Flying So High

Like whispers in the rain
You sweetly sing over the plains

And the mountains in reply
Echo their joyous strains

a smile worth a million charming words

Hannibal

Often we ask ourselves questions
Tales of defeats and futile attempts
Fallen heroes maybe

We scorn impossible
Mock adversity
And yet we laugh at the destitute
Celebrating in triumph
Only to be marked by downfall

And just like the rain
Are we to keep falling
Only to rise and fall back down again?

If this is of any indication
Of an invitation
To establish communication
Then I think I'll disconnect

Morning Glory

And for all the glory
She ran outside
With her shirt tucked in
And shoes untied

Dancing in the rain
Her golden steps and precious smile
She sang of celebration

A tribute to her rebirth

She had fallen in love again

Ciao

So long luckless romance
I turn my back on you

Girl leave your troubles behind

Come on come out
The weather is warm
Climb out of that rut
There's so much more on the outside

I saved you a spot in the shade
Away from it all
We could sit and watch the sky
Shifting and shaping
Like a painting coming to life

And as the clouds roll by
Girl leave your troubles behind
Come on walk out get out
You'll do just fine

One More Night

Walk me down the street
Sit me on your front porch swing
And baby sing me something sweet until I fall asleep
