heaven so blue way way up above the clouds
 
Sorry to say oh
And that was the way
Alone in the breeze
We were dancing
Turning from you
with my heart turning blue
I look at the sky
Through red windows
 
​Ooweoo heaven so blue as I
Ooweoo leaving you
Ooweoo heaven so blue as I
Ooweoo leaving you

The Poetry of Lust
Along the wall through an open door
I saw you move across the floor
No warning or consent
Your message sent
No doubt
 
No words spoken as eyes connect
Enveloped by your rhythmic scent
An instant recognition
falling to submission
I should go
 
Show me
Know me
Fate that controls me
No more lonely
Only we matter now
 
To have and to hold plays on my mind
Haunted by a shame that finds
Your heart, my soul
Come or go
Who’s to know
 
I kissed your lips and the line is crossed
Young lover’s vows and compass lost
The sacrifice of love and trust
The poetry of lust
 
Show me
Know me…….
​

InFable
No look down now
can’t you hear the sound of greed
seeds breed bloody money
Statutory wise guys think we live by a spin of lies
Frostbite oversight underwater hotter blotter
say so no snow roaches rule the rim
Head inserted heat inverted
Never breathe again
 
Beat you beat me
main course celebrity 3D….. Television
Hate surrounds confounds compounds the road strode frontal lobe
Red pills blue pills morning buns ablaze with glaze
Sugar coated body bloated reservation EMT
 
Virtual seething acrimonious eavesdropping
Orwell’s sensory sight
Online screen time grey cells undermined
Download jet set stratospheric credit check
Joy stick simulation private setting fabrication
Mind sucking soul sapping avenue
 
Batten down the hatches tighten up the junk
dig the punk hip hop sing a mighty song
There’ll be no hiding we surviving
rising from a wasted sea
me see you visionary ever present
moving at the speed of trees
trees, trees, trees, TREES
​

Lone Freighter's Wail (Bonneville)
I am the lone freighter’s wail
echoing on my way
 
I wail for the old man alone on the porch
looking back on
what is no more
yonder a tombstone
in the shade of a tree
wild flowers for
company
 
I am the lone freighter’s wail
echoing on my way
 
I wail through the steeple
where the brass bell waits
along the river
carving it’s way
I wail through the junction
where nobody lives
over and under
inside the low wind
I wail for the drifter
who is like me
no direction
or sure place to be
 
I am the lone freighter’s wail
echoing on my way

The Wonderful Waltz (Lawrence/Lacques)
The day had come for which there was no tomorrow
And everyone’s plans were suspended
The sun and moon prepared a toast but they spilled the glass
And everyone’s dreams were remembered
 
Out on the floor all the words were familiar to sing along
Some hesitated but some did a wonderful waltz
The wonderful waltz
 
The shadows fell so long and hearts still unspoken
Were crying so loud to the ones that they loved and they rested
The darkness made sweet promises to the children
To stay out as long as they pleased
 
Out in the fields mighty signals were launched and they all came home
The boys wiped their feet and they all did a wonderful waltz
The wonderful waltz
 
Darlin take my hand
Soon it will all come back to me
Just how we hurt each other so
Oh but that moment escapes me
World history’s fading
Spinning away as we all do a wonderful waltz
The wonderful waltz
 
The Day will come for which there is no tomorrow
And everyone’s dreams will return to the scene of that evening
 
Home from the fields with the sun and the moon in the weary sky
Later that evening we’d all do a wonderful waltz
The wonderful waltz
I Believe in You
If i could dream a life for you                         
no harm would come your way          
Only joy and gratitude
would rest within your heart
Imagination guides your curious mind
as wonder grows
the world unfolds
And spirit soars through love
And love is never bound by pain
Only time will tell your fate in this
A world adverse to truth
 
So simple now my tiny child
I hold you in my arms
Eyes intent on light and shade
color soon to be revealed
My fears may go unchecked
I know I’m filled with dread
and love
and fear
and hope
and love
 
What dreams?
What cost?
What heart?
What trust will you retain? 
 
Memories live on mantlepiece
a moment frozen still
Reminding me of time and place
untouched by grief
unharmed by pain
There’s nothing I can do
Save share my love with you
And let you find your way in this
a world defined by hope
 
What dreams, What cost, What heart, What trust will you retain
What dreams, What cost, What heart, what trust will you retain
 
I believe in you
