- Track Name: In The High Sierras
-
In the High Sierras, mountains cold as ice,
you can almost see forever.
When that evening chill, surrounds you late at night,
and the stars so bright around you.
On a lake without borders,
and the world so far away
on this California snow capped mountain range
On a moonlit night, I thought I saw the condors flight,
but it was only shadows I was seeing.
For a moment I thought that, I could touch the sky,
Thinking I was only dreaming.
How crazy life seems,
when the best of life can be,
on this California mountain, so free.
On a winters night, the fire warm and bright,
a good friend of mine to talk to.
The Ponderosa pine, a ladder to the sky,
in the high Sierra mountains. - Track Name: Reaching For The Source
-
Now I walk a different path,
Waiting for the sounds to pass.
Reaching for something that’s bigger than life,
Reaching for the source.
Reaching out into the night,
Waiting for that spark of light.
When you walk your chosen path.
Waiting for the signs to pass.
Reaching for answers to questions unknown,
Reaching for the source.
Even though I should not follow,
I‘ll follow you.
Even though I should not follow,
I‘ll follow you there.
Standing there among the stars.
Feeling small yet growing large.
Seeing life through the eyes of a child,
Reaching for the source.
Reaching out into the night,
Waiting for that spark of light.
Even though I should not follow,
I‘ll follow you.
Even though I should not follow,
I‘ll follow you there. - Track Name: Don't Tarry
-
I‘m learning how to be my own,
My own kind of man.
Just when I thought that I knew you,
I found that I don‘t understand.
Now all are dreams are forsaken,
and the memories that we had.
Its been three months since I’ve seen you,
It all seems very wrong.
And when you find what you wanted,
I hope it won’t be long.
So please don’t leave me waiting,
while you tarry this along.
It’s said that everyone needs someone,
I wonder if that’s true.
No I don’t think I’ll believe it,
Not if I can’t have you.
So please don’t leave me waiting,
while you tarry, this along.
Now all these long night are empty,
But for the memories of you.
So I will hold to this feeling,
Until I hear from you.
So please don’t leave me waiting,
while you tarry, this along.
Don’t tarry this along . . . .
Don’t tarry this along . . . .
Don’t tarry this along . . . . - Track Name: A Reason To Get Stoned
-
Into the earth we will all go in time.
But fly like a bird,
you just might just lose your mind.
Look for a reason to get stoned.
Out of your pocket you pull your last dime.
Into the world you will go,
Into the streets you will roam,
And To the cops you get sold.
You can’t see the reasons, you can’t see the lie.
If you are queasy he‘ll give you a line.
you’ll get to the bottom,
in so little time.
Now you have a reason to get stoned.
Out of your pocket you pull out a knife.
Into the world you will go,
Into the streets you will roam,
And To the cops you get sold.
You can’t see the reasons, you can’t see the lie.
Into the earth we will all go in time.
But fly like a bird,
you just might just lose your mind.
Look for a reason to get stoned.
Out of your pocket you pull your last dime.
Into the world you will go,
Into the streets you will roam,
And To the cops you get sold.
You can’t see the reasons, you can’t see the lie. - Track Name: It Never Crossed My Mind
-
I guess you didn‘t see, I was always on your side.
And you just couldn‘t say, what was killing you inside.
But It never crossed my mind,
to up and leave you standing on the side.
It never crossed my mind, that you would just walk away
No it never crossed my mind,
You could ever be so cruel
I guess you couldn‘t cope, or you thought that things were bad.
So you just walked away, but now your crying to come back.
But It never crossed my mind,
to up and leave you standing on the side.
It never crossed my mind, that you would just walk away
No it never crossed my mind,
You could ever be so cruel
All the hateful things we do, all the silly things we say.
When life can seem so blue, and you run your friends away.
But It never crossed my mind,
to up and leave you standing on the side.
It never crossed my mind, that you would just walk away
No it never crossed my mind, you could ever be so cruel.
No it never crossed my mind, you could ever be so cruel.
No it never crossed my mind, because i always loved you. - Track Name: A Hundred Reasons
-
A hundred reasons to run away,
A hundred reasons more to stay, And carry on
Feeling lonely but you don’t try
You must go out and touch the sky, And carry on
There’s no reason for you to be afraid,
If you just go out and try.
There’s a silver lining
always hidden underneath those gray sky’s,
That’s why I fly.
A hundred reasons to say good bye
A hundred reasons more to try, To carry on
Try to hold on to your dreams
Never let go but set them free, To carry on
There’s no reason for you to be afraid,
If you just go out and try.
There’s a silver lining
always hidden underneath those gray sky’s,
That’s why I fly.. . . .
Up to the sky. . . .
No don’t ask why. . . . You have to try. - Track Name: When You're Not Around
-
We have not traveled this far,
on dreams we’re wishing.
Though we pretend not to see,
the dreams we’re missing.
And it seems we have no sense of time,
and times I wonder if you’ll still be mine, tomorrow.
And I can’t hear a sound,
and I can’t see the ground,
and there’s no love I’ve found,
when your not around.
Lady you must know that I
will love you forever.
When you are near me the skies,
are clear and blue.
Only in time will you know,
that I will not let you go, now that I found you.
We have not traveled this far,
on dreams we‘re wishing. - Track Name: I Want To Know You
-
On a ship sailing the ocean
evening breeze carry me home
I want to know you
I wish I had told you how I feel.
Looking glass peering through moments
lonely cries a Seagull on high
carry me home now
bring me along with you tonight.
If I could see you know
I’d be alright
then I could carry on
be with you tonight.
Seeing you through mirrored waters
only now my eyes can see
moments of magic
reflections of what you mean to me.
Stormy skies feeling foreboding
moonlit night feelings are high
the harbor is calling
the watchtower lanterns burning bright.
If I could see you know
I’d be alright
then I could carry on
be with you tonight.
Early dawn peaceful yet lonely
endless miles between you and me
I want to know you
I wish I had told you how I feel. - Track Name: Hello Here We Are
-
Hello here we are, the day is new.
I know that we are, a song of two.
I hold you while your sleeping, and I kiss your brow.
Hello here we are, together now.
Hello here we are, under the moon.
I know where we are, just me and you.
I hold you while your sleeping, I feel your heart beat.
Hello here we are, in love so sweet.
While this world goes on spinning round.
Until the sun should cease to shine,
If we should last till the end of all time.
Then I will still be yours, and you mine.
Hello here we are, the day is new.
I know that we are, a song of two.
Cause I hold you while your sleeping, and I kiss your brow. Hello here we are, together now. - Track Name: I Dreamed Today
-
I dreamed last night,
We were together.
You needed me.
we held each other.
And I dreamed, I dreamed forever.
Though our son was grown,
our hearts were young.
And the years went slow,
now our lives were one.
And the dreams we shared,
had finally come.
I Dreamed that I,
could not be woke.
For I’d lose the love I’d found,
but the Sun had rose.
And it shook my world,
I found myself alone.
I dreamed today,
I was alone.
I dreamed today,
I dreamed alone. - Track Name: The Eagle Is Watching
-
Standing on this mountain,
with the cool wind in my hair.
And the breeze sings a melody,
like an echo, from a voice no longer there.
There’s a tree so bent and old,
and it watches time go by.
In the winter it will slumber,
and awaken, when the snow has passed us by.
Now the Eagle is watching,
on wings of gold.
And the Coyotes singing,
far away down below.
Now I would not want to see them go.
From the tall pines and meadows,
to the streams that feeds the plains.
Where the living must take from life,
and give it, back again another day.
This mountain it is my home,
and these plains are my back yard.
But they do not belong to me,
or to those who, close it in with fences barbed.
Now the Eagle is watching,
on wings of gold.
And the Coyotes singing,
far away down below.
Now I would not want to see them go.
The Wolf used to roam this land,
where the Grizzly made his stand.
And a great nation waned despair,
for the gods, who are always just and fair. - Track Name: Old Growth
-
Build me up, then tear me down, Turn me upside down.
Catch a breeze on the winds of time, Watch the wheels go round.
Selfless deeds that no one sees, take you even higher
To cast aside the egos mind, And set the soul on fire.
The things we‘re told, aren’t always sound.
And what we know, can hurt somehow.
There’s what we need, there’s being free.
There‘s always time for old growth now.
Oh those old growth trees.
Give me hope, there‘s still old growth in me.
I stepped outside, The egos mind, to catch a sleeping fool,
but found instead, I‘d been mislead, I found I was that fool.
So take me to, the river of, three crossings up the road
If I return, then I‘ll have learned, that now’s the time to grow.
The things we‘re told, aren’t always sound.
And what we know, can hurt somehow.
There’s what we need, there’s being free.
There‘s always time for old growth now.
Oh those old growth trees.
Give me hope, there‘s still old growth in me.
