Gum Drops

Got big rain drops 
Falling from the sky,
Like big gum drops;
No need to ask me why.
It's gone on practically 
All day.
No, its not gloomy,
But the sun 
Has been hiding, and
I do mean like all day!
There's a good 
Breeze blowing,
Like it's trying 
To be a bad storm.
I see colored leaves
Falling from their trees;
I think autumn 
Might come early,
But I guess we'll just
Have to wait and see.

Hard For Me (Little Thoughts)

If you only knew 
The pain you put me through, 
As you're standing right 
In front of me. 
And yet you've done nothing, 
You see. 
Except for cause 
A little thought 
That gets me in trouble 
All the time. ttt5And now, you see, 
I've changed my ways, 
But the reminder of it 
Always stays. 
I once had arms 
That held me tight; 
The hands of which 
Caused me to fight. 
Fear was what I thought about. 
Depression was what I dreamt about. 
And love is what had made me stay, 
All along those many days. 
Empty promises, 
And broken dreams; 
Still he told me, 
He loved me so. 
I really should have 
Let home go. 
Though he gave me 
Everything I wanted, 
The price I shouldn't have had to pay. 
In spite of everything, 
I'd take him back, 
If he promised one more time 
To change. 
And every night 
I sleep alone; 
And in my dreams, 
I'm back at home. 
I wake up, still alone. 
And that's the little thought 
You see. 
And that's what makes it 
Hard for me.

Used To Be (So Easy)

Verse1: 
It used to be so easy 
For me to sit and write. 
To come up with another song 
About the day and night. 
To sing about the gentle breeze, 
Or birds that take to flight. 
Oh how I wish, 
I wish that I could 
Fly into the night. 

Verse2: 
It used to be so easy, 
But now it doesn't come; 
The music's always in my head, 
And it makes me feels so numb. 
I wish that I could laugh and play, 
Just like I did back then; 
But now my world is black and cold. 
And I'm frozen deep within. 

Bridge: 
And I wish you could see me 
The way I used to be. 
If only you knew how it was! 

Verse3: 
It used to be so easy, 
For me to sit alone. 
Now I simply sit and stare, 
Waiting by the phone. 
It came upon so sudden, 
And now it's simply gone. 
I think about the time we lost, 
And how it was all wrong. 
You never really cared and I 
Should have stayed at home. 

Verse4: 
It used to be so easy, 
I tell myself each day. 
I've tried to simply let it go, 
And pray it goes away. 
I know one day it simply will, 
Then I will be set free. 
Wonder if you'll ever know 
The things inside of me.... 

Bridge: 
And I feel like I'm naked, 
As I tell you these things; 
If only you knew how it was!

All The Time

We search our 
Whole lives to 
Find someone 
To love. 
Some of us 
Are lucky, 
If that's what 
You believe. 
Some of us 
Find it easy, 
If you feel 
That is true. 
Some of us 
Never look, 
As for me, 
I wish that 
Were true. 
Some of us 
Never stop, 
And never find. 
It's a shame, 
I fall there 
All the time.

Every Time

Verse 1: 
Every time I think of you, 
It drives me crazy 
Because I just don't know what to do. 

Verse 2: 
Could you be my only, 
While I think of you solely 
In the nights when I turn blue? 

Verse 3: 
You stay inside my mind, 
And there is no denyin, 
Its just I like what you do. 

Verse 4: 
I could stay forever 
And be just like a feather, 
Drifting slowly in your breeze. 

Verse 5: 
When I jump into your ocean, 
Will you be there and 
Swim to the bottom with me? 

Verse 6: 
And we can count the fishes 
While they keep swimming by us, 
As we slowly drown in the deep. 

Verse 7: 
You are what I'm wantin, 
So just let me know somethin' 
Will you always stay with me?

All New Heights

To look in the eyes 
Of someone who cares, 
Oh what a find; 
Someone who is not afraid 
To give you their piece of mind, 
Oh how much more rare! 
One who sees all your secrets; 
One who sees through your disguise, 
One who can take you 
To all new heights, 
And show you such things 
You only dream about.

The Finish Line

From deep within 
These walls I can hear 
You calling out to me. 
While starring out my window 
I can see you trying, 
But I'm at odds. 
Why are you trying? 
You seem to see right through 
My concrete veil. 
But do you 
Really see me; 
Do you really know me? 
I'm not looking for something fine; 
I'm waiting for something real. 
Can you truly walk the line; 
Could you truly make it passed my hell? 
I am waiting, 
I am waiting 
To see you cross the finish line.
