RENDEZVOUS
The night is young, the time is right
Don’t say you won’t, just say you might
There’s only one place we could go
And let our hidden feelings show
Into the darkness of our dreams
Where all our fantasies grow wings
And fly away into the reaches of our hearts
Somewhere before the hour of dawn
When we have gone where we don’t belong
Something that feels so right somehow can be so wrong
The morning comes, the night is gone
The tangled web we weave is strong
There is no place for us to hide
And throw our cautions all aside
Into the darkness of our dreams
Where all our fantasies grow wings
And fly away into the reaches of our hearts
Somewhere before the hour of dawn
When we have gone where we don’t belong
Something that feels so right somehow can be so wrong
If we had met elsewhere in time
Another point along the line
Another place, another space
Where both our worlds would not collide
Into the darkness of our dreams
Where all our fantasies grow wings
And fly away into the reaches of our hearts
Somewhere before the hour of dawn
When we have gone where we don’t belong
Something that feels so right somehow can be so wrong

DAGGERS
Funny that love can make one act this way
Funny how anger can make one feel so betrayed
You throw me daggers & they make me bleed
Wound me with words designed by demons that you need set free
Those flying daggers
Make me bleed
Attempts at reason simply turn into a plead
Stab me with words
That you have honed
Until they cut right to the bone with no compassion
So strange that love can make you hurt
So strange how love can make you cry for hours
So strange that love can make you hate
So strange how anger turns your love to daggers
Seems like a battle of intensity
Where love is being subdued quite easily
As anger overcomes the love we need
You sling your daggers with intent to make me bleed

CARNIVORE
Selling your soul for pennies on the dollar
Lacking the human touch
Loyalty isn’t high on your list of things
And scruples don’t count for much
The carnivore does what he pleases
Methodically plans his attack
And while you lay lifeless, he teases
And picks at the flesh on your back
Getting your kicks by bringing others to their knees
How does your garden grow?
Stepping all over people who’ve been good to you
And many that you don’t know
The carnivore does what he pleases
Methodically plans his attack
And while you lay lifeless, he teases
And picks at the flesh on your back

EVERYTHING IS WRONG
Like a wounded bird in flight
Up against the wind
Stretching his wings before the night
Engulfs the light again
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Without you
Like a boat without a sail
Drifting aimlessly
Lacking direction or control
Devoid of destiny
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
Without you

LATELY
There’s an on-going battle raging deep inside of me
My heart and my brain always tend to disagree
It’s a long & winding road & I don’t know the way
It seems it gets less clearer every single day
And I feel that…
Lately
Everything is getting so confusing
Lately
Every time I choose I end up losing
Lately
I keep thinking back when days were simpler
Lately
I just want to spend all of my time with you
Maybe this is yet another turning point for me
But this one might just get me to the place I want to be
Maybe I’m already there and I just need to start
Letting go the brain & then listening to the heart
But I feel that…
Lately
Everything is getting so confusing
Lately
Every time I choose I end up losing
Lately
I keep thinking back when days were simpler
Lately
I just want to spend all of my time with you
Maybe I have found the right door & I just need to use the key
Maybe I will need to listen to my heart eventually
When I’m with you all the world is fine
I just want to spend all of my time with you

LATELY
Tuesday… you are the one that defies all the odds
Tuesday… you’re heaven sent, you’re a gift from the gods
Pretty white bow with your face all aglow
I can tell you’ve been dreaming tonight
Powder blue eyes with a hint of surprise
As your negligee slips to the floor
Tenderly loving me, who could want anything more?
Tuesday… merely a woman who knows what she wants
Tuesday… essence of beauty that she never flaunts
Lingering traces of far away places
And secrets kept locked up inside
Playfully taunting, but desperately wanting
To show I’m the one you adore
Warm scented candles and rose petals strewn on the floor
Tuesday… shining example of grace under fire
Tuesday… lilting and lovely, you more than inspire
Pretty white bow with your face all aglow
I can tell you’ve been dreaming tonight
Powder blue eyes with a hint of surprise
As your negligee slips to the floor
Tenderly loving me, who could want anything more?
Every day’s Tuesday, now who could want anything more?

NOTHING TO SAY
Now that I’ve picked myself up off the floor
Excuse me for wanting to even the score
I need some answers, and you’ve got nothing to say
Maybe you’re thinking that I’m King of the Fools
Biding my time while you break all the rules
Bad as you wanna be, now I’ve got something to say
If playing with fire is what’s turning you on
Here, I’ve been worried ‘bout coming on too strong
Beggars and choosers, well we’ve all been there before
Nothing to say…
Cast me aside like I’m yesterday’s news
Knowing you cheated makes me come all unglued
I’ve got your number, still you’ve got nothing to say
As sure as the sun sets, honey you’re gonna pay
You better believe every dog has his day
Never knew anyone with such moral decay
Now I’ve got nothing to say

THE FLOW
It all starts to flow
It starts to move
It starts to groove
And always quickens up the pace
Somehow it begins
And never ends
No one knows when
The river runs in many ways
Spiraling away
All out of phase
Lost in the haze
Nothing but delays
It never pays
A fiery blaze is burning up inside me
Show me all the love I need to feel
Show me every broken heart has healed
And every one is happy
Tell me this damn world is winding down
Tell me everything I need to hear
And everything I fear …
It all starts to flow
It’s in the mix
There is no fix
The party’s just about to end
Take it as it comes
The bitter pill
Do what you will
There’s no use trying to pretend
….is not what it seems
Segway to my stolen dreams
Night turns to day
Run away…

MONEY CHANGES EVERYTHING
There was a time when I was down and out
And everything in life was looking dark and scary
Didn’t know what it was all about
The future looked so very ordinary
Compromising, rearranging…
…Life
You know that it is changing
Money changes everything
All your values are exchanged as
Money changes everything
Like it’s been throughout the ages
Money changes everything
Feeling lost and waiting to be found
Trying to make it through another desperate night
Feeling kicked around and dragged along the ground
Hoping money really could help win this fight
Waking from another nightmare
…Life
You know that it is changing
Money changes everything
All your values are exchanged as
Money changes everything
Like it’s been throughout the ages
Money changes …
Everything you own is on your back
Your soul’s derailed, it’s off the track
The morning train leaves home at ten
Maybe you can try for luck again and…
…Life
You know it will be changing
Money changes everything
All your values will exchange as
Money changes everything
Like it’s been throughout the ages
Money changes everything

OUT OF THE NIGHT
Waiting for the night to fall
Into my life
Dreading that the fall will bring
End to the light
Out of the night
It comes out of darkness
Embedded with fright
Turning to madness
Goodbye to sanity
This is our destiny
Watching the world come undone
Sinking too deep
Into the night
Turning the pages one by one
Looking for dawn
Struggling to get
Out of the night
Waiting for the stars to fall
Down from the sky
Losing sight of lines between
All truths and lies
Out of the night
Sensing the sadness
Nothing feels right
Needy for one-ness
Eager for daybreak
Is this our final fate?
Watching the world come undone
Sinking too deep
Into the night
Turning the pages one by one
Looking for dawn
Struggling to get
Out of the night

LOVE IS ONLY TALKED ABOUT
World going round in a circle
Sun burning high in the sky
Can’t figure out what we’re here for
So we go on believing the lies
Hate is the game being played now
Deception’s the slogan they cry
But love is only talked about
Love is only talked about
Caught in a state of confusion
No one knows where to run
Everyone seeking solutions
Everyone under the gun
Some claim that they know the answer
But talk is all they seem to love
All is the same as it ever was
Alibis run without end
Probing excuses for probable cause
Societal relations transcend
Details the devil relies on
Nothing is said that offends
So love is only talked about
Love is only talked about

FOREVER
I...
I need to run & hide
Don’t need to see my world
Collide
I want to scream & shout
Don’t want to breathe if it’s without
Don’t want to live if there is doubt
That love will return and my heart won’t burn…
…forever
Counting the hours
That turn to days
While I just try to find the….
Ways
I can survive
You...
You sit inside my room
You never know my heart
Has wounds
Time passes by and heals
You’ll never know just how it feels
Because you never knew love could be real
And when you walk away My heart will burn…
…Forever, forever, forever, forever
I want to scream & shout
Don’t want to breathe if it’s without
Don’t want to live if there is doubt
That love will return and my heart won’t hurt…
…forever
Counting the hours
That turn to days
While I just try to find the…
Ways
I can survive…
Counting the hours
That turn to days
While I just try to find the…
Ways
I can survive…
…forever, forever, forever, forever

THE LAST SONG
I felt you slipping through my hands
And slowly lost it all
Broken feelings, broken plans
And a broken soul
This is the last song that I write
There’ll be no more rhymes on a lonely night
This is the last song that I write for you
There once was faith, there once was hope
But it’s all be swept away
Remnants of elusive love
And tattered dreams allayed
No sad swan song in the background
And no violins
No last rites, no ceremonies
As we near the end
This is the last song that I sing for you
There’ll be no more good times
There’ll be no more sunshine
This is the last song that I dance with you
There’ll be no more pretending
That everything is fine
