The Simple Things…(Like Love)
Verse1
I’m just an ordinary guy
Who likes the simple things
Not what money can buy
But things that sets me free
Verse2
If you should ever ask me
What is my greatest wish
I’ll say the simplest things
That makes me happy
Chorus
Like love, like time
Like you loving me
Just some of the things
That makes me happy
Bridge
I’m from a humble beginning
I believe life is for living
And there’s more happiness
In giving than in receiving
Verse3
I try to see the beauty
In nature’s kindness
I like to watch the stars
Over driving fancy cars
Chorus
Like love like time
Like you, loving me
Just some of the things
That makes me happy
(Optional)
If you should ever ask me
What is my greatest wish
I’ll say the simplest things
That makes me happy
Chorus
Like love, like time
Like you loving me
Just some of the things
That makes me happy

Searching...
Lying in the field
Of my mind
Trying to unreel
All the times
We spent dreaming
Under the stars…
Did we ever fail to see
The stalk reality
Lying in the bed-room
Of my mind
Trying to find
Searching endlessly
To find the answers
Deep inside of me
Why, why oh why
When you said goodbye
I didn’t even cry
Why, why oh why
When you said goodbye
I didn’t even cry
Did we ever fail to see
The stalk reality
Making wishes on falling stars
Waking thinking where we are
Living in a world of our own
Acted so young and so grown
Did we ever fail to see
The stalk reality
With the world passing by
and the sun blind our eyes
a fairytale with no ending
making up the story as we go
Did we ever fail to see
The stalk reality
Why, why oh why
When you said goodbye
I didn’t even cry
Why, why oh why
When you said goodbye
I didn’t even cry
No one, nowhere
Would ever believe
That I’ll be standing
Here when you leave
Maybe I’m dreaming
Maybe it’s my fears
Could it be a false
sense of security
or maybe
…
We failed to see
The stalk reality

Starlight
I’ve run of words to say…(somehow)
I don’t know what to do…(anymore)
I hope the stars can show me (how)
To make things right tonight…
If you’re looking for me…(somewhere)
I’ll be on the other side… (oh yeah…)
Trying to find the words…(to say)
The words that’ll bring her joy
Chorus X2
Dear Starlight…
Show me how tonight
No need to be so far
Please grant me a wish for her
Tonight…Starlight
I wish you’d make her understand
That I’m only just a man
With all good in-tentions
I’ll love her when she’s wrong
With all that was said and done
I know I can’t take it back (no)
If I could you know I would…
I’d leave the words unspoken
Chorus X2
Dear Starlight…
Show me how tonight
No need to be so far
Please grant me a wish for her
Tonight… Starlight
I know you can help me (Starlight)
Get me through this iron curtain
Take me home tonight…
Make her heart unbroken
I am almost certain… Starlight
She’ll want to make it right
Take me to the other side
Bring back laughter in her eyes
Chorus
Dear Starlight…Starlight…
Please show me how tonight
No need to be so far
Grant me a wish for her
Tonight…
Dear Starlight!...

Ask Mars
I don’t know the answers
To the questions you ask
I can only make a wish
That I can give you everything
But how do I ever know
Exactly want you need
It’s hard to please you
Yet it's me who's complicated...
Chorus
Maybe you should ask Mars
The place where I'm from
Maybe you should ask Mars
To make you understand
Why I won't let emotions show
Why I’m afraid to let you know
exactly how I feel...inside
I just don’t know the answers
Chorus
Maybe you should ask Mars
The place where I'm from
Maybe you should ask Mars
To make you understand
Bridge
I’m biting more than I can chew
Looking for answers just like you
Every time I try, I get tongue tied
To say how much I love... you...
Chorus
Maybe you should ask Mars
The place where I'm from
Maybe you should ask Mars
To make you understand
End …………………

Take Me In
Traveling down a country road
Looking for my next abode
Trying to find a little town
To lay my tired head down
Though my heart always know
The right road for me to go
I hope you can feel my pain
Give me a chance and let me in
Chorus
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in…
Friendly folks saying howdy do
To this stranger passing through
Boys and girls come out to see
A lost soul looking for serenity
I’m running from a ticking time bomb
It’s getting much too hard to carry on
I’ve got to get rid of this heavy load …
I’m running away from the inside man
Chorus X2
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in; take me, save me
Somebody take me in…

Friday 2 September 2011
It's Over
Trying to melt away the fire
That burns inside like dry ice
Hiding tears from my eyes
That swells up like the river
I'm wishing the night away
Hoping that I’ll be alright
Reaching for ice and gin
To help me dance and sing
Chorus
It’s over …a long time ago
When you left me standing
It’s over…a long time ago
When you kept me waiting
It’s over…long ago…
I tell myself to stop dreaming
And wake up to the sunshine
Take a deep breath in and out
And feel the wind on my skin
Chorus
It’s over …a long time ago
When you left me standing
It’s over…a long time ago
When you kept me waiting
It’s over…long ago…
Should it hurt this much she’s gone
Should I wait for her to come home
Though I feel something deep inside
That my heart must not carry on…
Chorus
It’s over …a long time ago
When you left me standing
It’s over…a long time ago
When you kept me waiting
It’s over…long ago…
End …………………
