Let's Be Serious

Let's be serious for a moment
This time of concentration is potent
If you waver and begin to giggle
All intent will surely fizzle

What disaster will descend upon us all
Surely the sky above shall fall
With grinning and laughter jiggling
Troubled thoughts could go swimming

Set free from the grind… less grumpy
The road ahead could be less bumpy
For just a moment… take a smile break
See what a relieving difference it makes

Moment To Moment

Too many nights of isolation
Too many echoes in my head
Too many fires left burning
In this bed
Too many thoughts of desperation
So much pain deep down below
So mych a slave to my senses
I cant let go
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
I ask you how can a man keep his distance
How can he reason with his heart
How can you hold me so near
Yet keep me so far
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
Sometimes Id like to break you down
To see if theres a trace of woman in you that could be found
But I just keep prayin youll come around
And live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
I live from moment to moment
So much a slave to my senses
I cant let go
From moment to moment
I live and I die
This cant go on anymore
Another day, another lie
From moment to moment
I stand and I fall
This cant go on anymore
Unless we both give it all
You know I want to give it all
I live from moment to moment
Everyday of my life
I live from moment to moment

Do It Again

(graham russell)
I used to watch you walk away
Till the road you take would bend
I was the man to turn you on
And you knew it after all
Come tomorrow when Im all weary
You would turn me down again
At least thats the way I can remember
(chorus)
Do it again, do it again, do it again
Do it again, do it again, do it again
Every single word you told me got home
Im still thinking about them
Every little secret we should have known
And we cant live without them
You surely started something
You surely gave me something new
(chorus)
And I do think about you each now and then
And each time it gets tighter
From the road I can see the last break
And my heads getting lighter
You surely started something
You surely gave me something...you
(chorus)
You surely started something
You surely gave me something ...you
(chorus)

Dreams Untold

The road ahead may not be clear
The path you're walking may not spare
Even a step of happiness for you
But even then don't ever feel blue

And know that sooner or later my dear
Your sight will see things that're rare
That will surely include happiness
Covered with God's huge love and bliss

And know that surely there'll be beam
That'll take you closer to realizing your dream
And then finally that time will come
In which gladly you will sum

All your happiness, joys and fain
And then you won't be shown any pain
And the road ahead you will be clear
And happiness will surely take your care.

Smile At Me :)

Smile at me
that smile, that finds me in the crowd
The one that lights up the room
And makes the world not seem so loud

Smile at me
that smile, that dances upon your laughter
The one that settles into the charming grin
I always remember after

Smile at me
That smile, that always makes me smile
The one that’s completely contagious
And lasts a whole long while

Smile at me
That smile, when my world feels grey
That smile, that smile
The one that chases sorrows away

Even for a moment…
Won’t you smile at me that smile?
If only for a moment
Smile at me…

Psalm 55

O if I had wings like a dove
I would surely fly away
If I could feel the rain from above
I would live another day

Yet I wander in this rainless place
And death is never far away
If I could only see His face
I would surely live another day

The wind and the storms are all around
And I cry out to God and pray
If I could break free and was not bound
I would surely live another day

I will cast my burden on the Lord
And He shall sustain me
I will lay down and rest in His word
And in His presence I surely shall be

Daddy Still Runs Your Show

Daddy surely did love you
In his own fashion that is
And surely he told you sometime?
Though in a manner quite strictly his

Daddy demanded perfection
And all that such entailed
And surely he meted out correction
With rectifications clearly detailed

Daddy was very successful
A man standing above other men
And surely his life was quite stressful
As he reminded you time and again

Daddy was hard to please
And why should you have found him other?
And surely you understood
Observing the secreted tears of your mother

Daddy set high the standard
And outlined the goals for your measure
And surely that inspired your need
To place accomplishment ahead of pleasure

Daddy still runs your show
Though he lives now but in your head
And surely your present behavior reflects
The cold way he toodled you off to your bed

You're Not Alone

In a way, it's all a matter of time
I will not worry for you, You'll be just fine
Take my thoughts with you, and when you look behind
You will surely see a face that you recognize
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind, Surely there's time to be with me
It is the distance, that makes life a little hard
Two minds that once were close, Now so many miles apart
I will not falter though, I'll hold on till you're home
Safely back where you belong, And see how our love has grown
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind, Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone, I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind, Surely there's time to be with me

Only If You Knew

Yes, it has only been a short time that we met….
And to me this will always be a special moment….
This will last in my mind for a very long while….
Of what you did to me when I saw your beautiful smile….

Or the first time that I look in your stunning eyes….
It surely made me realize….
Exactly what I saw in you….
Was true…..

This the main reason of why I grabbed your hand….
And hopefully this is something that you will really understand….
That when we sit and talk and are sharing….
It really makes me happy to see someone is really caring....

My Gosh, Only If You Knew the rate of my heart beat when you're near.….
Then you would finally always understand why in my thoughts you always seem to appear….
This why you are the only one I think about…..
Because you are a true friend no doubt….

Ode to Shoppers Everywhere

Shopping's a pleasure
Says the local ad
To ensure
That in parting with your cash – you'll be glad.

So it was the other day
When I was picking my way
Amongst the bags and cans
And jars of assorted brands
That I looked up to see
Coming straight for me
A lady (that's what we call them)
Riding a motorized shopping pram.

So intent was she
That I hardly had time to flee
Escape was what I intended
Otherwise my life would have surely ended
For not only was she intent on shopping pleasures
But had in tow a full size cart to hold her treasures.

With items heaped high.
There was surely no sense of others nearby
Intent and passionately she came on
Taking only a moment to select and then was gone.

Gone was she to regions of the store,
I know not where, or wanted any more
Of the terrors that perhaps lurk
Around every twist and turn

So I hastened to the check out
Forgetting what other items I was without
Glad to seek the safety of the street
Where with cars and trucks I'll gladly compete.

Bumpy Road

A bumpy road lies ahead,
Feeling cool, ever so cool ahead.
Let chilly times be gone,
A broken path is afoot.

For the vehicle shall be strong,
And the freezing is damaging,
In a dirty road or river,
In the prickly rain of nutrition.

I see this road as a fluffy bridge,
To find the damp undergrowth
Where I see a sweet little dirt,
Where I recline for all day to come.

The vacation is sticky weather,
Short but modern, in a rapid way;
Melted ice sees us trapped,
And we are slow on this bumpy road.

This Is The Moment

This is the moment
This is the day
This is the moment
When I know
I am on my way
Every endeavor
I have made ever
Is coming into play
Is here and now today
This is the moment
This the time
When the momentum
And the moment
are in rhyme
Give me this moment
My precious chance
I'll gather up my best
And make some sense atlast
This is the moment
When all I've done
All of the dreaming,
scheming
And screaming
becomes one
This is the day,
Just see it shine
When all that I have lived for
Becomes mine
This is the moment
This is the hour
When I can open up,
Tomorrow
like a flower
And put my hand to
Everything I plan to
Fulfill my grand desire
See all my stars align
This is the moment
My final test
Destiny beckoned
I never reckoned second best
I won't look back
I must not fall
This is the moment
The sweetest moment
Of them all
This is the moment
So double the odds
This day or never
I'll sit forever
with the gods
When I look back
I will recall
Moment for moment
This was the moment
The greatest moment of them all.

One Mirror Too Many

From the moment you see
The moment you breath
The moment I touch you
From the moment you crawl
The moment you fall
The instant I loved you again
From the moment of darkness
The moment of light
The second I kissed you
From the moment I enter
The moment I leave
In this moment of rapture
Chorus
One mirror to many gonna tie you up
A life forever empty has got to be tough
To many starless night gonna leave you blind
Can never make it right
From the moment you stumble
The moment you run
In your presence I crumble
From the moment it happens
The moment you know
Theres no life without you

All I Ask

All I ask
Is to live each moment
Free from the last
Take the road forgotten
Dont leave me here
Oh, please let me stray
Far from familiar things
All I ask
Is to live each moment
All I ask
Is to live each moment
Free from the last
Strange roads
Going nowhere
Going nowhere in particular
All I ask
Is to live each moment
All I ask
Is to live each moment
Free from the last
Free from the last
All I ask

Obama...

The U S of A is voting for a new President
It seems we all know it's an easy choice,

For the one they've got is heavens sent
An'future's truth comes thru his voice,

In troubled times it's not an easy road
So this time again vote him in,

For he will surely lighten your load and
Better times for all will really begin.

There is surely nothing other than the single purpose of the present moment. A man's whole life is a succession of moment after moment. There will be nothing else to do, and nothing else to pursue. Live being true to the single purpose of the moment.

Concrete Girl

Bleeding thoughts.
Cracking boulder.
Don't fall over.
Fake your laughter.
Burn the tear.
Sing it louder.
Twist and shout.
Way up here,
We stand on shoulders,
Growing colder.
Laugh or cry.
I won't mind.
Sing it louder.
Twist and shout.
Immovable shadows.
The concrete girl.
They'll rock your world to nothing.
And they're swimming around again, again.
And they're swimming around
The concrete girl.
Catch your breath like a four-leaf clover.
Hand it over.
Scream to no one.
Take your time.
Sing it louder.
Twist and shout.
Nothing to run from is worse than something,
And all your fears of nothing.
And they're swimming around again, again.
And they're swimming around
The concrete girl.
Concrete girl, don't fall down
In this broken world around you.
Concrete girl, don't fall down.
Don't fall down, my concrete girl.
Don't stop thinking.
Don't stop feeling now.
One step away from where we were,
And one step back to nothing.
And we're standing on top of our hopes and fears,
And we're fighting for words now, concrete girl.
And we're swimming around again, again.
And we're swimming around now,
Concrete girl.
Concrete girl, don't fall down in this broken world around you.
Concrete girl, don't fall down.
Don't fall down, my concrete girl.
Concrete girl, don't fall down in this concrete world around you.
Concrete girl, don't fall down.
Don't break down, my concrete girl.

If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful

Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown
I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains
I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free

Why Men Fall In Love

Why? They fall into the lovers feminine boudoir trap
‘Cos their lovely with their soft silky smile,
Some wiggle when they walk man raises his cap
Some giggle when they talk just to release a net of beguile,

Perfume and powder wafts into their nose
Makes em' dizzy an' they run off to the shop,
To buy a beautiful flowering rose
This love bug will never stop.

Sky high heels and very short skirts
Sets the pace to reel em' in,
It catches hundreds of love struck flirts
That's when falling in love doth begin

No way a good man will live in sin
So they buy a huge diamond ring an'
There in love ding a ling ding.
Let the wedding bells begin!

Woman that's why man falls in love
The cause is surely a sign from above,
So now I'm off to a woman to meet
Then firstly remove my tongue from it's cheek!
