LP 45

I hope someday to find someone who understands how I love
The way I care the way I share the way I choose to live without fear
I hope someday to find someone who lives the dream I’m dreaming of
Then we could make that dream come true
I wonder if that someone could be you?

I hope someday to find someone who understands the way I feel
The way I live the way I give our survival depends on it
What we need to do is choose to do it... to make it real
Then we could all truly live in peace
And enjoy The full power of our lives release

Don’t give into fear
Fear only leads to confusion and hate
Logic disappears
That leaves you in a dangerous state
Just empower your love
The awareness that can bring
Will let you understand
You are part of every thing

you can do good, you can do harm, it is a simple choice
a choice that you make everyday with your hands and your voice
You can shirk responsibility, pretend you have no control
And depend on others outside of yourself
to somehow protect your body and soul

You can’t believe anything you want to believe
When deny everything that is true
But in the end whether you see it or not
It has all been up to you
Everything you do
is up to you.

I hope someday to find someone who understands how I love
The way I share the way I care the way I won’t give into fear
Together we could Live a life that everyone dreams of

And it wouldn’t come out of the blue
It would simply be doing what’s true.

Love is stronger than fear
Love feels better than fear
Love is why we are here
We can all be aware
of how good it feels to care
All we have to do is share.
And choose love over fear.

Maybe Not

The question was was this brilliant?

who's gonna love me when I'm old and gray
when I not too far off from my dying day
who's gonna be there in the final years
will I be alone with my laughter and tears?

who's gonna carry my coffin to the burning fire?
who's gonna cremate me when I expire?
and in those tough times when the end is near
who's gonna be the one who'll still be there?

all I ever wanted in this life was love
to love and be loved is what I always dream of
giving everything away gave my my sweetest joy
so why am I ending up such a lonely boy?

and in the final years I want to know
who's gonna be there to just be there, you know?
(who's gonna be there just to be there, yo?)

don't give up hope on finding love someday
that's what I hear a voice inside me say
but there's a sad child wondering if I
will be alone the rest of this life and why
will I be alone when I finally die?

who's gonna love me when I'm down and out
when there's no more spunk left in my sprout
when gravity pulls harder than I can grow
who's gonna be there when it's time to go

and in the final years I want to know
who's gonna be there to help me let go?

who's gonna be there to sing harmony?
who's gonna be there to make history?
who's gonna be there to share love with me?
I don't want my last feeling to be lonely

who's gonna be there when I'm no longer strong
who's gonna be there to finish this song
who's gonna be there...

and in the final years I really want to know
who's gonna be there to share
who's gonna be there to care
who's gonna be there to enjoy the show
in the final years I really want to know
who's gonna be there...

All By Myself (Revisited)

There was a timeless time
I never needed anyone
I wasn't living on the run
what have I become

in case it matters to you
I still believe that life is fun
and I will not carry a gun
I believe in love
(it's all I've got)

love love love


Then came a time time time
I was so lost behind fear
if you can find a path that's clear
you might see me disappear
no one comes near

lost lost lost



I don't know why
nobody told me
they bought and sold me
with no way out

but my love remained
the dream was reframed
after the fall

and moodswings come on
lightning and thunder
there is still wonder
after all

there are places I remember
from the world outside head
babbling offered me a literary escape

I kept my promise
to love for ever
come whatever
heat or chill

and I always will
still

Am I Worth Knowing?

Am I worth knowing?
once upon a time
I was adored
that doesn't happen anymore

Am I worth loving?
once upon a time
I was embraced
that sort of thing has been replaced

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core

there was a time when I was treasured as a friend
when someone wanted to be close to me all the time
there was a time people said there'd be no end
to the love we shared that made life so sublime

now after years of rejection I am wondering
am I worth knowing?
no one seems to want to sing the song I sing
am I worth knowing?

it's a sad song today
a lonely song today
creativity wanes
I'm drowning in pains

so lonely, so sad
did I do something bad
what happened to
all the friends I had

what happened to love
and people who cared
they drifted away
now nobody's here

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core

now after years of reflection I am wondering
am I worth knowing?
no one seems to want to sing the song I sing
am I worth knowing?

Am I worth knowing?
once upon a time
I was adored
that doesn't happen anymore

Am I worth loving?
once upon a time
I was embraced
that sort of thing has been replaced

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core

Who Cares!

Some times it is such a sad lament moaning in the wilderness of emptiness and loneliness
some times it is a joyous declaration of independence without need for anyone or anything
do you understand what I mean when I say who cares?
some times a question with desperate tears
some times a revelation of freedom - who cares

who cares if anyone knows me
who cares if anyone cares
who cares if no one ever shows me
who cares, who cares

who cares if anyone feels me
who cares if anyone shares
who cares if no one ever loves me
who cares, who cares

once you are aware
this life is just a moment
blink your eyes and it's gone
almost everyone who ever lived
is forgotten in this moment
you can let go of need and carry on

just enjoy what you are doing
the friendly laughter
let go of worries
about the ever after
the food you're chewing
the sights you're seeing
and all you are feeling
and all you are being
in this very moment
you can be aware
this is all there is
right now, right here

so who cares if anyone knows
who cares if anyone cares
who cares if no one ever shows
who cares, who cares

who cares if anyone feels
who cares if anyone shares
who cares if no one ever loves
who cares, who cares
who cares

just enjoy what you are doing
just enjoy the one you're with
just enjoy yourself if you're alone
just being here is a gift
just embrace this moment
just feel everything
it could all be gone in a moment
so enjoy this moment
make the most of this moment
be alive in this moment
be here, aware
right now, right here

who cares if anyone knows
who cares if anyone cares
who cares if no one ever shows
who cares, who cares

who cares if anyone feels
who cares if anyone shares
who cares if no one ever loves
who cares, who cares
who cares

Is Anybody Out There?

Night after night I sit here writing the story of my life
all the details, cheers and fails, that I want to share with a wife
longing for love is aching above anything else can do
can you tell me this song does not relate to you
tell me it's not true

is anybody out there?
does anybody feel the way I feel?
is it my imagination?
this hunger for love seems so real

is anybody out there?
are you really listening to this song?
if this life is so full of love
not sharing it must be wrong

it feels so wrong
to be alone every night when I start to dream
it feels so right
when someone is holding me close

it feels so good
to know somebody is there for me
so why am I sitting here writing this song
when what I want to do most

is fall in love
who wants to fall in love?

oh, is anybody out there?
does anybody feel this way tonight
can anybody feel me?
can you relate to these words I write

does anybody hear me?
I am singing this song to you
is anybody out there?
all I want to do

is fall in love
who wants to fall in love?
just fall in love

is anybody out there?...

I Want More Tonight

I want more tonight
I want war tonight
I want peace tonight
I want release tonight

But wanting doesn't get you what you want
so we settle for something else
drink or drugs or food or sex or money or power
anything but the self

I want more love
I want more truth
I want more fun
I want more youth
I want more trust
I want more sharing
I want more warmth
I want more caring

But wanting doesn't get you what you want
so we settle for something else
drink or drugs or food or sex or money or power
anything but the self

who cares
always looking on the outside
who cares
must start on the inside
who cares
may be the words most often cried
who cares
it's a roller coaster ride

wanting is an ache
caring is a break
most people just fake it
some people just take it
every moment living
I am always giving
wanting someone giving
every moment living

But wanting doesn't get you what you want
so we settle for something else
drink or drugs or food or sex or money or power
anything but the self

Pass it over here I'll take some more
If this is all we are living for
It is easier than sharing our hearts
This is where it ends... or starts

I want more love
I want more truth
I want more fun
I want more youth
I want more trust
I want more sharing
I want more warmth
I want more caring
