KATHLEEN
It's plain to see, the sun won't shine today
But I ain't in the mood for sunshine anyway
Maybe I'll go insane
I got to stop the pain
Maybe I'll go down to see Kathleen
A swallow comes and tells me of her dreams
She says she'd like to know just what they mean
I feel like I could die
As I watch her flying by
Ride the north wind down to see Kathleen
The stars hang high above, the oceans roar
The moon is come to lead me to her door
There's crystal across the sand
And the waves, they take my hand
Soon I'm gonna see my Kathleen
Soon I'm gonna see my Kathleen

THE END OF SUMMER
I don’t want to live forever
But it would be nice to have some more time
Do those things I always wanted to
Leave this world with a smile
I don’t know if we get a second chance
Each day could be the last dance
Is it the end, the end of summer?
Is it the end of a beautiful day?
My life been full of memories
And it makes me sad one day they’ll be gone
I don’t know if we’ll ever meet again
All I know is I’m so proud I was your friend
Is it the end, the end of summer?
Is it the end of a beautiful day?
Two lovers walking in the rain
Children laughing innocently playing
The whole world each and everyone
And it will be sad when it’s gone
Is it the end, the end of summer?
Is it the end of a beautiful day?

Troubled Man
Trouble Man
Whole worlds against you
They don’t understand
Can’t anyone make you see?
How good your life would be
But all the world sees is this troubled man
Troubled Man
How do you sleep?
One day so strong
The next so weak
Can’t you feel your mothers pain
Or are you happy to remain a Troubled Man

DESERT HEARTS
I’m watching the sand storms blow
From my front porch
Where will they be tomorrow?
Does anybody really know?
Desert hearts in the wilderness,
Emotions blowing in the wind
Feel I’ve lived more than one lifetime
Will I ever get to see you?
I’ve been down so many times
You can take all my money
But you won’t get my pride
You live on that mansion on the hill
Have you ever heard
The story of Jack and Jill?
Well mister I’ve seen your face before
Weren’t you the guy
Who wanted to build that wall?
Peace love and understanding always wins
They’re gonna get you one day
I’m sure they will
And I don’t know where they went wrong
Why these things have to be
I always thought that I was strong
Could never see this misery
I’ve been asking too many questions
All of my life
And I still don’t know the answers
What is wrong and what is right?
There is a world outside my door
A place that so many people ignore
And I’ve been thinking of an old friend
I wish that she was here
Life is full of memories to me most are clear
There was a girl I used to know
She broke my heart but I never let it show
I’m watching the flowers grow
From my front porch
Where will I be tomorrow?
Does anybody really know?
Desert hearts in the wilderness
Emotions blowing in the wind
Feel I’ve lived more than one lifetime
Will I ever get to see you, again?
