sunflowers
In the back of my mind
There’s a field of sunflowers
Stretching near and far
As my eye can see
And I am capable still
In some far off memory
Of running through my past
And my childhood dreams
One ray of light, one golden dawn
One childhood memory lingers on
On and on
Fishing by the river
A growing country boy
Summer stole the hours
I’d left behind in school
There I found an angel
Closing down the sunset
Threading daisy chains with buttercups
And gathering the wool
One ray of light, one golden dawn
One childhood memory lingers on
On and on
Everyday we’d wander through
The meadow grass the morning dew
The sunflower fields would mark
Our journeys end
In the furrows and in the dirt
She lost her wings and I lost my shirt
And innocence became an absent friend
One ray of light, one golden dawn
One childhood memory lingers on
On and on

Kerosene
No one really likes goodbyes
Letting go can be so hard
No matter how I try
It always catches me off guard
There’s a stain I just can’t get clean
And it burns like kerosene
That look I mistook for desire
Fed a hunger in my soul
Now I don’t mind playing with fire
But this is getting out of control
The flames are high as I have ever seen
And they burn like kerosene
Keep away behind the line
You burned me one too many times
Some like it hot but
This has gone too far
The kerosene drips from the can
And glistens just like honey
On your hands
Your shaking hands
Keep away
The flames are gone and the air is clean
But your words still burn
Like kerosene

Once Upon A Time
There’re so many stories we could tell
Of how we chased the dream and broke the spell
Chasing satellites and shooting stars
They shone so bright and caught our hearts
One upon a time, once upon a time
Once upon a time
Journeys made with wanderlust and dreams
The good the bad and all the in between
Aiming high we had a plan
To touch the sky the promised land
Once upon a time, once upon a time
Once upon a time
And when the sky turned blue
I knew my happy ever after
Would be with you
Once upon a time, once upon a time
Once upon a time
