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

Immigrants

 Immigrants

 

Grandma Helen was a woman who knew no fear                            

She loved her children and adored her beer                                    

Anthony was a man chiseled out of steel                                

They were players in a game called This Ordeal                   

 

Immigrants without a penny to their name

Got holes in their shoes but no shame

Wage slaves dancing in the shuffle

When you’re poor you gotta hustle

 

Down in Green Point Brooklyn Polish was the lingo

The nights got real cold no one stayed single

True love’s a dream but marriage was close enough

When you’re working twelve hours shifts life becomes tough

 

Immigrants without a penny to their name

Got holes in their shoes but no shame

Wage slaves dancing in the shuffle

When you’re poor you gotta hustle

 

Too busy surviving for anyone to live

There are secret sins we cannot forgive

Dark times of history I’m looking at shades

I see Tony in the mirror but he quickly fades

 

Immigrants without a penny to their name

Got holes in their shoes but no shame

Wage slaves dancing in the shuffle

When you’re poor you gotta hustle

 

The rules are only for the fools Rockefeller cries

We got a World War to fight as all hope dies

Lessons of the depression stomachs all empty

Someone tell me is this how life was meant to be

 

We always build on the things that came before us

But I never heard the words of the chorus

I cry in a manic high asking the world Why?

But without a look the world passes on by

 

Immigrants without a penny to their name

Got holes in their shoes but no shame

Wage slaves dancing in the shuffle

When you’re poor you gotta hustle

We’re The Song

 We’re The Song

 

Just a Jersey girl full of Jersey charms                          

I’m so proud to hold you in my arms                                    

Walking the boardwalk sharing our dreams                          

Down and dirty underneath crying screams                          

 

You’re the words I’m the melody

I’m rough and tumble you’re pretty

Together we’re the song The road may be long

But together we’re the song

 

High hopes for the future living today

Long ago we left the narrow way

Trading golden crosses for the now

I’m sure Jesus understands us somehow

 

Crucified denied on the spinning wheel

Sounds like fantasy but love is real

You and me baby until we die

The stars in heaven testify to why

 

You’re the words I’m the melody

I’m rough and tumble you’re pretty

Together we’re the song The road may be long

But together we’re the song

 

I whisper you my secrets sealed with trust

Whatever we got it’s more than lust

Let life freeze us in an endless kiss

My thoughts turn to you I need more of this

 

You’re the words I’m the melody

I’m rough and tumble you’re pretty

Together we’re the song The road may be long

But together we’re the song

 

And so the guitar goes on a solo

We improvise the parts we don’t know

Our one-night stand was many years ago

Now every night so tight we do the show

 

You’re the words I’m the melody

I’m rough and tumble you’re pretty

Together we’re the song The road may be long

But together we’re the song

Lady Kay

 Lady Kay

 

Hey Lady Kay your headlights burn me through the night

I don’t pray I’ll just say I’m feeling all right

A boat in motion on the ocean in sweetest devotion

If your fire has more desire I’ll second the notion

 

Picture pose Lady Kay you’re the show

What we want we all know

Today Lady Kay you’re the star

Tomorrow we don’t know who you are

 

Smile even if you gotta fake it this is fiction after all

You signed on the line you’re mine if you don’t recall

Five purple moons shining in the distant horizon

Laughing drinking Champaign with the whisky cryin’

 

Picture pose Lady Kay you’re the show

What we want we all know

Today Lady Kay you’re the star

Tomorrow we don’t know who you are

 

Diamond studs in your ears pearls dangle about your neck

In your royal presence we give you utmost respect

But all alone with Little Willie we cry and moan

You’re the queen of the scene come down from your throne

 

Picture pose Lady Kay you’re the show

What we want we all know

Today Lady Kay you’re the star

Tomorrow we don’t know who you are

 

And God has His will but we’re unsure

Sex is good but sex is a war

Pills give thrills you want more

We’ve walked this road long before

 

Surrender is sweet and there’s victory in defeat

Come into the room before the boom I’ll lick your feet

And in the still of the moment tears flow insane

Money fools rule the world but the rich are vain

 

Picture pose Lady Kay you’re the show

What we want we all know

Today Lady Kay you’re the star

Tomorrow we don’t know who you are

This Is A Love Song

 This Is A Love Song

 

I’m sitting here wondering

What color her hair will be tonight

Ruby red jet black maybe green in the neon light

I’m sitting here pondering

If we’re going to make sweet love or have a fight

 

I don’t care what you got to say

It doesn’t matter the price you pay

This is a love song a seductive melody

This is a love song just you and me

 

Every road has turns some come to an end

We were the best of lovers now the closest of friends

Torn asunder but hopefully on the mend

If it ain’t reality she surely pretends

 

I don’t care what you got to say

It doesn’t matter the price you pay

This is a love song a seductive melody

This is a love song just you and me

 

Rock and roll refugee from a forgotten time

I lost all my money now she don’t give a dime

Memories of majesties she’s a work of art

I was king of her mind but never captured her heart

 

I don’t care what you got to say

It doesn’t matter the price you pay

This is a love song a seductive melody

This is a love song just you and me

 

On the Muse they abuse you if you ain’t on the in

They begin with a grin and quickly proceed to sin

Penthouse pretties now she’s something of the past

This was a love song and love songs were meant to last

 

I don’t care what you got to say

It doesn’t matter the price you pay

This is a love song a seductive melody

This is a love song just you and me

 

Lunch is late the cook must be on a date of desire

After all these years it appears she can still light my fire

Flesh and blood are good but fantasy goes higher

Come my lovely one hear the tongue of a liar

 

I don’t care what you got to say

It doesn’t matter the price you pay

This is a love song a seductive melody

This is a love song just you and me
