Details
Before the mind goes...
And any 'suspected' patience,
That is left I 'may' have had...
But did not take an opportunity to express.
I'd like to,
With current humility I recognize within me now,
Say this...
To anyone I might have unwittingly offended.
I'd like to say you can...
Can?
You...
Gee!
It was right on the tip of my tongue too!
How embarrassing?
You can...
'Sounds like...?
Comeon.
Out with it.
I aint got all day to listen to these mushy apologies.
Contrived or not!
Express it. Get it out! '
See?
You see?
That's exactly why folks like you,
Deserve to be told what to kiss!
But I aint feelin' it.
It's a good thing my mind has memory lapses.
Or I'd cuss you out with abundant love.
Which reminds me...
Didn't you promise to pay back my ten dollars?
About a month ago?
Were you hoping I'd forget that?
In fact...
Just last week,
Didn't you borrow fifty more dollars from me?
'Details!
Now you want to include 'details' in the mix! '

Heartbreak Express
Packin my suitcase writin a tear stained good-bye note
Sayin so long to a love gone wrong and thats all she wrote
Leavin behind what once was mine with sad regrets
But its all gone now and Im leavin town on the heartbreak express
Walkin in the rain with a heart full of pain to the train depot
The only things thats gonna keep me warm now is my overcoat
Lost and lonely waitin in line at the ticket desk
Hey mister wont you give me a one-way ticket on the heartbreak express
Im gonna roll on down the line
Im gonna go so far Im gonna get it off my mind
It hurts to know it aint enough when you give your best
Got a ticket to ride and Im leavin tonight on the heartbreak express
Oh I couldnt hold a candle to a flaming beauty that caught his eye
Its killin me now but I wont stay around and let him watch me die
Oh it just goes to show you never do know cause I never woulda guessed
Id be sittin here now on a train sorrow bound called the heartbreak express
Im gonna roll on down the line
Im gonna go so far Im gonna get it off mt mind
Maybe someday somewhere someway I will forget
But theres no goin back so roll down the track you ole heartbreak express
Feelin alone while a low whistle moans
On the heartbreak express

Fortunate Son
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, theyre red, white and blue
And when the band plays hail to the chief
They point the cannon right at you
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no senators son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord they dont help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no millionaires son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them how much should we give ?
They only answer more! more! more!
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no militarys son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate one, no no
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son

Me! ! Alone..
I was alone from the begining, but my mind didn't know that
i was alone from the begining, but my feelings didn't express that
i was alone from the begining, but my song didn't sounds that
i was alone from the begining, but my body didn't hurt that
but now my songs and feelings...
but now my mind and body...
shivers..trumbles...raors...
'I am alone...alone in this world'
thoughts and thoughts on that fact
paved me to...you are grown
your body and mind is grown
your words and songs sounds growth!
Growth? if this growth made me..sad!
i want regrowth! just not to remeber
Thet i am alone...alone in this world
lots songs with me...but not alone....

High And Dry
Last night, I think, I put that home fire out,
Came in late to a cold dark house.
I guess she thinks she got me good this time.
She took all of hers, and most of mine.
She left me high, but I aint dry,
Well, I've got beer and tears to cry.
Well I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
That woman left me high, but I aint dry.
Say bar tender fill 'er up again.
Let's us keep me in the shape I'm in.
And if I can't get her memory to drown,
Well, I'll take it for a swim all over town.
She left me high, but I aint dry,
Well, I've got beer and tears to cry.
Well I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
That woman left me high, but I aint dry.
Hell, I should be feelin' low,
Up that creek that we all know.
Yeah, that woman left me high, but I aint dry.

Thats What They Always Say
At the first bell of the day
They rise up from where they lay
And look down with the promise in their hands
A promise to get out
This aint what its all about
Theres always lots of reasons for their plans
When that golden sun shines through
Theres always one more thing to do
Just one more stab into the wishing well
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Im getting out, Im holding on
Im hanging in, the time is wrong
And every morning brings another reason
A piece of cake, no lion share
Just one more dice and youll be there
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Tomorrow is another day
The money junkie fades away
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say

Words Cannot Express
October 6,2012
Sometimes words cannot express enough. So let me show you, from my mind, to your body and mind.
I'll repay back to you so sincerely, and I will let you love me. Even if only physically...But, I, will love you with all of me, my soul and mind, my lips and eyes.
My hands and arms. My fingers and tongue.
you have my devoted attention. Let me love your body, and free you mind.
I'm yours for the night, until the morning, until I finish my cup of coffee, and put my coat on and walk out the door, and we look back at each other, and know, you will never let me express this love again.
Let me show you... as sometimes my words cannot express...

My Disappearing Act
If I have offended you,
That can only mean one thing!
You chose to enforce an impression on me.
With a familiar disrespect,
That is a part of your life without self reflection.
And if I offended you,
I've seen what you do too much.
And folks like you out of touch,
With an absorption of self?
I don't like.
Although I may not say that.
My disappearing act should express it!
You will not test my peace of mind.
Doing it I do not suggest,
One bit.
And if you find that offensive,
I do not give a...
'To those who know what I am saying?
You know what I am saying!
There is no point in explaining.
Some folks can agitate the evil out of others.'

Unsuspecting Prey
You borrowed from me ten dollars.
With a promise to pay me...
Last week.
Today you are angry,
Because that ten dollars is what I need.
And you say 'my' attitude is unreasonable.
And you will think twice,
Before approaching me again for a favor?
Or...
Any unsolicited suggestions or advice?
And is that another promise?
Or is that something I wont have to beg,
You to keep.
Hopefully that will stay locked in your mind.
Keeping you from finding time to leech,
And smooch.
But there is always for you,
New and unsuspecting prey to smooze and mooch!

You've Done That Already To Yourself
You told others I attacked you,
With abusive language.
You also suggested...
My tone of voice was not what you liked.
And I've taken everything I've heard,
Into consideration.
And I have come to apologize.
With the understanding I am so wrong.
'So
You're not angry with me for not paying you back,
The two hundred dollars I said I would pay you...
More than three months ago? '
No!
Not at all.
In fact
I want you to forget about that.
And every favor I have ever done for you.
At the expense of my own sacrificing done.
'WHY?
What are you going to do to me? '
Why would I want to do anything to you?
You've done that already to yourself.
I've just come to extend and express,
My condolences.
That's all.

You
You are an unexpected surprise.
Pleasant
Like cotton candy melting on the tongue.
I didn't know I could feel this way again,
Didn't expect to be swept off my feet.
I trust you
Like I did my first love.
For some reason when you complement me,
I believe it.
I don't dismiss it as I have with so
Many others.
I like the fact that you still read the news paper in the mornings
And
Don't log onto the internet for all the news.
I like the fact that you were YOU
When we met,
Grounded, down to earth, comfortable in your skin.
There was a catch in my throat when our eyes met.
But, when I felt the pull,
For the first time, in a very long time
I didn't push
You
Away
As I have so many others.
I was comfortable with you.
It felt like,
Putting on my favorite pair of jeans
Drinking hot chocolate
Rain on my face
Joy
Natural.
I let you in
Told you who I really was, nothing held back..
And,
You accepted me for me.
The fact that I like to dress up and go out on Friday night,
But,
Sundays, I'm a homebody.
The fact that I like to listen to music and dance when we cook,
But,
Need quiet to sleep, so you mute the T.V.
The fact that when I'm upset, I need my space
But, I'm still afraid of the dark..
And,
When we talk about having kids,
You say you want three
And
When you said the last one would be a daughter,
I laughed, when you said you wanted her to be like me.
I love you for your heart.
I love you for your mind.
I love you so deeply
Because you let me and accepted me for me.
Thank god you don't have and over zealous religious nature.
You're the first person who has not
Tried to understand or change my tumultuous
Relationship with god.
I respect you so much for letting it be.
You notice the details, like when I'm tired.
Help me, in just the ways I need.
I thought men like you were a myth.
So glad to know I was wrong and you do exist!
My love knows no bounds for you
For the longest time, I wouldn't let myself believe
That happy endings weren't just for fairy- tales
And I would have a life of such bliss and peace.

Feelin
When you give whats in your heart, to the one you love
You want them to give their love back to you
When every kiss and every smile mean the world to you
Then youve got it bad
Dont need a cure for what youre going through
This feelin inside you cant let it hide
Feelin, never stop that feelin
When your love is true
Feelin, never stop that feelin
There aint nothin you can do now
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
You feel it through and through, honey
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
cause there aint nothin you can do now, boy
When every look and every touch makes you come undone
And you cant believe this feelin is real
When the sound of someones name gives you butterflies
Dont wonder why cause you can be sure
That youre in love
This feelin inside you cant let it hide
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
When your love is true
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
There aint nothing you can do now
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
You feel it through and through, honey
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
cause there aint nothin you can do now, boy
Oo hoo hoo boy oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo boy oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo boy oo hoo hoo
Oo hoo hoo boy oo hoo hoo
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
When your love is true

Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin
You feel it through and through, honey
Feelin, never gonna stop that feelin

Ahh, do, da, do, da, do, da, do, da, day
Maybe he was wrong, maybe I wasnt right
Whatever the reason Im on my own tonight
Hes gone his way and Ive gone mine
Well I bet you heat that story all the time
Well, sometimes your friends aint always available
To pick you up when youre feelin down, down, down, oh
My daddy would die if he knew his baby
Was seekin refuge in a little ol bar across town
So tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do
Is feel a little better
Tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do
Is feel a little better
Hey, bartender, honey gimme change for a ten-dollar bill
Bring it back as a stack of quarters, if you will
cause Im gonna play every song on your jukebox that makes me cry
Gonna find out how many tears ten dollars can buy, oh
Gonna find out how many tears ten dollars can buy
Tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do
Is feel a little better
Tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do
Is feel a little better
Tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do
Is feel a little better
Tell me where is a woman to go?
When shes feelin low and all she wants to do

I'll promise to go easier on drinking and to get to bed earlier, but not for you, fifty thousand dollars, or two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars will I give up women. They're too much fun.
So Long
So long, so long
Now Im on my way
So long, so long
See you all some day
Dont know where Im heading for
Turn my back and walk away
Dont think about whats left behind
Otherwise
Think about the good times
Think about the people you love
Think about the sun that is gone
And there aint no use me talking bout the things we used to do
So long, so long
Im better by myself
So long, so long
Dont need nobody else
If I fade from peoples hearts
Im glad I left them far behind
Theres one thing that holds me still
Im thinkin
The memory of your kiss
The memory of your sweet caress
The memory of you love that is gone
And there aint no use me talking bout the things we used to do
So long, so long
Got no time for tears
So long, so long
Got music in my ears
Got no time for muswell town
Gonna look around now
My old town was good to me
But oh...
Guess Ill say so long now
Dont even say a word
Ill turn my back and walk away, but oh...
The day that Ive seen everything I promise to return
So long, so long
Now Im on my way
So long, so long
See you all some day
So long, so long
Now Im on my way
