JUST AS I THOUGHT

  PLAY

Thought I saw your car last night
Driven by some other guy
Just as my heart began to fly
It all came crashing down
Thought I felt your presence near
Felt you breathing in my ear
Just when I seemed to lose All fears
They all came back around

 CHORUS
Just as I thought you were all mine
Just as I felt forever loved
I wake alone again to find
Nothing is just as I thought

 Thought I heard your voice beside me
Saw your shape against my blind
Just as it all seemed alright
I didn't hear a sound
Thought I felt your hand in mine
The way we wanted for all time
Just when I thought it was all fine
I'm back in the lost and found

 CHORUS

All of those common place occurrences
All of the rules that we'd all love to bend
All boundaries broken all words unspoken
All of your senses left to mend

 Now I find I'm down your lane
So incensed and so insane
You know I will return again
To claim the prize evading me
So try to keep from being haunted
Learn to live thru love undaunted
Everyone got what they wanted
Everyone but me

 CHORUS

THE TORCH

  PLAY

Hear I am again with blues in my pen
And I scribble right down to the bitter end
If I were Shakespeare
It wouldn't be a finer tragedy
Blinded by the love in my eyes for you
And all the tests of fire that we went through
But now the smoke is cleared
Passions piled up on the floor

CHORUS
I can't carry this torch no more
My tears are deep and I think I'm drowning
I can't carry this torch no more...for you

The days are long the nights are endless
Circumstances victim reluctant defenseless
The candle burns at both ends
Still I curse the darkness anyway
The flood of emotion the dark and the light
They lay there and linger
Who was wrong and who was right
Still I can't help but wonder
Can't help but wonder where you are tonight

CHORUS

I've been cut from falling off of broken dreams
And the sand of times in my eyes
I won't try to tell you what it's done to me
And I can't ask you to change your mind

CHORUS
My love is tired and my heart is pounding

But the truth came down like a cold fall rain
And put out my torch...for you
