Full Circle 03:49
I was making all the right moves I was breaking all new ground Then before I even realized I'd come all the way around The musings of the world Used to mean so much to me When I was just a young man Before all the things I've seen And yes there was a time When we thought that we could change the world And we had all the power To go and rearrange the world And we would make it better Build it up right from the ground Full circle all the way around And as I grew of age I thought of all the things I'd find But I soon found out I liked to drink till i was blind Those days would last forever Who thought they could ever end And those things that seemed to shake the world Just went blowing in the wind And the people all are strangers And the world is growing cold And nobody loves you When you're growing old And the days will pass Till they put you in the ground Full circle all the way around Full circle Full circle

Stop the war on the poor the black and brown and white Those who hide away in the light of day the children of the night They shuffle their feet on the cold concrete just like prisoners of war The next sentence could be yours in this war on the poor Stop the war on the poor the lowest of the low Stop the diamonds who pull the strings on this old puppet show We lead the world in prisons more than any time before We can't ignore it anymore this war on the poor Look at all the frightened faces you see on your tv Breaking down the doors of the broken poor people like you and me Take care the way you spend your money be careful what you say Or it could be you they break in for and you they take away Piano solo Take a look at all the frightened faces you see on your tv Breaking down the doors of the broken poor people like you and me Take care the way you spend your money be careful what you say Or it could be you they break in for and you they take away Take a look at all the faces with their hollow sunken eyes You know it's true they're more like you than you even realize You hope and pray they go away but the people will endure Of that you can be sure so stop the was on the poor Stop the war on the poor

My Own Life 03:34
My own life my own life In a crowd its just a sea of strangers All confusion it gets in my way When you leave all the parties and dangers Everything changes in every way Going through the motions wondering what it's right for Thinking like that won't get you into heaven anymore You could be the crazy hanging at the liquor store It used to get you off now they got you on the dance floor We're all in this crazy new position No one showing any signs of any vision I want peace but war is what is what I'm seeing But war for nothing's not what I believe in I have to bring it home alive I want to find a way to survive I have to make it in my own life I have to make it in my own life Going to find a way 'Cause it seems to me there's a way of life worth saving Let the rest of the world do what they want Let them find their road and their way let it be of their own choosing Start a war here on poverty here on our own soil It all started with no good reason If it was anybody else you know it would be treason Join in now and party with the big show Instead of taking 'bout the things you don't really know When they ask me how I play with such emotion Natural talent with years of devotion You have to break it down and play it with a feeling Find it in your soul and your heart then reveal it I have to bring it home alive I want to find a way to survive I have to make it in my own life I have to make it in my own life My own life 4X In a crowd its just a sea of strangers All confusion it gets in my way When you leave all the parties and dangers Everything changes in every way

The lights go down the sunlight dims I think about you all over again I walk he streets to get you off my mind But more pain and heartache is all I can find I see you in every face I see I can't believe that you could live without me "Cause I worship you I worship you I worship the ground that you walk on too I dream about the things to come When I will be your only one "cause I worship you ohh you you know it's true I worship you I worship you The days will pas the night will tell All of your wishes in your wishing well A light will shine and you will All of the ways that you love me I went for broke I gave it my all And now I feel two feet tall Please don't say this that is the end Please say that we can start all over again "Cause I worship you ahh you know I do Girl I worship you you know it's true The morning you went away Was the start of my very worst day I thought sometimes I had it so bad Before I lost everything I thought I had I hope love is going to find a way In the dim of night a voice you'll hear And this it will whisper in your sleeping ear Our love was right you know it's true Please love me again I worship you I worship you I worship you And there is no limit to the things I will do Our love's meant to be so strong and true Please tell me again 'cause I worship you I worship you you know it's true I worship you you know I do I worship you I worship you

There's been no other one like this not one time before this time Did I dream you could exist but I saw you in my mind I never got it right till I sang the song with you The real meaning of the words was something that I never knew I've never been a Christian but nonetheless I pray That my Katie will never go away Love is on big gamble it's always hit or miss There's been no other no other one like this Before I saw it in your face I heard it in your voice We just threw ourselves away we didn't have a choice 'Cause spending time with you was just like talking to myself I never felt alone it's true like i did with someone else I've always been a poor man but I'm richer now it's true 'Cause I found my real soul mate in you And everything before us is forgotten when we kiss There's been no other no other one like There's been no other no other one like this There's been no other no other one like this

Well some things in this world are lies Other things are true Most things fall somewhere between the two Some people keep a secret Some will kiss and tell Most folks carry their own private hell I don't want what you're selling So stop screaming in my ear I can't get my head around all the things I hear It's the same old line Guitar Now be careful where you come from And careful what you say Because they can hear you a half a mile away And those things that once were private Are now for all to see And they're trampling rights for our security I don't need your direction And I don't need your help I don't want your action I don't want to close the sale It's the same old line

Red sun in a yellow sky Ashes coming down just like rain Red moon in the black of night I see your light I feel your flame Oh you will live again You will live again The sky will be blue again You will renew again Red sun in a yellow sky Ashes coming down just like rain Red moon in the black of night I see your light I feel your flame

Come over here and kiss me and call my name out loud Raise your voice to the mountaintops halfway to the clouds We're a special situation a fairy tale it's true I knew I'd never be the same the day that I met you For the first time I had somebody For the first time I had someone The first time you said you loved me Was the last time I was alone True love can take you over true love can set you free True love can make a man a lion that's what you do for me And the days are more forgiving they're better than the one before Is there so much more to see or am I seeing more? For the first time I had somebody For the first time I had someone The first time you said you loved me Was the last time I was alone So let's set our sails together across the great divide All my fears just disappear when you are by my side And there's nothing that could stop us no dragons left to slay Oh the things we could have down if I'd known you in the day For the first time I had somebody For the first time I had someone The first time you said you loved me Was the last time I was alone The last time I was alone The last time I was alone

about

I put together these tunes in my small home in Mad River California. It is a bucolic place where you can find some peace of mind. Away from the crazy world. And I'm grateful.
