Tune Of The Sky

Tune Of The Sky

 

Gold dust lovely lady of the dawn

Tomorrow I trust today is gone

Long shadows glows dance on still water

Laughter’s born Love’s precious daughter

 

Whistling winds tune of the sky

Lonely angel flying high

Spirits speak telling why

Sacred secrets never to die

 

Crimson stains crying in anguished pains

In the end what remains?

Ashes to ashes dust of the Earth

Seeds sown in sorrow’s rebirth

 

Whistling winds tune of the sky

Lonely angel flying high

Spirits speak telling why

Sacred secrets never to die

 

Sound of the Trumpet final cry

You will make it if you try

Setting sun forgetting all

Night time rhyme the moon’s call

 

Whistling winds tune of the sky

Lonely angel flying high

Spirits speak telling why

Sacred secrets never to die

One day at work, when I wasn't working, I got bored. Singing to Evelyn just wasn't cutting it. So I wrote a lyrical answer to Neil Young's album After The Gold Rush. I call the follow up Long After The Gold Rush. I made a lyrical reply to each song. Still Don't Know answers Tell Me Why.

If you kids are good I'll post more!


Still Don’t Know

 

Sweet whispers under night’s sky

Why is heaven so high?

Clouds blowing to and fro

And I still don’t know

I have demons

Like heaven has its hell

I’ll keep on dreamin’

You really can never tell

 

Still don’t know, still don’t know

Still don’t know, still don’t know

 

Life’s confusion

Truth fades to illusion

You have all you desired

Cept what is required

 

You never came

Played me as if a game

Still you did give

It helped me to live

Yet the love didn’t grow

Still don’t know, still don’t know

 

Truth written in stone

Love’s essence never known

What more can I bring

Cept everything

 

Still don’t know, still don’t know

Still don’t know, still don’t know

Momma’s Country

 Momma’s Country

 

She ain’t got a PhD in philosophy                               

But common sense never came from a degree                 

Kind in her mind and love inside her heart                      

Momma’s country and living’s an art                              

 

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

And Momma means the world to me

She may be square but I know she cares

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

 

She shares the wisdom that only women know

Life is for the living it ain’t no show

Friday night comes around I wanna break free

Momma says child you’re staying home with me

 

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

And Momma means the world to me

She may be square but I know she cares

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

 

Life is hard with papa gone we sacrifice

I got an eye for the world it looks so nice

Momma reads the Bible Proverbs thirty-one

A woman of virtue that child how it’s done

 

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

And Momma means the world to me

She may be square but I know she cares

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

 

Sometimes late at night I stare at the ceiling

I’m hurting and I don’t know what I’m feeling

I try not to cry but still the tears flow

Life is for the living it ain’t no show

One day I’m going to break free get up and go

Till then I’ll hold to Momma I love her so

 

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

And Momma means the world to me

She may be square but I know she cares

Momma ain’t cool but she’s country

Forever Just Closed Her Eyes

 Forever Just Closed Her Eyes

 

Well women like clouds blow to and fro through your life         

I took a chance on a good one made her my wife                       

There was true love glowing bright inside of her eyes               

Life was mighty fine pure sunshine in blue skies                       

 

Forever just closed her eyes

This is the saddest of lullabies

True love never dies

Forever just closed her eyes

 

Lovers best of friends we walked down the winding way

The good Lord brought blessings each and every day

When the troubles came as doubles I held your hand

Together leaning on the Rock we made our stand

 

Forever just closed her eyes

This is the saddest of lullabies

True love never dies

Forever just closed her eyes

 

I held tight as the light wasn’t shining so bright

A battle to be fought and I gave it a fight

Grace became my closest friend I carried your cross

In the midst of war you learn not to count the cost

 

Forever just closed her eyes

This is the saddest of lullabies

True love never dies

Forever just closed her eyes

 

Beautiful poems words to hold on and keep

Sad goodbyes one tries not to weep

They say death is an eternal way to sleep

Meek and tender surrender God’s precious sheep

 

I want to write a love song the angels can sing

Do me a favor please say hello to the King

Save me a seat somewhere not too far from the throne

You know I promised you never to leave you alone

 

Forever just closed her eyes

This is the saddest of lullabies

True love never dies

Forever just closed her eyes

 Vanessa

 

Every punk is a walking talking piece of art

Hear Vanessa humming strumming her part

A rebel giving hell living in momma’s house

Roars like a lion and fights like a mouse

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Beauty is something that none can define

I don’t care about good hair I like mine

Big booty but if your snooty we won’t talk

See there with tender care Vanessa’s Mohawk

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Roger Roger I heard you lost your way

That you got old and sold for the pay

But you won’t be playing the temple gig

That’s the beauty of being bigger than big

 

And Vanessa well she dreams as we all do

Youth is an illusion where a delusion is true

Hey listen to what I say ride the peace train

War and Babylon the Whore are all in vain

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

 

Courage is getting out of bed and doing your thing

You don’t gotta be an opera star to sing

In the rat race only grace will take you far

I say that today Vanessa is a living star

 

Vanessa well she’s one of a kind

Troubled child with a troubled mind

Somebody the word has left behind

Vanessa when you look what do you find?

Open Hand

Here's an old one!  


Open Hand

 

This land is your land

This land is my land

Brethren can’t you understand

We’d best make a stand

Some come with fists of raging heat

I realize violence is obsolete

If it’s the world to defeat

An open hand would be a treat

 

Open hand open hand

Ain’t it so grand

Everyone can understand

The warmth of an open hand

 

A lot of shaking lot of talking

Meeting people while I’m walking

Millions of people pass me by

Hope they see the light in my eye

I met a beggar the other day

It seems he’d lost his way

I said hello, how are you, hi

He said, I’m getting by

Thank you for asking me

My open hand was a key

 

Open hand open hand

Ain’t it so grand

Everyone can understand

The warmth of an open hand

 

Why hatred and violence

They should be licensed

Without Love and kindness

Some people often miss

But you can take command

Give them an open hand

Show them that you care

Wish a handshake to share

 

Open hand open hand

Ain’t it so grand

Everyone can understand

The warmth of an open hand
