Wanna Love You

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

Baby when will you be free for me.

I find It's so very hard to breath

I know that if you we're by my side

I'd love each and every night

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

Baby give your love to me

I know your love will set me free

So take my hand and walk this way

I'll love you each and every day

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

Baby my love is on fire

Flaming hearts passion filled desire

Your touch your kiss your warm caress 

Without out your love I'm in distress

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

I see you, I hear you, I wanna touch you I wanna love you

White Lightning

white lightening cracks across my skin

A little red dot where the needles been

A  line is drawn for one last dance

The door a jar and I see your glance 

And there it is the pain

I'll have to lie to you again

I try to speak,  you just walk away

The lie will have to wait today

White lightning running through my soul

I can't bare to watch you go

I call out I call out your name 

you turn with a look of distain 

And there it is the pain

I’ll have to lie to you again

I try to speak you just walk away

The lie will have to wait today

White lightning running through my vain

Its in may arms where you should have been

I never wanted it this way 

Another lies not gonna make you stay

And there it is the pain

I can't lie to you again

As you walk out the door

I'm dying here on the floor

White lightning killing me inside 

The lights go out one last time

My Hand

Hello can you feel  me I'm a familiar face

I've been standing here beside you each and every day

And I'll never know if you could feel my hand

Steady and guide you through this hostile land

Hope to help you one last time,

Oh oh child of mine

Oh your sweet face as you heard the news

When everyone around you didn't know what to do

But all you needed was a steady hand

To ground  you and help you understand 

I know I left you with no goodbyes 

Oh oh child of mine

The years have passed now wind calls my name

The pain of leaving  again is hard, hard  to take

But I've had the chance to watch you grow

And though you’ll probably never ever know 

Ive been here holding your hand

Oh child, oh child,  it time, oh child 

to offer up your own hand 

Oh child now you’re a man

Too Old to Die Young

]My beard may be white and I’m losing my hair. 

I'm a little hunched over cause I've had to bear 

the weight of all the crap life flung my way.

It’s taken 60 years to find my voice, 

to write and sing about my terrible choices, 

and a lot of craziness I’ve seen.

I’m too old to die young. Long haul and not a hit a run.

It don’t mean I ain't had no fun, trust me!

I can't make the ventisette club. But I've partied like I could have. 

Jimi, Jannis and Amy would have to agree.

With the opportunities that life brings 

don’t be a pale reflection of what might have been, 

it’s never too late to follow your dreams.

While I'm not young I'm nowhere done, 

I gonna rock and roll and sing my songs, 

with guitar and foot drum I fly free.

Too old to die young, I'm long haul and not a hit a run.

It don’t mean I ain't had no fun, trust me!

I can't make the ventisette club. But I've partied like I could have. 

Jimi, Jannis and Amy would have to agree.

Instrumental 

Strike a chord and join the furore. 

Sing out loud and kick open the door.

Let’s show these folks how we party!

We’re too old to die young, long haul and not a hit a run.

We’re gonna rock and have some fun, just see!

We won’t make the ventisette club. But we can party like we could have. 

Jimi, Jannis and Amy would have to agree.

Party till the morning comes. Nineteen Ninety-Nine Prince sung,

that’s gonna take some years off guaranteed.

I'll offer you everything I can, playing here as your solo band.

Come join this old man’s rock and roll dream.

We’re too old to die young, a long haul and not a hit a run.

Will you rock until the morning comes with me?

Strike A Cross

With a lot of birthdays comes the knowledge that life's full of berks

as well as disappointment about how the real world works.

Fairness and justice are simply myths.

When I think about it I clench my fists.

Your cross and my cross don’t need to be the same.

But each cross we yield can bring about change.

Don't hunker down and wait it out.

Strike a cross and get the bastards out.

The mega rich are playing us for fools.

Taking control and manipulating our rules 

We elect bullet proof and Teflon coated thieves.

Its takes one simple cross to stop this thievery. 

Your cross and my cross don’t need to be the same.

But each cross we yield can bring about change.

Don't hunker down and wait it out.

Strike a cross and get the bastards out.

Blue, red, yellow, or green, 

the longer they’re in the more reckless they’ll be. 

So whatever your colour don’t let them reign for long.

Money corrupts no matter the party song.

Your cross and my cross don’t need to be the same.

But each cross we yield can bring about change.

Don't hunker down and wait it out.

Strike a cross.........

Your cross and my cross don’t need to be the same.

But each cross we yield can bring about change.

Don't hunker down and wait it out.

Strike a cross .

Strike a cross, Strike a cross, Strike a cross and get the bastards out.

This Heart Of Mine

One winter’s night it ended there, 

I was left feeling oh so scared. 

A chance to keep my heart intact, 

Was taken from me when she turned her back. 

Now I can't sleep, I just want to see

A change of light shining down on me. 

Staring up towards the pale moonlight 

Will I always see it through sad blue eyes?

Why did love die, why did I chance this heart of mine? 

Time heals all or so I'm told,

Lessons learnt as mistakes unfold,

Lift up my eyes and look ahead,

Best foot forward there’s no turning back.

Can I survive if I chance this heart of mine? 

(Bridge) 

Now time has past only scars remain

my heart is strong and I feel no pain.

Happy under that pale moon-light

No longer seen through sad blue eyes

Now some years on and I look back and smile,

At the hearts I’ve won n lost each so worth while.

I wont give up, though I haven’t met her yet,

I know she’ll be the one who’ll never turn her back.

I'll sore so high, and chance this heart of mine?

Wake Up

Full of wild expectation as the dawn’s sun arrives

Her naked body beside you dappled in the morning light

You know that you want her you can no longer wait

And you whisper baby I love wake and make love to me

Honey I need you wake up and set my love free

Darling please hear me wake up and start loving me

Like we used to when our hearts were so wild and young

Baby I love you but look at what we’ve become.

Across the breakfast table with her smart phone in hand

She checks her status in face-book following her legion of friends

Her face lights up at a message that she has just received 

You whisper baby I love but do you still love me

Honey I need you wake up and set my love free

Darling please hear me wake up and start loving me

Like we used to when our hearts were so wild and young

Baby I love you but look at what we’ve become.

You both go to the party it’s a warm sunny weekend            

Your beautiful lady is talking with her friends

She turns towards you and give you the eye

Then mouths baby I love lets make love tonight

Honey I need you wake up and set my love free

Darling please hear me wake up and start loving me

Like we used to when our hearts were so wild and young

Baby I love you but look at what we’ve become.

With My Love For You

I was gonna be the one who never let you down 

I was gonna be the one who'd always be around 

I was gonna take you in my arms 

Take away your fears and mend your heart 

Set out a light on the shore and mark the way to your door 

I'll be coming home real soon with my love for you

Your pictures in the magazine 

you were my one and only my teenage dream

The light that burned within your eyes 

took away my breath and passivised 

The rebel boy in a hostel town 

with a sullen heart and a furrowed brow

You made it ok just to be alone 

cause I knew one day I'd be with you my love

Set out a light on the shore and mark the way to your door 

I'll be coming home real soon with my love for you

The wind is howling it's a rough old sea 

and there's hundreds of miles between land and me

Here aboard I've been wondering why 

I never found you why I never tried 

All the promises I should have kept 

all of the dreams I never really dreamt 

One way or another Im gonna make it home 

one way or another I'll find you with my love

Set out a light on the shore and mark the way to your door 

I'll be coming home real soon with my love for you

Set out a light on the shore and mark the way to your door 

I'll be coming home real soon with my love for you

Roll

Late night rolling down the road

The rhythm of the tyres satisfies my soul

Headlights sparkling its the journey not the end

With no destination any roads gonna take me there

See it taste it smell it chase it Invite your hopes and dreams

Manifest your heart’s desire let your wishes sing,

You can be what you wanna be, remember you reap what you sow

All you gotta do is roll.

Dont look back face the way you wanna go

Keep on keeping on, rolling down your road

Die with memories, memories and not dreams

Perform not rehearse find and do your thing.

See it taste it smell it chase it Invite your hopes and dreams

Manifest your heart’s desire let your wishes sing,

You can be what you wanna be, remember you reap what you sow

All you gotta do is roll.

See it taste it smell it chase it Invite your hopes and dreams

Manifest your heart’s desire let your wishes sing,

You can be what you wanna be, remember you reap what you sow

All you gotta do is roll.

Rendezvous

3am and I’m far away 

from toil and anguish, heart ache and pain

Of a wasted life full of 9 to 5’s 

of that lottery ticket and that losing line  

It never really mattered to me, I suppose it should

I really want to believe, in you

Board the plane to another land 

leave behind what I know and what I understand

To a place and a space where I can be free 

where I can thrive love and hope and dream

It never really mattered to me, I suppose it should

I really want to believe, in you

Instrumental

It never really mattered to me, I suppose it should

I really want to believe, in you

Standing there with you auburn hair  loving smile and eyes that care

As we embrace and I breathe your sent 

I finally understand what you meant

It never really mattered to me, but now it does

I hope you also believe in us.

In us

It never really mattered to me, but now it does

I hope you also believe in us.

Take What You Want

Mess with my head, tell me that you care

Say what you want, then walk out of here

Leave me alone baby, I don't need no fuss

Take what you want, I don't give a fuck.

Driving my car windows down low

Music up loud and there’s nowhere to go

If I see him baby I'm gonna mow that mofo down

You better hope I don't see him around

Clean me out, take my last cent

Sleeping in the car, cause I can't pay the rent

You've taken everything but still you want more

Take what you want you've really gone too far.

Instrumental

Gun in my hand, hate in my heart

I’m fully loaded you’ve pushed me to far

You're not welcome here so don't call around again 

Take what you want it’s gonna be your end

Take what you want it’s gonna be your end

Take what you want it’s gonna be your end

Gone

Like a thief in the night 

I slipped away with everything and left you with no life 

I stole your heart crushed your sole,

And took away the only thing you ever truly loved

There’s no excuse what can I say, 

If I could I’d go back I would treat you right and change my ways

Hear me out stay on the phone, 

It’s one night only sugar, and in the morning I’ll be gone 

Like a ship in the night I’m just trying to find my way

Please listen to what I have to say

I know it was wrong but I had to go

What is that I hear, don’t say your not alone

Called to arms to defend what’s right, 

When I left you baby I was going off to fight

Now I’m back and on this night alone, 

I know I really shouldn’t but I had to call you on the phone

I’m not the man I used to be, 

You would see that honey if you’d only look at me

I can’t explain on the phone, 

Let me come on over and I’ll show you I’m not wrong 

Like a ship in the night I’m just trying to find my way

Please listen to what I have to say

I know it was wrong but I had to go

Who’s that with you, I have to know

I was bad, I know your right

I really shouldn’t have slopped off in the middle of the night

And left you there, on your own

Pregnant with our baby now I know that’s truly wrong

Take me back just for one last night

I will do my best to make everything right

I can make it like it used to be

Forget that man there with you ‘n’ spend a night with me.

Like a ship in the night I’m just trying to find my way

Please listen to what I have to say

I know it was wrong but I had to go

Don’t make me beg , no don’t put down the phone (Don’t make me beg , Oh you’re gone)

I Can Do Different

If I had the opportunity to live my life again 

I'd like someone to tell me the following,

A thing I could use, when I find at work

I need to take the bluster from a managers’ words

I can do different, but I can’t do more

Regardless the effort no matter the chore

Deride my (position as being not hard core. 

I can do different I just can’t do more.

If I had the opportunity to live my life again 

I'd like someone to tell me the following,

A thing I could use, when I find at work

I'm being bullied to put my work first

Don’t offer excuses for invites you can’t attend.

Simply say I'm not available then.

If they don’t respect, or trust you can prioritise 

They will show their cards by asking you why?

If I had the opportunity to live my life again 

I'd like someone to tell me the following,

A thing I could use, when I find at work

I can’t get a promotion to the job that I deserve. 

Don’t be too good at the job that you have now

or you’ll be irreplaceable confined and tied down. 

Be a little bit better at stuff just outside your scope.

Make them see they need you in a new post.

If I had the opportunity to live my life again 

I'd hope someone would share with me the aforementioned gems.

stuff I could use, when intoxicated by their role

a manager throws around their weight threatening to let me go.

So remember, 

I can do different, but I can’t do more

Don't offer an excuse to justify an answer.

Stay focused on the job you want not the job you got,

and learn to manage your managers ego will help you a lot. 

Get Off My Case

I've seen the writing on the wall

Just like a million times before

That sneer that look that hateful gaze

All I see my dear here is disdain.

I might be wrong that wouldn't be new

There so many terrible things I'm told I do

Maybe I should repent and learn my place 

But all I wanna say to you, right here right now is get off my case!

Yeh baby wind you neck in

The boss don't like my attitude

He's always in an awful mood

I'm blamed for everyone's mistakes

Even when I'm on my coffee break.

I might be wrong that wouldn't be new

There so many terrible things I'm told I do

Maybe I should repent and learn my place 

But all I wanna say to you , right here right now is get off my case!

Yeh go eat shit and die

It seems no matter where I go

I really never do belong

I take the fall for all that's wrong

Its all I've ever really had known

x2

I might be wrong that wouldn't be new

There so many terrible things I'm told I do

Maybe I should repent and learn my place 

But all I wanna say to you , right here right now is get off my case!

Jog on and leave me alone

First Sight

Under the star and through the snow 

You came upon me,  it was so cold

On that fateful night when we first met

Little did we know where it ud end

When I met you, I knew right there that heaven had sent you.

Cupid’s arrow shot straight to my heart.

No messing baby, I know you might think that I’m crazy

But I knew I’d  love you from the vary start

Time is bound to bring us all kinds of change

But for the record baby I,  I just have to say 

My soul is rested in your loving arms

I know it’s where I belong

When I saw you I could do nothing but adore you

Cupid’s arrow shot straight to my heart.

Don’t mind me baby you know by now that I’m a little crazy

And I’ll always love you no matter what

 It’s said that  lovers come and go while friends remain

You are my heart and soul, my joy my friend

A friend for ever a lover for life

I need you here by my side

Instrumental

No messing baby,  I know you think that I’m a crazy

And I’ll always love you no matter what 

When I saw you I could do nothing but adore you

Cupid’s arrow shot straight to my heart. (Yup)

Cupid’s arrow shot straight to my heart. (Oh yes it did)

Cupid’s arrow shot straight to my heart.
