coming around
guess it's been a wild ride
that's how you'd describe my life
but things aren't as they seem
someone's watching over me
had a friend once tell me
she said you know what julie
someone's on your side
i can see it in your eyes
when my heart's about to break
and i've had all i can take
something in me see's
a reason to believe
someone's coming around for me
so babe i've made my bed now
i'll try to find some fresh towels
welcome to my home
forgive the skeletons and bones
and all i have to offer
is simple and it's honest
and all you to do
is say you love me and be good
when my heart's about to break
and i've had all i can take
something in me see's
a reason to believe
someone's coming around for me
coming around for me
coming around for me
when my heart's about to break
and i've had all i can take
something in me see's
a reason to believe
you might be coming around for me
coming around for me
coming around for me
coming around for me
coming around for me

3 a.m.
tired of dealing
when I’ve failed
tired of feeling
so bad
it’s 3 a.m. again
are you wide awake my friend
left holding on to the ball
call me if you need
a shoulder to lean your head upon
when you fall
struggle for peace
pray hard for sleep
God rest my soul
and let things be
it’s 3 a.m. again
are you wide awake my friend
left holding on to the ball
call me if you need
a shoulder to lean your head upon
when you fall
take a walk with me
strangers in need
no need to talk
I see your face
take a walk with me
I’ll see you as I see
not who you think you are
It’s 3 a.m. again
It’s 3 a.m. again
It’s 3 a.m. again

Starlight Bungalow
I was thinking one bright hot day
you might somehow come out my way
Who would have thought you'd be the one to know
directions to my starlight bungalow
taking me the place we call home...
come on baby love me and keep me warm
Now we're in a cab then the subway home
talk of curtains and home depot
Who would have thought you'd be the one to know
directions to my starlight bungalow
taking me the place we call home...
Without you I can't see
fly me now into the galaxy
find a planet all our own
take me to that place we call home...
come on baby love me and keep me warm

Things To Do
Rushing through
I forgot my list of things to do
Halfway somewhere
Can't remember if I love you
or if I care
Can I make it in this state of mind
Leave it on myself to rely
Living through the days alone
with only the constant of chores
Time sets in
Can't recall if you're an enemy
or my friend
I forget
Can I make it in this state of mind
Leave it on myself to rely
Living through the days alone
with only the constant of chores
The winter's here and
the days are rough
The coffee is just
enough to keep me up
You read the paper
I'm off for cigarettes
And that's the last I'll
ever see your face
Sleepy eyes look through
baby can you tell me
were you on my list
of things to do
Can I make it in this state of mind
Leave it on myself to rely
Living through the days alone
with only the constant of chores
Take a ride on a bus for fun
Think about dinner for one
Pick the dryclean up and then
start all over again...

Time
I've got a feeling
that time will never end
I've got a feeling
that time is our best friend
Cause you stopped believing
that I might have known what was best
Now I can't seem to trust you
I hope that time can help us mend
And where are we suppose to go now
How are we to move forward somehow
Tell me how am I to live through days
thinking that you might just go away
away again...
please don't go away again
I've got a feeling
that time will never end
I've got a feeling
that time is our best friend

80 East
Driving on down south 80 East
shades of autumn fall down around me
Feels just like I'm in a dream
In the morning wake me up
Get me out of bed, make sure
I'm clean and brushed
Get the kids to school dressed right
Know that I feel blessed
to have you in my life
Now you look at me
In your eyes are signs of things to be
Feels just like I'm in a dream
In the morning wake me up
Get me out of bed, make sure
I'm clean and brushed
Get the kids to school dressed right
Know that I feel blessed
to have you in my life
Didn't know the days would turn to years
and you'd be the keeper at the gate of fears
wasn't sure that I could
didn't think that you would
be the one who's there for me
In the morning wake me up
Get me out of bed, make sure
I'm clean and brushed
Get the kids to school dressed right
Know that I feel blessed
to have you in my life

Haze
You and God don't always get along
You try so hard
But you fall and I wait
for you to open love's gates
and I dream
By and by guess I'm good
half the time
But I fall and you wait
for me to open love's gate
and I try so hard
can't seem to figure out what's wrong
and I dream
You won't be my demise
we tried again and again but no dice
and in another world another time
we might just get the chance to make things right
but until then... I'll dream

Friends
Can you feel me moving quickly
see you once again
I'm not far I won't be long
I'll see you once again
Though I'm gone
the ties are strong
You will always be a friend to me
Live inside this field of memories
for life
Not there yet I won't forget
I'll see you once again
Hold on tight now to the path
I'll see you once again
Yes I'm gone
but the the ties are strong
and you know...
You will always be a friend to me
Live inside this field of memories
Take me back to days when I was young
for life
The songs I write, I write for you
Every verse I sing, I'll sing for you
If you're missing me know that
I'm thinking of you... too
cause you know....
You will always be a friend to me
Live inside this field of memories
Take me back to days when I was young
for life

Somber Blue
Had faith in our rights
Took hope in sacrifice
Then the phone rings that sound
Screams of turn the television on
try to stay strong
Stopped by tonight
Smelled your scent by my side
Came to bid farewell
Couldn't leave without saying good-bye
Always so polite
Now baby don't you worry
I promised I wouldn't cry
Their cheering for you
As for me, it's somber blue
Baby hear my prayers
keep them close and dear
I'll be there real soon
In the warmth of God and your loving arms
Til then carry on
Now baby don't you worry
I promised I wouldn't cry
Their cheering for you
As for me, it's somber blue
Now baby don't you worry
I promised I wouldn't cry
They finally found the truth
As for me, it's somber blue
Baby hear my prayers
Keep them close to you

Sad Sunday
Try hard to breathe
Try hard to scream
but words can't find
what's on my mind
Twist and I'm torn
Alas I'm just a girl
who's gone astray
on this sad Sunday
this sad Sunday
I don't want to talk about it
I don't want to mull it over
Just want to take a chance
and understand
Wait just to hear
tell me how you feel
Is it the same
or just a game
What are you doing
I'm talking bout us
and I pray
on this sad Sunday
this sad Sunday
I don't want to talk about it
I don't want to mull it over
Just want to take a chance
and understand
Why are you there
when I need you here
Come on home
can't stand the phone
God speed I say
I just can't wait
to touch your face
on this sad Sunday
this sad Sunday

#9
Baby things are going crazy
Out of control
Baby didn't mean to take things
Out on my own
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
Baby can you forgive me
wasn't that I lied
I'm just a little messed up
faulty by design
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
Babe I tried to sleep at night
but laid awake in city lights
and yes we tried but I can't give in
not this time
Baby things are going crazy
Out of control
Baby didn't mean to take things
Out on my own
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
Then the clouds rolled in
Put a blanket on your love
