1. Better With You SINGLE

I didn’t know, what I was doing’

what you were feeling, and when did we know?

I recall a crowded smoky room,

and you and me had had enough of the fumes.

Better with you Honey for the things that we’ll never regret.

Better with you Honey as we did the things we’ll never forget.

Better with you. Better with you. Better with you. Better with you. Always.

IT’S SO GOOD TO BE TOGETHER.

You didn’t show, so then my heart was aching,

where did you go? You seemed lost for sure,

but I recalled the bar you took me in,

and there you were standing with your gin-soaked friends.

Better with you Babe before the booze got you out of your head.

Better with you honey for the things that we’ll never regret.

Better with you. Better with you. Better with you. Better with you. Always.

IT’S SO GOOD TO BE TOGETHER.

IT’S SO GOOD TO BE TOGETHER…

2. Just Like You SINGLE

I don’t know why, I see the birds up in a blue sky but I do. I don’t know why, you say you love me in the way you say you do.

But I know why I love, Yes I know why my Love
Why? It’s all because of human beings just like you. Just like you. Why? It’s all because of human beings just like you. Just like you.

What do I spy? the hidden evil that is lying takes you to. Why do I cry? when I tremble at loving kindness shining through.
But I know why I love, Yes I know why my Love

Why? It’s all because of human beings just like you. Just like you. Why? It’s all because of human beings just like you. Just like you.

But I know why I love, (because of you). But I know why I love, (because of you).

Why? Just like you. Why? It’s all because of human beings just like you. Just like you…

3. Let Your Hair Down

Baby you know, more than you show, come on over and be with me you’re someone I’d like to get to know.
See how it shines, long wavy and fine. Plenty of love is here on show, all to make you mine.

Let your hair down. Let your hair down. Let your hair down.

Rolling fingers through your hair. Any way you wanna do.

I just wanna get close to you.
Let your hair down. Let your hair down…

Any way you win, let me come back in. Sweet talking finds a way so let the fun begin.

Let your hair down. Let your hair down. Let your hair down.

Rolling fingers through your hair. Any way you wanna do.
I just wanna get close to you.
Let your hair down. Let your hair down…

4. Shades 22 SINGLE

Shades on a rainy day. Bittersweet falling. Still, I’ll hit the beach today. My memory is calling.

Shades on a rainy day. I’m playing like the sun is shining. Shades on a rainy day, my game, my life is hiding.

My life is hiding. Hiding.

Shades on a rainy day. Bittersweet falling. Still, I’ll hit the beach today. My memory is calling.

Shades on a rainy day. I’m playing like the sun is shining. Shades on a rainy day, my game, my life is hiding.

My life is hiding. Hiding. My life is hiding. Hiding…

5. It Wouldn't Be Me SINGLE

I dream about her much, and her tender touch.
Yet my friends keep telling me, Let her go let her go let her go let her go her own way. Let her go let her go let her go let her go her own way.

But I just can’t let it be. To give up now just wouldn’t be me.

She lives outside of town and she ain’t around,
oh I wish that she could be. To let her know let her know let her know that I care for her so.
Let her know let her know let her know I’m in love with her so.

And if I can help her see. To give up now just wouldn’t be me.

I know she cares, but I know she’s scared
of what she used to be.

Let her know let her know let her know she’s a wonderful girl.
Let her know let her know let her know what a wonderful girl.

I hope you’ll trust in me. To give up now just wouldn’t be me.

6. Never Be Gone

She said kiss you all, sends you her love. May the pain in her heart, soon be gone. She’ll miss you all, high on above. And now we must start…

To learn to love. Without Her. Without Her. Thrust in the Rainbows of Time, she will never be gone.
Never be gone. Trust in The Rainbows of Time She will never be gone

What are we worth, some say a lot. Some others will say we are lost and the Earth a mere dot.
But I thank you all, for all we have done. She’d like to end it by saying…

She will never be gone. Never be gone. Never be gone. Thrust in the Rainbows of Time, she will never be gone.
Never be gone. Trust in the rainbows of time she will never be gone.

Trust in the rainbows of time she will never be gone…

8. Slapbang

You were slap bang in the middle of love, you made your rap bang with your sleeves pulled up.

Doo doo doo. Doo doo doo. Slapbang. Doo doo doo.

Never before have I seen. Someone who could be such a dream in a dreary old world.
Slapbang. Slapbang.

And so I’m slap bang in the middle of love, you made the rap bang when the juice was dried up,

Doo doo doo. Doo doo doo. Slapbang. Doo doo doo.

Never thought someone could be, as sweet and as lovely as you in a cynical world. Slapbang. Slapbang…

Now I’m slap bang in the middle of love. Slap bang in the middle of love. Slap bang in the middle of love…

12. Earth In A Lonely Space

We’re Earth in a lonely space. Too far to say hello, And ever expanding. Earth in a lonely space. There’s more to explore on the inside, Instead of running off And ruining the outside.

Until a new World has dawned This is all we have, And I can’t say much more, Much brighter than that.

So look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at your heavy load And try to make it lighter. Ah oh…

Earth is a lonely place. Lost from who you know, And love’s understanding. Earth is a lonely space. Hurting and burning on the inside, While being perfectly normal On the outside.

Until a new day has dawned This is all we have, And I can’t say much more, much brighter than that.

So look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at what you have And try to make it brighter Look at your heavy load And try to make it lighter. Ah oh…
Look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at what you have And try to make it brighter, Look at your heavy load And try to make it lighter. Ah oh…
