Early years
You're born and you walk
You learn how to talk
You fall and you fight and you try to be nice
Summer through to Spring, Absorbing everything
If you're lucky you will have love to surround you,
That reflection is yours and it's the image you're bound to,
They send you to school to learn by the rules
Joining the next generations of fools
Stop and look around
You start putting off today what you won't do tomorrow
Loading up on fear and stocking up on sorrow
But there's magic in those moments,
There always be a higher path, You only have to choose it
These are the days That I'll always remember
Slipping by so fast from January to December
The laughter and tears of these Early Years
She catches your eye with that beautiful smile
She laughs at your jokes and fills you with hope
But she's got trouble at home Needs a place of her own,
It would take her forever but we could afford it together
We'll get that loan and we'll call it home
We'll feather that nest with what we do best
Makes sense to cohabit now we're at it like rabbits
These are the days That I'll always remember
Slipping by so fast from January to December
The laughter and tears of these Early Years
So This is my life and this is my bed
And lying between us is the future unread
And here in my arms with the power to disarm me
Is my reason to live a vision of what will be
Stop and look around
These are the days That I'll always remember
Slipping by so fast from January to December
The laughter and tears of these Early Years
Stop and look around

What you Wanted

What you wanted
Just a little pill to take away the edge
Something to turn down the voices in your head
A little help to push away the suffering
But now you really don't feel anything
No more highs and lows or Joy or misery
Just an empty space where your soul should be
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
A family man whose glory days are far behind.
He was flattered by her invite back to mine
Was it worth it for a shot a younger days
When life was blue and not just shades of grey
Now in your children's life you just don't play a part
You're just a shelfish man who broke their mothers heart
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you wanted?
One day we might find
Not what we want, maybe what we need
or something better
losing everything for something better
losing everything.
It could take a while but you will work it out
All the money in the world won't ease that sense of doubt
We learn to make a living not a life
And following the herd don't make it right,
chasing down the latest shiny thing
and all the emptiness and hollowness it brings
This is what you wanted?
This is what you wanted?

Love Is

Love is
Love is like a circle, No beginning or no end,
Endless and ethereal It fixes and it mends
A universal currency That only appreciates,
A never ending energy We can all create
Love is that warm fire that protects you from the frost,
And the kindness of a stranger when all you hope was lost
Love is there in Nature The rising and the fall.
The push behind the seed
The sound of your mothers call,
Love is lack of fear
That emotional connect
Love is all you need. Love is perfect
Love is life in motion with you all the time
It'll Fix you when your broken There behind that smile
Love is an equation you may never understand,
Call and it will find you,
Its power will be in your hands
Flowing like a river and it's rushing at full speed.
Love is all around Love us all you need
Love is all
All is Love
Love is all you need
