Songs Of Freedom
Up the hill, down the stream
Running away like in a dream.
The sky appear bluer and
the life appear longer.
Above the sky, below the ocean
Running away in full motion
The sky appear bluer, and
the life appear longer.
Standing on the Moon
looking at the Sun,
Thinking of you
as I run...
The sky appear bluer, and
The songs of freedom louder.

Bluer Than Blue
After you go
I can catch upon my reading
After you go
I'll have a lot mroe time for sleeping
And when you're gone
It looks like things are going to be a lot easier
Life will be a breeze you know
I really should be glad
But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without is going to be
Bluer than blue
After you go
I'll have a lot more room in my closet
After you go
I'll stay out all night if I feel like it
And when you're gone
I could run through the house screaming
And no one will ever hear me
I really should be glad
But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without is going to be
Bluer than blue
I don't have to miss no t.v. shows
I can start my whole life over
Change the numbers on my telephone
But the nights will sure be colder
And I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without you is going to be
Bluer than blue
Bluer than blue
Bluer than blue

Blue
…Something in her eyes said
…Something in her smile did
And that something is ever new each day
Bluer and bluer as one kisses daybreak
Jaded or not, I'd be kept hidden
Beneath your wings
If so desired, lest I'll burn to ashes
Or be grilled by a thousand scorching eyes
The bluer I get, the higher I climb
To that missing ladder
As I inch my way to the pinnacle of your desire
Spent, satiated in the emissaries of life
The bluer I get

Miracles
Clouds drift away
when they see you
Rain wouldn't dare
to fall near you here
Miracles happen
when you're around
Somehow the grass is much greener
Rivers flow faster and cleaner
Being with you
no matter where
sunlight breaks through
and suddenly there's
A bluer sky
whenever you're around
You always bring
a bluer sky
a brighter day
Thunder is silent before you
Roses bloom more to adore you too
Miracles happen
when you're around
The sunset is deeper and longer
The scent of the jasmine is stronger
Stray dogs don't bite
Birds start to sing
Lightening daren't strike
You suddenly bring
A bluer sky
whenever you're around
You always bring
a bluer sky
a brighter day
Birds fly
even higher in the sky
Sun shines
It's a new day
Being with you
no matter where
sunlight breaks through
and suddenly there's
A bluer sky
whenever you're around
You always bring
a bluer sky
a brighter day
(Miracles happen)
Birds fly
even higher in the sky
(Miracles happen)
Sun shines
It's a new day
(Miracles happen)
Sun shines
It's a new day

Blue Like The Ocean
How vast is the ocean?
I know it is in wide scope
How dangerous this ocean?
A lot and too much chances
To explore, you can be drowned
With the waves you can be nowhere
How deep it could be?
Like the love of yours
How vast, how deep
How blue, how loyal
Deeper, bluer than blue
So I dunk my desolate life into that ocean
Immerse it into utmost contentment
Just to feel that lost pleasing touch
To get the fullness of the bright life
I found it, its deeper in you
Bluer than blue ocean
I enjoy the scenery of bright life

A Little Bluer Than That
Well tonight if you turn your radio on
You might hear a sad, sad song
About someone who lost everything they had
It may sound like me
But I'm a little bluer than that
When you look out in the morning you might see
Clouds rollin' by like memories
And a big old sky above you lookin' back
You may think of me
But I'm a little bluer than that
Where did we go wrong
I wish I knew
It haunts me all the time
Now wherever I go and
Whatever I do
You're always on my mind
I can picture you in his arms tonight
But as for me it don't feel right
To let us fade like some old photograph
It may work for you
But I'm a little bluer than that
Where did we go wrong
I wish I knew
It haunts me all the time
Now wherever I go and
Whatever I do
You're always on my mind
So tonight if you turn your radio on
You might hear a sad, sad song
About someone who lost everything they had
It may sound like me
But I'm a little bluer than that
You may think of me
But I'm a little bluer than that

Bluer Pastures
(Dolly Parton)
I was lookin' for greener pastures
When I left my old Kentucky home
I was chasin' after dreams I thought I'd master
So I left the one that loved me all along
Thinkin' only of myself and doin' better
Didn't care about the grief I left behind
Didn't even make a card or write a letter
So sure I'd be successful in no time
Now I'm heading for bluer pastures
And back to the one who's heart I broke
To the bluegrass state of Kentucky
Where he waits with open for me I hope
Ain't it funny how you are when you're younger?
How what you have is never good enough
How the years will find you searchin' through your plunder
Lookin' for the treasures you gave up
Well the seasons came, they went
The dreams all shattered
While the grass just stayed a lonely shade of brown
Then I realized I'd lost all that had mattered
So with foolish pride aside, I'm homeward bound
Now I'm heading for bluer pastures
And back to the one who's heart I broke
To the bluegrass state of ole Kentucky
Where he waits with open for me I hope
Now I'm heading for bluer pastures
Where the bluegrass waves sweetly in the wind
Where the bluegrass music's always playin'
To the haunting sound of Monroe's mandolin
I'm heading for bluer pastures

Lone Wolf Runs On Wilderness Tundra
i just am
alive delighting
in running
in wilderness
i am the lone wolf
running wild
on the tundra
the song of the wind
is freedom in my fur
the song of the wing
across the steeps the sky
runs as my companion
running water
my talisman
mountains
my rest pillow
freedom running
my home
freedom running
life pulse

Queries...
what is shorter than short?
bluer than blue?
the pale shade of
humility?
what is life short of life?
what is it that does not really
please?
what comes before death
what is it that lives after?
what was there before
we were born?
what permission have i given?
what is the reason for asking
undefined questions?
what limit can i put beyond
my expectations?
what if? i do not.

How Is It Possible?
How is it possible for the sky to be bluer,
that the white-hot sun feels hotter,
that every bird sings outside
and that you suddenly bring back spring
to my early winter?
That I walk with new power,
as if yesterday
I was another man?
That your smile is prettier
than that of any other women,
that my heart is beating hammer beats,
when you are standing next to me?

Running Back
Im a fool now that its over
Can you guess my name?
I make my money singing songs about you
Its my claim to fame
When they say its over
Its not all over, theres still the pain
Id come running
Id come running back to you again
Oh Id come running
Id come running back to you again
If I said I was sorry
Would you still leave me?
I never thought youd go till you did
Believe me
When they say its over
Its not all over completely
cause Id come running
Id come running back to you again
Yes Id come running
Id come running back to you again
I miss that girl
The show is over
And we must all go home
Just leave me by myself
Ill be alright here on my own
If its all over, its all over
And Im all alone
And Id come running
Id come running back to you again
Dont you know Id come running
Id come running back to you again

Deep Thoughts? ? ?
Words pass, past words
Dreams of Dreamt dreams
Spoken verbs now slurd
Gift of the gab, enhanced vocab
Vison sought Image found
Story herd yet not told
Words free no longer bound
Invisible messages being seen
Hearts exposed no longer froze
We tell a tale of a cultured dream
We continue to move while standing still
Vision beyond a view of the ocean
Beneath our feet backward moving hill
Look in my eyes its poetry in motion

Odysseus and Calypso
When he looked at Calypso, while she enticed him,
when the fire in her loins folded around him
he trusted his own humanity to her,
if he denied this he would be lying
that she did not block away Penelope
when together they called out, while she did cling to him
and her eyes were bluer than cobalt,
away from her his life was caged
but more intense than passionate fires
the longing of his wife, child and land
burnt in the depths of his heart
and for days long and many hours
to her shock he stared out over the distant ocean,
wishing to sail to his people.

Running Up That Hill
( Kate Bush cover )
It doesn't hurt me.
You wanna feel how it feels?
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
You wanna hear about the deal I'm making?
You *be running up that hill*
You and me *be running up that hill*
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder.
There is thunder in our hearts, baby.
So much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, *be running up that hill*
You and me, *be running up that hill*
You and me won't be unhappy.
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
If I only could, oh...
'C'mon, baby, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience, oh...'
And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems. x2
'If I only could, be running up that hill.' x7

Sometimes We Know That We Are Here
sometimes
this is what they say
sometimes
we know that we are both
here
together
yet we prefer
to respect our silence
we extend it further
maybe
may be even deeper
like the blue ocean
refusing
to talk to the river
they all look forward
to bluer clouds
and sunny skies
and for these
what is the need of words?
what is the need of
the struggle
to speak? it is the silence that
makes some bonds
stronger
sometimes, they always say that,
sometimes
some time, we may like
it like this way
mute and yet so revealing

All The Glorious Things Of Splendor
She is mine but yet I don’t own her
She makes my life so much better
Life is no longer bitter but sweeter
For all questions she is the answer
Gray skies are now bluer
The moon shines for me brighter
She makes my heart flutter
My existence is now fuller
I adore her laughter
All my burdens seem lighter
She taste of the sweetest nectar
All fruits now are riper
I have started a new chapter
No more stress for she makes me calmer
To heaven she draws me closer
I am truly happier
I have found my four-leaf clover
The breeze now blows cooler
I will love her forever
Into wedlock we shall enter
She is full of wonder
She is a good listener
She is the greatest lover
She is truly a keeper
She is sweeter than sugar
She is hotter than summer
She is my teacher
She is a treasure
She makes me so much richer
She makes me stronger
She keeps me warmer
She makes me smarter
She makes me feel so much younger
She has so much to offer
Although her heart has been broken prior
No woman could ever be nicer
To get to her I’d cross the widest river
I am caught up in her rapture
Each moment spent I savor
With her I feel safer
I am like clay and she the sculpture
In the light her eyes shimmer
My princess with the golden slipper
My rough edges now smoother
Of my story, she is the writer
No love could ever be truer
I have an appointment at the alter
I will love her here and ever after
My beautiful precious flower
No longer the selfish loner
She sparkles like sapphire
I am the flame and her the fire

Running Dream
Running, and running.
Its like I cant stop,
like Im running from something.
Maybe my past.
Could my past really be the cause,
of all my running?
Who knows.
Running, and running.
When I run,
its like I cant stop.
Why do I run so much?
Running, and running.
I run for fun.
For me.
I run for those who cant run.
Those who are physically injured.
Thats why I run.
I want everyone to run.
Running, and Running.
Running to me,
is a unfulfilled dream.
Something I call,
The Running Dream!

Running Away
Ya running and ya running
And ya running away.
Ya running and ya running
And ya running away.
Ya running and ya running
And ya running away.
Ya running and ya running,
But ya cant run away from yourself
Cant run away from yourself -
Cant run away from yourself -
Cant run away from yourself -
Cant run away from yourself -
Cant run away from yourself.
Ya must have done (must have done),
Sometin wrong (something wrong).
Said: ya must have done (must have done),
Wo! sometin wrong (something wrong).
Why you cant find the
Place where you belong?
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (running away);
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (running away);
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (running away);

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (running away).
Every man thinketh his
Burden is the heaviest (heaviest).
Every man thinketh his
Burden is the heaviest (heaviest).
Ya still mean it: who feels it knows it, lord;
Who feels it knows it, lord;
Who feels it knows it, lord;

And ya running away.
Ya running and ya running

Can you run away from yourself?
Cant run away from yourself!
Cant run away from yourself!
Yeah-eah-eah-eah - from yourself.
Brr - you must have done sometin -
Sometin - sometin - sometin -
Sometin ya dont want nobody to know about:
Ya must have, lord - sometin wrong,
What ya must have done - ya must have done sometin wrong.
Why you cant find where you belong?
Well, well, well, well, ya running away, heh, no -
Ya running away, ooh, no, no, no,
Im not (running away), no, dont say that - dont say that,
cause (running away) Im not running away, ooh! (running away)
Ive got to protect my life, (running away)
And I dont want to live with no strife. (running away)
It is better to live on the housetop (running away)
Than to live in a house full of confusion. (running away)
So, I made my decision and I left ya; (running away)
Now you comin to tell me (running away)
That Im runnin away. (running away)
But its not true, (running away)
I am not runnin away. (running away) /fadeout/
