My daughter said the other day I’m glad my father ran away So we could find relationship Without my mother ruining it

The journey is far, you guess And possibly arduous You just couldn’t care less ‘Cause the prize is worth the test

We chose a path Not like the rest It took a strength That can’t be matched But since we have

Wish I was a shepherd With a flock of sheep Sitting on a hillside Grass beneath my feet Watching over loved ones

Sittin’ in a patio chair Breathin’ in the cool night air Listening to the breeze Rustling leaves in trees I’m being the love of life

I stood amongst the rain and trees And opened up my heart to thee To breath your essence in my lungs Is hear the chords of love be stru…

I am a simple, joyful man Without a thing you’d call a plan I bounce around and bump into What I would call my Katmandu

Told you that we’d last forever Told you that we’d always be Told you we could count on never How could I be so naive Only those that want a tether

We ate from The Tree Of Knowledge, Good and Evil No higher steeple

You say this I say that We are caught in a rat trap Take a breath Step it back

You ever dream That we could have A love so great A smooth so salve It’s in the cards

I write poetry Put my heart into it ‘Cause there just might be Someone that gives a shit

My heart tells me That you’re no good I’m pretty sure That’s why I should I’ve never been

I’ve driven self along my quest I think it might be time for rest To take steps back and then assess What it might mean to be my best

I have no tricks. I have no sleeves. I have only me. And that’s enough.
