Beneath it’s snowy mantle cold and clean, The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green. The snowbird sings the song he always sings, And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring. When I was young my heart was young then, too. And anything that it would tell me, that’s the thing that I would do. But now I feel such emptiness within, For the thing that I want most in life’s the thing that I can’t win. Spread your tiny wings and fly away, And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day. The one I love forever is untrue, And if I could you know that [...]

I rolled out this morning Kids had the mornin’ news show on Bryant Gumbel was talkin’ ’bout the fighting in Lebanon Some senator was squawkin’ ’bout the bad economy It’s gonna get worse you see, we need a change in policy There’s a local paper rolled up in a rubber band One more sad story’s one more than I can stand Just once how I’d like to see the headline say “Not much to print today, can’t find nothin’ bad to say”, because Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD’ed, nobody burned a single buildin’ down Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little [...]

I’ll always remember the song they were playin’, The first time we danced and I knew, As we swayed to the music and held to each other, I fell in love with you. Could I have this dance for the rest of my life? Would you be my partner every night? When we’re together, it feels so right. Could I have this dance for the rest of my life? I’ll always remember that magic moment, When I held you close to me. ‘Cause we moved together, I knew forever, You’re all I’ll ever need Could I have this dance for the rest of my life? Would you be my partner every night? When we’re together, it feels so right. Could [...]
