The Best In Me

To tired eyes in wishful dreams
How colourful the future seems
It’s no surprise we fantasise
We duck and weave a web of lies this way, that way
But you and I are on the run
We take our time, We have our fun
We look around, the world is new
When newly opened up to view
Could this be our destiny?
You brought out the best in me today
Beyond the reach of bitter men
Their childhood places beckon them
So they organise, they moralise
They never get to smile again that way, no way
But you and I are living free
Up to the point that we can be
No time to lose, no need to doubt
No rule to rule our pleasures out
Could this be our destiny?
You brought out the best in me today
Ignore self-righteous fools who screw you down and tell you what to do
We live by different rules
You find the guide you need inside of you
Observe the face in every crowd
Too cynical to laugh out loud
Too worldly wise to realise
They hold the keys to Paradise today, well okay
But you and I are living free
Up to the point that we can be
No time to lose, no need to doubt
No rule to rule our pleasures out
Could this be our destiny?
You brought out the best in me today

The Day She Changed

I was thinking of the bad days I’d had before
Then she came through my door
Now I remember the day she changed
Here she comes and I’m all fingers and thumbs again
It’s something I can’t explain
But I remember the day she changed
That was the day she took the lead, she came to me
That was the day she entered my heart
She turned me around
Tore me apart and finally found that nothing seemed to fit
If you see me and you happen to have the time
Ask me what’s on my mind
Well I remember the day she changed
Now she’s gone, and I feel certain I can’t go on
Where did it all go wrong?
Well I remember the day she changed
I remember the day she changed

Flotsam & Jetsam

We are flotsam, we are jetsam
On the ocean drifting free
See that old wreck in the sunset?
Empty silhouette, leave it be
This is where we’re meant to be
This is where we’re meant to be
We are singing, we are swaying
We are rolling in the foam
We are drifting to an island
On that dry land we’ll find home
This is where I long to be
This is where I long to be
Where the flow ends we’ll find old friends
All the loved ones we cannot see
They are flotsam, they are jetsam
On the ocean drifting free
This is where they’re meant to be
Hold them close and set them free

Now I Know

A man may travel very far
And never notice that his star is on the wane
He may keep singing very long
And never realise that song’s been rearranged
Try as I might I cannot fight
This endless night I am resigned
It’s what you said it’s what you did
And how I wondered what lay hid in your mind
And now I know where I must go
And now I see why this must be
In a place no time or space can ever occupy
It doesn’t matter after all
If I should fly or I should fall apart and break
You see me tumble from the sky
I see that I am really falling awake
I cannot say, I can’t explain
How once again I’m feeling free
I realise my heaven lies
Deep in the eyes that look at me
In a place no time or space can ever occupy
And if I’ve been here once before
I can’t remember why it was
But darling maybe it’s because
I pushed upon an open door
And nothing seems too much
Nothing seems too small
There’s really nothing here at all
Except the meaning of your touch
