Hello World - Lady Antebellum (New song)

Traffic crawls, cell phone calls.
Talk radio screams at me
Through my tinted window I see
A little girl, rust red minivan
She's got chocolate on her face
Got little hands, And she waves at me
Yeah, She smiles at me

Hello World
How you been
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel, cold as steel
Broken like I'm never gonna heal
I see a light, a little hope
In a little girl
Hello world

Every day I drive by
A little white church
It's got these little white crosses
Like angels in the yard
Maybe I should stop on in
Say a prayer
Maybe talk to God
Like he is there
Oh I know heĆ¢€™s there
Yeah, I know he's there

Hello world
How've you been
Good to see you my old friend
Sometimes I feel as cold as steel
And broken like I'm never gonna heal
I see a light, a little grace, little faith unfurled.
Hello world

Sometimes I forget what livin' for
And I hear my life through my front door
And I breathe it in,
Oh I'm home again
I see my wife, little boy, little girl
Hello world
Hello world

All the empty disappears
I remember why I'm here
Just surrender and Believe
I fall down on my knees
Oh hello world
Hello world
Hello world

When I look at You - Miley Cyrus - Official Music Video

Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a soul
Beautiful melody when the nights alone

Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy (yeah)
When my world is falling apart
When there is no light to break up the dark
That's when i (i) look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and i
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when i (i) look at you

When i look at you
I see forgiveness i see the truth
You love me for who i am like the stars
Hold the moon
Right there where they belong and i know
I'm not alone (yeah)

When my world is falling apart
When there is no light to break up the dark
That's when i (i) look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and i
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when i (i) look at you

When the waves are flooding the shore and i
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when i (i) look at you

You appear just like a dream to me
Just like a line of school colors that cover me
All i need every breath that i breathe
Don't you know you're beautiful (yeah yeah)

When the waves are flooding the shore and i
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when i (i) look at you

Time Space Emptiness

Time
Space
Emptiness
Needing more
Getting less
Ties
Bind
Heart
Mind
Nothing....
Nothing...
Else Matters!!

Peace
Joy
Love
Family
Friends
The heart engorging itself
With love...
Overflowing
Never Ends!

Random Thoughts for Days Past


Some thoughts from my distant past...please bear with me....

Lost

I walk upon a deserted island
Barren and vast
Searching in all directions
for some sign
Some fulfillment
Only receiving an empty stare
Reflecting back
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Only emptiness
Deep emptiness
Staring back at me
Emptiness everywhere.

**********************************************************************

Babe

My sweet
sweet Babe
I often pray for you
I hope you suffered
little
I hope the angels
came for you
And took you some place
beautiful and sweet.

Sweet Baby
I often think of you
I can close my eyes
And envision you
You here with me
I miss you
I miss you since
you've been gone.

***********************************************************

A Lonely Portrait

Dreams that have burned to ashes
Smiles that have turned to tears
It seems like a welcomed sadness
As I surrender to my fears

The heart that is lost forever
Always giving that love in vain
The painting a lonely portrait
Me~
Hiding that love away
Again.

*******************************************************

Enough

Lover it's not I who didn't try
Hard enough
And this is why I'm saying goodbye
I've had enough
Lover don't you see
The pain in me
That's plain in me
That's plain enough
You're never here to catch the tears
I've cried for us
I've tried and tried to put aside
The time to talk,
But without luck
So I'll just lay this letter
Upon your sweater
And I'll just walk away
And this is why
I'm saying goodbye
I've had enough.

***********************************************
Upon My Couch I Lie...

Now I don't feel any pain
I should consider love again
and not let months and years roll by
at least I ought to have a try.

It's all too easy on one's own
supportive friends -- a telephone
and of course I have to mention
the marked absenc of love's tension.

But memories and sentiment
mean I dwell on what it meant
to love another loving soul
life was sweeter, I felt whole.

I slump and gaze with dreamy stares
remembering my love affairs
my mind is cute and must be credited
all the bitter bits get edited.

Mmmm--some warm man to court me,
bait me
someone smart to motivate me
be romantic, sentimental
intelligent but not judgmental.

Give me space, be unsuspicious
always find me quite delicious
he'll love my body and my brain
and I'll be great in bed again.

I know I cannot lift a finger
to find a love song or a singer
if you could send a man along
well who knows--I might try a song.

But now I have no energy
so brave new man must come to me
it is chutzpah I confess--
could you give him my address?

*********************

Tiger

I was never the man-eating tiger
You always convinced me I was.

You mistook my snarl...
it was laughter.
You misunderstood my claws...
I needed attention.

The tiger golden in my eyes
was the sun..
Drowned in growls of
Storm clouds.

I would gladly have given
my skin
for your
Trophy room...

But you were never the
Mystical Rajah
I almost convinced you
You Were.


Never Alone - Lady Antebellum w Jim Brickman

Dedicated to my dear, dear brother ....
I love you Mark and miss you more then you will ever know.


May the angels protect you
Trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when its time to go home
May you always have plenty
The glass never empty
Know in your belly
You're never alone

May your tears come from laughing
You find friends worth having
As every year passes
They mean more than gold
May you win but stay humble
Smile more than grumble
And know when you stumble
You're never alone

(Chorus)
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone

Well I have to be honest
As much as I wanted
I'm not gonna promise that cold winds won't blow
So when hard times have found you
And your fears surround you
Wrap my love around you
You're never alone

(Chorus)
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone

My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone

May the angels protect you
Trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when its time to go home
And when hard times have found you
And your fears surround you
Wrap my love around you
You're never alone

(Chorus)
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone

My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone

Pink Performance 2010- Glitter in the Air

Have you ever fed a lover with just your hands?
Close your eyes and trust it, just trust it
Have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air?
Have you ever looked fear in the face
And said I just don't care

It's only half past the point of no return
The tip of the ice burg
The sun before the burn
The thunder before lightning
The breathe before the fraze
Have you ever felt this way?

Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?
You're whole life waiting on the ring to prove you're not alone
Have you ever been touch so gently you had to cry?
Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?

It's only half past the point of oblivion
The hourglass on the table
The walk before the run
The breathe before the kiss
And the fear before the flames
Have you ever felt this way?

La La La La La La La La

There you are, sitting in the garden
Clutching my coffee,
Calling me sugar
You called me sugar

Have you ever wished for an endless night?
Lassoed the moon and the stars and pulled that rope tight
Have you ever held your breathe and asked yourself will it ever get better than tonight?
Tonight
