You can see it in their eyes A common feeling You can see it despite the disguise A common feeling Can I tell you this story? One that comes from my dreams To me it is so real Like tearing apart at the seams There are people who have Pride in hurting you What created that need Lets work to set them free

Can’t seem to forget about you……(about you) Can’t seem to get you out of my head……..(my head) It hurts just to think about it………. The summer breeze That is here to stay Reminds me of you We danced all night And you held me tight You loved me right Can’t seem to forget about you (about you, about you, about you) Can’t seem to get you out of my head (my head, can’t seem to, can’t seem to) It hurts just to think about it………. about it, can’t seem to, can’t Long hot days Without a care So free and easy I liked to walk You liked to talk And I new I loved you Can’t seem to forget about you (about you, about you, about you) Can’t seem to get you out of my head (my head, can’t seem to, can’t seem to) It hurts just to think about it………. about it, can’t seem to, can’t Da dada dada da da Da dada dada da da

In the corner is your picture A time filled with laughter So much life to give Only to be taken away And as I grow old You will always be young No chance to say goodbye A weekend that turned out forever I hope that you are well And looking out for me I miss you so dearly My great, great friend And as I grow old You will always be young And as I grow old As I grow old

Where do you see me? Fitting in with your plans, ohhhhhhhhh!! How do I see you? And all that you do, nowwwwwwwww!! Something new Passing through So complicated Why do you, need to be Something new Passing through Now your thinking Absorbed in a mental void What is wrong with you? What have i got to do? Why can’t you see it through? Why is this something new? Take your time Cause I am gone What is wrong with you? What have i got to do? Why can’t you see it through? Why is this something new? What is wrong with you? What have i got to do? Why can’t you see it through? Why is this something new? Something new Something new Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

I am reading from a book One that tells of the power of now Not of the accumulation of money Nor of how I should look Its strength lies in its message That success can mean so many things As long as we hold respect and love for all our life And we look for what is important It is there to be found For what will enrich us is closely within our grasp Never let doubt take over your mind Do not dwell in sadness and pain Happiness and strength is in our control Waiting ever patiently, for us to hold So nurture that which makes you strong Keep open to all possibilities Live life to its fullest And bring love to all that you do This is the way of life This is the way of life……….

Fallen Idol 02:41
I can see the way it’s going to be The path that has been set for me A shining light, a shining light, bright to the sight Coming out, tonight, tonight….. Lead me forward take me right, I am with you On a journey away, away…….. Nothing can stop me, I will reach you To follow you, follow you……… I will tell the people they must come To hear what it is that must be done To heal the world, heal the world To heal the world……….. You can’t have meant to get it all that wrong When you sang out loud in your song In your song, you were wrong You were wrong……… My Fallen Idol, my misguided trust Misplaced………… And you have left not guiding me Having trouble I am troubled Troubled………….

I wake up and my mind is unsound Needing a turn to see my way through Trying to convince myself “it will be fine. Just fine” The day is bringing light to me And I am seeing another side of me I am happy, can’t you see (I can) Lullaby I feel so tired I am so quiet Why now? Lullaby The rain comes down So soothe me So soothe me, now But now I am ready And so fit and strong Ready to get going And you will be there too This night has just started For you and me The darkness elevating To another better place And can you believe Our four emotions in one day Four emotions come my way Four emotions so you say There are four emotions in one day Four emotions in one day
