Another Second Time Around

Happy smiling crying all put to my past
I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't last
And now I find myself tugging at your dress
The thought of holding you down or seeing you frown is never gonna pass

Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go
Gray like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know
All on postcards full of things I won't forget
And now it's coming down that laughing clown is all I ever get

Another second time around I've been running from ya
Another second time around
Another second

Stormy

Stormy you are the sunshine, baby, whenever you smile
But I call you stormy today
All of a sudden that ol rain is fallin down
And my world is cloudy and gray
Youve gone away
Old stormy stormy
Old stormy stormy
Old stormy stormy
Old stormy stormy
Yesterdays love was alive, the warm summer breeze
But like the weather you changed
Now things are dreary, baby, windy and cold
And I stand alone in the rain
Callin out your name
Stormy stormy
Stormy stormy
Come back to me stormy
Stormy stormy
Bring back that sunny day
Guitar solo
Yesterdays love was alive, the warm summer breeze
But like the weather you changed
Now things are dreary, baby, windy and cold
And I stand alone in the rain
Callin out your name
Whoa! stormy
Stormy, come back to me stormy
Stormy, come back to me stormy
Come on home! stormy
Bring back that sunny day

Blue Skies

I was blue, just as blue as I could be
Evry day was a cloudy day for me
Then good luck came a-knocking at my door
Skies were gray but theyre not gray anymore
Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see
Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When youre in love, my how they fly
Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on
[2]
I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it cant be true
I should smile, thats exactly what I do

Crying In The Rain

Ill never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
Ive got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
Ill do my crying in the rain
If I wait for stormy skies
You wont know the rain from the tears in my eyes
Youll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
Ill do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since were not together
I pray for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope youll never see
Someday when my cryings done
Im gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, youll never see me complain
Ill do my crying in the rain
Ill do my crying in the rain
Ill do my crying in the rain
Ill do my crying in the rain

Discouraged From Mentioning Them

'Gray skies are gonna clear up.
Put on a happy face.
Wipe off the gloom and cheer'

Would you SHUT UP with that.
We are undergoing a crisis.

'My.
My, my, my.
Now
This would 'not' be the same crisis,
'We' were undergoing
When some were then,
Discouraged from mentioning them?
Back at a time when a stirring of them began?

And
Would this be the same crisis,
When mentioned
There was a reluctance,
To put them to an end? '

Why are you so negative?
As if to provoke a justification,
To dwell in acts of cynicism.

'You know
You are right.
You do have a point.
I will leave you with your positive outlook.
Since it saddens me to be so happy,
Knowing I can confront truth.
With a looking on the brighter side of life.
And be delusion free.
What was I thinking? '

Note:
'Gray skies are gonna clear up'
are lyrics from the musical Bye, Bye Birdie.
Put On A Happy Face is the title of that song.

Dark Is The Night

I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my stormy in the rain
If I wait for cloudy skies
You won't know the rain
from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you
So though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain
Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling,
you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
(solo)
But since we're not together
I'll brave the stormy weather
To hide these tears I hope you'll never see
Someday when my crying's done
I'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling,
you'll never see me complain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain

Stormy Sky

Oh, oh darlin,
Little darlin,
Did you ever see such a stormy sky?
Its never been like this before.
All the people,
Theyre runnin.
Evrybodys tryn to hide,
To get away from that stormy sky.
Perhaps its a sign
Of what were headed for.
Were under a stormy sky,
Watchin the clouds roll by.
But wont you let me keep you warm,
And leave the storm outside?
Its only a stormy sky.
I feel it.
Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Feels like were in for a stormy night,
But I cant see a cloud in sight.
I see it.
Do you see it?
Cant you see it,
See that warning in that stormy sky.
But perhaps its gonna pass us by,
So dont you cry.
Theres nowhere we can hide.
But if you hold me tight,
I know that well be all right.
Tomorrow well laugh about it;
Greet the mornin light.
Its only a stormy sky.
Were under a stormy sky,
Watchin the clouds roll by.
But therell be another dawn
To clear the storm away,
And we will be all right.

Stormy Waters

(white)
Stormy waters, I cant find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I cant try any harder
And all I ask is to know
Im near the bay
I did it again, I let another year roll away
So I pretend that Ive got a reason to say
Im closer to having you
I never should have strayed
I wish it could
Be easier
For me to end someday
Stormy waters, I cant find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I cant try any harder
And all I ask is to know
Im near the bay
Whatever I did tell me would I do
The same again
If I could relive would it be the same in the end
cause everyday
Has a funny way
Of ending up so blue
I wish it could
Be easier
To get back with you
Stormy waters, I cant find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I cant try any harder
And all I ask is to know
Im near the bay
Stormy waters, I cant find the harbour
Stormy water keeps me away
Stormy waters, I cant try any harder
And all I ask is to know
Im near the bay

Umbrella Song

On the poor side of town, lives a girl no one knows
With her worn out shoes and her ragged clothes
Her mother tries to provide since her father has died
But no one even cares if shes alive
And when the rain comes down
Shes never getting wet
And though the skies are gray
Shell still be smiling yet
Cause in her eyes theres no teardrops
In her heart theres no pain
Shes got her love as an umbrella from the rain
Oh, what love is an umbrella from the rain
On the rich side of town, lives a boy no one knows
With his shiny shoes and his fancy clothes
Hes got everything he needs if he wants to succeed
But no one even cares if hes alive
And when the rain comes down
Hes never getting wet
And though the skies are gray
Hell still be smiling yet
Cause in his eyes theres no teardrops
In his heart theres no pain
Hes got his love as an umbrella from the rain
Oh, his love is an umbrella from the rain
Isnt life feeling strange and money cant buy
All you need to get by
All around the world, there are folks no one knows
If theyre worn out shoes, their fancy clothes
Will they find more there to give for and open the door
To know that someone cares if theyre alive
And when the rain comes down
Were never getting wet
And though the skies are gray
Well still be smiling yet
Cause in our eyes theres no teardrops
In our hearts theres no pain
Weve got a love as an umbrella from the rain
Oh, our love is an umbrella from the rain
And when the rain comes down
Were never getting wet
And though the skies are gray
Well still be smiling yet
(repeat 4x to fade)

The Meadow Lark

THOUGH the winds be dank,
And the sky be sober,
And the grieving Day
In a mantle gray
Hath let her waiting maiden robe her, —
All the fields along
I can hear the song
Of the meadow lark,
As she flits and flutters,
And laughs at the thunder when it mutters.
O happy bird, of heart most gay
To sing when skies are gray!
When the clouds are full,
And the tempest master
Lets the loud winds sweep
From his bosom deep
Like heralds of some dire disaster,
Then the heart alone
To itself makes moan;
And the songs come slow,
While the tears fall fleeter,
And silence than song by far seems sweeter.
Oh, few are they along the way
Who sing when skies are gray!

Singing Skies And Dancing Waters

So many years ago, I can't remember now, someone was waiting for me.
I had the answers to all of my questions, love was so easy to see. I didn't know.
When I was younger, I should have known better, I thought that nothing was new.
Through all the spaces, in all of the changes, the one I lost sight of was you.
I didn't know, I didn't know.
I could see you in singing skies and dancing waters, laughing children, growing old,
and in the heart and in the spirit, and in the truth when it is told.
My life became shaded and I grew afraid and I needed to find my way home.
I just couldn't see you, I thought that I'd lost you.
I never felt so much alone. Are you still with me?
Somehow in reason, I lost sight of season, tides rolling out and rolling in.
Sometimes in evening when daylight was leaving, I though I'd never see you again.
Are you still with me? Are you still with me?
I'm with you in singing skies and dancing waters, laughing children, growing old,
and in the heart and in the spirit, and in the truth when it is told.
If my faith should falter and I should forsake you and find myself turning away,
will you still be there? Will you still be there?
I'll be there in singing skies and dancing waters laughing children, growing old,
and in the heart and in the spirit, and in the truth when it is told.

Not Gonna Be Alone Tonight

Saw her standing in the street in a hat made out of skin
Underneath a stormy sky like a heroine
Over me came the feeling that I'd never win
She's owning me like a dog to a God
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm not gonna be alone tonight
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm gonna get you gonna win (x2)
I'm more than glad to take one on the chin, baby
As long as I've got your attention
Save me stop sneaking pain to the cranium
Blame me, let me out from underneath your thumb
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm not gonna be alone tonight
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm gonna get you gonna win (x2)
My senses are six and they need their fix from you
Underneath a stormy sky I'm holding you
Over me comes the feeling you could come around
Baby give me a chance and you hand and remove that crown
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm not gonna be alone tonight
I'm not gonna let you go this time
Not gonna be alone tonight,
You can try to break me down
Or start a fight
I'm gonna get you gonna win (x4)
Get the feeling you could come around

I Dream of a New Land

my soul chained with fears
caged in a dark place
cries with sorrowful tears
down my pale, hollow face

the notes of my song die
before even being born
my broken wings cannot fly
deep in my heart, I can feel
this sharp, constant thorn

I dream of a new land
the land of the blue skies
-the land of the free-
across this desert,
across this dry sand
across this stormy sea

will I dare to act on my dreams?
will I dare to rise and break my chains?
will I dare to free all the inside screams?
will I dare to reveal all my pains?

my soul without any fears
flies free in a colorful place
cries with new happy tears
down my bright, beautiful face

a new song is born in an instant
I carry it on my new silver wings
there’s no time and no distance
I’m born in the eternal existence
my heart forever sings

I dream of a new land
the land of the blue skies
-the land of the free-
across this desert,
across this dry sand
across this stormy sea

This Time Around

Every single hour in my hands
Every second word that goes to send
Another day is tied behind my back
Another beating heart is all I have
But not this time around
Not this time around
If you came around
I'd leave the skies today
Not this time around
I never thought I'd live to see this day
I always knew the sun would go away
I never had the strength to turn away, oh
In the end is always how I feel
Not this time around
Not this time around
If you came around
I'd leave the skies today
Not this time around
How will I
Will you find me?
How will I
Been away
Oh will I
Will you find me?
How will I ever know?
I don't believe in beautiful mistakes
Every turn of fate is on to take
Another turn or second chance goes by
Every wrong turn comes an eye to eye
Not this time around
Not this time around
And if you came around
I'd leave the skies today
Not this time around
But not this time around
Well I'd leave the skies today
Not this time around
Not this time around
I'd leave the skies today

Ben Hur

Everything I know tells me she's everything that I could hope for.
Everything I know tells me I can't let her walk away.
I took my time to find the words.
I hoped she'd feel the same.
'Cause I want someone to share my smile.
To share the pain.
To be there when the sea turns gray.
To share the joy for better or worse,
And I thought that it might have been her.
Wonder if she knows the way I saw her soul light up my life.
Wonder if she knows of the pain I feel tonight.
I took my time to find the words,
I hoped she'd feel the same.
'Cause I want someone to share my smile,
To share the pain.
To be there when the sea turns gray.
To share the joy for better or worse.
And I thought that it might have been her.

25 Minutes

After some time I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done

I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this

Chorus:
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late

Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing be back to the time when we were more than
friends

Still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's cried while she's saying this

Chorus

Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said

I can still hear what she said

Crybaby

If I could say I still loved you, I would do it.
For you.
And if I could say that Id be true, I would do it.
You know I would do it.
But I cant ignore
The lives Ive lived before.
And you will find
That you cant change my mind.
So cry, baby, cry, I dont care anymore.
Cry, baby, cry, cuz Im out the door.
If I could stop the hands of time, I would do it.
On a dime.
And if I could say that youre still mine, I would do it.
You know I would do it.
But life goes on,
And I am already gone.
What can you say?
Im still running away.
So cry, baby, cry, I dont care anymore.
Cry, baby, cry, cause Im out the door.
Cry, baby, cry, turn your gray skies blue.
Cry, baby, cry, cause Im over you.
So cry, baby, cry, I dont care anymore.
Cry, baby, cry, cause Im out the door.
Cry, baby, cry, turn your gray skies blue.
Cry, baby, cry, cause I cried for you.
For you.

Cant Wait

I cant wait
Wait for you to change my mind
Its late
Im tryin to walk the line
Well its way past midnight
And theres some people all around
Some on their way up
Some on their way down
The air burns and Im tryin to think straight
And I dont know how much longer I can wait
Im your man
Ive tried to recover the sweet love that we knew
You understand
That my heart cant go on beating without you
Well your loveliness has wounded me
Im reeling from the blow
I wish I knew what it was that keeps me loving you so
Im breathin hard standin at the gate
And I dont know how much longer I can wait
Skies are gray
Im looking for anything that will bring a happy glow
Night or day
It doesnt matter where I go anymore I just go
If I ever saw you comin I dont know what I might do
Id like to think I could control myself
But it isnt true
Thats how it is
When things disintegrate
And I dont know how much longer I can wait
Im doomed to love you
I been rollin through stormy weather
Im thinkin of you
And all the places we could roam together
Its mighty funny
The end of time has just begun
Oh honey, after all these years youre still the one
Well Im strollin through the lonely graveyard of my mind
I left my life with you
Somewhere back there along the line
I thought somehow that I would be spared this day
I dont know how much longer I can wait

neath A Cold Gray Tomb Of Stone

Passing by a lonesome graveyard
Everything I love is gone
Weeping as they lay my darling
Neath a cold gray tomb of stone
In this world i'm left to wander
With no one to call my own
While my precious darling's sleeping
Neath a cold gray tomb of stone
Out there in that lonesome graveyard
She is sleeping all alone
And I burried my heart with her
Neath a cold gray tomb of stone
Skies above are dark and stormy
All the sunshine,all is gone
For the while my love is sleeping
Neath a cold gray tomb of stone
My heart is dead and yet i'm living
Traveling through this world alone
I wish that I was with my darling
Neath a cold gray tomb of stone

I Want To Be Happy

I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
Till I make you happy, too
Life's really worth living
When we are mirth-giving
Why can't I give some to you?
When skies are gray
And you say you are blue
I'll send the sun smiling through
I want to be happy
But I won't be happy
Till I make you happy, too
