I feel abused
My heart is stilled
When you're amused
My heart I spill
A heartfelt bruise
My love is still

Enough to fill
Your golden cup
Emotions milled
To grind enough
My heart is chilled
Your words are tough

My heart is kind
Yet you can't see
My love so blind
If I could be
Your man to find
Your love to be

Your love I'd be

In his eyes
I see myself
and in his smile
I see you
will he forgive us
will he forget
will he remember
what we put him through

The ebb and flow
the rising tide
no room to run
no place to hide
it's all behind me
it's all before
I finally made it to the shore
We finally made it to the shore

Some days are treasure
Some days we measure

Seconds that don't rhyme
Tic by tic time is time

I don't look at clocks
I don't own a watch

Time is time
The final rhyme

On purpose
On the surface

Birth till death
Counting breath

Time the final rhyme
Time is only time

Shiloh
In Hebrew " place of peace"
Didn't work out so
For brother Johnny or Uncle Reece
Nor many of Grant's Boy's in blue
Though now many a man
Does rest there in peace
On the field at Shiloh

When I was young
I broke all the rules
Made up my own
And broke them too
My teachers and Mom
Knew not what to do
They implored to my Dad
Who simply smiled
And said "that's my lad"

Forgotten bliss
Fallen in the dark abyss
Throw me a rope
For to hope
I can climb
Back in time
Bliss remembered
Love is tendered

Travelin’ man, giver of song
Wherever you are off to
Don't make it too long
A whisper of your shadow
A glimpse of your song
Tomorrow is new, yesterday gone

Darkness is upon you
Like a forgotten song
Lost in black water without view
World is awaiting on your dawn
Fear stands close, thin is spread thin
Travelin’ man, travelin’ song
Travelin’ man, come back strong
