Not Coming Back

I'm just a little disappointed by the way you feel

You say its nothing and no big deal

But I disagree and need to react

As to why your leaving and not coming back


Yes we tended to ignore those carefree times

When we were guilty of cheating crimes

Those agree to disagree moments and crocodile tears

Those jealous tantrums over many years


I thought we were honest and would never lie

But now it seems your saying goodbye

Acting as if its natural, Not much different to natures call


You could have said if having second thoughts

Of how an open relationship has its faults

By now we could have gotten over it

But now it seems its festered bit by bit


"Please don't go" stay and sort this out

It used to be swings and roundabouts

We decided together and set limits

To stay together forever as free spirits 


Emotions run high some of the time

But you gotta know when to draw the line

Love is one thing and surely defined

By our hearts and never our mixed up minds


So don't leave me baby, go out and return

I promise you my lesson is learned

One thing for sure that would tare me apart

Is you leaving me and breaking my heart


You could have said if having second thoughts

Of how an open relationship has its faults

By now we could have gotten over it

But now it seems its festered bit by bit


I'm just a little disappointed by the way you feel

You say its nothing and no big deal

But I disagree and need to react

As to why your leaving and not coming back


Not coming back no no not coming back

It don't sit right and that's a fact

Don't leave me honey "Stay with me"

I love you babe "Don't wanna be free


Plain Jane (The Girl of My Dream)

Waiting on a Bus in the freezing cold

Been standing here so long, feels like I'm getting old

I wish I had a reason to leave the queue

Glad I didn't as just seen you


Your just like the girl I saw in my dream

The one that was tempting "you know what I mean"

I never realized that dreams came true

Rubbing my eyes I guess they really do


Should I stand and wait my turn in the queue

Or should I move to try and talk to you

My predicament leaves me with no choice

When I heard your soft and sexy voice


You were talking with a guy "I had to know why"

So I moved a little closer to catch your eye

I heard you say that you liked to dance

I could not believe it " This could be my chance" 


We can dance all night Jive and swing

Rock n Roll is really my favourite thing


But how can I be forward "It would be so rude"

Should I wait on the bus and be glad I queued

I began to think " Had my luck run out"

When all of a sudden I heard the guy shout


See ya later !"Nice to see you again"

And maybe catch up but don't know when

My heart all of a sudden had slowed down

Knowing that she was single and new to the town


I heard you say that you liked to dance

I could not believe it " This could be my chance" 

We can dance all night Jive and swing

Rock n Roll is really my favorite thing



The Bus pulled up and I jumped the Queue

Saying hey can I come sit with You

She gave me that smile "You know the one from my dream

My face was a picture " I hoped she were keen


I paid her fare and continued to stare

Looking at this beauty with the long black hair

I said Forgive me so what is your name?

She said to me "oh its just plain Jane"


You aint plain I can tell you right now

When I saw you at the stop "I thought Wow"

Would You go to the local hop with me

Oh I don't know" We'll just have to see"


I heard you say that you liked to dance

Well so do I " This could be our chance" 

We can dance all night Jive and swing

Rock n Roll is really my favorite thing


Come on Jane Just say yes "Its Friday night I'll dress to impress

Well if you pick me up at 7 then maybe I guess

I betcha look cute in a satin dress

Just say yes yes yes yes yes


Your parents can look me up and down

It don't mean nothin as your we're new in town

Well see you Friday as this is my stop

We will have a ball at the Lindy Hop


We can dance all night Jive and swing

Rock n Roll is really my favorite thing

Jive with me "Jane take that chance"

Take me to heaven C'mon lets dance


She said its gonna be great so its 7 at mine

Promise me we'll have a good time

We can be together the perfect team

Just be there Jane the girl of my Dream


Girl of my dream don't break my heart

Promise me we'll never part

Jive with Me Jane take this chance

Take me to Heaven come on lets dance


Oh yeah oh yeah come on lets dance

Lets hold hands kiss n romance

Promise me we'll never part

Girl of my dream don't break my heart

Mr Cool

 I don't know what you want from me

And doubt I ever will

I don't know what your looking for

Are you getting a cheap thrill


Seeing if you can test my nerve while digging underground

Or just waiting on that moment when my limits can be found


I wasn't born with a silver spoon hanging from my mouth

Don't need a compass to point me north or south

I could spell, reed, and write before the age of six

I can find fresh water with willow dowsing sticks


You'll have to get up early before the sun can rise

Try singing with the birds to pull wool over my eyes

You wont get the better of me as I am Mister Cool

I can see you coming and aint nobody's fool


You wont get the better of me by playing silly games

You wont fit me up, I wont take the blame

You aint getting the better of me, Not one little bit

So please submit, give in and just quit

Yeah you aint getting the better of me, Not one little bit


Don't waste your time while shouting out those evil lies

I have people watching you " your so called friends are spies

They tell me everything, every hate speech you announce

Feel the weight of my wrath every pound and every ounce


The rock of truth will sit upon your tales and your lies

The boulder of guilt will forever blind your eyes

Take just a minute to ask yourself one thing

Why appear like a butterfly? but like a wasp you wanna sting


You wont get the better of me by playing silly games

You wont fit me up, I wont take the blame

You aint getting the better of me, Not one little bit

So please submit, give in and just quit

Yeah you aint getting the better of me, Not one little bit


Yeah I can see you coming and aint nobody's fool

You wont get the better of me as I am Mister Cool


I don't know what you want from me

And doubt I ever will

I don't know what your looking for

Exhausted by your lies and damnation overkill


Yeah I can see you coming and aint nobody's fool

You wont get the better of me as I am Mister Cool

Checkmate Blues

Have you abandoned the game

I'm just asking, It seems such a shame

Raising the white flag for you and your king

Throwing the towel into the checkerboard ring


Are you a pawn disguised as a clown

Is that a grimace or maybe a frown

There is only one way to ever beat me

But that wont be today no no "Believe Me"


Take your time their is no great rush

I'm patient amid the silence hush hush

I'll sit here quietly and wait my turn

The flame of my candle still lovingly burns


I'll light another with a flickering flame

While you decide the next move in your game

Moving a bishop a rook or your knight

Extinguish those nerves or fade like the light?


Wake me if I should fall asleep 

Nudge me my turn while counting sheep 

Keep me posted, if I'm under attack

I cannot afford to lose the shirt off my back


Wow you moved and now have me in check

I feel like a fool a physical wreck

Oh dear oh dear so what happens now

Your  check mate plan I cannot allow


Gonna take my time as in no great rush

I will be patient and silent hush hush

I'll sit here and wait, to ponder my turn

The flame of my candle still lovingly burns



Queen takes knight and traps my rook

In your haste my Queen overlooked

You are now trapped as I move away

Your King still holding my bishop at bay


Nowhere to go your blunder will cost

Check mate of your king " Your game is now lost"

The position of pawn and my brave knight

No where to move black square or white


Take your time as in no great rush

I will be patient and silent hush hush

I'll sit here and wait to figure my turn

The flame of my candle still lovingly burns


Are you raising the white flag on behalf of your King

Surrendering again?  I'm just asking

Will you give in to my knowledge and plan

Catch me out and win a game if you can


Have you abandoned the battle and game

I'm just asking, It seems such a shame

Are you raising the white flag on behalf of your king

Throwing the towel into the checker board ring


Check mate check mate its never to late

Pass me the trophy as I seal your fate

Check mate check mate its never to late

Pass me the trophy as I seal your fate


Take your time as in no great rush

I will be patient and silent hush hush

I'll sit here and wait to figure my turn

The flame of my candle still lovingly burns

Cobbald Path Blues

 Walking cobbled paths alone in my head

For many years I have feared all the dread
Will I have a choice? what's out there for me?
Or sail for miles on a rough stormy sea.

Tired days have been endless and nights cold and long 
While all around me a wicked echo and song 
A swirling heavy darkness ahead in my sight
Blurring my vision from brightness and light .

Wherever journeys take my hopeful heart
How ever this power tears life apart
It always finds me left alone in the dark
The wicked will always attack like a shark

This isn’t the first time I’ve stood on these paths
Where my footprints look heavier than they did in the past
I’ll travel the distance, gain belief in myself
Push onward and upward, finding my heart on the history shelf

Which path will I choose from the ones up ahead
When every direction is darkness and dread
I may take the wild one that angels have fled
Every signpost repeating words I have said

Wherever journeys take my hopeful heart
How ever this power tears life apart
It always finds me left alone in the dark
The wicked will always attack like a shark


I’m lost once again I look back where I’ve been
Only to find that I’m still in a dream
The sun hits my eyes, am I nearing the end
Here in the light ,on paths that won’t bend

Then the alarm clock is ringing
Dreams no longer displayed
A colorful vision has started to fade
I’m staring up at the ceiling so white
While thinking out loud reality bites

Wherever journeys take my hopeful heart
How ever this power tears life apart
It always finds me left alone in the dark
The wicked will always attack like a shark


Back to reality , the illusion still played
Feeling the weight of the choice never made
Here in the world, the same people, same face
My mind has been frozen ,now knowing my place

These times that I spend alone in my head
The darkness that covers me with all of its dread
I thought waking up would make things more clear
But daylight won’t wash away the darkness and fear


Wherever journeys take my hopeful heart
How ever this power tears life apart
It always finds me left alone in the dark
The wicked will always attack like a shark

I spin in circles in darkness and light
I wonder if ever I’ll win this long fight
Loosing my grip and chasing my ghost
I just hope I keep the people I love the most.

Yeah while Loosing my grip and chasing my ghost
I just hope I keep the people I love the most.

War of the Gods

 Dark shadows descended from way up high

Bringing tornado's through velvet black sky
The guardians above prepared for the fight
They filled the sky with electric blue light

The mountains defying a storm in a cage
Battling the sea with its strongest of rage
The storm came so suddenly all over our land
The guardian Angels were now in command

People ran to their homes to batten down and secure
The storm now rising while striking the pure
Up in the heavens the Gods now arise
Sending Angels to earth hearing sorrowful cry’s

You could hear all the Angels as they hit the ground
No danger No alarm they fell all around
It was almost as if the heavens turned black
The Guardians were now under attack

The darkness that followed formed like a shroud
Tormenting thunder claps "Cracking so loud"
The power they held sent a message to all
Angels are fighting "They herald our call"

People were running in fear from the fight
The eyes of the Angels were giving them light
Gathering together united they prayed
Finding courage and strength no longer afraid

You could hear all the Angels as they hit the ground
No danger No alarm they fell all around
"It was almost as if the heavens turned black"
The Guardians were now under attack

The darkness believed their power was strong
Demanding the thrones the gods sat upon
They fought for the realms, the kingdoms above
Showing no mercy for the Angels of love

Laughed while destroying then swallowed the sun
Unaware that the battle was over and done
Clutching to shadows dissolving in fire
Ending the darkness and evil desire.

You could hear all the Angels as they hit the ground
No danger No alarm they fell all around
It was almost as if the heavens fought back
The Guardians no longer under attack

Angels ascended back to their kingdom
Earth hummed a tune rejoicing the freedom
The lightning and storm once a battle cry
Left a canvas of light and a clear blue sky
