Memory Of You

If you're gonna leave just go on
You can keep the car
I can't live with this love in between
If you're gonna leave just go on
Get out of view
Just be sure and take my memory with you
Make sure now every time take my my memory with you
I don't know the same people
We used to know
There's no way I can find someone new
And I don't go to them same places
We used to go
And I still keep a memory of you
Every damned single time I keep a memory of you
No more blaming, complaining
It takes all my time
No more believing
'Cause there's no happy ending this time
Lead
No more blaming, complaining
It takes all my time
No more believing
'Cause there's no happy ending this time
Now if you're gonna leave just go on
You can keep the car
There's no way I can live with a love in between
If you're gonna leave just go on
Get out of my view
And be sure to take my memory with you
Make sure now every time takes my memory with you
Every damned single time take my memory of you

I kneel in prayer on broken glass
Beg in hopes this too will pass
Your love for life in the long ago
Is someone you don't even know
Your effervescent lust for life
Loses luster overnight
Your tightly orchestrated plan
Wanders off it's course again
And with every battle lost
You get you deserve
You'll never make the big time
'Cause you haven't got the nerve
A place to call your own
Someone to really love
These ordinary riches
Is the stuff your dreams are made of
You stumble through another day
Your get up and go has gone away
Your right to pass has left you down
A marionette, a robot clown
Please try and make some sense of this
Shoot the hoop and swing and miss
The pressure's going through the roof
You're emotionally destitute
And with every battle lost
You get you deserve
You'll never make the big time
'Cause you haven't got the nerve
A place to call your own
Someone to really love
These ordinary riches
Is the stuff your dreams are made of
The stuff your dreams are made of
The stuff your dreams are made of

Off That Bridge
03:18
|
|||
|
I always held my own nobody ever had to provide for me
Then I got all tied up and I couldn't seem to find the opportunity
Just looking for some way to get through
And thankful that I still have you
I'll jump off that bridge when I get to it
I might be down but I'm not dead yet
Nobody knows what tomorrow will bring
So I'm not gonna worry 'bout anything
I was doing okay then I got myself into another big mess
Sometimes its hard to remember all the times and the ways
That I've been blessed
Now my troubles all can stand in line
'Cause tonight I'm gonna have a good time
I'll jump off that bridge when I get to it
I might be down but I'm not dead yet
Nobody knows what tomorrow could bring
So I'm not gonna worry 'bout anything
Its just a show no one really knows what tomorrow brings
I try and try and I never have the time to do anything
Just waiting for my ship to sail in
Then I watch it sail out again
I'll jump off that bridge when I get to it
I might be down but I' not there yet
Nobody knows what tomorrow will bring
So I'm not gonna worry 'bout anything

That Kind Of Love
03:10
|
|||
|
I want the kind of love that makes you
Want to crawl inside her skin
Its a feeling that consumes you
Like a fire from within
You'll give up all of your possessions
Its a full time obsession
And you don't care if you're acting like a fool
I want that kind of love
Romeo and Juliet
Had a love that ended bad
But they gave away their lives
Rather than lose the love they had
It can makes you kind of crazy
It.s so totally captivating
That you know you'll take it
With you to your grave
I want that kind of love
It leaves you helpless
There's nothing you can do
But surrender to the power
That has cast it's spell on you
No sorcerer or magician
Could ever satisfy these wishes
I want to do the things that lovers do
I want that kind of love

Once Upon A Time
03:18

Once upon a time long ago and far away
A storybook line was torn apart in just a day
You shattered some dreams you never know what's inside
The outside is thick and there's so much that you can hide
Nobody said it was gonna be easy
No one said it was going to be
Sometimes you got to take it in your hands
And make it all the things you see
You think you know someone but you never really know
Like an eclipse of the sun the darkness falls on another soul
Just what was on his mind he hid in in so well
Not even a sign and no way that you could tell
Nobody said it was gonna be easy
No one said it was going to be
Sometimes you got to take it like a man
And make it all the things you see
Lead
Once upon a time long ago and far away
A storybook line was torn apart in just a day
You shattered some dreams you never know what's inside
Our outside is thick and there's so much that we can hide
Nobody said it was gonna be easy
No one said it was going to be
Sometimes you git to take in your hands
And make it everything you see
Yes make it every thing you see

Storm Of The Century
03:48
|
|||
|
The clouds overflowed and the rain came down
You could see right away it was swim or drown
There was so much water coming down from the sky
That you felt pretty good just staying alive
There was rolling thunder and hail on the roof
The hail was big as a baseball I'm telling the truth
For a while I was ready to get in my boat
And see how much of my life I could float
It was pouring it was roaring
It was the storm of the century
I got an idea just how bad it could be
When I saw some cows floating down the street
And giant old oak trees just torn by the roots
It came down in buckets man it came down in chutes
And before the people could sound the alarm
A thousand were homeless because of that storm
And as the sirens all filled the air
Someone said it sounded just like a war
We were waging it was raging
It was the storm of the century
Lead
It came down in sheets it was cats and dogs
The water made matchsticks from giant logs
And then an old-timer walked to me and said
Son this is the storm of the century
The Storm of the century

A Box Full Of Moonlight
04:55
|
|||
|
I took a walk on a hot summer's night
One thought of you changed my outlook on life
On the blackness of night sat a necklace of stars
I made a wish for you though you were so far away
And I swore that if I had the chance
I'd put all of your wishes right there in your hand
And I'd give you a box of moonlight
A fire's glow on a winter's night
A hopeful laugh that will chase your blues
A well full of wishes that all come true
And I would cool you in shadow
And keep you safe from the suns glow
Take all your wrongs and we'll make them right
I would give you a box full of moonlight
A box full of moonlight
While I'm away I would like for you
A basket of lazy afternoons
And I'll think of you as I close my eyes
Or reflect on a starry summer's night
And I'll see your face by the rise of the moon
And a present will bring, I will bring to you
I'll give you a box of moonlight
A fire's glow on a winter's night
A hopeful laugh that will chase your blues
A well full of wishes that all come true
And I will cool you in shadow
And keep you safe from the sun's glow
Take all those wrongs and we'll make them right
I'll give you a box full of moonlight
A box full of moonlight
And if you need a hero I could chase
All those dragons in your head
I would sweep you away on a ship full of gold
And we'll sail off into the sunset
I'll give you a box of moonlight
A fire's glow on a winter's night
A hopeful laugh that will shake your blues
A well full of wishes that all come true
And I will cool you in shadow
And keep you safe when the winds blow
Take all those wrongs and we'll make them right
I'll give you a box full of moonlight
A box full of moonlight

Life Can Be Hard
04:42

Life can be funny life can be sad
I've had everything but money and that's not that bad
I've had some rough times
And I've had soft ones too
Life can be hard but it's easy with you
Sometimes it's pleasure sometimes it's a ball
Sometimes we make it with nothing at all
Just friends and good music to help see it through
Life can be hard but it's easy with you
Inside the cities outside the towns
Seems like the whole world is all coming down
Looking for the answer or someone to blame
Going down that road will make you insane
'Lead
Stuck in the middle eyes on the prize
Going in circles can take all your time
Always remember where you are from
And everything that is old was at one time young
So relax and be easy sit back and recline
Take care of your problems on down the line
Through good times and bad times and no money too
Life can be hard but it's easy with you
Life can be hard but it's easy with you
Life can be hard but it's easy with you

Being in love is a lot like being at war
You're out there on that battlefield
And you've forgotten what you're fighting for
I'm wondering just whose side you're marching on
And if I let down my defenses
Are you gonna drop the big one
All's fair in love and war 4X
And just like General George when he crossed that river
I'll always find my way back to the front lines
And home to you
On all the promises made I will deliver
Let's leave this battleground behind and
Make all our dreams come true
All's fair in love and war 5X
Lead
I'm asking you if you would sign this treaty
What I want to do right now is just to
Simply propose a truce
Let us join our country and we'll make a super power
Let our voices work together and just see
What we could do
'Cause all's fair in love and war

Down At The Caspar Inn
05:34
|

There was always something good
Going down in the neighborhood
Always someone you could call
There was always a party going on
You could forget about your cares
In those rooms up the stairs
Back when music was king
And Cochise had a room up there, we'd share
Those times are gone my friend
We won't go that way again
We got down at the Caspar Inn
We got down at the Caspar inn
There's a room just off the stage
Where the players all sign their names
Some have moved on
And others were lost on the way
But you can still hear the blues played right
The T Bones are getting down tonight
JB and Lono and Mike are gonna make it tight that's right
Those good ol' days are gone but
There's still a party going on
Down at the Caspar Inn
Down at the Caspar Inn
Lead
And Coco wherever you are
You'll always be a star
That goes for Boo and Jim Noyes too
And Buzzy who lived in his car
And Bugs will always stay
A giant in his own way
There's always some great tracks from Lenny Laks
He's not looking back
The sounds are always good
From the artist's known as Rogerwood
Down at the Caspar Inn
Down at the Caspar Inn
Down at the Caspar Inn
