Verse 1]
You're so incredible,
the most amazing man.
I'm taken to new heights of pleasure
with the touch of your hand.
There will never be another man
in my life who compares.
Your eyes, your smile...
no one as perfect anywhere.
I will never forget, or stop loving you...
Well would ya lookie here, my dear…
I can lie too!
[Chorus]
I can lie just like you do!
Make promises, plan dreams that will never come true.
I didn't know I could be such a fool!
I guess I was never, ever
good enough for you...
See? there I go again, I can lie too!
[Verse2]
You are the man
of every woman's dreams.
You sure knew your way
around my body
I guess I had you going
with all the fuss I made
So glad I was the star of all my high-school plays
Because you are an imposter...
And baby I should win an Oscar…
Cause as you can see
I can lie too!
[Chorus]
I can lie just like you do!
Make promises, plan the dreams that are never coming true.
I didn't know I could be such a fool!
I guess I was never, ever good enough for you...
See? there I go again, I can lie too!
A raw and calloused thumb
Sliding over steel
The sound of buzzing string
Is the only thing that's real
A kind and loving world
A place I saw on screen
That kind that won't exist
The kind that makes me scream
I strike another chord
I play until I bleed
It's the kind of sound I want
It's the kind of sound I need
To make it through the day
To make it through the week
To make it through my life
To lift me when I'm weak
I pay another bill
I write another check
I click another mouse
I'm at another desk
I wipe it all away
When I play the tetra line
I'm in another world
The kind of world that's kind
In the quiet corners of my mind-
A fuzzy friend named Cubby still resides.
Years ago, when I was three,
He tumbled into my life, so warm and free.
His legs once jiggled, full of beads,
Now gently limp, shaped by years and needs.
Stitches faded, fur rubbed thin,
Yet love, not fabric, holds him in.
Psychology whispers: attachment, security,
But Cubby is more than theory-he's memory's purity.
He's comfort on restless nights,
A silent listener to childhood's frights.
One summer day, a suitcase closed-
Cubby missing, my heart exposed.
Tears spilled all the way back home,
I felt so lost, so all alone.
But surprise! My brother's gentle tease:
He'd tucked Cubby away, aimed to please.
The ache of loss became relief so sweet-
Reunion turning sorrow to heartbeat.
Why do we long for what can't speak?
Why do soft things make us weak?
Perhaps in Cubby, I see a part
Of something gentle in my heart.
He's more than cotton, thread, and fur-
He's childhood's echo, comforter.
Psychology says it's just a phase,
But Cubby's love, it never decays.
Shadows on the edge,
memories slide out of view
never full focused—
the past lingers like a breath
you turn to catch, but it's gone
Sideways glances sway
moments in periphery
blurs smear the mirror—
déjà vu calls to play its hand
closing again, happenstance
Gazing at the lake
trees melt into reflection
golden rays adrift—
I reach to hold the shimmer
my fingers grasp only air
A leaf in the wind
fluttering in dusk-lit breeze
reminds me of you—
every sideways glance reveals
the weight of recognition
Wharf boards creak beneath
our bare feet press grips
we leap without thought—
each splash resounds in my chest
as time refuses to pass
The late sun hovers
painting ripples in copper
horizon half-formed—
déjà vu hums in waves
whispering, be still, be calm
Beneath the surface
voices travel in bubbles
half-song, half-echo—
rising like our lost laughter
from another life we lived
All glimpses return,
lakes, ripples, sunsets, jumps, leaves,
sewn multi-threaded
sideways in peripheral
repeats until the love stays—
I have lived in your Life — once before —
A whisper — through your Door —
A Shadow bent upon the Chair —
That was — and is — not There.
I knew your Breath — before your Mouth —
I touched the Sun — by going South —
And in your Gaze — a Window shone —
To prove — what I had always known.
The Years — cannot divide the Thread —
Nor Silence — hide the Words — unsaid —
The Pulse remembers — though the Vein —
Denies the Music — once again.
I have Lived — in your Life — before —
I will — when Time admits — once more —
Beyond the Grave — or Clouded Door —
Eternity — repeats the Score.
the first time i felt it
was not a word but a hush
between leaves and the bluest sky—
a breath of you
inside the trembling air
(oh how small i was
with the world rushing by
and softer than reason)
your hand—
or was it light itself—
touched my chest
and opened a door
where no walls had ever been
the first time i felt it
i learned silence could sing
and forever could fit
in a single heartbeat.
Lyrics By JT Curtis
I Wish I Had A Wish
I wish I had the time
to write a little verse
making it a song
not short or very long
for better or for worse
But it probably wouldn't rhyme
I wish I had some money
Now, that would be a laugh
Growing from a tree
falling down, around on me
The Taxman would take half
Now,that's not even funny
I wish I had a friend
joining me to the finish
to take my hand when I've fallen
and come running as I'm calling
But in time, it would diminish
And I'm sure that it would end
Oh, I wish I had a wife
it would be a happy time
we could sit and talk for hours
see the world, and make it ours
But then the final crime
One of us, must loose our life
Oh, I wish I had a wish
I would put it on a plate
and serve it up to you
to see what you would do
something simple, something great
Or just leave it on the dish
We have a bond that makes us strong
A bond inseparable, no matter how long
We’ve made our allies, we hold them dear
In laughter, in tears, we conquer the feared
No plans to leave the shining stars
Never to enter the shadowing dark
Together we flourish, together we stand
Embracing the twists, our paths unplanned
We share our dreams, like whispers in the breeze,
In the warmth of our laughter, we find our ease.
With hearts intertwined, we dance through the day,
Forever united, come what may.
Through every challenge, we face with a grin,
With you by my side, I know we will win.
In moments of joy and in times of strife,
Our friendship's a treasure, the best part of life.
A poet writes from what they see,
From stories told, from memory.
Not every line is their own pain,
But borrowed clouds, or gentle rain.
They speak in ink, not spoken word,
They catch the cries that go unheard.
Yet people think each verse they weave,
Is just the life that they believe.
A poet shapes both joy and strife,
Not only from their inner life.
They hold a lantern in the dark,
And light the world with but a spark.
But poetry is a mirror’s art,
A crafted song from every heart.
It holds the world in shaded light,
And turns our shadows into sight.
Their craft is more than flesh and bone,
It sings of all, not theirs alone.
A mirror held to every face,
A written song, a timeless trace.
Wait up, you’re going too fast
Fast-paced and felt like the feelings won’t last
It’s the past, it’s so the past
It’s a waste of my time and I think I need a cast
I’m sorry, mother and father
I can’t make it any longer
I must hang my feelings up high
Can’t deny I feel so bad inside
I’m sorry to hear you speak fast today
Yet I can’t hear a word you say
Day by day, I’m feeling so much dismay
Maybe it’s better to keep it in this way
I’m sorry dad and mom
I feel so numb inside, there’s no where I can hide
I’m sad and so alone and feel so dumb
You broke me and my selfish pride
I have become the victim in my life
Wish I had a wife instead of this strife
I’m sorry, mother and father
I can’t make it any longer
I must hang my feelings up high
Can’t deny I feel so bad inside
I’m sorry, mother and father
I can’t make it last any longer
But, I did things in the past
I would rather keep inside before I run too fast…
Behind…
Do you mind
If you’d keep it in the past some time?
You guys are not a waste of time,
But my worrying is a waste of time
Yes, you can see the sky
When you alive.
You sees the colours of sky that
may, reminds of the chapter of life.
Sometimes you are sad and cry!
And it rains from the sky. Please!!
Notice, sky not may beautiful by it’s won
So.. Why your life would be cool without deeds?
Ofcourse, it has no end. But you have!
Decorate your life as the sky does with clouds,sunlight, birds.. If sky tolerate the pollution, thunders.. Why can't you?
Anything you do, but at last..
You will be a little star of Nights sky.
[Verse]
When you have put in all the effort
You've planted the seeds
Everyday in everyway, on your feet and on your knees
You weep with all your heart
for the broken and the lost
That they'll turn to God,
And finally count the cost
But still they seem to only turn away…
Who can change a heart, open eyes, and make them understand?
God can! God can! Oh oh, God can!
[Chorus]
Remember child of God
He is mighty and in charge
He's the creator, and the king of all
So if you're doing your part
But somehow still missing the mark
Don't forget the Master has a plan…
God can! God can!
[Verse]
When nothing in your life
Seems to be going alright
You try to keep it all in line
But it's slipping from your hands
When it's out of your control
You gotta learn to let it go
And remember when you just can't…
God can! God can!
[Chorus]
Remember child of God
He is mighty and in charge
He's the creator, and the king of all
So if you're doing your part
But somehow still missing the mark
Don't forget the Master has a plan…
God can! God can!
[Tag]
When you've done all you can do…
Let God do all you can't
Because he surely can!
God can! God can!
Songbird Rise ~ dawn's chorus flickering fire of life.... burning endless embers...song birds sing at the coming of light...
peaceful pearched in heights lovely gaze,...high above pastel colors flow from distant range...
spiritual chants spill in loving song...birthing a new day...
as a warm breeze meanders on...
Free Coffee Lyrics by Dan Turner
It came quiet as the night
Nothing you could fight
It drifted unnoticed in the air
More lethal than an angry bear
He didn't feel a breeze, he didn't feel a change
Nothing out of order, nothing struck him strange
It bound to his hemoglobin, 200 times as strong
His cells were suffocating, all systems going wrong.
They found him in my car, a snow drift behind
The got him out in time for the poison to unwind
I researched it, other compounds also creep in stealth
They may change the way you act, they may destroy your health.
A crime mob found this out, they can ambush, poison you
The motive might be foggy, the method leaves no clue
Just another thing to worry about these days
Bad things can happen, in so many new ways.
See, there are crimes you know were done
But with stealthy drugs in air, there is no smoking gun
We can rub the wrong guy the wrong way
then wonder why the joy fades out, and our life goes gray.
