Blues Rules
02:30
|

|
Once the love you gave me
Saved me
Now I’m feeling heartache
And Blues
Once I was so glad I
Had you
Now I’m sad there’s nothing left
But Blues
Rock has an attitude
Pop’s a sing along
Jazz makes my mind be cool
But my heart is ruled by Blues
Time will hold the key to
Be free
Til’ then the flag that flies inside
Is blue

I just heard the news
It’s hard times, you say
You’re feeling so used
Who’d treat you that way?
Come over here
I’ll be sweet for you today
There’s not enough kindness in the world
I know that you’re right
But they shot you down
Your smile’s so bright
But they’d rather you frown
Come over here
We’ll light up the town
And spread a little more kindness in the world
Why do some people just want to be cruel?
It’s a harsh cold world when they’re pushing on you
Good times will come
The soft breeze will blow
You’ve got so much love
And some of us know
Come over here
Let’s get on with the show
And spread a little more kindness in the world
There’s not enough kindness in the world

Let Her Go
03:23
|
|||
|
Had to go back
To the bar
Where I met you
Back to the love
And the dreams
We shared
The pretty girl
Serving drinks
As usual
Said it’s been years
Since she’s seen
You there
Let her go, let her go
Let her go, let her go
Life’s not a song
And never is too long
I could search the whole world over
Yeah, but the girl
That I knew
Isn’t there
There are so many things
I could tell you
Double take
Thought I saw you there
Chorus

Sailin' Back To Me
02:54
|
|||
|
I wrote a note
I put it in a bottle
I dropped that bottle
Into the deep blue sea
I told her
I’d be at the dock tomorrow
And I hope that she comes
Sailin’ back to me
We’ll go sailin’, sailin’ on
Sailin’ on the sea
Sailin’, sailin’ home
I hope that she comes
Sailin’ back to me
I spent all day
Eye on the horizon
I regret
I let her slip away
I knew that her return
Would be surprising
But I saw the mast
And then I saw her wave
As she came sailin’, sailin’ on
Sailin’ on the sea
Sailin’, sailin’ home
I saw my baby
Sailin’ back to me
I saw my baby
Sailin’ home to me

Summer's Daughter
03:19
|
|||
|
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
She goes
Never stop
Remain the same
But always change
Just like a river flows
Greens of Spring
Sing their colors
Fall some day
To Winter gray
Seize the day
Summer’s daughter
Free to cross the land
Down to the creek
Sweet cool water
Is running through her hands
Running through her hands
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
She goes
Made to climb
The mountains high
Skies to fly
And feel the four winds blow
Dreams of Spring
Sing their colors
Fall some day
To Winter gray

Try Again
02:38
|
|||
|
There’s a dream in my nights
Where people are passing by
And they smile and wave
Though once their hearts were broken
Careless love, foolish heart
Didn’t know I would play the part
Then I hear a voice still whisper
When I’ve woken
And she say’s
Try again
‘Cause the past is way back then
And remember to forget
Until a broken heart can mend
Restless nights, restless days
Broken hearts still feel this way
No it’s nothing knew
Except this time it’s you

Old Times Song
02:43
|
|||
|
There’s an old time melody
It sparks my memory
And takes me back
To days past
When our love was new
Heard it on the radio
Now my mind’s a picture show
That sweet old song
Reminds me of you
Times are gone
We still love
In the song
You’ll find a touch of what
Keeps it young
Keeps us dreaming
Of the good times we’ll have
Hold me tight
Come in close
Firelight
And afterglow
And that old time song
Playing low
Fashions change
They come and go
But what remains
Is love that grows
And that old times song
Playing low
That old times song
You know

Another Wasted Night
03:08
|
|||
|
Who are you? who are you
Where did you go, my darling?
Who did you see?
You think I don’t know, my darling
That you’re cheatin’ on me
You could never be true, baby
I sink like a stone
On another wasted night
I sit alone
Why did you love me, baby?
I can’t recall
Didn’t ask you to trust me, baby
It’s your own fault
You don’t own the truth, darling
You sit like a stone
On another wasted night
Alone
Love can be heartache
Love can be cruel
Twists of the mind
Don’t play by the rules
Who are you? who are you
Don’t want you to go, darling
But I don’t want you to stay
All that I know, is that I
Don’t want it this way
You could never be true, baby
I sink like a stone
On another wasted night
I sit alone
