I like 'Bewitched' off the first album because it's one of the happiest songs I've ever written and, as any writer will tell you, happy songs are a million times more difficult to write than sad songs.

The One Who Notices The Earthworms
if you notice how the earthworms
die and you you hear their
last sad songs
the night before
they all perished
on that pavement
at the last hour
when the waters
rise
when you hear
them scream
after their
saddest sighs
the last one
when you
finally hear
their silence
like a
period
of the
long sentence that you have written
i know your name
you are
the poet
from the
line of
issa

Get Along With You
Dont need to paper
Dont need no pencil
Dont need no love letters
Cause I just wanna get along with you
No beeper
Dont need no cellular
No digitals better (listen)
I just wanna get along with you
Try me
Cause I agree
What makes you happy
But the part that I dont get is
Why me
You deny me
Now Im forced upon this planet
Sadly lonely nights Im used to gettin
You took my heartbeat from me
This is the saddest story
What was wrong with my love
You took my heartbeat from me
Was it I loved you poorly
Whatever it was
I just wanna get along with you
Dont need no car
Dont need no truck
Dont need no vehicles
Cause I just wanna get along with you
No planes
Dont need no trains
Dont need to be passenger
Cause I just wanna get along with you
Try me
Cause I agree
What makes you happy
But the part that I dont get is
Why me
You deny me
Now Im forced upon this planet
Sadly lonely nights Im used to gettin
You took my heartbeat from me
This is the saddest story
What was wrong with my love
You took my heartbeat from me
Was it I loved you poorly
Whatever it was
I just wanna get along with you
Dont need new clothes
Dont need this house
Dont need this land or skies
Cause I just wanna get along with you
These eyes
Dont need these thighs
As a matter of fact this damn life
Cause I just wanna get along with you
Try me
Cause I agree
What makes you happy
But the part that I dont get is
Why me
You deny me
Now Im forced upon this planet
Sadly lonely nights Im used to gettin
You took my heartbeat from me
This is the saddest story
What was wrong with my love
You took my heartbeat from me
Was it I loved you poorly
Whatever it was
I just wanna get along with you
You took my heartbeat from me
This is the saddest story
What was wrong with my love
Your took my heartbeat from me
Should have just stabbed it for me
From ashes to dust
I just wanna get along with you
Dear diary
I remember like it was yesterday
It was october 30th
I no longer have any need for these worldly things
I wanna go where he is
Ill follow the fire in the sky
And just like that Ill be gone
You took my heartbeat from me
This is the saddest story
What was wrong with my love
Your took my heartbeat from me
Should have just stabbed it for me
From ashes to dust
I just wanna get along with you

The Old Songs
There goes another one
Another happy couple on the road to emptiness
I think of my father and mother
Can they imagine how two people can get in this mess
But the old songs say - loves forever
And the old songs never say die
But a song cant keep us together
How can that beautiful song be a lie
Me I blame the old songs
Filling hearts with rebellion and romance
Our book of revelations
And all we had to do was dance
Play us another one
Play us the hopes and dreams of twenty years ago
Theyre all over the bloody radio
Its like theyre telling us theres nowhere left to go
And the old songs say - be my baby
And the old songs say - she loves you
All the songs well sing come what may be
I like those songs
But Id like something new
Me I blame the old songs
Protect us all against a change of course
All our great expectations
Turn to alimony and remorse

Happily
Tonight is the mother of all nights
The newlywed couple is about to sail
To glide under the blue lights
The room is full of perfumes and cocktails
Classy Jazz music is playing all right
Unfortunate, this scene is not for sale
Jasmine flowers are scattered all over the bed
They happily consume their love with great
Both were happy
It’s ended
Not too early
And not too late
The feeling was so jaded
Incredibly fascinated
A happy scene like this
Should be sealed with a kiss
A man has been imprisoned
For 15 years
For killing his wife
For the first time in his prison's life
Visited by his five children
Ageing face full of tears
Could not pictured his happiness
The happiest moment
A man could ever wishes
It was spoken
All those years that was amissed
Should be redeem with a token
Of love
No matter how devastating
No matter how intriguing
Was the crime
To bring back all the saddest time
Is not an option
Set aside our emotion
Let’s forgive and be forgiven
Be happy for a moment
I am happy
To see all human race are in unity
No war and no killing spree
Remember we live in this world temporarily
So let’s live in harmony
Leading life peacefully
When was the last time you was happy
Think about it thoroughly
Then only you will know the true meaning of happy
Don’t feel sorry
For not being happy
Sensibly we need to study
The right definition of happiness and happy
How happy is happy?
A person is happy
When most of his life he was happy

Sunday Is The Saddest Day
Sunday is the saddest day
When were apart everything I say
Gets in the way, gets into place
Of how I feel standing face to face
Sunday is the saddest day
All you want
All you breathe
You wont need to find another
Tell me what is wrong
Tell me where we belong
And what we said
Tell me its only in my head
Show me whos to blame
Show me were the same
And where we go
Yeh show me something I dont know
Sunday is the saddest day
Dont give me legends, theyre far too late
Your sweet crusader he got away
I know thats hard to take
Sunday is the saddest day
You dont want
You dont need
Cause its hard to pull together
Tell me what is wrong
Tell me where we belong
And what we said
Tell me its only in my head
Show me whos to blame
Show me were the same
And where we go
Yeh show me something I dont know
Sunday is the saddest day
You pick apart everything I say
Sunday is the sadddest day
All you want
All you breathe
You wont need to find another
Tell me what is wrong
Tell me where we belong
And what we said
Tell me its only in my head
Show me whos to blame
Show me were the same
And where we go
Yeh show me something I dont know
Tell me what is wrong
Tell me where we belong
And what we said
Tell me its only in my head
Show me whos to blame
Show me were the same
And where we go
Yeh show me something I dont know
(sunday is the saddest day)
Yeh show me something I dont know
(sunday is the saddest day)
There must be something I dont know
(sunday is the saddest day)
(when were apart everything I say)
Dont tell me its only in my head
(sunday is the saddest day)

Happy Encounters
Love songs of earth
And fields made
Flowers of new morning birth
Sky tinctures that never fade
A heart of a beating secret
Full of love to you
Nothing in its ways to regret
From inside colors true
Love songs coming by
Every dream of oceans wide
The azures space and sky
In cloudlets drifting and glide
Every thought that comes to be
From hope we know
The world of songs playfully
Like dawn of dewdrops glow
Love songs in each new go
That gives life a new meaning
Every day's ordinary show
From roads of its enduring greening
Spinning slowly on and on
With flowers on the sideways
Past dreams that never are done
In their many shading's lays
Happy encounters
In every step and way
Happy encounters
In gladness you give away
Moments to remember always
Happy encounters
To share and to take
Happy encounters
To enjoy and to awake
With gladness for every day
Moments to remember always
*(Poem to my song, Happy Encounters)

The Sound Of Laughter
The sound of laughter is a thing of beauty for laughter spreads the very gift of joy
That people they are drawn to happy people is not that hard for to understand why
Since everybody wishes to be happy and laughter it spreads happiness around
And only the heartless could not like the sound of laughter for laughter is a very happy sound,
Than laughter there is no more happy feeling laugh and the World laughs with you seems so true
But if you feel sad and for yourself feeling sorry the saddest person in the World is you
Even your friends would rather not be with you if they see you as one who worship gloom
The happy people attract people to them and in their presence happiness does bloom,
The sound of laughter sends out laughter ripples it is a sound one always loves to hear
And laughter it gives rise to smiling faces and never fails to fill the cup of cheer
The sad one who feels comfort in self pity is the one others do not wish to know
But if you are one who laughs away your worries your friends in numbers seem to grow and grow
And who could not but love the sound of laughter to it there always is a joyful ring
It seems to send happiness out in ripples it is a joyful and infectious thing.

Songs of Eurovision
Last night I watched the Eurovision
And I would have given my distinction
To Moldova or Ukraine with intention
The UK, I may have failed to mention
Songs of inspiration
To me is Eurovision
Songs of imperfection
To me is Eurovision
Belgium played the guitar with such exciting tension
France wiggled their backsides and got amazing reactions
Songs that reach out and touch the nations
To me is Eurovision
Songs that are unique and command attention
To me is Eurovision
Greece and its five guys displayed masculine domination
This was one moment to share for an unforgettable duration
Songs that have vision
To me is Eurovision
Songs that impose on me to make a difficult decision
To me is Eurovision
Songs of fun and action
To me is Eurovision
Songs with dancers of fashion
To me is Eurovision
The butterflies that did not fly were part of Euros portion
And the German winner was really a nice likeable person
Songs of love and union
To me is Eurovision
Songs song by only beautiful women
To me is Eurovision
