My Special Friend, The Icecream Man
My friend and I have a special sort of relationship.
Everyday between 1pm and 7 he comes to play with me.
No, not in that way.
You sick freaks.
When I hear his loud child friendly song,
And when I see that big truck,
The one decorted in polk-a-dots,
I get all happy in my pants, and do a little dance.
Everyday I ask my special friend very politely,
'Mr. Icecream man, Sir., may I please have some candy cigarettes and an icecream cone? '
He says to me 'you sure can, sugar! '
I hand him the money and he hands me my treats.
Then we start with are thank you's and goodbyes.
It's quite a bittersweet moment.
Bitter because he has to go,
But sweet because I get to eat my treats.
24 hours later
The ritual repeats and repeats and repeats
Until that faithful day when it gets to cold and winter starts.
I really will miss that song and his big truck and them candy cigarettes.
Well I shouldn't be sad, I should lift my chin and smile,
Cause I know that he will be back again next summer,
But in the mean time I can't wait for tomorrow,
To see my special friend, the icecream man.

A Candy Kiss
A candy kiss so very sweet,
Like peppermint covered candy sticks.
Like chocolate covered cherry treats,
Swirling around inside your cheeks.
A candy kiss, just pure delight,
That leaves a taste of sugar on your lips.
Or that very special kiss good night,
Like pixie stix in tiny sips.
A candy kiss, like butter scotch,
Pure ecstasy that makes you drool.
Or like a homemade piece of fudge,
That you couldn't leave to cool.
Candy kisses so sweet and fine,
Can't get them at the candy shop.
But you will crave them all the time,
And hope to God they never stop.

Theres Always [[ dedicated to Keiaire Patrick]]
Theres always a friend in some ones life
that's just like the girl right here.
The girl that will scream something stupid in my ear.
Theres always a friend that tells you what to do.
A little bossy, but she always wants the best for you.
Theres always a friend who will come and save the day
when your bummed out, stressed out, and all the other things i can't say.
Theres always a friend that even if you argue with her she will come back, because thats your friend and she loves you thats a [[ fact.]]
Theres always a special friend who you will love and tresure until the end.
A girl named Keiaire is that special person in my life.
The special friend that was always there.
The special friend that will always care.

Icecream
Why is icecream called icecream?
Instead of what it is?
Milk that is creamed,
With added sugar and flavoring...
To taste delicious after it is set to chill,
At a certain temperature.
Wouldn't it be easier to sell and order?

Good & faithful friend
I was feeling sort of down and lonely,
I decided to reach out to an old and faithful friend
I walked into the family room
and put some mellow music on
I was then bacK
in stride once again
My old friend really knows
how to make me happy
What a true and special pal
The horn is really oh so snappy and
The keyboard's melodies simply has a smooth blend
My good friend music
Really lifted my spirit at just the right moment
When I really needed a friend
Now Iam happy, once again
Iam sincerely fortunate to
Have a friendship with music and
may our relationship never end

May I Have This Dance
Words that mean a lot to all gals
of all ages, are touched
honored, rejected or ignored
some cherish them
sometimes a magical start
a few lust or horror stories
these few words can make a night endless
when the slow song starts to play
guys eyes start to glare
a search for that special one
the nervous rattled, the mind battles
where's that special angel
across the room, down the hall
she is there in the waiting
find her and make the stroll
she may have been waiting for your move
there all alone the angel and the smile
the twinkle in her eyes
the racing of your heartbeat
that special song, could be your song
extend your arm and politely ask
May I have this dance with you
it will open a lot of doors
no matter if she accepts or denies
your courage has a merged
as she accepts, with her hand extend
bow to her as she was a princess and you a knight
a nice thank you and the dance begins
and may your dream come alive
may this dance be the first and the one to last
the angel for you to hold and to love
may the song and dance never end
her hand in yours and your arm around her waist
may you waltz to a new dawn
as the magic of romance soars
the beauty of seeing you both smiling
a soft whisper and a gentle kiss
the world is spinning
the fireworks exploding
how we all wish for this dance
once in our lives
May I have this dance, My Lady

Candy Girl
When you were 17 and I was 19
We feel deep in love growin up in queens
We didnt know a thing about love
We was innocent, sneakin on the doorstep to hug
Held you tightly and promised you the world
You gave me hickeys and said you was my girl
When I think about it now it makes me smile
cause I aint felt these butterflies in a while
Funny how you grow up and innocence fades
We used to live for love but now were afraid
{of what? }
Of the darkness and bitter memories
Lovers who crushed us through infidelity
I promised you Ill love you to the end
Always and forever, since way back when, uh
Youre like candy,
The worlds sweetest friend
You taste better now than you did back then
You will always be my candy
[be my]
One day we will start a family
You will always be my candy girl
[you will always be my]
(youll be my candy girl forever)
You will always be my candy
[yes, you will]
I want your love girl understand me
[yes, you will]
You will always be my candy girl
(Im down for whatever)
While you suck caramel apple lollypops
Rain, sleet, or snow Im troopin up the murdock
We used to walk down the block, hold hands
I would get you after school cause I was your man
And, any guys that wanna socialize
Just know that imma flip on any cat that tries
My peeps used to say I was whipped
All your girls said, since you got with him you flipped
But, uh, they couldnt feel the feelings we felt
Mirrors on the ceiling we melt
I would look up at ya
I remember the afternoon you surrendered
We made love,
Your temperature was high as could be
You said, todd, promise you aint lyin to me
And as we went our separate ways you turned back
Smiled, I remember all that
You will always be my candy
[be my]
One day we will start a family
[yes, we will]
You will always be my candy girl
[candy girl, youre my]
(my candy girl forever)
You will always be my candy
[alright]
Want your love girl understand me
[understand me]
You will always be my candy girl
(okay, take it to the bridge)
Candy girl
You are my world
[are my world]
Look so sweet
Youre a special treat
[sweet]
Candy girl
(mmm, mmm, mmm)
All I want to say
I need your love
Each and every day
When Im alone in my room,
Sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind,
I hear my memories call
For days when love was true,
I slept and held you
Taste the brown sugar,
Let your climax melt you
Candy,
Youre occupyin all of my thoughts
Turned my soul upside down with lessons you taught
I could feel you
Even when youre far away youre right here wit me
Sweet love strictly
And imma bend over backwards to keep you on my side
Take you for a mental and emotional ride
Make love to your soul,
Your heart, and your mind
In your hour of need, girl,
Ill be there every time
And as long as you support my dreams
Stayin right beside me as a part of my team
Imma take you where the average man can only dream of
cause in a world so sour I got the sweetest love
You will always be my candy
[youll]
One day we will start a family
You will always be my candy girl
[my candy girl, candy girl]
(youll be my candy girl forever)
You will always be my candy
[youll will always]
Want your love girl understand me
[true love, hey, hey]
You will always be my candy girl
{i love you too}
(Im down for whatever)
Candy girl
You are my world
[candy, candy]
Look so sweet
Youre a special treat
(youll be my candy girl forever)
Candy girl
All I want to say
(word is bond, sweetheart, I swear)
I need your love
(Im down for whatever)
Candy girl
(I love you baby, I love you baby)
(sometimes you gotta go back home)
Look so sweet
(yeah)
{i love you}

She's so fine she can't be beat
Shes got everything that I desire

Goin' to see her when the sun goes down

Candy on the beach, there's nothing better
But I like candy when it's wrapped in leather
Someday soon I'll make her mine
And then I'll have Candy all the time

What is a true friend?
what is a true friend
A true friend is someone special for me
A true friend is someone to be protected with
A true friend is someone to cry and try again with
A true friend can sometimes understand you
better than anyone else can.
A true friend is there for you in good times and bad.
Some true friends are so close
some are far apart.
Some people think a true friend is just a friend
But my true friend is more than that
s/he is and will always be my best friend
and my friend will always be very special
for me.

A Special Friend's Calling Card
A Special Friend's Calling Card
A friend is someone we wanted
To talk with, share with, have fun with
Laugh with, cry with
A friend is always and forever
A shoulder to lean on
A joy for the heart
A friend is somebody
Who goes in when the world goes out
Who gives when there's no more to give
Until it hurts…
What then is a friend to you…..
There’s always a Friend, a special Friend you can have
Always dependable, trustworthy
Powerful and rich
If you have a real need, whatever it is
He can meet that need
If you feel unloved, He will give you LOVE that endures
Tell Him you want to be His Friend
And He will take care of the rest
His name is……JESUS….
THANK YOU JESUS..I HAVE A FRIEND IN YOU

So Long For Now
You look so peaceful lying there
With your hands folded upon your chest.
You look like you are sleeping
But you are at eternal rest.
So Long For Now.
Not a hair out of place,
Your make-up nicely done,
A beautiful smile upon your lips -
For now you are with Absalom.
When someone special passes on
It does not mean they are gone,
Though they are no longer with us
Their memory still lives on.
It hurts so much to lose a friend -
Especially one that is trustworthy and kind.
Nan Legge, you were that special friend,
A rare and special find.
Nan Legge, you will always be with me
In spirit and in mind.
You will always have a special place in my heart
Forever until the end of time.
Nan Legge, I will not say 'Good-bye'.
This is not the end.
So I will just say, 'So long...'
Until we meet again.

Candy Land
It always starts out simple,
maybe something sweet.
Just a little candy, no harm
at all.
Then comes the constent need.
The need for more and more.
After a little it starts to become
an obsession, the need for it so
bad you'll do anything.
And thats when it happens,
you meet him, the man from
Candy Land. He always has
candy and he's always so nice.
You ask him and he says ok,
lets drive off to Candy Land.
You get in with him and buckle up,
just like a good little child.
After that you see him smile and
he gives you a lolipop. You smile
and take it, the last words you say
are thanks mister.
And thats the last thing you ever say,
the next place your seen is six feet
under and the Candy Man got your
candy. Is that what you wanted, is that
how it was supposed to end?
With your mother standing over you and
weeping. I bet it wasn't...

Whenever I Call You Friend
Whenever I call you friend, I begin to think I understand
Anywhere we are, you and I have always been, ever and ever
I see myself within your eyes, and thats all I need to show me why
Everything I do always takes me home to you, ever and ever
n now I know my life has given me more than memories, day by day, we can see
In every moment theres a reason to carry on
Chorus:
Sweet loves showin us a heavenly light, never seen such a beautiful sight
See love glowin on us every night, I know forever well be doin it
Chorus... right
Whenever I call you friend, I believe Ive come to understand
Everywhere we are, you and I were meant to be, forever and ever
I think about the times to come, knowin I will be the lucky one
And ever our love will last, I always want to call you friend

An now I know my life has given me more than memories, day by day

History Never Repeats (feat. Neil & Tim Finn)
History never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
Don't say the words you might regret
I lost before, you know I can't forget
There was a girl I used to know
She dealt my love a savage blow
I was so young, too blind to see
But anyway, that's history
And I say, history never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
And there's a light shining in the dark
Leading me on towards a change of heart
You say I always play the fool
I can't go on if that's the rule
Better to jump than hesitate
I need a change and I can't wait
I say, history never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
And there's a light shining in the dark
Leading me on towards a change of heart
Never repeats, whoa, oh
History never repeats (x2)
Deep in the night it's all so clear
I lie awake with great ideas
Looking about in no man's land
I think at last I understand
History never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
And there's a light shining in the dark
Leading me on towards a change of heart
Ahhh

Sister Friend, Why
Sister, Friend, Why!
Sister, friend, you are so beautiful.
Why do you let him put you down?
Yelling, screaming, hitting, insults, cries of pain.
Sister, friend, you are a child of God.
When are you going to let go and give it to God?
Start walking, run, don't turn back.
Jesus is holding His hand out, smile and say, I am free.
Go, sister, friend, positive energy, laughing, smiling,
Beautiful face, tall and erect stature.
Welcome back, there goes my friend.
Welcome back....

If This Would Mean An End To A Chase
I wish I could issue rose glasses to those in need.
Those hoping to get a taste of that dangling carrot.
Or a slice of apple pie topped with homemade icecream.
If this would mean an end to a chase.
And heartaches embraced would fade away from desiring,
Such teased treats to feed and fantasize.
I wish I could purchase enough peppermint sticks,
To dip in minted tea...
For all of those wishing a life lived in comfort and luxury.
Wouldn't it be nice to see on TV...
Parents laughing and singing with their children happily,
While engaged as a family living life peacefully.
I wish I could issue rose glasses to those in need.
Those hoping to get a taste of that dangling carrot.
Or a slice of apple pie topped with homemade icecream.
If this would mean an end to a chase.
And heartaches embraced would fade away from desiring,
Such teased treats to feed and fantasize.
If this would mean an end to a chase.
To live their lives as they see fit.
Without the constant bombardment,
Of being fed nonsense.
And heartaches embraced would fade away from desiring,
Such teased treats to feed and fantasize.
