Premium Member It's Easy Talking, Easy Walking with You
We've had our shouts and share of aches But inch by inch and side by side, We learned to bend before it breaks, To give a little, then a lot besides. It’s easy talking, easy walking with you. Like slippin' n sliding through the morning dew. No need to run, no need to hide, Just slow dancin', down by the riverside. Every laugh,...

This Damn Song
All I want in this whole world is someone to love, Someone to hold, to cherish, to dream of. All I need is someone to comfort me— To stand by my side, to help set me free.

Unceasing Care
I don’t need the stars to show me light, Your hands have held me through every night. Even in silence, I feel you there— Breathing in rhythms of unceasing care. You are the calm in the middle of storm, The coat around me, quiet and warm. Wherever I wander, you're always near— My shelter of love, my unceasing care. No need for grand...

Stones and Shadows
They played on the jukebox—The Rolling Stones, In a bar where old time softly groans. A voice called out for ANGIE, low, Like a ghost from many years ago. She danced like HONKY TONK WOMEN do, In denim dreams and shoes so blue. He watched her move, UNDER MY THUMB, But knew her heart would never come. She vanished like a RUBY TUESDAY...
