Love Has Crucified Me
Love has crucified me,
My heart wants me to stay,
I can’t walk away from,
The vision of you I pray,
Love won’t let me fly,
My wings they have no life,
Love has crucified me,
And it cuts me like a knife,
I am lying on a road of emotion,
Rolling down a hill of sorrow,
Crashed into a wall of despair,
Riding on a highway to no tomorrow,
I am stuck in a dead end street,
Looking for a gui...

Amy - She Gone
The sun was shining brightly
On Saturday July 23
I was listening to my radio
When the news was broken to me
Her time on this earth was ended
Surely lord above it cannot be
It's all gone so wrong
Amy - She gone
The girl with the voice so pure
Dead at the tender age of 27
She is flying high in the sky
Destination a place called heaven
She lived her life to th...

April Storm
I look out of my tearful window at an angry sky
The day is lost and being consumed by the night
The rain lashes down eating up the pavements
People run for cover in a sodden fright
A torpedo of lightning bullets the heavens
As an explosion of thunder rattles through the clouds
The wind whips up the storm into a murderous frenzy
As the the blackened sky resembles a corpse li...

I Wasn't Expecting Spring
The frosted pavements sparkled like diamonds
I was lost in the winter of my discontent
My rattling old bones chilled by the cold
Sad unhappy faces everywhere that I went
There’s a message painted across the sky
A wind of change blows knowingly in the air
The seasons they come and go for a reason
Does anyone on the planet even really care?
What on earth will the future bring...

Stolen Heart
I was lost in a desert of disappointment
Drowning in a stormy sea of sorrow
But then you came along and rescued me
Now I have got a brand new tomorrow
I bask in the eternal sunshine of your soul
As I float on a cloud in a clear blue sky
Warm inside despite the winter chill
Remembering the day when you caught my eye
You have taken me to a wondrous place
An oasis of happiness, laughte...

No More Tears
I have got no more tears left to cry
No more pain for my soul to bear
No more strength to carry on
Just a broken heart needing repair
A head full of memories
And a never ending despair
On a forsaken planet I dwell
I am not alone all the people say
Just soldier on and time will heal
You will find peace one fine day
How long must I wait for resolution
Give me a sign show me the way

Smiling Eyes
I caught my first glimpse of her
As she glided majestically across the floor
She moved and swayed to the rhythm of a salsa beat
I plucked up the courage and asked her to dance
She rose to her feet and put me in a trance
As our fingers touched She threw me a glance
Then we entwined in a Latin embrace
I felt so alive - which came as no surprise
My heart began to pound - and made me realise...

Coffee Mate
She wrinkled her cute americano nose
And gazed at me with dreamy espresso eyes,
I winked at her freshly ground and finely blended,
She flashed me a cappuccino smile to my surprise,
I’m a charming Irish coffee in high spirits
Her skin was like a cafe latte and silky smooth,
I may only be a dark and mysterious hot shot
But I’m full of beans and ready to make my move,
She has...

Hello Today
Hello today what you got in store
Hello today I don't want anymore
Hello today can you feel my pain
Hello today will I smile again
The world is crumbling around us
The planet is in a almighty mess
War is raging in many locations
What the future holds is anybodies guess
Murder mayhem and destruction
History repeating itself some may say
Things can't get any worse we hope
Better get on...

New World
With a head full of clouds
And tears that fall like rain
I gaze at the distant forbidding horizon
Wondering if the sun will shine on me once again
The days seem to last forever
And the nights they never end
Memories of you constantly surroud me
You were my lover and my best friend
My heart is shattered and broken
My soul is in a place of sadness
I speak to you but you don't reply

Christmas Smile
I miss your Christmas Smile
I miss you all the while
Your eyes they sparkled with festive love
Now your star shines down on me from heaven above
You always celebrated in true seasonal style
I miss your Christmas Smile
Tactile and loving you covered me in kisses
I miss your Christmas Smile
Along the snowy streets and avenues I roam
Welcoming windows shine brightly and excite

Gloucester Avenue
Take me down to Gloucester Avenue
Where my journey will begin to beat the blues
A place where I am treated with respect
Where I can chill out relax and reflect
I have a home at Gloucester Avenue
It's a peaceful haven where people really care
There is much work on me that I need to do
I get honesty and dignity beyond compare
The latest news is that it is closing down
A vital lifeline of...

Wembley Heroes
We are the Morecambe
The Shrimps to you
We are heading to Wembley
With a job to do
Our opponents are Newport County AFC
And they stand in our way
We have a mountain to climb
But the dream is still alive okay
It's the play off final yes indeed
A positive result is what we need
The game is on and we come alive
Ninety crazy minutes will we survive
The clock ticks down the time has gone

Ron Hill - Born to Run
There's a little town in Lancashire they call Accrington
The birthplace of a legend and a sportsman elite
He set records year on year as he ran like the wind
He pushed himself to the limit and as a competitor was hard to beat
A world record holder and a marathon man to boot
From national records to Olympic glory he brightly shone
For 52 years and 39 days without a break he hit the ground run...

Fallen Nation
Christopher Columbus was the catalyst for our decline
Followed by a swarming plague of European greed
They came to divide and conquer and take our lands
Seen as savages of their knowledge we had no need
For generations we loved and lived at peace with nature
The buffalo roamed free and the rivers teemed with life
We had a deep connection and respect with the earth
Then the pale face wh...

May
May I have been waiting for you to shine your light on me
May you surround me with love and set me free
May now the flowers are blooming I can see my destiny
May you have taken me to a place of pure ecstasy
Lily of the valley your fragrance is truly sweet and divine
Emerald green engulf me whole just one more time
Take me on a journey that leads to summer days

The Duke and Me
Way back in the distant mists of time
The nineteen eighties as I remember
I was working at the Dorchester hotel
On the banquet bar in late December
It was a black tie corporate affair
Guest of honour was the Duke indeed
In the crystal room I manned the VIP bar
Catering to our distinguished guests needs
My instructions were to prepare a tray
With a selection of drinks...

St Patrick's Day - Shanty
It’s March the 17th and the drink is flowing
Irish eyes are smiling and their faces are glowing
The music is playing and a party we’re throwing
Happy St Patricks Day - Hey
My parents made a journey to start a new beginning
I was born in London town when the sixties were swinging
There was discrimination and racism was rife
No black’s dogs or Irish read the signs that’s li...

International Women's Day - 2021
March the 8th 2021 is the date on the wall
A day of celebration to honour them one and all
International Women’s Day a time to duly reflect
For the women in your life and show due respect
It could be your loving mother so dear
That gave you the ultimate gift of life to revere
A wife or partner who guides you along the way
Through a world of trouble and strife day by day

Twilight Run
At eight on the dot out of the house I trot.
Destination the coast and the Irish sea
The air is fresh cool crisp and invigorating
The promenade bids a chilly welcome to me
I was born to run and the twilight beckons
With fleet of foot energetically out I stride
The sky looms dark broody and angry
I have the tempestuous sea by my side
Crashing foam crested waves hound me

2021 - Bring It On
On planet earth the new year is welcomed in its 2021
It just arrived meekly and quietly well I’ll be a son of a gun
No jubilant crowds watching fireworks it’s just been done
I just wanted to celebrate and have some annual fun
There’s nowhere to hide now you got me on the run
You truly took me by surprise hello 2021
We said our last goodbyes to 2020 farewell ya man

It's Christmas (Soul) Time
One hell of a year it’s been and man I was feeling low
There have been times when on I just couldn’t go
But I am going to be strong no more time for hesitation
There’s a celebration exploding all across the nation
It’s Christmas time so let’s get this party started
Put a big smile on the faces of the broken hearted
Now’s the time to give out a little peace and love

Christmas Carole
Strolling down a festive Fishergate in a tinsel wonderland
Up in the inviting night sky I see a special star all aglow
Pointing the way to my true and final destination
My perilous journey begins once again don’t you know
I feel so very deja vous and time has suddenly rewound
Memories they come flooding back and I grieve
The season of goodwill holds me in its friendly hand
I m...

Forget Them Not
All is calm and quiet on The Western Front
The landscape is lush and full of life and colour
Hiding ghostly memories and deep scars of sorrow
Man and boy they answered the rallying call to arms
For king and country they marched off into battle
They sacrificed their today to guarantee our tomorrow
The war to end all wars was the ultimate goal
Freedom from oppression and tyranny...

Scream It's Halloween
I go by the name of Henry and I have a torrid tale to tell
The date was Saturday October 31st in the year 2020
A day I will never forget a night of pure living hell
A pretty young thing called Camilla caught my roving eye
We had dallied and danced for a couple of weeks
About time I invited her over to wine and dine oh my
The scene was set and I cooked up a delicious storm
She ...

October 10
Woke up this morning with a total war raging in my head
The calendar on the wall screamed out loud October 10
Looked out of my tearful window on a Covid-19 wasteland
Another year has passed me by, its World Mental Health Day once again
Better get my act together and put on a masked painted smile
Take my medication and fight the lonesome Autumn blues
Step out boldly into the teemi...

Tears in Tennessee
It’s been a long time since the Wichita Lineman hit the open road
By the time you get to Phoenix his soothing voice will lighten your heavy load
The shores of Galveston are a distant memory but the heartache still ensues
Then again you never forget those warm Southern Nights that give you the blues
A Country Boy from Arkansas who dreamed The Impossible Dream
He Tried a Little Kindn...
