By the Sea
It seems likes somethings gone
Does it always feel this way
Been ringing far too long
We have to say
Chances of a dream
Wandering path that calls the future
We’ll have to answer it
One day
And it would be nice to
Have you here with me
We could go out together
Walking by the sea
I know it’s boring
But it won't be that bad
It could be just the thing
The best we ever had
The sun is always bright
Right before the fall
A simple look from you
Reflects it all
The moment now is here
We never are alone
The light that shines in your eyes
Will take us home
And it would be nice to
Have you here with me
We could go out together
Walking by the sea
Now it's pouring
But it won't be that bad
It could be just the thing
The best we ever had

A Future Past
The birth of a mother
The death of a son
The light from a candle
Together as one
Passing through moments
A turn of the page
We live in the time
And place of this age
A flicker of hope
In the light up ahead
A glow in the window
A moment of dread
It holds promise and danger
And sound on the wing
A possible chance
Of another lost dream
And we see that sometimes
The past Is not the past
The future starts tomorrow but
Can it last
Reflections on pages
That were never seen
A moment of truth
The chance of a dream
As the leaf blows above
Swiftly crushed in the stream
Beneath the branch and the bird
And the song that he sings
And we realize
The past Is just the past
The future starts tomorrow but
Can it last

Shadow City
Taking my skeleton for a walk
To find something to fill my dread
I wish I could teach this dog to talk
To help the voices inside my head
Time to go on now nothing is free
Clocks passing out of the window
Running by me
In the shadow of the city
And rising water rain
With a streetlight on the moment
We wash away the pain
Face in the crowd walking alone
Facing the face on the sidewalk
It's raining now, moving slow
Traffic lights drifting glow
In the shadow of the city
And rising water rain
With a streetlight on the moment
We wash away the pain
Burning fires calling us home
Tents holding on to our teardrops
We lose ourselves
In the shadow of the city
And rising water rain
With a streetlight on the moment
We wash away the pain

Glass Dream
When I came this way
And I thought of
The shifting words
And the land
As I dipped my hand
In that cool water
I shed a tear
It's been a long time
Since I saw her
The wave goodbye
And the sand
It's not the truth and I'm fine love
It's not the truth and I'm fine love
It's not the truth and I'm fine love
It's not the truth and I'm fine love
I take a breath of the cold blue air
I hold the truth in my hands up there
Torn apart in the world it seems
In my glass dream
I try to see through this pouring rain
Press myself against the pane
And stare into the screen
In my glass dream
When I left it all
And I thought of
The hope I held
In my hand
And I slipped back in
To that cool water
To shed a tear
It's been a long time
Since I saw her
So I wave goodbye
To this land

Somewhere for a Moment
The sound of rain falls
on the window
Wash away unrest
For a moment
Somewhere
Entire cities in peace
See change
For a moment
It's over again
She lays her head to rest
And drifts away
Think back to last summer
Just breathe
And breathe again
It's only thunder
Stay safe
Keep close my friend
Her daughter sleeping
In the next room
So young to be alone
Outside is waiting
Never ending
Now she’s there
Safe at home
Memories
Are hers to keep
Don't be afraid
Nothing lasts too long
Think back to last summer
Just breathe
And breathe again
It's only thunder
Stay safe
Keep close my friend
The sound of planes call
Through the window
Hailing down unrest
For a moment
Somewhere
Entire countries in peace
See change
For a moment
It's over again
She lays her head to rest
She drifts away

Winter Garden
Walking together in the winter garden
side by side arm against arm
The dry remains of summer
are lost beneath our feet
Just like our love
Just like our love
Once it was a thing of beauty
Beginning like all things must do
I guess we were young
At least for a time
Just like our love
Just like our love
Time has a way of blurring lines
Nothing really left to say
Sorrow and the tears we cried
It's our old song
Just like our love
Just like our love

Red Flower
In the warm glow
Of the sun
A heartbeat keeps
it’s slow rhythm
Right in time
With the passing time
A warm breeze
Washes over the field
It gently flows
In a sea of color
Taking part
In a symphony
Play the music of the red flower
A longing for possibility
Feel the motion dance the hour
A moment in an eternity
As night falls
And the moon rises
A soft light and a present glow
The spirits dance
To a slow rhythm
An earthly show of sympathy
A cool breeze
Washes over the field
It gently flows
In a sea of shade
Taking part
In a harmony
Play the music of the red flower
A longing for possibility
Feel the motion dance the hour
A moment in an eternity

Signals
No sound
He sits alone
Staring at the night sky
We hope
We dream
We pray
He tests the receiver
And listens to the array
We are here
We are alive
He calls up to the stars
So vast
So cold
We just need to know
Waiting for a signal
Until then
We are
Alone
No sound
He sits alone
Stares at the night sky
With hope
We dream
We pray
