POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Last Call
folks
this is the last song of the evening
time for one last round
so pick 'em up and
slam 'em down...
couples headin'
to the dance hall floor
some lonesome doves
walkin' out the door
take a look around
into the lonely fa-ces
broken hearts
yearnin' for tender gra-ces
see the hopeful eyes
lookin' back at you
you've seen each other
from across the room
if you act now
you wont be turned awa-y
another day
might be too la-te ...

Love Then \ Forsake Me
i saw your message
written in your crimson prose
letters you had written
to let me know
now i know
just how
you loved me so
dont say goodbye
dont even close your eyes
dont leave this life
we never said goodbye
one last sigh
and then we say goodbye
why do ya hate me
love then forsake me
you kissed then left
me lost and longin
longin for somethin'
somethin' that mattered
now all that's left
is lost
and shattered

too far
i wished
upon a starry night
couldn't find
a wishing well
i long to feel you
in my arms
i'm caught
within your spell
i wished
that you were
here with me
wished
upon a star
i wished
that you were
here with me
but i guess
it was
too far
i wished
upon a starry night
wished
upon a star
i'm falling
for an angel
like
a falling star
upon a starry night
couldn't find
a wishing well
i long to feel you
in my arms
i'm caught
within your spell
i wished
that you were
here with me
wished
upon a star
i wished
that you were
here with me
but i guess
it was
too far
i wished
upon a starry night
wished
upon a star
i'm falling
for an angel
like
a falling star

Something Broke Inside
when i was a little boy
all my world
was full of joy
we were young
and we were free
we were so blind
we could not see
when your world breaks down
and you've fallen down
woh oh oh oh
woh oh oh oh
something broke
inside
i'm so numb
cant even cry
woh oh oh
woh oh oh
we had our fun
we had our day
we always had
to have our way
with nothing left
to say
we just turn
and walk away
all my world
was full of joy
we were young
and we were free
we were so blind
we could not see
when your world breaks down
and you've fallen down
woh oh oh oh
woh oh oh oh
something broke
inside
i'm so numb
cant even cry
woh oh oh
woh oh oh
we had our fun
we had our day
we always had
to have our way
with nothing left
to say
we just turn
and walk away

The Fartheste Shorre

Wynter's Nyght
wynters' nyght
is closing in
alone inside
the storm begins
summer sun
that was your heart
is turned to stone
now love is lost
(bridge)
come in from the rai--n
the sky is fallin'
don't give in to your pai--n
tho night is call--in'...
(chorus)
heav--en
was an in-candescent fi---re
captured
in the heart
of your desire
and lo--ve
was a momentary li---ght
lost
upon the sea
of your desi---re
No-ohhhhhhhh
summer sun
setting fast
