“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind,
flight to the imagination, and life to everything.”

– Plato

Read the lyrics of my songs

Angels here among us

Like the first cry of a baby, and the smile of an old man
Like a flower in the desert, reaching up out of the sand
There’s no other explanation for why people fall in love
All these miracles in life, brought by angels here among us

– CHORUS –
Miracles happen every day, things you can’t explain away
You know they do; you’ve seen them too
There are angels here among us
They live and breathe and look like us
Maybe you are one too

Like the way people forgive us for the mistakes that we’ve made
Like the sound of someone’s laughter puts a smile upon your face
There’s no end to the examples that each of us know of
Everyday blessings brought by angels here among us

Like the way people forgive us for the mistakes that we’ve made
Like the sound of someone’s laughter puts a smile upon your face
There’s no end to the examples that each of us know of
Everyday blessings brought by angels here among us

Detours

I can’t tell you what road I’m on. How I got here I’m not sure.
I’ve traveled many roads since I was young; I ain’t young no more
The road gets rough from time to time
Where I’m headed ain’t always clear
Wrong turns and detours I’ve done em all and now I’m standing here

– CHORUS –
The way seemed clear in my mind,
But I’d get lost from time to time
I’d get high and then I’d fall
Wrong turns and detours I’ve done em all
Wrong turns and detours I’ve done em all

Can’t really tell you everywhere I’ve been,
or everyone I’ve met on the way
I’ve done good things, and I’ve done some sin,
which I’ve done most I can’t say
There are some things that I’d do over,
there’s a lot that I’d forget
I’ve had tears and pain and laughter,
I’ve had success and regrets

I’ve been safe and been in danger,
I’ve got memories – good and bad
I’ve had lovers and I’ve had strangers.
made some happy, and left some sad
When I finally get to my journeys end,
when I meet my maker, I’ll stand tall
I tried hard and sometimes I’d win.
the road has let me see it all

I Cried Today

I cried today, said the earth to the sky
These people are killing me I don’t understand why
With wars and pollution, and hatred and greed
They’re destroying the world over things they don’t need

I cried right with you, the sky did respond
They’re breaking my heart the way they carry on
We won’t survive if they don’t change their way
That’s the reason why I cried today

– CHORUS –
People let’s stop what we’re doing It’s time to make a stand
We don’t have the right to ruin All the air, water and land

I cried today Said the sea to the land
People just don’t care Or they don’t understand
They’ve got to do more than just hope and pray
That’s the reason why I cried today

I cried today said the father to the son
Can you ever forgive us for the damage we’ve done
We wasted our time now you’ll have to pay
That’s the reason why I cried today

Look all around us, it brings tears to the eyes
We have to wake up before everything dies

…I cried today …I cried today …I cried today …I cried today

Someday

One of these days I want to wake up,
and there’s no wars anywhere
People aren’t dying because they can’t get medical care
And Women are finally earning equal pay
…Someday …Someday

It’d be great if everyone in love was allowed to just be free
And we don’t allow another species to go extinct
Politicians actually mean them things they say
…Someday …Someday

– CHORUS 1 –
Someday can’t come soon enough- in fact it’s overdue
It won’t get better by itself, it’s up to me and you
I want dreams to be encouraged and not betrayed
I know that it can happen someday
…Someday …Someday …Someday …Someday

I want to live where just one job provides for all you need
Communities aren’t destroyed just for corporate greed
And nobody criticizes how you pray
…Someday …Someday

I want a world where our veterans aren’t living on the street
Where water is safe to drink and food is safe to eat
And Mother Earth doesn’t die a little bit each day
…Someday …Someday

– CHORUS 1 –

– CHORUS 2 –
Someday can’t come soon enough- in fact it’s overdue
It won’t get better by itself, it’s up to me and you
If we help the world to finally find its’ way
Someday could be today
…Today …Today …Today …Today

Music can change the world because it touches hearts.
