She was way too young...

Cause he'd loved her from the time
she'd been the waitress at the Mexican place
where he'd left his keys
She'd been there smiling at the lost and found

Holding hands singing "Joy to the World"

She was way too young but he did not care
He was all right with cashing in
a few fine moments before his broken heart kicked in

He died a little bit each time the night came in
And the stars fell over Michigan
'Cause he'd loved her at the bar when he saw her dancing

Then he'd come over to his usual spot
Soon they were making out at 3AM in the 
empty parking lot
They lay together under the burnt out stars

She never loved him back
It wasn't even close 

But he was fine to just pretend
That it was never gonna end
And it was worth it just to know
A little warmth before the snow

Late night blues...

one plus one equals two
But to subtract one from one, we are left with none-

Late night blues carrying me under a spell
Fell into memories of other times
Looking for completing rhymes
Lost in space
And no trace of out

I miss you, friend
You held me close
It's not fair that I run without a care
I just wish you were there

Furry coats...

Furry coats, he said
Are like playful wings
They remind you to see the fun in things
Step outside in silly stride
Take a walk on the wild side!

Live hard...

(my photo from SF)

When life grabs you
Fall over and let it lift you
Because there are times when you have to push-
But if the wind decides to lead
Take the good deed
And move with speed
Lucky you
Follow through

See my way...

Happy feet...

(click to see them dance)

Moving to keep up with the movement
Running round this city pounding pavement
Leap into this step
Dance with heart
Bare through the bleed
Kneel down in creed
Praying I can help those in need
Dancing with happy feet
