Light Travelling Man

You might think I’m talking I’ve not said a word My passport’s been stamped My visa secured I’m standing here waiting First one in line The only place for A light trav’ling man In this twenty-first round   I’ve signed all my papers I’ve had all my tests The results were not bad Not the […]

Cast My Twisted Ways

I once loved a girl With a captivating name But hey, You don’t need to know her name I met her one strange time When my heart was spinning round And luck was playing a wicked game And I love her She brightens my day with her night Yes I love her She brightens my […]

I love your face in this half light At the back of the room when it’s Late at night The way the spark pirouettes through your eyes When you catch me watching And you start to smile Down we go Down we go Oh down we go To the water The water and light I […]

The Night
