how I luv the changing of the seasons..the first snowfall makes me feel melancholy,and turns my feelings inward..the world dressed in white..so clean and pure..and a new season begining .. I prefer to see the good in it all....how quietly it all comes,...... how silently it changes the surroundings, like a artist with a brush....it sweeps over my feelings ,and my wish to share it with you.

I have walked with faces that knew my heart... I have stood on mountains sooooo high,I thought I was in heaven... I have stepped lightly,with a foot in the ocean,and wondered of my own place in the universe..... I have traveled my road ,one step at a time,without compass,or map...... I have played the games of men,and had my winnings and losses... I have marked my time, and left nothing behind but a memory, to show of my being there...I have made my mistakes,and had my triumphs,........won my wars,and loss some battles...and..each time ,took my scars,and crowns in humbled silence...at times,i have tasted the sweetness of my own tear..but.. I never felt so alone ,as the moment you touched my hand,and walked away! ...I have heard it said..that love is the reason, for our next breath... I somehow disbelieve it all...and..the thoughts of this uneducated, ragged , lost heart would only guess to say .....* I think,"love" is the *outcome* of the next breath...and *you* were the reason !

lonely is the heart that doesnt know the seasons..and quiet is the touch that cant hear its call.

I'm on bended knee?..alabama moon......... it would make me blue..but..I'll thank you too.....................................................................................................................................................................some .....sunny day

#1.. I met myself a grey old man,many years ago...tho his body was bent , his spirit seemed to soar,so I stoped him on the street..I said I had to know,the secret that you have of growing old ... #2.. His eyes seemed to dance,and he laughed right out loud..his trembling old hand,pushed his hat back from his brow...A crowd seemed to gather as he leaned on his cane...here's what the old man had to say...(chorus)...I'll sing,a happy song today....I'll laugh,I'll take some time to play... I'll sing...even in the rain you know, I'll sing such a happy song today *.....(bridge)...he said..."people seem to think that life is like the rain...always falling down.,...to me its more the sound of a merry-go-round..what goes around comes around.....and around and a round." ...# 3 ... He shuffled right on by me,and did a little step....he winked at the ladies,tiped his hat to the rest...strolled down to the corner,turned with a pause...smiled...and he was Gone ! ..... # 4 ..and now that he's gone I fondly recall,and I think I *more* than understand....to try to find that song ,in everthing I do ?..to keep alive a boy in the man.....sooooooooooooooooooooo ( chorus)..I'll sing a happy song today....I'll laugh,I'll take some time to play....I'll sing,even in the rain you know...I'll sing such a happy song today.. ! ! !

>He was a man of gentle persuasions, a simple man of quiet designs.. He was a man as easy as the laughter, that could warm the coldest winters night ... He was a man who spoke in quiet passions, in the seasons that caressed the lonely heart...with ways as hard as stone,and a touch that was left alone.. is it over ,or only just a start ? * Ask the dust, that settles on his lifetime..?..ask the wind, that came and helped him grow..? ask the years that governed his wearied wisdom..? ask his friends, for only 'they' would know *! ! ! ..... He was shy, like the he was,he was bold and searched where dreams will grow.... his vision took him from the farthest star, to find what the heart already knows.....was he tall ?... no not really. ! ... was he handsome ?.. some might say so ! was he good ? was he bad ? was he happy ? was he sad ? ... to all these things I really don't know ! ! ....* Ask the dust... that settles on his lifetime.... ask the wind, that came and helped him grow... as the years that goverened his wearied wisdom...ask his friends... how they miss him so ! ! !

Was it the eyes ? that seem to express a joy for life,or a secret that will never be told ? or the cheeks, so firm and ready to receive a kiss ,given so freely from some valant knight ? or maybe the nose,so cute and pinchable ? or was it the mouth?so soft and tender,expressing the words that so many men would want to hear ? or that gorgeous hair,the kind that poets have tried and failed to describe ? *I dont know*.. all I know is she is beautiful.. Men have played the part of a fool just to be near her..fought wars to win her honor.Rich men have given fortunes,and kings thrones to be in love for even an hour with her ! .. but,she is unapproachable to us poor vagabonds..for I have only my calloused hands to extend to her.only feeble words to warm her,and only a hobos heart to be used by her..So I dont stand in line for a chance at this beautiful creature..I pass by the long line of kings,knights,and knoblemen..and tread my weary way..For a princess does not dance with hobos,or kiss frogs anymore..those are just nighttime fables,given to the young ,to help them sleep a peaceful sleep..but,lucky are the ones gazed upon by her,precious are the moments when she calls your name....*IF* I had a wish to spend ?..not for the world,but only for me ,for myself ?..I wish I had the ability,and the moment,to be before her on bended knee..extend my ragged heart,in these trembling hands..and wisper so softly that maybe only the ghosts of lost loves could hear ......."I surrender to you "

#1..Roll along you lazy river,roll along and I find!..Nothing quite as lovely, as the time spent by your side...You fill me with a feeling ,that only you can do..The time I spend away,only brings me back to you ! ....#2 ... Roll along you lazy river,I'm with you here again...seems time stands still when I watch you,and the way you've always been.. A calm fills my outside,and a smile comes deep inside..You've worked your magic once again,*Mississippi peace of mind*..*bridge*..River runs at me, like the people in my way...then always drifts away,like the friends that I've made...sometimes as low as my spirts....sometimes as high as the sky...filling your banks with your water,and hidding the tear in my eye..! .... #3 ....Watch the waters flow by,and wash my cares away....Seems your the only one I know ,to make me feel this way....Your always there to talk to,when ever I'm in a bind...nothing quite as lovely as a *Mississippi peace of mind*... Missisippi take..... my mind...*sigh*

*in my opinion*..my songs try communicate ... anywhere from fantasy to lies ..lol lol lol.. from "made-up" ,to "real" moments in my lifetime..I have had songs born in a moment with the touch of someones hand ? to, a life time learned. !!! .This song *goodbye* is for my father.. who at the robust healthy age of 67yrs..went to the doctor only to be told he had 4 weeks to live!! .. and..it was 4 weeks to the day ,that the ones who loved him carried him to his rest..*tear*.(1990).and...this song has taken me years to finish.. the world has never really been the same since that day, and I seem to look at the world thru a distance now...at an arms length.. I post this song,for those who have lost a loved one,and hope it might help that we *all* have been there.. Tho Dad and I struggled at times between each other,we had become closer thru the years,..and I *DID* get to tell him what I felt.. I miss him. ! ..so..for those who are kind enough to continue reading my lyrics..I can only say...."this is for you Dad"
