contines about 13 pieces that I have written,
most of them being lyrics for songs.
Words about love, depression, lonelyness and other things.
Looks like it’s going to rain again
Looks like it’s going to rain again
I can feel the pain again
Looks like it’s going to rain again
I want to see the sun come shineing
And see a full moon every night
Recall the time when I was doing fine
Singing my songs and dreamin’ of holding you tight
Looks like it’s going to rain again
Looks like it’s going to rain again
I can feel the pain again
Looks like it’s going to rain again
I walk out in the pouring rain
And never care if I get wet
Just to feel that I’m in love
I can try and fool ny self I just can’t seem to forget

Love take me away
Far across the sea into another world
Time what do you say
Can you turn the tide and bring me back my girl
All around me as I slowly fall apart
No-one sees my misery
So I shall sail away on wings of gold and green
Leaving all my cares behind me
Love show me the way
I am on this road and traveling all alone
Sun why don’t you stay
Brighten up my life my happyness has flown
She said honey now it’s time to break
the chains
Who am I to disagree
So I shall sail away on wings of gold and green
Leaving all my cares behind me
Love take me away
Love take me away

Maybe I love You
Maybe I love you, so what of it
Call me insincere
Call e what you will
Deep down inside, you’re just a hypocrite
Maybe I love you, what do you care
Call me insecure
Call me what you will
It’s such a shame, God knows that life ain’t fair/ God
knows you’re never here
I won’t play the fool for you
I won’t say I love you
Maybe I love you, I won’t deny
Call me insincere
Call me what you will
When it’s all said, I guess there’s no reply

I’ve got Monday blues, Tuesday blues
Wenesday I’m still missing you
Thurday just aother day
When Friday comes what can I say?
I’m still missing you, still missing you
Stormy weather, darken sky
Wish the clouds would roll on by
All that longing for what was
Makes me cry just because
I’ve got Monday blues, Tuesday blues
Wensday I’m still missing you
Thurday just aother day
When Friday comes what can I say?
I’m still missing you, still missing you
Time stands still or moves to fast
This empty feeling just can’t last
Counting pebbles on a beach
Just like you the’re out of reach
I’ve got Monday blues, Tuesday blues
Wensday I’m still missing you
Thurday just another day
When Friday comes what can I say?
I’m still missing you, still missing you

The fault in me showed, your bridge was
rusted, my heart was cold like the night,
You turned away, you didn’t want to see me, listen to the
reason for the fight.
Moonlight, you done me wrong, you struck me
down in the night
Moonlight , you blinded me, just when I though that it would turn
our right.
And now it seems that you have lost your
dreams and they have all turned into sand
How can I try and make tou understand when you won’t even
touch my hand.
Moonlight, you done me wrong, you struck me
down in the night
Moonlight , you blinded me, just when I though that it would turn
our right.

My love, I think of you all day through
Even when the sun is gone
And night is here
I dream of you.
My love, please say that you’ll
dance with me
And I’ll never let you go
I know you know
You’re all I see
But when you’re here, I seem to lose
myself
Deep in a prayer
Hopeing you never go, I love you so
My love, I think of you all day through
Even when the sun is gone
And night is here
I dream of you.
My love, my feet just don’t touch the
ground
Heaven always seems so near
I feel that way
When you’re around
But when you’re gone, I don’t know
what to do
It’s hard to go on
Wishing that you where near, you know I care
My love, I think of you all day through
Even when the sun is gone
And night is here
I dream of you.

I know I talk in cliches
And it’s all been said before
I know that I’ll be lonly
I can’t take it anymore.
No more love songs, no more love songs
‘cause I’ve heard them all before
No more love songs, no more love songs
I just can’t stand to hear them anymore
I know when I first met you
It just seemed right from a dream
Now when I think about you
Makes me want to shout and scream
No more love songs, no more love songs
‘cause I’ve heard them all before
No more love songs, no more love songs
I just can’t stand to hear them anymore
Now that this song is over
You know broken hearts don’t mend
Don’t fall in love forget it
All good things come to an end
No more love songs, no more love songs
‘cause I’ve heard them all before
No more love songs, no more love songs
I just can’t stand to hear them anymore

Nothing last forever
This we’ve all been told
Even when love seems to fade
It lives within your soul
Nothing last forever
Don’t you sit and weep
He never really loved you
So get yourself some sleep
Life won’t always be
What you want it to be
Girl can’t you see
It time to face reality
Nothing last forever
We all make mistakes
I guess no-one told you
Hearts were made to break
Nothing last forever
Well who gives a damn
Let me say just one thing
Enjoy life while you can

Ohio, the heart of it all
Ohio, Ohio the heart of it all
I read it in a magazine
Says Ohio’s the best place there’s ever been
Pages of a magazine
Says there’s things to be done and things to be seen
Ohio, the heart of it all
Ohio, Ohio the heart of it all
And if I ever lose my way
If I ever fall
There’s one thing for me to do
Just throw back my head and call
Ohio, the heart of it all
Ohio, Ohio the heart of it all
The buckeye state, Ohio. What she wants, Ohio
Fan the flames, Ohio. The grapevine café, Ohio
The great escape, Ohio. Springhill farm, Ohio

On the streets of New York City
I first fell in love
There he was, working in the street
In his steel capped boots and his rubber gloves
I was in love
Working in his steel capped boots and his rubber gloves
I said hello honey
We’ve been wasting time
Where you been all my life
And please don’t tell me, you’ve got a wife
On the banks of the Hudson river
We walked hand in hand
Happyness was my first name
‘cause I was his woman and he was my man
just hand in hand
I was his woman and he was my man
But now I’m walking on my own
He said he really had to go
That his fiance waiting home
I should of know it all along
On the streets of New York City
I first fell in love
Now he’s gone I won’t moan
I’ll just rise my head and thank the stars above, I was in
love
At least I was in love
I’ll just rise my head and thank the stars above
On the streets of New York City
On the streets of New York City

One day your time will come baby
One day you’ll sail away baby
One day you’ll find out you were right
Until then goodbye and goodbye
One day you’ll get away baby
You’ll spread your winds and fly away baby
You’ll leave me here far behind
But that’s alright I’ll see you in a while
You’ll find your gold at the end of the
rainbow
Thogh you may fall along the way
But you may say what do they know
But there’s one thing that I know and I think I’ll
better say
One day your time will come baby
You’ll spread your wings and fly away
One day you’ll find out you were right
Until then goodbye and goodbye

Monday was a grey grey day
Tuesday it was just the same.
Wenesday when you walked into my life that all changed
Thursday we went walking by the sea
Friday it meant so much to me
Come the weekend I was down in misery.
They say that nothing last forever in this
world
Each day of sun musi have a day that’s ful;l of showers
If I could turn the pages back
I wouldn’t miss a single hour
Monday was a grey grey day
Tuesday it was just the same.
Wenesday when you walked into my life that all changed
Wenesday when you walked into my life that all changed

Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
When the night comes along with it’s
darkness
And covers me up with it’s lies
And this world seems to lose all it’s kindness
I’ll just take my comfort from the star spangaled sky
Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
When the sun comes along with it’s
brightness
And lights up the world so I can see
The birds and the trees in their fineness
You know there’s no other place I’ll rather be.
Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
Out on a lonely highway
Reaching for you with the stars in my eyes
