CAN YOU FEEL IT

DCD  10/26/2014
 
 
 
You know the time is right, the moment has begun
When its all over someone’s lost, someone else has won
You’ve been ready now, you knew this day would come
There’s a time to fight,  and not much time to run run run
Everyday I find another way I know…
 
Can you feel it, whoa, Tell me can you feel it, whoa…
 
Where you gonna run, where you gonna hide?
Why you in a hurry boy to see what’s on the other side?
Words are always stronger, than the open fist
Yeah it stings a little if you wind up and you miss
Take your shot now boy, you know the time is now…
 
Can you feel it, whoa, Tell me can you feel it, whoa…
 
Ooh your time is now
Where you gonna run, where you gonna hie?
Never gonna get, never gonna get, never gonna get you down
Ooh the time is right, hold your head up high…
 
Can you feel it, whoa, Tell me can you feel it, whoa…
Can you feel it, whoa, Tell me can you feel it, whoa…

Mr DJ, play me that emotion
The times are changin’, where’d you go?
The Lonesome Cowboy, he’s taking us along tonight
Grab your air guitar, you know this song
 
Remember…the blue light glow
Remember…from my radio
 
“Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin’ all my favorite songs
Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin’, we all sing along”
 
Ahh…
 
Mr DJ,  my headphones are hangin’ on
Play my favorite, favorite song
Take me away, direct line to the groove
I’m callin’ in, I’m fallin’ in, what am I to do?
 
Remember…the blue light glow
Remember…from my radio
 
Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin’ all my favorite songs
Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin’, we all sing along
 
Ahh…
 
Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin all my favorite songs
Heard it on the radio
My mind it plays a picture show
DJ’s playin, we all sing along
Heard it on the radio, ahh
Heard it on the radio, ahh
Heard it on the radio, ahh
Heard it on the radio, ahh
 

HOME

DCD  1991-2013
 
Today is the day I see a different sun
Today is the day, my life has just begun
No one else can see the world for me
No one else, has seen what I have seen
I believe that I will always be, the only one who holds the lock and keeps the fragile key
There’s a place that keeps me rollin on, I’m going…
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back…
Today is the day that I don’t mind the rain
Today is the day, I can’t hear the pain
No one else can see the world for me
No one else, I believe oh I believe
I believe that I will always be, the only one who holds the lock and keeps the fragile key
There’s a place that keeps me rollin on, I’m going…
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back…
There’s a place for me and I’m on my way, I’m on my way
Home, goin back home, goin back home
I can close my eyes and see, all the evil wash away from me
The truth is in the heart, you gotta know where to start
I close my eyes and breathe, oh I’m goin home
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
Home, goin back home, goin back…
I gotta be, I gotta be, there’s a place for me and I’m on my way
Home, goin back home, goin back home, oh
 

 PICTURES
 
DCD  2013
 
 
 
Isn’t that you, isn’t that me,? I’m thinking
Something old, something new, I’m missing
 
I remember when, you would hold my hand
Makes me smile to see…
 
Pictures of you, pieces of me…in pictures
Looking at you, looking at me, in pictures
Where’d those days ever have to go?
Could it be, they never left, don’t you know?
Just open up your eyes
Well picture picture on the wall
Who could be the luckiest one of all?
Well maybe it’s just me, in pictures
 
Look at that smile, look at those dreams, I’m wishing
Now who could that be, is it you or is it me? I’m missing…
(well) I remember now
Well somewhere, somehow, I kept all of these…
 
Pictures of you, pieces of me…in pictures
Looking at you, looking at me, in pictures
Where’d those days ever have to go?
Could it be, they never left, don’t you know?
Open up your eyes
Tell me picture picture on the wall
Who could be the luckiest of all?
Well maybe it’s me, in pictures
 
Well who could that be?
You’re right there next to me
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Who’s the luckiest of all?
 
Pictures of you, pieces of me…in pictures
Looking at you, looking at me, in pictures
Pictures of you, pieces of me…in pictures
I get to be right next to you, in pictures
Where’d those days ever have to go?
Could it be, they never left, don’t you know?
Just open up your eyes
Tell me picture picture on the wall
Who could be the luckiest of all?
You know it’s just me, in pictures

PIECES
 
DCD  2/2/2014
 
 
 
You know in your heart
This life that we two share
It is what we make it
It aint always fair
I’m just a man
My dreams don’t make a sound
What’s the use of dreamin’
If you’re not around
 
I, promise this to you, I will mend…
The pages that you give, in the end…
It’s just me again, picking up your…
 
Pieces, tear me into pieces, just when I was leavin, you came to me
With your tattered pages, poetry of rages, counting all the days when,
You were loving me…
 
Give me room to breathe
I’ll take your breath away
Give me time to think
I’ll figure out a way
My hands scarred by time
They’ll hold you forever
And I’ll love you forever, you know, you know that…
 
I, promise this to you, I will mend…
The pages that you give, in the end…
Here I go again, picking up your…
 
Pieces, tear me into pieces, just when I was leavin, you came to me
With your tattered pages, poetry of rages, counting all the days when,
You were loving me…
I love all your pieces…
And  will mend, I will mend…
All the pages that you give me in the end…
I love your pieces…
Give me all your pieces…

SHE LOVES YOU
 
DCD  2013
 
 
 
I bet you wanna run away, live to fight another day
I bet you wanna leave it all behind
 
You said you wanna make it right, another chance to love to fight
Don’t wanna be the one to make it bleed
 
She loves you baby, and he loves you baby
It aint worth losin’, keep on movin’ on
 
I bet you wanna slam the door, don’t wanna play this game no more
I bet you wanna close your eyes and scream
 
Now don’t you throw it all away, you know you love the scars anyway
Don’t you think its time to realize?
 
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya
It aint worth losin’, keep on movin’ on
 
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya
It aint worth losin’, keep on movin’ on
 
If you wanna get you wanna feel that way
If you wanna get you wanna run away
If you wanna get you wanna feel that way
If you wanna get you wanna run away
 
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya
It aint worth losin’, keep on movin’ on
 
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya
It’s worth the fight, so keep on movin’ on
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya
She loves you baby, you know she needs ya
He loves you baby, you know he needs ya

SO GOOD TO SEE YOU

DCD...for Rick...
 
 
Haven’t seen you for a while, I can almost hear you smile
The memories they never fade
Been awhile since you’ve been gone, really doesn’t seem so long
The memories we made
And now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord will let me see you in my dreams
 
It’s so good to see you, my friend
So good to see your face again
If I just close my eyes I see you once again, again
It’s so good to see you…my friend
 
Am I dreaming, are you there? Now I see you everywhere
When I close my eyes
It’s like your never really gone, I see you in every song
We used to sing
 
And now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord will let me see you in my dreams
 
It’s so good to see you, my friend
So good to see your face again
And if I just close my eyes I see you once again, again
 
It’s so good to see you when I close my eyes again
I will meet you halfway if you dare
I don’t know where I don’t know how or when I’ll find you there
 
So good to see you…my friend
So good to see you standing there and I will dream in color now
So good to see you, so good to see you again
And if I just close my eyes I see you, I see you standing there
So good to see you…so good
So good to see you
So good to see you…my friend
 
 

SONG FOR THE LIVING

DCD
 
When you look at me, tell me what you see
Do you see the scars, or do you see me?
When my soul lays down down down, it does not sleep
It does not cry, I’ve seen it weep

And if you take it away, I’ll still be standing here
And if you throw it away, I’ll still be here

Just another day, another chance to face the morning sun
Who will bring the rain today, shower down my soul
And if I fall down down down, will I see you there?
And when I get up, will anyone care?

And if you take it away, I’ll still be standing here
And if you throw it away, I’ll still be here
And if you take it away, I’ll still be standing here
And if you throw it away, I’ll still be here
And if you take it away, I’ll still be standing here
And if you throw it all away, I’ll still be here

You’ll never take it away…

Tell me what you see
Do you see the scars, in my eyes, or do you see me?
 

UNBROKEN
 
January 2014
 
 
 I feel the time has come
And I wont be undone
I’ll never be… no no not me
 
My time has just begun
Bright lights cast shadows
Someone I know… I used to know
 
And it’s my life, my choice to make
If it’s mine it’s real, if it’s yours it’s fake
Hey hey, I said, hey hey, we’ll be one
 
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we all believe
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we only bleed
 
The music is my curse
For better or for worse
I’ll always be, someone like me
 
Still got a lot to give
So much more time to live
Not on my knees, no no not me
 
And it’s my life, my choice to make
If it’s mine it’s real, if it’s your it’s fake
Hey hey, hey hey, we’ll be one
 
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we all believe
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we only bleed
 
If it’s real, If it’s real…we only bleed
 
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we all believe
We are, we are unbroken
We all, we only bleed
