Away from Here

 

Away from here my love

to a place where I can breathe

My heart is lost in yours my love 

The coldness over me

 

Behold your heart awakes in mine Oh

before I say goodbye

 

Away from here my soul

Where the love and kindness meet (roam)

I know my heart is true my love

for this grace I prey for (to) you

 

Behold my heart awakes inside mmmm

Before I say oh goodbye

 

I don’t believe that things will ever change

Please give me a reason and strength to find another way  

oh why’m I feeling so guilty 

for things that can’t shift into another gear 

Oh why’m I cold and I’m crazy

gonna kill myself waiting on another way

I  remember feeling something, but away, away, away Oh from here

 

Away from here my love

Where the love and kindness flow

Behold your heart awakes in mine oh

Before the leaves say goodbye

Beth

 

Oh so sing it out loud my sweet memories

and see how the love she has grown.

You see my faith and my courages well has run dry

and my fingers are worked way to the bone.

I believe in a future that’s tattered and torn

Oh and I know in my heart cause she’s heavy like stone.

 

So I’ll ride ride ride oh into the night…

Yes I’ll ride in this pale moonlight…

 

So shiver me timbers oh this world has grown odd,

take me back to a time before demons and Gods.

When loves all it took to make the planet revolve,

oh and wisdom was measured from stories of old.

I’ve seen things that would make most men weak at the knees.

Oh but still my love stays strong after all of these years.

 

So I’ll ride ride ride in this pale moonlight…

Yes I’ll ride ride ride into the night…

 

Oh So lead  me beside the still waters my friend,

and restore my weary soul from this day till the end

For she art with me in this life and the next.

 

Oh So hold on, never let go.

I’ll be there for you, like never before.

I’ve been told it’ll only grow cause I’m always with you now…you

Oh so homeless is all that I got from this storybook, 

So close to your heart.

I feel older now than ever, 

so wait for me now you, you oh wait for me now.

 

Oh so sing it out load my sweet memories,

and see how the love she has grown.

You see my faith and my courages well has run dry oh,

And my fingers are worked way to the bone.

I’ve seen things that would make most men weak at the knees,

but still my love stays strong after all of these years.

And I’ll ride ride ride oh into the night…

Oh I’ll ride in this pale moonlight…

Jet Black Woman

 

Take me back to the river

and all that I know

Cause life on the road is getting hard sometimes

Baby yes  I know

 

Well the rivers gonna flow boy

No matter which way it goes

The bottle gets heavier 

The more, the more that I know

 

I don’t want no dead black woman no

Oh she do me

I don’t want no dead black woman no 

She do me 

 

Said Oh Jesus gonna be here

He’s gonna be here real soon

Except for drinking

Oh and you knew that I would

 

Won’t you look into my eyes boy

One more time

Like the sweet days beside me

Before, Before you were gone

 

I don’t want no sugar in my coffee

It makes me so mean

No sugar in my coffee

It makes me so damn mean

 

Oh woman won’t you please understand

I want be you sweet loving man

Oh won’t you please come back, come back, come back

And take me back on home

 

I’ve been waiting for your precious love

Means more to me

Than any love could ever be

All I want is you

I was so lonely and so blue

But all that’s love could make me do

 

I don’t want no sugar in my coffee

Oh it makes me so mean

No sugar in my coffee

It makes me mean

 

Wrote this song in New Orleans Yeh

In the shade of and old Cypress tree

I got my baby here with me

Ain’t no place I’d rather be

 

Not what I'd Imagined

 

I’ve been waiting for a sign

A little oh something to show me the way back home

And it feels like in over my head

I can’t breathe no a single breath

And if I asked you oh to stay

Would you lay it down beside my cold heart today

Cause I been wonder yeh what this means

These cold shivers oh and this lucid dream

Oh save me from this hell

These cold feelings no they don’t bode me well

And I can’t take it no anymore

Hold my knees rocking back and forth on this floor

 

When I was just a little child 

My mother looked into my eyes

And she said son don’t be afraid 

And I believed it would be okay

 

And then I grew a little more

I left the nest and went to war

I learnt to live a soldiers day

Since then i’ve never been the same lord

 

Somehow I became not what I’d imagined

 

You learnt to live you learn to cry

You learn that life will pass you by

Most of your dreams will turn to dust

And what you thought you’d love is lost

 

Somehow I’ve become not what I’d imagined 

 

Oh mama please don’t look so sad 

It’s not you fault the world turned bad

I don’t expect you’d understand

I know its not the way you planned it

 

And it was  on a winters day

The sun grew cold and it went away

It turned a different shade of black

It turned to night and it’s never coming back

​

Frequency

 

Hold on, you gotta just let it go, there’s no time for us

To keep on paying attention to this Goddam show

You gotta keep on moving on

You’ve gotta dance to the rhythm of a different song

cause we all gotta make an effort to get along

Theres’ a space on this earth for everyone

 

But I can’t hold back now 

Since I got you attention

Oh the frequency got so loud 

that I may have forgotten to mention

that you don’t have to fight anymore

With our connection

 

You gotta  just hold on and take a deep breath

and let it out again

There’s no point in hanging on to all this stress

You gotta learn just to trust in love

You gotta look to the gods above

You gotta know when to say enough

There’s a space on this earth but it can get rough

 

And I can’t hold back now 

Since I got all of your attention

Oh the frequency got so loud 

That I may have forgotten to mention

That you don’t have to fight anymore

With our connection

 

Oh and I’ll hold your hands love

I ain’t never gonna let em’ go

I believe in the gods above

And I would stand in this fire with you 

and not get burned

 

I went down to the river on a song and prayer

and I thought to myself while eyes standing there

No…I can’t go out this way

I floated all the way down on the oceans tide

With all of Gods children at my side

But…still I was afraid

Oh and I floated all the way down on the ocean tide

With ten thousand horses at my side 

But still I was afraid

Oh and then I knew all of what I knew I had to do

To all have the strength for all of you 

and stand up and be brave 

and just let it go

just let i go

Oh let it go 

Just let it flow

 

Hold on cause your time will come

There’s a space on this earth

where you know what you’re worth

you’ve been staring at the sun

You gotta trust in the Gods above

Oh you’ve gotta listen to the language of love

You’ve gotta know when to say enough my friend

There’s a space on this earth but it can get rough

 

And I can’t hold back now 

Since I got all of your attention

Oh the frequency got so loud 

that I may have forgotten to mention

that you don’t have to fight anymore

With our connection

You don’t have to fight anymore with our reception

No you don’t have to fight

You don’t have to fight anymore

​

Josie

 

I put it in a song cause I know that you'll feel it

its all or nothing, or nothing at all

It's been far too long to even remember

But not a day goes that I can't recall and...

 

And Is it okay to say I love you and still?

And is it okay to say I miss you and I will?

And is it okay...to say nothing at all?

 

Oh Josie there's so much to tell ya

theres things that I wish I'd told you before

And Its true what they say you don't know till you loose it

And when it's gone there's just nothing at all so...

 

And Is it okay to say I need you and still

And Is it okay to have hope and I will

And is it okay...to say nothing at all

 

All this time eyes searching for somebody new

and I cant feel anything but love for you still

But I don't know 

which way to turn

cause I can't feel at all

hell nothing at all

 

So here we go!

Love love you always and in everyday

Love love you in that same old passionate way

It'll never be over until till end days

 

So is it okay to say I love you and still

Oh Would you do the same if I asked you and I will

Oh then perhaps we not that different at all

 

And is it okay my darlin’

And is it okay if i still fall in love

every-time I hear you name

​

Leap of Faith

 

Come a little closer lest you’re feeling in doubt 

And I’ll open up your smile again

Let love come rushing out

You better believe

Let me take you and wash those tears from your eyes

And I’ll promise you everything  you’ve ever dreamed about

 

And I swear to you this dance will last a thousand memories

And I’ll pull you closer, so’s to make your heart believe

Yes I’ll lay it down in a field of gold

Stretch the truth don’t never told

You won’t never ever have to fear

I’ll pull you closer 

 

Somehow

 

Oh so beautiful in everyday

And every-time you smile that way

The corner of your lips unfurl

The moment I’ve been waiting, waiting, waiting

For I begin, Oh in the state that I’ve been in

In the early hours when all is still

But not until your world unfolds

And truth be told, no beauty that man deserves

My tongue beneath you precious curves

 

As time stood still

Have I made this moment last forever 

And could I still feel this way

And, pull you close and promise never

To take it and throw it all away

 

So come on take a leap of faith

Rise up in this empty space

Come hide behind my silly smile

And rest your weary heart…next to mine

 

I love you…Unbroken

and I need you…Softly spoken

That you were my first love

Spending all my time with you

That you never gave up

Makes me love you so much more

And I can’t help but feel so proud

To have you by my side

Don’t ever want to loose this love it feels so right

Don’t ever want to loose this love, stay with me tonight

Don’t ever want to loose this love, I wanna hold you so tight

Don’t ever want to loose this love

​

Together we are Lost

 

Well you win some oh and you loose some you ain’t never the same

When your heart is on your sleeve and you lay your hat to blame

It gets lonely in the saddle and my pony has grow old

Been far too many nights my darlin’ left out in the cold

and together we are lost

 

I got used to all those swinging doors

Those dusty towns and the brothel whores

I guess it’s time I settled the score, and the weight that I have lost

She’ll be anything oh you want her if you whisper in her ear

And if you close your eyes real tight Oh she might just feel like home

 

I’ll go back and rest a living from that big old cypress swamp

Oh and you know that I’ll die happy if I want

Cause I done and lived a good life can’t run water back upstream

No you can’t turn back the tide if you know what I mean

 

For this whiskey bottle ain’t no way to seek

this dream that I’ve been chasing seems oh far to out of reach

I wanna go back onto the range and the pleasures of her soul

I wanna taste her bitter sweetness

Oh how I wanna go home

 

I’ll go back and rest a living from that big old cypress swamp

Oh and you know that I’ll die happy if I want

Cause I done and lived a good life can’t run water back upstream      

No you can’t turn back the tide if you know what I mean

 

So if I reach the gates of heaven I’ll hang my head down low

I’ll ask the lords forgiveness to have mercy on my soul

And just maybe then my darlin’ I might be the betterman

And I might even have the chance again to hold your precious hand(s)

Oh and together we are lost

 

Oh so I left town, couldn’t take no more

Found myself where I was before 

and I..watched the sweet sun go down

with my eyes wide open yeh

 

It took some time to find my way home

Oh never once did I feel so alone

when I..realised my faith was stronger than before   

 

Cause you win some oh you loose some

oh you ain’t never the same

when heart is on your sleeve

For together oh we are lost

​

Unrequited

 

Away from this autographed

Sensation of a guilty past

I won’t let this feeling

No I won’t stop believing

The whole world is turning not me

 

A slow and unforgiving end

No management or government

An unrequited pale fragmented

Sense of something we represented

And all I feel is nothing at all

 

And Oh river won’t you wash this fever 

Give me strength and hope make me a firm believer

Of something that won’t feel so deceiving

Of a  world where i can make believe in 

the whole world is turning not me

 

And as I rise to meet my maker

With my pale reflection and my fading makeup

A shadow of my former self 

A prisoner to my fading health

I close my eyes and all i see is you 

 

And Oh river won’t you wash this fever 

Give me strength and hope make me a firm believer

Of something that won’t feel so deceiving

Of a world where i can make believe in 

the whole world is turning not me

 

And slowly as we turn to stone

The blade that cuts through flesh and bone

I’m tired of always feeling lonely

My need for someone to console me

In a world where everything turns but just not me

​

Radiate

 

For what it’s worth my friend it’s never too late

To be what you wanna be, your fate is what you create

You can change or stay the same

There are no rules to this thing

You can always make the best of it

It’s never too late

No it’s never too late

 

Sometimes you get restless

Sometimes you just can’t wait

Be patient and listen, your spirit will guide you always

You’ve heard this all before

And you don’t need anything else at all

The answer is hidden inside of you

And it’s never too late

 

So gather your children and find your purpose and place

Try to make a difference and join in this spiritual race 

It’s such a small thing to ask

To make these changes last a while

The medicine grows inside of you 

(Oh) and it radiates

 

And I hope you make the best of it

And I hope you feel things that you’ve never felt before

(And) I hope you meet people with a different point of view

And I hope you live a life that you’re proud of and so much more

And if you find that you’re just not getting there

Trust in the music to guide you somewhere

And I hope you’ll find the strength to start over again

All over again

 

I’ve come here to teach you this simple message of grace

Give thanks to the most high in every day that you’re awake 

Show respect to your elders, and humble your ego or you’ll pay

Enlighten your conscience, and practice forgiveness always

Be a positive influence to all

No matter how big or small it is

It starts from deep within your

And it radiates

 

All that I can do

Is lay it on down oh the line for you

And tell you my friend that i love you so

Won’t you open up your heart and let it grow and it’ll grow

And take it home just for what it Is

Oh and it’ll Radiate

 

Oh oh oh oh 

Yes it’ll Radiate 

Your fate is what you create

Oh you just gotta have faith

Yes it’ll radiate

Yes it’ll radiate

It’ll radiate
