See that girl
Watch her face
I’m pretty sure we think the same
Dark brown curls
Bubbly laugh
Imagine what might’ve come to pass
But I’m right here
And girl you’re there
This wall between us just ain’t fair
In another world I would have loved you
You’re another’s girl but I could’ve loved you
With moves like that,
I groove like that
In another world I could’ve loved ya
There’s a place and time where I coulda loved ya
But why say that
We can’t change past
Girl’s verse:
Look at that
He’s quite the catch
I’m thinking we’d make quite a match
Tilt your head
Flash your smile
To have you boy I’d walk some miles
But I’m right here
And you’re over there
Together our love would go nowhere
In another life I would have loved you
You’re another’s guy but I coulda loved you
With eyes like that
You know I like that
In another world I could’ve loved ya
There’s a place and time where I coulda loved ya
But why say that
We can’t change that
I know I think about you more than I probly should
And all inside my head are ways that it could work
And so I sing (so I sing)
And so I dream (so I dream)
And I’m thinking bout how
In another world, i could’ve loved ya
In another life, I woulda loved ya
With moves like that
I groove like that
In another world I could’ve loved ya
There’s a place and time where I coulda loved ya
But why say that
We can’t change the past
so I sing (so I sing)
And so I dream (so I dream)
And I think abouuuut ... you

It took til we heard time ticking
Until we turned intentional about togetherness.
There’s no such thing as too late,
We had days to appreciate,
But I wish we had more time.
I don’t know why I miss you
It feels like I just met you.
Before you left I thought you should know.
I’m torn up that you’re leaving,
it’d be good to hear you saying,
that you’ll remember me from Mykonos.
Like acquaintances we brushed shoulders for a year,
Like wishful thinkers circled for one more
And finally like lovers
We walked and talked like lovers for a week
Wish it were more
I still wonder why I miss you
I mean I never even kissed you.
Just before you left I called to tell you so
I’m so sad that you’re leaving,
I’ll be glad to hear you saying, that you
remember me from Mykonos
bababa
For years our hands washed dishes in the sink
Wishing I could wipe the soap off of your cheek
Fingers rollin momos through university
Until last night they pulled you close together finally
I know now why I miss you
I’m sure it’s cuz I love you
Just before you left I called to tell you so
I’m sorry that you’re leaving,
But it’s good to hear you saying
That you’ll love me back to here from Mykonos.
Two years, four hands
Holding to a chance
One week, two minds
Running out of time
I know now why I miss you
(Two years). (Four hands)
I’m sure it’s cuz I love you.
(Holding to a chance)
Just before you left I called to tell you so.
(One week). (Two minds)
(...Running out of time)
While I’m sorry that your leaving
It’s good to hear you saying
That you’ll love me back to here from Mykonos

Beauty in the Silence

Come closer to me
Inside I wanna see
I can feel your heat beside me
But I can’t tell you’re here
You say that we’re fine
That your heart is fully mine
But I can feel the cold wind blowing
The hour tells its time
Open up to me
And we’ll feel it set us free
The chains will be broken
Just think, No more captivity
There’s beauty in the silence, I know
But speak your mind, real slow
I really want to help
Give you some support
But your mind appears cloudy
The sun I want to see.
Open up to me
And we’ll feel it set us free
The chains will be broken
Just think, No more captivity
There’s beauty in the silence, I know
But speak your mind, real slow
“I just can’t speak,
I fear what you might think of me,
the constant sweat glistens ingon my cheek,
just hold me here and let me cry tonight
please sing a lullaby,
the weight its hold’s too much right now,
I love you...
let’s not say goodbye.”
Open up to me
And we’ll feel it set us free
The chains will be broken
Just think, No more captivity
There’s beauty in the silence, I know
There’s beauty in the silence, I know
For tonight we’ll keep it so

Crazy World

We live in a crazy world
We’re the ones who’ve fallen
When it’s gone away
You’ll come calling
It’s over now
The sky (has fallen)
I don’t know how
We’ll climb (this mountain)
Look through the painted glass
All the used and wasted
Read how it’s come to pass
The hues we faded
The skies were ours
The stars our freedom
We flew too far
To ever see them
Nothing can stop us
We sure can’t stop us
The ball is rolling to the edge
Ma tried to protect us
We know papa loved us
But soon their children will be dead
Is it too soon
or is it right on time
For this spinning blue
to stop on a dime?
Am I too old
Should I apologize
Or can I one and done
and close my eyes
We live in a crazy world
Where love is borders
When it’s gone away
She’s back to order

Walnut Hills

The pond’s not too shallow
To hold what’s down below
The make of fairy tales
Tops the list of all the swales
Simplicity in the calm
My lover on my arm
As we go round and round
Slowly paddle, not a sound.
The hills covered with snow, the walnuts raining down
The smiles on all these faces slowly curl my frown.
Hey, hey, hey
The leaves they change their color
In Vermont it’s duller
Than it is here; these walnut trees we hold so dear.
Just to have another summer
With all it’s peace and cover
I’d give anything.
To love her, touch her, care for her.
The hills covered with snow, the walnuts raining down
The smiles of all these faces slowly curl my frown
I’ll always have to hold these sweet memories
Just like water in winter I sometimes wish they’d freeze.
Hey hey hey.
