LYRICS

People often ask where they can find lyrics, so I compiled 10+ years worth of songs into one location! I even included some of the tunes I consider to be hot garbage clunkers, just for the fun of documenting the journey. If you'd like to support my songwriting, please download my music on iTunes, add songs to your Spotify Playlists, subscribe to my Youtube channel, and/or purchase physical copies of CDs wherever possible. These contributions help me sustain my career as an independent artist.

I've Got A Friend

3/20/2016

​i've got a friend who thinks she's jesus
but only when she's starting to climb
if you take away the storm she's braving
i think she does enough saving on her own time
she don't need the divine
 
i've got a friend simply known as V to us
she gives music away for the joy that it brings
she lives beautiful verse after verse
and sometimes that chorus can hurt
but she's gonna play anyway
she's gonna sing
 
she's got a friend who'll stand in her corner
round after round swing after swing
i've seen some scary shit
but i'm not afraid of it
cause she gave that gift to me
 
i'm in a band with my friend veronica
sometimes she's in command
sometimes i tow the line
so V i'm gonna wait for you
in every single waiting room
i don't care how many times
cause time always takes time
 
i've got a friend
and she's got me

Kite

​kite in the sky
girl on the ground
that is you and i
not the other way around
 
it started out as play, i ran every which way for your flight
unraveling string, but at the same time holding it tight
 
always overcome
you know you can depend
but what if I succumb
to my battle with the wind
 
now i wait for the day, i hear you say these words
i'm not really a kite, i think i just might be a bird

My Time

10/2/2011

summer turned to fall before we knew it
since the day i got the call
we’ve been fighting through it
though i am in need of sleep and peace of mind
you are the beat i keep
my rhythm, my rhyme
 
my time is your time
my wind is you chime

 
a smile hits your face and it warms me up like sun
i’m thankful for this place when i think of how far we’ve come
sometimes it takes some time
sometimes it takes a fall
to realize we’ll be fine
if we have each other, we have it all

Level With Me

7/18/2011

i keep pressing the button that takes me down to level c
and i laugh out loud because level’s a word that is used ironically
cause it may as well be a bucking bull
or a ship in the see with a hole in its hull
i keep hanging on and pray for the day you can be
level with me
 
pray that you’re level with me, it’s just a matter of time
before the revelry arrives, with your peace of mind
you can find me here, i’ll just be walking the line
until the day you are free and level with me

 
my eyes they are tired, and my heart is lonely
and my clothes smell like hospital
my collection is growing of those visitor stickers
peel them off and stick ‘em on the wall
but i wait every day and i walk to a well
full of love that we made and i fill up my pail
i just hang on and pray for the day you can be
level with me

Love is All it Takes

8/30/2010

you were a red light that stopped me right in my tracks
when i was flying through the crossroads
no yellow in between, quick change from red to green
you made me move, you made me go
 
you taught me to switch gears
and now the road is clear, we let go of the brakes
i'll drive with you my dear, and we'll collect souvenirs
love is all it takes

 
i picture you and me, two little girls at sea
digging our heels in shifting sands
baby don't cry those tears, there's enough salt out here
we hold our breath, we're holding hands
 
i'm learning how to tell when the next wave will swell
anticipate the breaks
i'm willing to dive through, long as i can pop up with you
love is all it takes

 
i ain't going anywhere, you can quote me girl, i said it
if something tries to break us, just trust that i won't let it
i don't need a judge to tell me that i'm wedded to you
you never have to worry, you never gotta sweat it
i told if you picked me you never would regret it
i loved you when i met you, i'll love you til the credits roll through
 
love, love, love is all it takes

Ring Around the Roses

7/11/2010

0 Comments

 
​we run holding hands to two open swings
i pump my legs slowly, hold tight to the chain links
blocking the light, i look up in the air
scream honey, are you sure you're alright up there?
you say i'm having a blast, get up here right now
i yell back i'm tired, and i don't know how
for days straight, i wait, trying to gauge where you'll be
when the clouds cave in so you can land on me
 
there's a ring around the roses on our own playground
there's nothing but earth and sky for miles around
and i say, oh how fun, let's reminisce 
you say, i've never seen a place like this
and i say, it's common as apple pie
you say, i know you are, but what am i

 
next we head over to tetherball poles
i wait on both sides, while you play both roles
there's no way to lose, there's no way to win
so i sit wondering when i'll get to sub in
you hit it so hard, i wince and i brace
cause i'm scared the ball's bound to smack me in the face
it'll fly off the handle if you play too rough
leave you bored with just me, cause i'm not enough
 
when we finally take a break in the day
we take turns making a pb and j
i spread mine thin, cause i hate a mess
and you pour it on thick, cause you love the excess

Same Time

2/15/2010

​can’t ascertain your explanation
that we are just friends and nothing more
i feel the same relief and frustration that one feels when
slamming a door
 
you make me happy and sad at the same time
you make me feel good and bad at the same time

 
you remind me of a deep blue sea
so beautiful and scary
you attract me like a battery
pushing and pulling polarity
