Like A Valentine

Has anybody seen my baby?
The one with curly hair
The sparkle of her baby blues
The pretty clothes she wear
I love her from her pearly whites
To her pretty feet
She my lovely senorita
Good enough to eat
Chorus:
Like a valentine
Like a valentine
Like a hot tamale
In the summertime
Girl, I want to jump right up
Give a little shout
Tell the whole world about my baby
She really knocks me out
Always treats me like a king
Gives me love and everything
Lay my head upon her breast
She will do all the rest
Chorus:
Like a valentine
Like a valentine
She’ll set you groovin’
On a second line
Every time she walks my way
I feel a little faint
When she says she’s on her way
You know I just can’t wait
Always has a smile for me
That little girl of mine
You should see her in a summer dress
Gets me every time
Chorus:
Like a valentine
Like a valentine
She’s paradise, boy
A love divine

Sounds Of Yesterday
04:06
|

|
Sounds of the past
Voices of my innocence
Calling to me in the night
I hear the sounds of yesterday
Sights and sounds and smells abound
That ring a bell inside my head
Subtle things awakening
The voices of my past
Chorus
So enchanting when I hear
When I hear the heartfelt sounds of yesterday
It’s so intriguing when I dream
When I dream of days so long ago
Songs that spark a memory
Words that tell a story
Of years ago when I was young
When I was just a child
Love affairs that meant so much
Memories of a woman’s touch
Carousing till the break of dawn
The sounds of yesterday
Chorus
It’s so enchanting when I hear
When I hear the heartfelt sounds of yesterday
It’s so intriguing when I dream
When I dream of days so long ago
Guitars that were so amplified
They made my ears ring day and night
I was steadfast, resolute
I didn’t give a damn
Nostalgic melodies in the air
As distant as another life
If I had it all to do again
I’d do it all just right

Good Time People
04:49
|

Standing at the crossroads
Out here on my own
No gravy train a coming
To take my baby home
No rabbit foot can save me
No charm or four leaf clover
Just another restless soul
Trying to get over
Chorus:
Standing here beside me
I will be your guiding light
Bring your broken psyche
I will put it right
Take a look around you
There’s beauty everywhere
Good time people raising the steeple
Up into the air
In a hotel room
Cross the borderline
Seems any bed where I lay my head
Is the one I’m calling mine
There’s a sign post there
Where the hoodoos meet
If you find me there then you best beware
On the dark end of the street
Saw it in your eyes
With the lights down low
The moment passed so I hit the gas
It’s a price no one can know
Mend a broken heart
Lend a helping hand
If you tell me yours then I’ll tell you mine
Till we find a happy end

A picture in a heart-shaped frame
Is all I have to cling to
A picture at my bedside
The only memory true
Sometimes a word will be spoken
An expression or a gesture
Will bring it all back home
And the floodgates open wide
Chorus:
She’s been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
She showed me the gifts life has to offer
Showed me the majesty of love
Opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds us
Her very presence was enough
Chorus:
She’s been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
Sometimes life crosses the boundaries
It’s measured by the distance
Memories of loved ones who will never fade away
Keep us safe from harm’s resistance
Chorus:
She’s been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark

Take me back to the place where I come from
Lost in transit and I can’t find my way home
This modern world it sure does leave me cold
Take me back to the days of young and old
A place to start there
A place of heart there
A place of love there
A place above there
Chorus:
A simple town
Where lovers meet
A dusty road
An empty street
This is where I long to be
All alone just you and me
Take me back to the days when love was true
Ain’t got no one who can love me like you do
We could take a walk down by the bay
Holding hands can’t wait another day
A place to start there
A place of heart there
A place of love there
A place above there
Chorus:
A simple town
Where lovers meet
A dusty road
An empty street
This is where I long to be
All alone just you and me
Take me back to the days when we were free
By the sea is where I want to be
Watch the waves crash against the shore
Hold hands two lovers wanting more
A place to start there
A place of heart there
A place of love there
A place above there

Where It Leads
04:46
|
|||
|
Times are hard and funds are low
Never certain where to go
What will it take to make a change?
I guess we’ll never know
Daily grind disease
Blind to where it leads
Got a job but it don’t pay
Boss gets meaner everyday
Gauge the strain and greet the day
Tomorrow’s bound to find its way
Daily grind disease
Blind to where it leads
Daily grind disease
Blind to where it leads
Bridge:
Straddle the border of no return
No sense of order it’s no concern
When pirates can board her and watch her burn
Then disregard her and never learn
None to defend her she’s on her own
At the end of the battle we’re all alone
Every morning when you rise
Wipe the teardrops from your eyes
No sun don’t shine, no wind don’t blow
No tide subsides from down below
Broken heart disease
Blind to where it leads
Broken heart disease
Resigned to memories
A multitude of compromise
Spirit broken, bound and chained
No love lost for days gone by
No broken hearts but yours and mine
Broken heart disease
Blind to where it leads
Broken heart disease
Resigned to memories

Rise
05:23
|

|
Pictures scattered round
Memories don’t matter now
Learning how to crawl
Ought a know how to walk by now
There’s always one more chance
To get right up and start to dance
Chorus:
People gather ‘round
The afterlife is here and now
It comes as no surprise
The time has come to rise
Scattered like a dream
Things are not always what they seem
The motion draws you in
Here we go ‘round again
If I had my way
I’d have you here for one more day
Chorus:
People gather ‘round
The afterlife is here and now
It comes as no surprise
The time has come to rise
To rise, like a dream
We ascend, to believe
Awakening again, we are free
Passages of time
Do they exist outside your mind?
Future and past
Are they just a star we grasp?
All this folly we embrace
Is it just another time and place?

Cry Yourself Awake
05:41
|
|||
|
Cry yourself awake
Another made mistake
You wonder will you ever learn
Will you ever get your take?
To have a little fun
Your moment in the sun
When all this goes away
You’re waiting on that day
Chorus:
Not gonna be the meekest anymore
Not gonna be the weakest anymore
There’s another kind of war
No despot can ignore
Cry yourself to sleep
Another chance to weep
It’s all so much to take
Another made mistake
Sometimes I think we’ll never learn
No reason for concern
It’s just another day
Where nothing goes your way
Chorus:
Not gonna be the meekest anymore
Not gonna be the weakest anymore
There’s another kind of war
No dictator can ignore
It’s torture more or less
Another rotten mess
The system we’ve become
Will make us come undone
While the parasites ascend
The meekest meet a bitter end
Just take it on the chin
Or let the fray begin

High Again
03:30
|
|||
|
Got no car, I’ve got no home
Got no one to call my own
Once again, I’m alone
Free as a bird
Chorus:
‘Cause I’m high again
Yes, I’m high again
Said I’m high again
And it sure feels good to be alive
Yes, it sure feels good to be alive
Top of the world
That’s where I stand
When you lose it all
You hold a winning hand
Nothing to lose
No demands
The door is open wide
Chorus:
‘Cause I’m high again
Yes, I’m high again
Said I’m high again
And it sure feels good to be alive
Yes, it sure feels good to be alive
Bridge:
Many years have passed since I was a child
I was headstrong, reckless and wild
So many dreams left to fulfill
But hey, the night’s still young
Chorus:
‘Cause I’m high again
Yes, I’m high again
Said I’m high again
And it sure feels good to be alive
Yes, it sure feels good to be alive

My Love
06:55

Who will tear the walls down around me?
Save me from myself
Who will next deprive me?
When I’m running out of breath
If this goes on much longer
I don’t know what I’ll do
All alone here beside the phone, dear
Dreaming about you
Chorus:
My love, my love
You’re all I ever wanted
But you did not care enough
My, love, my love
So much passed between us
Now I bid you sweet adieu
Who will carry me?
Away…today
I’ve been waiting so long
I don’t know what to say
Like a road without measure
My heart calls out your name
I would love you forever
Tell me won’t you do the same?
Chorus:
My love, my love
You’re all I ever wanted
But you did not care enough
My, love, my love
So much passed between us
Now I bid you sweet adieu
