Manhattan’s Mist

Play me something

That can tie the hands of time

This place gets me

What I always knew was mine

 

Scenes and skyline

Covered in Manhattan's Mist

Currents crossing

Stir the life I can't resist

 

Floors have started glowing, we don't have to hurry

Basie keeps on turning, tell another story

Some will soon retire, let them have the glory

It's easy letting go of what it is to worry

 

You pour

We taste

And let the earth spin us around

She can

Still show

Not everything is upside down

 

When you wake up tomorrow

Don't forget what this was all about

If you go out and borrow

Rest on what you know now

 

Floors have started glowing, we don't have to hurry

Basie keeps on turning, tell another story

Some will soon retire, let them have the glory

It's easy letting go of what it is to worry

 

With you

I don't have to worry

With you

We don't have to hurry

 

If you go out and borrow

When you wake up tomorrow

 
 
Make It Forever Artwork [Final].png
 

Make It Forever

One in a million

Only you there and then

Down the hall of my vision

Waiting like a song in silhouette

And when we finally spoke

The words between were sparks over the smoke

We said goodbye

And then I walked away wishing I could say

If I could treat you to a night in Rome

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

Or keep it classic, out of sight at home

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

All I can think of

Is yesterday as years away

And the sign of a true love

Made of what we want but cannot name

I try but never rest

The way I do whenever you say yes

Stay right beside

And I will work all day just to hear you say

If I could treat you to a night in Rome

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

Or keep it classic, out of sight at home

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

If I could take you to a sold-out show

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

Or keep it quiet for a turn at home

I’d make it forever, I’d make it forever

 
 
Spotlight On You [Artwork Border].jpg
 

Spotlight

Crazy dreams

Tend to forgive

Hearts on sleeves

Easy to kiss


Light falls in like a lover

Don’t I know you from somewhere


Time to go, picture show

You’ve got a spotlight on you

You’ve got a spotlight on you

Make believe made to see

You’ve got a spotlight on you

Spotlight on you



‘Cause it’s a stolen summer

Another passing wonder

It starts and then it’s over

I’ll never know another


Time to play the genius

Time to fall to pieces

Time to find a reason

Time to get to Eden

Awake Dream

Downbeats and day gourmet

Chelseas and marble shoes

Racing to stand the rain

Under a collage by you

Maybe I go too high

Baby, let’s stay outside


Everyday the clouds caress the blue

In between eternity and you

And if the sun don’t shine

Can’t nobody tell me otherwise

Everywhere I run with you lately

I’m living an awake dream


Posters of glam gone by

Pass us in black and silver

Don’t say that it’s a crime

We are and then we were, I get it

Perfume burns only a while but it fills

The room where we stay up late and we take

Our tune to a love supreme and to it

I dance with you


Baby, let’s stay outside


Everyday the clouds caress the blue

In between eternity and you

And if the sun don’t shine

Can’t nobody tell me otherwise

Everywhere I run with you lately

I’m living an awake dream

Cheers to nothing new

In between eternity and you

Whispers in disguise

Can’t nobody tell me otherwise

Everywhere I run with you lately

I’m living an awake dream

Flashes

Can we catch a fire

Before it flies

Do we leave each other

Or get read our rights

 

Wait with me

Sweeten these

Flashes

 

Climb up to the garden

Just to see

Nothing can be something

When it’s free

There’s a cup without a brim

Take it like an honest kiss

Wait with me

Sweeten these


I know, I know how summer goes

One-off, the way she plays the shows

I know, I know I’ve got to go

I’ll take the grape and leave the gold

 

Wait with me

Sweeten these

And concede

When we see

Flashes

U Me 2

Capture vaguely

Stick with shapely

Travel lightly

Contra slightly

 

Say where you're going

Take me with you

Hey the way you

Make me love you

 

Never second

Bite the lemon

Sticky ruby

Diamond Lucy

 

Say where you're going

Take me with you

Hey the way you

Make me love you

 

All this is all u me 2

All this is all u me 2

October Hill

Take me out where my invention

Leads a second life

Down the heart of town

Where everybody celebrates

 

Look how he dance the diamond

Look how he flip that stick

Look how that flame can paint you

Straight out of

 

October Hill

 

The dream is just a game

The dream is just a game

The dream is just a game

Good eyes get

And players play it

Alright

Caught in the morning Vitamix

Life on the highway parade

Too many numbers on the list

Poses and post all look the same

 

Ooh, Ooh, Ooh

It's alright, It's alright

 

Faces and places come and go

Always a new game to learn

Roses are born under the snow

Get through the chapter then turn

Who says you gotta be so city

Who says you gotta lose

Your baby anyway

Who says you gotta be so city

Who says you gotta lose

Your baby anyway

Wait, wait, wait, wait

Then steal your bases

Wait, wait, wait, wait

Then steal your bases

 

Ooh, Ooh, Ooh

It's alright

Red Paloma

Say your name so I can hear it twice

In the room where everybody's in disguise

But don't fly away so soon

It's not easy chasing sunsets when they're new

 

Show me color, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Take my cover, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

 

The daylight doesn't warm you in the snow

'Cause you say it takes forever to let go

You're a traveler from June

I'm a dreamer fighting traffic to get to you

 

Show me color, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Take my cover, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

High as you can

And below when you land

Show me color, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

 

Your shadow paints my wall and then

I turn around to touch you

It's colder when you leave again

This ground is slow to get through

Your shadow paints my wall and then

I turn around to touch you

 

Show me color, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Take my cover, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

High as you can

And below when you land

Show me color, red paloma

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Holiday Home Sweet Home

When I was young I used to count the days

To waking upright after Rudolph came

That morning magic wrapped and tied with bows

Was holiday home sweet home

When I got older waiting was as new

As my vintage Santa with a missing boot

But somehow St. Nick knows memories aren’t made of gold

They’re holiday home sweet home

Let’s make a list of all the friends we know

We’ll celebrate a Christmas come and go

Come rain or shine or even better, snow

Every window on this house will glow


Circles of glass full of sprinkles

Pictures from our first year

Are the songs and the sweet memories

Shining on your cotton candy Christmas tree

Today I spend my summer flying miles

From Costa Rica to the British Isles

But in December I make sure to go

Holiday home sweet home

Holiday home sweet home

Sweet home

Home, sweet home

Home, sweet home

Home, sweet home

Holiday home sweet home

 

Cotton Candy Christmas Tree

Silver and snow dotted branches

Decked in the latest theme

They all make for a sparkling scene

But I’ll take your cotton candy Christmas tree


Miniature lights and flamingos

Perfectly pastel glow

And the icicles painted at home

Make a splendid cotton candy Christmas tree


After we mix and match the trim we’ll begin

Hangin’ up boughs and rockin’ around

With Bing and Brenda



Circles of glass full of sprinkles

Pictures from our first year

Are the songs and the sweet memories

Shining on your cotton candy Christmas tree


After we mix and match the trim we’ll begin

Hangin’ up boughs and rockin’ around

Like Bing and Brenda


So silver and snow bijou branches

Make for the latest thing

But I know that bells will ring

When it’s time to start the season

With a star that hits the ceiling

On your perfectly picture pink Christmas tree

 

Waiting For This Christmas

Lights and simple treasures

Welcomed every year

An evergreen that steals the scene

And the joy when we’re

Waiting for this Christmas

 

Cards of gold and glitter

Wishes young and old

A story read, the table set

To songs that we all know

Waiting for this Christmas


I know Mr. Winter might look frightfully cold

Dark and unknown

But home is where we keep the candles burning bright

We’ll walk with them and meet with friends

To sing our silent night

And I’ll wait for that morning with


Chocolates in the windows

Time for long goodbyes

Perfumed needles on the floor

Under your surprise

Waiting for this Christmas


I know Mr. Winter might look frightfully cold

Dark and unknown

But home is where we keep the candles burning bright

We’ll walk with them and meet with friends

To sing our silent night

And I’ll wait for that morning with you


Waiting for this Christmas

Waiting for this Christmas

Waiting for this Christmas

Waiting for this Christmastime with you
