GOTTA MOVE

Sunday, July 31st, 2011

Gotta move, gotta get out
Gotta leave this place, gotta find some place
Some other place, some brand new place
Some place where each face that I see
Won’t be staring back at me
Telling me what to be and how to be it
Some place where I can just be me
Gotta move, got to get out
Gotta leave this town, gotta find...

Lessons To Be Learned

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

They say
there’s a universal plan
for every woman
for every man
I do believe
there’s a higher power
but in our darkest hour
it’s hard to understand
so we start to question
start to doubt
we lose faith in what life’s all about
why did the right road
take the wrong turn...

Status Quo

Monday, May 2nd, 2011

Performed by Barbra Streisand

Are you ready to hear your lesson for the day?
-Yes, Teacher! Yes, Teacher!
Are you ready to learn what History has to say?
-Yes, Teacher! Yes, Teacher!
Then take your books and follow me to 1776 AD
And as the History page is turned we will see what we can learn

ON MY WAY TO YOU

Sunday, May 1st, 2011

So often as I wait for sleep
I find myself reciting
The words I’ve or should have said
Like scenes that need rewriting
The smiles I never answered
Doors perhaps I should have opened
Songs forgotten in the morning
I relive the roles I’ve played
The tears I may have squandered
The many pipers I have...

Papa, Can You Hear Me?

Sunday, April 10th, 2011

PRAYER
God – our heavenly Father.
Oh, God – and my father
Who is also in heaven.
May the light
Of this flickering candle
Illuminate the night the way
Your spirit illuminates my soul.

Papa, can you hear me?
Papa, can you see me?
Papa, can you find me in the night?

Papa, are you near me?
Papa,...

If I never met you

Thursday, March 10th, 2011

If I never met you
If I never saw your face
This world, this world would be a colder place, I bet.
If we’d never met…

If I never met you
If I never knew your love
My life, my life might be a sad song of regret.
If we’d never met…

But we said one "Hello."
And look at how...

EVERGREEN

Monday, February 28th, 2011

Love, soft as an easy chair;
love, fresh as the morning air.
One love that is shared by two,
I have found with you.

Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow.
Love ageless and evergreen,
seldom seen by two.

You and I will make each night a first,
ev’ry day a beginning.

SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE (SILENT NIGHT)

Thursday, November 11th, 2010

We’re all very lucky, I think. The night is lovely. ‘Cause last night it was so humid. But tonight it’s very sort of, in a strange way, peaceful…

Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in...

ABSENT MINDED ME

Friday, October 22nd, 2010

Absent minded me
Absent minded me
I’m losing a key
Or missing a glove
Just like me to lose my love
Gotta find it, absent minded me
Dizzy dopey me
Mixed-up mopey me
I’m way, way ahead
Of the game then it starts
How did I lose my king of hearts?
Gotta find it, absent minded me
There’s...

WHEN THE SUN COMES OUT

Thursday, October 7th, 2010

When the sun comes out
And the rain stops beating on my window pane
When the sun comes out
There’ll be blue birds ’round my door
Singing like they did before
That old storm broke out
And my man walked off
Left me in the rain
Though he’s gone I doubt
If he’ll stay away for good
I’d...
