Dry Creek

There’s a voice inside
That echoes in my mind
Telling me to beware
And that I’m running blind
But I ain’t gonna listen anymore
To the sound of old boots pacing the floor

There’s a future up over the ridge
And that dry creek was once water under the bridge

As I lay in wait
For what is sure to come
Uncertainty everywhere
Got a hold on everyone
I’m trying hard not to let it rule my mind
But I lost that battle one too many times

There’s a future up over the ridge
And that dry creek was once water under the bridge

I saw a bird up high
On a branch much to thin
And an avalanche in waiting
Teetering on the rim
So hold on tight it’s gonna be a bumpy ride
’Til we find salvation on the other side

Where there’s a future up over the ridge
And that dry creek was once water under the bridge
Yeah that dry creek was once water under the bridge

Cherry Sunburst

I saw you sitting all by yourself
Like you owned the place
Slinging low on the top shelf
Putting a smile on my face
You didn’t need no validation to feel cool
I knew right then of me you’d be making a fool

Someday baby
We’re gonna leave each other alone
Like you were when I met you
Like I’ll be when you’re gone

The first time I laid eyes on you
I had another on my arms
I tried my best just to remain true
And fight your cherry burst charm
But I’d never seen something on God’s green earth so fine
I knew right then and there I had to make you mine

Someday baby
We’re gonna leave each other alone
Like you were when I met you
Like I’ll be when you’re gone

In the middle of the night I’d wake up
Wondering if I had the nerve
Thinking ‘bout how I would hold you
While ever softly caressing your curves

When I close my eyes you won’t let me be
It’s time I make reality of this dream

Someday baby
We’re gonna leave each other alone
Like you were when I met you
Like I’ll be when you’re gone
Like you were when I met you
Like I’ll be when you’re gone

Someday I Will See You

Could be at the supermarket
Coming down the aisle
Could be on a street corner
As the two of you drive by
Could be on the computer screen
Taking photos of yourselves

But someday I will see you with someone else
Someday I will see you with someone else

Could be at a rock n’ roll show
Standing in the crowd
Where I once held you close
Our heads up in the clouds
But now that perfect dream
Sits dusty on the shelf

Someday I will see you with someone else
Someday I will see you with someone else

Happiness it comes in waves
Rolls up and then flows away
But even in the darkest times
There’s a beauty there to find

Probably feel like a bullet train
Racing in my heart
Headed straight for the symphony
Playing in the park
And in a cruel twist of fate
I’ll be by myself

When someday I will see you with someone else
Yeah someday I will see you with someone else
Someday I will see you with someone else

Why Won’t You Call

I’m wondering where you are
Probably hanging late night at the bar
Where last call’s come and gone
And the jukebox has played its final song

While I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
And wondering why won’t you call

Honey I’ll be home soon
Looping in my mind as I pace the room
Your voice don’t sound the same
Once those neon lights called out your name

And I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
And wondering why won’t you call

Do you think about
What it’s like when you’re out in the city
I bet you’re having the time
Of your life out there without me

I heard you sneaking in
Guess you forgot to WD40 the hinge
But I’ll give you another chance
Cuz no one holds me that way when we dance

I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
And wondering why won’t you call

I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
I’m looking at your number
And it’s time that I make the call


Nowhere to Land

Won’t pretend I know what you’re going through
Where you’ve been, where you’re from
Or where you’re headed to
Been gettin’ by most any way you can
Flying like a bird with nowhere to land

I can see it in your eyes the way you look at me
No trust in what I say or in what I believe
It’s coming clear I’d never understand
What it’s like to fly with nowhere to land

It’s hard to find the words to say
So I’m gonna do less looking and more listening today

Woke up to another new day coming down
Beauty in the sky not so much on the ground
For too long my head’s been in the sand
But it’s time I fly with nowhere to land
Yeah it’s time I fly with nowhere to land


After the Storm

The stream will flow
Through the desert down below
We’ll get back to what we know
After the storm
The ice will melt
Like the pain that we felt
A better hand will be dealt
After the storm

There’ll be children outside playing in the park
Hand in hand we’ll walk these streets after dark
The clouds give way to clear
Like the blues they’ll disappear
So far yet so near
After the storm

A shattered window pane
Or damage from the rain
It might not look the same
After the storm
But that’s alright yeah that’s fine
Feels like forever we’ve been inside
Let’s go out for a drive
After the storm

And watch that sundown crashing into the hills
It’s getting late but I know we can make it still
Cuz it’s been on my mind
But thoughts ain’t worth a dime
We’re putting in the time
After the storm
We’ll leave that news behind
After the storm


Makin’ the Rounds

Did you hear that thunder
Crashing down last night
It kept me up ’til the morning
Got me not feeling right

Yeah I’m falling
Falling down
But I’ll keep crawling
Makin’ the rounds

Somedays roll on easy
Others they hit you hard
One hot minute you’re ruling the world
The next your clothes are out in the yard

Yeah I’m falling
Falling down
But I’ll keep crawling
Makin’ the rounds

I got nothing to offer
You don’t already have
But I’ll lay this heart on the table
You can have your way with that
But for heaven’s sake
You can bend but please don’t break

Gonna tell you how I love you
For you I’d do anything
Cuz we don’t know what’s around the corner
Or what this day will bring

Yeah I’m falling
Falling down
Oh I’m falling
Falling down
But I’ll keep crawling
Makin’ the rounds

Did you hear that thunder
Crashing down last night


With You in the Morning

I wanna wake up with you in the morning
Baby won’t you stay right here
I wanna wake up with you in the morning
Please don’t you disappear

This day’s got me down
Better when you are around
Under the covers we drown
Together we’ll go down
I wanna wake up with you in the morning

You fill me up with love and affection
Keeping me off my knees
Moving in the right direction
To face what’s in front of me

This day’s got me down
Better when you are around
Under the covers we drown
Together we’ll go down
I wanna wake up with you in the morning

Red flags waving at me
Deadlines that I missed
To your love all take a back seat
I could get, I could get used to this

This day’s got me down
Better when you are around
Under the covers we drown
Together we’ll go down
I wanna wake up with you in the morning
I wanna wake up with you in the morning


Cobwebs

Cobwebs on the ceiling
Cobwebs on the floor
Hanging in the corner
Gettin’ harder to ignore

I’m just trying to figure out what to do
About those cobwebs between me and you

We push ‘em to the side
But we know they’re still there
From them we try to hide
Act like we don’t care

What once was old has become new
ust like those cobwebs between me and you

It was only a dream I had
That I can’t seem to shake
But is it so bad
If I don’t ever wanna wake

I dreamed that you’d realized
How much you needed me
And we looked so happy
Like lovers on TV

We walked hand in hand down the avenue
Without those cobwebs between me and you
Yeah without those cobwebs between me and you


Too Fast for Me

The days roll on forever
The nighttime never ends
The weeks creep by
Turns into months
Then it starts all over again
Still it seems that this world
Is moving too fast for me

I know I kept you waiting
On the edge of your seat
But a wrench fell into my plans
For doing the thing that I should be
Yeah it seems that this world
Is moving too fast for me

I ask my heart I ask my mind
But neither one seem to have the time
To give advice on anything I need
I wasn’t around when I should have been
Had to go chase some silly wind
Thought I felt the concrete
Drying ‘round my feet
This world is moving too fast for me

Sometimes it’s like I’m standing
Alone in the back of the room
Waiting for that next tomorrow
That always comes too soon
Yeah it seems that this world
Is moving too fast for me

Like a tornado roaring into town
Spinning low never touching ground
Picking me up and then letting me down with ease
So out of this town’s where I need to go
They cut down the trees in the shady grove
What once was real now only memory
This world is moving too fast for me
And now that it’s slowed down I finally see
This world is moving too fast for me
