An angel's halo emerges from wispy clouds
Shades of blue blanket the night sky
Stillness
Wind softly rustles in the still night
A distant campfire crackles
Warm breeze rustling the hair from my face
Calmness
The sky and sea are one in the same
Distant stars glimmer afar
Enormous shadows guard the night
Breathtaking

Here we are
One and done
A love gone astray

Feeling used
A bit confused
As trash just thrown away

Perhaps one day
You'll realize
The value of what you had

A loving friend
A romantic end
Something not so bad

Life will go by
The tears will dry
A love pulled apart

Put up your walls
Watch us fall
You'll always have my heart

Here we are
One and done
As once again you leave

Feeling used
A bit confused
What exactly did this achieve?

I’ve melted ice, I’ve frozen fire
I’ve seen the ways of love’s desire before
I’ve lit the candle, touched the flame
I know that things won’t be the same anymore

Life flashes by quickly before our weary eyes
And sometimes we have to say goodbye

We’ve walked together hand in hand
We’ve blown away just like the sand from the shore
We’ve lived our lives as night and day
And now there’s nothing left to say anymore

Time changes things quickly before we realize
Then sometimes we have to say goodbye

We’ve struggled through the years as time has passed away
And in this time of grief there are no words left to say

Time changes things quickly before we realize
Then sometimes we have to say Goodbye

Goodbye

A troubadour seeking Abby Road

Strolling with his dog Marshall

Scarlet Shoes, ruby holster

Bus pauses, traffic stops

Stories and secrets housed within six strings

The calm before the storm

Solitude before the chaos

The writing on the wall

Flashbacks of decades gone flutter past Zebra Crossing

Seeking the home of the loud

Touching lives of strangers in ways unknown

A pocketful or crumpled ****

It’s the destination not the journey

Sideway glance….all eyes on me

My swagger makes them stagger like a pub crawl

Bought my confidence in a second hand shop

But I’m trying not to fall in these shoes

Watchful eyes stare at him from the top of the bus

If only another time another place
We could escape this life and run away
If only another time

Across the ocean so far away
A chance encounter brought you my way
But roots have planted those family trees
Another time.. What could have been?

If only another time another place
We could escape this life and run away
If only another time

Words shared between us so easily
To get us through those lonely nights with fantasy
In playful moments a distant kiss
Time shows no mercy hit or miss

If only another time another place
We could escape this life and run away
If only another time

Time changes, life passes
For all we see
Shadows of our memories

If only another time another place
We could escape this life and run away
If only another time

I will long for the sound of your voice
Until We Meet again

I will crave the beauty of your face
Until We Meet again

I will forge ahead in strength
Until We Meet again

I will be lost without your morning message
Until We meet again

I will dream of you day and night
Until We meet again

My heart will beat for you
Until We Meet again

My love will grow for you
Until We Meet again

You will live inside my heart
Until We Meet again

I will ponder the wonder of us
Until we meet again

I will feel an emptiness inside
Until We meet again

Ten days will feel like an eternity
Until we meet again

I will know you are somewhere under the same moon
Until we meet again

I will hold you in my memory
Until We meet again

I will cherish you in my heart
Until we meet again

My love for you will remain
Until We meet again

One spirit
One voice
In him rejoice

One light
One way
His love won’t stray

All you’ve got to do is surrender
Put all your plans aside
Let the masterful creator
Lead and be your guide

One dream
One hope
His strength to cope

One word
One phrase
To sing his praise

All you’ve got to do is surrender
There’s no better time than this
Made in the image of the one true God
Open up, don’t resist

One spirit
One voice
In him rejoice

One light
One way
His love won’t stray

Our ways are not the same as his
He’s not looking for perfection
Rest in the Father’s hands

One spirit
One song
In him we belong

One hope
We pray
For salvation one day
