Jacqueline( The Pages within)




 Where are You Going My Jacqueline?

Are you bound to the book and the pages within

Where have you been My Jacqueline? I think I saw you at the county fair.

 Browsing those Books while brushing your hair.

 Cinders is seeking her long lost shoe, and your unaware That I'm Missing You



Where do you go Jacqueline . When does the fantasy really begin

You seek adventure in your Head. Dreaming of Witches upon your Bed

Your soft brown hair Those eyes so Blue An English Rose scented and true

Where have you been Jacqueline? out with Jules Verne in his Time Machine


You disappear into a world unknown. Some wild place in the twilight zone


Time travel takes you away, to an alien planet on a perfect day

Feed Me Your love before Dawn. embrace  my Heart and Keep me warm


Turn another page wipe away those tears. collect your thoughts and deal with your fears.


Is it true lust or is it sin Where are you now My Jacqueline


A classic Film a long lost Scene, what are you watching Jacqueline



Include me in a chapter you wrote, wrap me in the feather of your Mystic Coat


We can be together on a cosmic plain just take me with you Jacqueline


Where are You Going Now Jacqueline Include me this time amid the pages within.

Hello again My Jacqueline. Enjoy another Book and the magic within.

Seasons of Love


January Is long  The new year so cold


No light ahead on a Rocky Mountain Road


February blinds us  The sun so Low


Frosty Mornings playing out in the snow


March winds blow but gather No moss


The festival over so counting the cost


Your looking forward to Midsummers Day


As April she dances herself into May


The Maypole The ribbon The sun coming thru.


Green Fields of June,  fresh morning Dew


These are the Seasons we cherish and love


sent from the sky The heavens above.

 
Enjoy every one  Hot, Cold or Mild


From leaving the womb thru the eyes of a child



July is Warm The sky so Blue


The coast lights shining the moonlit view


Wishing and hoping it stays  like this


A warm embrace and a Good night Kiss


A Front Porch swing The still of the night

A cold iced tea while  dancing to Dwight,


Music n Memories will keep us together


Whatever the season whatever the weather



Playing Country Love songs on Acoustic Guitar.


Singing Karaoke in your favorite Bar.


August she reigns and Autumn will call.


September The Leaves turn gold and fall.


October brings Rain, November the same


December Brings Peace but with it the pain


These are the Seasons we cherish and love


every one sent from The heavens above. 


Enjoy every one whether  Hot, Cold or Mild


From leaving the womb thru the eyes of a child.



These are the seasons When we run wild
when playing outside with the eyes of a child.



Enjoy every one whether  Hot, Cold or Mild


From leaving the womb thru the eyes of a child.



These are the seasons When we run wild
when playing outside with the eyes of a child.

Jane and Jo Backing Track g major g ionian acoustic


 You don't want to be somebodies Heartache

You don't want to be somebodies Queen



All you want is a Good Nights Sleep with the chance of a beautiful Dream
You don't want to talk over old times
You don't want to buy something new

You just wanna stand at the foot of the stairs to see Janie staring back at you

You don't need to share another Heartache
You don't want to seem to be unkind You would just like to share a memory from the front of your precious mind.

You never meant to cause me Heartbreak
You didn't take my Heart in vain

I sense you beside Me on long walks home
Together forever never alone
I know your beside me on the Midnight Train, You are my twin, your my sister Jane

I don't want to be somebodies Heartache   I don't want to be somebodies Queen                                        All I wish for is to meet you again, The other half of my favorite team

                                                    Call to Joanne Shout out to Joe
Your the Angel with the after glow                                                                                                                                                                    Call to Joanne Shout out to Joe
Leave a stardust trail where ever You go

The brightest star in a deep dark night, A shining Beacon our ray of light yeah

You don't want to be somebodies Heartache

But You maybe My favorite Queen

You don't wish to climb or reach that summit

But somewhere safer in between

You don't wanna be somebodies Heartache

You don't want to be somebodies Queen
All you want is a good nights sleep and the chance of a beautiful Dream.

Way past Your Bedtime. slow pop C major 66bpm


 Its long past your Bed time and your still awake






You Blown out the candles on your Birthday Cake




Hard to believe  you got so old, sleeping under the stars, Staying out in the cold





Still sat  on the patio which faces the bay




We know where to find you on a summers day. 





You love to consume a cold beer or two, Walking the downs enjoying the view.





Many a year have passed you by. You learned to love and laughed till you cry






Your Kids have grown and long left home, The locals think that your all alone

But you have companions 3 four legged Friends

A Lurcher A Lab An Alsatian 




They keep you fit and young at heart, Pulling your arms out on the way to the park.




You set them free and off they run like sprinters after the starting gun



You whistle them back when your ready after heeding your call they come back steady



Life is for living and you know it for sure The welcome you get when the key meets the door



Since You retired not bothered with time and in no hurry to hear The Bells chime




Relaxed in mind body and soul, You bring in the scuttle filled with coal




A nap or snooze may be on the cards, A Game of Chess or maybe charades




Back down the lane Late afternoon While the Dogs are waiting You Whistle a tune




They hear your Heart beat From a Mile away, Up at the Window Looking over The Bay




Ready to run once more before dark. There favorite Place The local park




These days  are our best days these days are pure fun, These days together forever as one.


Old times Good Times Together we run These Days Together Forever as One.


Old Times Good Times together as one Old times Good Times Forever we'll run.

Remember Those Days


 Late night bus, the wheels go round,

City lights flashing, there's solace to be found,
Traveling home where the heart feels light,
Keep me warm, keep me safe tonight.
Could be the same for each one of us,
Searching for comfort, in hope we trust.

[Chorus]
Better to be safe than sorry, my friend,
Keep to the straights, don’t handle those bends.
Whatever happens from now on,
Won't be so good, but it won’t last long.
Yeah, all the best days are sitting in your past,
Riding to win but now coming in last.

[Verse 2]
Stars in the sky, they twinkle and shine,
Thoughts of a warm summer, your hand in mine.
A welcome hug, oh, and a goodnight kiss,
Those sweet moments, how could I miss?
Memories of you and I won't fade,
Drinking cool beer with sweet lemonade.

[Chorus]
Better to be safe than sorry, my friend,
Keep to the straights, don’t handle those bends.
Whatever happens from now on,
Won't be so good, but it won’t last long.
Yeah, all the best days are sitting in your past,
Riding to win but now coming in last.

[Bridge]
Pebble beach, or golden sand,
Walking the promenade, holding your hand.
Candy floss smiles, memories so bright,
That pretty ribbon, catching the light.
No luck again down at the penny arcade,
Your lovely parasol gives us some shade.

[Verse 3]
Remember the days of fun on the pier,
Comedians making us laugh, oh dear!
But I’ve just been told that this is my stop,
Gotta make my bed outside by the shop.
Been homeless now, ten years or more,
With pockets empty, I’m part of the poor.

[Chorus]
Better to be safe than sorry, my friend,
Keep to the straights, don’t handle those bends.
Whatever happens from now on,
Won't be so good, but it won’t last long.
Yeah, all the best days are sitting in your past,
Riding to win but now coming in last.

[Outro]
I'll wait it out, endure my last days,
Looking for a break in this old maze.
Tonight I’ll dream of a brighter place,
Keeping warm on the bus, I’ll find my grace.
Holding on tight to those memories sweet,
In this soulful journey, life can't be beat.

You have a Mountain to climb


 Inspired By You so it must be true
Its been a while since I felt so blue

 Harsh early days can shape our ways

Maybe this is just a phase

Being used and abused

 can leave us confused

 In the darkest of nights

 we can still see lights.

One more memory from the cupboard of fear 

We laugh it off and wipe away a tear

Comedy is king It erases that thing

 and a smile last long into the night

Lets hear one more Joke roll a smoke 

Would you like another bite?


 Wake up! You have a Mountain to climb
Sleep is priceless Our favorite time

 Wake up! You have a Mountain to climb

Yeah Sleep is priceless Our favorite time



You got your Hair pulled while bawled at for sure

 Walking on tip toes while closing that door 

Sit down shut up and face the wall!

 Wait for your destiny your curtain call


Its cool to be a clown and I need to laugh

 since Mother tried drowning Me in a cold bath. 

We got this far without crying to sleep

 A bed time story or little Bo-Peep


Running away the only answer 

Drink yourself silly with a Ballet Dancer

Create your own Hero while looking real cool

 Bang your own drum while acting the fool


I prefer Dogs to people as well

 They love me and hug me "I guess you can tell"

Not every song will capture or rhyme

So Wake up! you have a Mountain to climb


It takes a while to realize

 We are special too in others eyes

So believe in your inner most desires

 Make us laugh keep stoking those fires.


We are gonna miss you now your not around

 Take care of Buster while painting the town

I hope we meet on the other side

 but till then I'll stay on this ride.


Up then down, Fast then slow

 veering right and on with the show

We Will remember the Days when you were Queen

 The Funniest Drag that I ever seen.


Oh Lilly so savage a Bombsite for sure 

Your POG cast a hoot and missing the Tour


We know your out there now somewhere

Was that a curse we heard in the evening air?

"I cant stop laughing or crying I swear."


We all miss you while standing in line

 to shake the hand of Mister Canine

"No one knows why or reason You went"

Just remain in our Hearts in The Garden of Kent


Time is a Healer so wasting no time

 Waking up I have a Mountain to climb

Yeah waking up I have a Mountain to climb


Can you hear that shouting? something about a Mountain!

Can you hear that shouting? something about a Mountain!

Waking up I have a Mountain to climb

Yeah waking up I have a Mountain to climb

Does it Matter

60s classic ballad c major jam.

Dressing down in My Sunday Best

Facing South But Heading out West

Been Caught Offside Swam against the tide

 Really didn't matter being taken for a ride


Acting the fool on Saturday Night

Trying on black then deciding on white. 


Eating indoors, Going out for a bite. 

Sailing against the wind, Flying a kite


Did it matter Did it Shatter Did the Glass Break?

What the Hell for Heavens Sake 

Yeah What the Hell for Heavens Sake.

Hanging around Didn't hesitate

 Got home early after going out late 


Wasted My time on a life of crime 

Lost a few stone then found a Dime


Decisions Decisions Don't have a clue 

Front Runner Baby Back of the Queue

 Going in while their Chucking Out 

Decisions Decisions Swings and Roundabouts


Did it Matter Did it Shatter Did the Glass Break?

What the Hell for Heavens Sake

 Yeah What the Hell for Heavens Sake


Running on empty far too long

A line just taken from a favorite song

One day flush then needing a loan

Pick up the pieces Put down the phone


Cant think out loud for the life of me, 

Too noisy in here so set me free

 Stuck in neutral while in top gear

An uphill climb Downward I fear


Did it matter, Did it shatter? Did the glass break, 

What the Hell for heavens sake 


I started out on a one way track. 

No destination  no going back

Once I was History Soon I'll be dead

Once I was Green but often saw red


"Ignored the Warnings whispered to me,"

 Sang from the Heart but in the Wrong Key


Did it Matter? Did It Shatter? Did The Glass Break, What the hell for heavens sake

Does it matter Will it Shatter Will our Hearts Break?

 What The Hell for Heavens Sake. 


Does it matter Will it Shatter Will our Hearts Break?

 What The Hell for Heavens Sake 

What will we do now? What will we do now?

Give in to reality  then  show Me how

Sunday Best Sunday Best

Looking pretty good real cool I guess

Sunday Best Sunday Best

Looking pretty good real cool I guess

Shoulda Wudda Coulda





Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n Roll star

Shudda wudda cudda but I never got far





 As sure as Tick follows Tok I was born to rock.





As sure as Night follows day. I was born to play;





Missed my vocation Singing to the Nation.

Should have been a Real Rocking Celebration.



But oh no I didn't make the show

Much too Busy to play that Rock n Roll.




Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda 
Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n Roll star




Shudda wudda cudda but you never got far





I Didn't really catch the Eye



Fame just passed me by


Shudda wudda cudda  Shudda wudda cudda




Shudda wudda cudda been a Rockin roll Queen



Shudda wudda cudda  I know what you mean



Shudda wudda cudda  It was just a dream




I took a wrong turn and crashed that Mean Machine







I was sounding good  practicing alone.

 Busting my moves with a beat up microphone



Created a band with some old friends

 doing covers from way back when



And then we

Shoulda Woulda Coulda been Rock n Roll Stars



 We were just Dreamers propping up the Bars


Spent all night playing the Blues
Catching up with more bad news when 
I SHOULDA  WUDDA COULDA 

 I SHOULDA  WUDDA COULDA 
I SHOULDA  WUDDA COULDA 
I SHOULDA  WUDDA COULDA 


Shudda wudda cudda been a Rock n roll star




Shudda wudda cudda but I never got far


 As sure as Tick follows Tok I was born to rock.


As sure as Night follows day, I was born to play;


Missed my vocation Singing to the Nation.

 Should have been a Real Rocking Celebration.


But oh no I didn't make the show,

Much too Busy to play that Rock n Roll.



Didn't make the show, didn't make the show
Much to busy to play that rock and roll
Rock And Roll Wooooooo  Rock n Roll 
Wooooooo Rock n Roll Wooooooohoooo Rock n Roll Rock n roll rock n roll

Horses For Courses

Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind

 My thoughts are running thru my mind

People think that I'm unkind and wasting energy gambling online.

But let them say what they think while treating me like a missing link, I wont be part of a chain and know that I'm not going Insane.

 
Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind



I believe in myself while leaning on this shelf 

Writing out my Betting Slip. just one more Beer and one more Tip

Waiting for my Luck to turn, Dreaming of  tomorrow. knowing that I will earn or beg steel and Borrow

Another Photo finish. A pounding in my heart. Cant we raise the flag again Go back to the start

Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind



Lady Luck is playing Hide n Seek. while I search for that winning streak, I bet my wages on a Bay Maybe I should call it a day.

No money in my Purse. Things are getting Worse

I made a promise to myself while Leaning on this goddam shelf

Writing out My Yankee Bet. This is it No more debt.

Got a feeling that feels good.  My fingers crossed Come On Touch wood.

Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind



Cant believe he just pulled up and why o why Its just my Luck

Bad aint the word Going Insane Cant believe I lost Again

Falling at the last when eight lengths Clear

Tear up the slip wipe away a tear

Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind


Get back to work Get back to life, How will I explain it to the wife

No money for Rent and I'm still bent on Making things right no sleep tonight

Bad thoughts are running thru my Mind  Family think that I'm unkind wasting energy  on

I lost My Money

I Lost My Honey

Horses for courses on my mind

My bet of the day is way behind
