I called him Lieutenant Dan Purple Heart from Vietnam Agent orange took his left arm Always first on his feet Singin’ “O say can you see” His right hand pressed to his heart And he’d say - Life is learned with blood and sweat Kindness is earned just like respect Grandpa’s quartet was blood, sweat kindness and respect Loved to sing Amazin’ Grace Ev’ry mornin’ at daybreak From his church, his tractor seat Nine o’clock was his bedtime He’d tell grandma we’re all fine Right before he’d fall asleep Life is learned with blood and sweat Kindness is earned just like respect Grandpa’s quartet was blood, sweat kindness and respect I won’t forget all he taught me But laugh how he sang so off key Life is learned with blood and sweat Kindness is earned just like respect Grandpa’s quartet he sang till the Lord said rest With blood, sweat, kindness and respect Blood, sweat, kindness and respect

Engrave My Heart The pain left no clues What I should do When the life that I knew was gone My world torn in two I came to you For a reason for me to go on You knew exactly what to say, you healed the ache with love You filled that empty hole with hope, you're part of me because There was a gift in what you said All my life, I'll hear it again "You're beautiful, you're strong, and you're enough Remember most of all that you are loved" Replace my scars - engrave my heart You've been there for me So faithfully Someone like you's a rare find You helped me believe What I couldn't see I'm so grateful that you're in my life You gave me something to remind me I’m forever blessed When life is hard, I’ll think of you, my palm against my chest Chorus If you ever come to me, pain on your bravest face I'll repeat your words to you, as my fingers gently trace "You're beautiful, you're strong, and you're enough Remember most of all that you are loved" The promise that you engraved upon my heart Copyright, Kevin W. Kenney

I’m going to make the most of this. I’m going to cherish every kiss. I’m gonna Buy you every gift that I can afford. Because Maybe someday. I’m not gonna be your boyfriend anymore I’m going to try to make you laugh. I’l even try to like the Cat I’m gonna sweep, mop, chop the logs, feed the dogs And even take my boots off on the porch cause maybe someday I won’t be your boyfriend anymore I can just see it now. Standing on Hawaii Shore. If I could speed up time somehow to make sure I’m forever yours I dream of 20 years from now holding your hand and sitting out on our porch. When I won’t just be your boyfriend anymore I think it sounds like a plan Babe I’ve never been this sure. I don’t have a clue what my future holds I Just want to be in yours There’s nothing that can stop us now, go ahead and tell the world I’m just glad you took a chance on me, nothing in the past to grieve the only way is forward. Because someday, someday I won’t be your boyfriend anymore. I can just see it now.White dress hanging off yer shoulders. Smiling walking down the aisle Friends are all applaudin for us. I dream of 30 years from now holding your hand and sitting out on that wraparound porch. Some day When I won’t just be your boyfriend anymore I grasp my composure and I’m bad at proposals but there you go wearing my ring. And I’m not gonna make this a big ole performance Id rather get down on one knee just you and me. I’m going to make the most of this. I’m going to cherish every kiss. I’m gonna Buy you every gift that I can afford. Because Maybe someday. I’m not gonna be your boyfriend anymore

Music: Rob Friedland, BMI Lyrics: Carrie Croteau, BMI V1 In the hospital room You sit and you stare Holding her hand You repeat your prayer You pray that she'll make it  Through one more night That somehow She'll find the will to fight PC1 But even as the hours Stretch on into days A seed of light lives in the haze C1 The sun, it will come up again To find you sitting With a friend V2 And you'll never see them But they're there You won’t feel them As they stare But up among the cobwebs In the far corner of the room There sits a being of love and light PC2 And all will be right soon In hospitals, they come and they go C2 Harbingers of the ebb and flow Their love paves the way To help us leave or help us stay Bridge: You may not feel them kiss your brow But you’ll know you’ve been touched somehow Ask a newborn baby Or ask a dying soul Take a look into their eyes And you'll see they know Outside the steaming towers blow The birds they scream, the life you know And in your mind the world seems cold You doubt yourself and the faith you hold The faith you hold... V3 But shift your gaze And look to the right It must've been a trick of the light PC3 Have you gone mad Or did you see A flash of some sweet divinity? C3 Harbingers of the ebb and flow Their love paves the way To help us leave or help us stay Harbingers of the ebb and flow Their love paves the way To help us leave or help us stay (c) 2021 Rob Friedland, Carrie Croteau

V1: I don't hold you to blame And you know it's not a game, not a game I just want everyone To feel the same As far as I'm concerned I still have Lots to learn, lots to learn I just want everyone To feel the burn CH: Whether it's you Whether it's me Someone's got to change the world Make it all new Make it all free Find yourself a reason to believe But love Is all We need V2: You might not understand But I'm no holy man, holy man I just want everyone To hold my hand I can lay out on the street A loving carpet for your feet, for your feet I just want everyone To be complete CH: Whether it's You Whether it's me Someone's got to change the world Make it all new And make it all free Find yourself a reason to believe But, love Is all We need

A wise man once wrote a song that said no matter what true love will save the day There’s no one else who can do what you do, And make me feel like I’m king of your world You pick me up, when I’m feeling the blues And tell me that our love’s forever too Yes you do Doesn’t matter what our love goes through, You stand true The only thing that matters is you We’ve been through ups and we’ve been through downs, But you’ve stood by me, through and through You keep me calm when there’s chaos in view My guiding light who shines so bright, it’s you Yes it’s you Doesn't matter what our love goes through, You stand true The only thing that matters is you The future’s bright when I look in your eyes I know together we’re invincible Those lifelong goals that I want to pursue I know I’ll smash with love and drive from you Yes, from you Doesn’t matter what our love goes through, You stand true The only thing that matters is you Simply you Doesn’t matter what our love goes through You stand true The only thing that matters is you A wise man once wrote a song that said no matter what true love will save the day

Here I Am Verse: My first word wasn't daddy, You weren't around, After the divorce, You moved to another town, I used to always wonder, Did I do something bad, 'Cause there's supposed to be a bond, Between a boy and his dad Chorus: Here I am with a family of my own, I've got it all, You live alone, But if you wanna be a dad, To the boy inside this man, Here I am. Verse: You used to call on birthdays, Sent a baseball glove, Didn't teach me how to throw, And missed my first home run, Wish you would’ a been there, To see me swing that bat, 'Cause there's supposed to be a bond, Between a boy and his dad. Chorus: (repeat) ½ verse 3: Showed my son your picture, His faced turned kind'a sad, 'Cause there's supposed to be a bond, Between a boy and his granddad. Chorus: (repeat) Adlib: Here I am, Here I am. Copyright secured by James Leo Oliver, Quint Randle & Jeff Hinton

The Day Jimmy Buffet Died On a Key West beach under the stars where the sun don’t shine Drinking margaritas in the shade with some friends of mine Singing Eulogies for the ones who are still alive on the day that Jimmy Buffet died we were down by the rushes in the light of the august moon dancing away till the dawn it always comes too soon getting cozy with my love to the sound of the rising tide on the day Jimmy Buffet died On the day Jimmy Buffet died we all got together and we sang and we drank and we cried standing on the water watching all the parrots fly away, On the Day that Jimmy Buffet died my father was a sailor and his dad too he used to say the best times, are the times when there's nothing to do standing on the water watching as the parrots flew away, on the day that Jimmy Buffet died time to face the music baby don’t you love the sound he was smiling like a china town chicken when the sun went down got to admit we were more then just a little surprised on the Day Jimmy Buffet died On the day Jimmy Buffet died we all got together and we sang and we drank and we cried standing on the water watching all the parrots fly away, on the day, on the day, Jimmy Buffet died

1. Was a little down on my luck Hopin' I could make a buck A lonely drifter gettin' through another day That's when I saw her from far away And brother I'll have to say Had to get to know The Big Sky of Montana 2. I was slow to settle in Had to tell her where I'd been Wasn't sure how long I could stay Then she wrapped her kindness all over me My eyes were opened, and I could see And then I fell for The Big Sky of Montana instrumental 3. The love she showed me took me by surprise I had to tell her I couldn't lie There was something that just wouldn't let me be A part of me was in another place That's the last time i saw her face When I said goodbye to The Big Sky of Montana And I said goodbye to The Big Sky of Montana

Smile I offered you my coat that day When I saw you standing in the rain You sighed and whispered you’re too kind I just said, you’re welcome, and smiled I wondered why you looked so sad You said you were thinking of your dad He’d passed a little while ago I just said, I’m sorry, and smiled A simple kindness goes a long, long way It can lighten up the darkest day We rise by lifting others high A smile can take away a sigh A warming sun broke out just then The rain stopped and all was bright again We chatted for a little while Then I said, goodbye, and you smiled A simple kindness goes a long, long way It can lighten up the darkest day We rise by lifting others high A smile can take away a sigh An AI generated demo accompanies my lyrics.

I wish you the world I wish you all of the things that could give your life meaning The prayers that you whisper, the dreams that you’re dreaming You know I’ll believe you when others are calling your bluff. I’ll be by your side A shoulder to lean on when your body is aching To know what to say when your heart feels it’s breakin' Yes, even those times when words are never enough. [Chorus] I got hope like a river Like a big river rolling, It’s winding and growing, Hope like a river And a heart over-flowing for you. We’ve come a long way Through good times and bad times, whatever the cost I smile to remember the bridges we’ve crossed And any regrets seem to vanish and just fade away We’ve laughed and we’ve cried Your crazy schemes and my grandiose plans You're the salt to my pepper and the Yin to my Yang Whatever we’ve done they can’t tell us that we never tried. [Chorus] I got hope like a river Like a big river rolling, It’s winding and growing, Hope like a river And a heart over-flowing for you. [Break] [Bridge] May come a time when I’m no longer near you Surely a time when our paths must divide Simply remember this touchstone I give you And carry the love deep inside. Know I wish you the world I want to share all the things that will give your life meaning Want to help you to build all the dreams that you’re dreaming Believe and trust In the depth of my love I wish you the world I wish you all of the things that could give your life meaning The prayers that you whisper, the dreams that you’re dreaming You know I’ll believe you when others are calling your bluff. I’ll be by your side A shoulder to lean on when your body is aching To know what to say when your heart feels it’s breakin' Yes, even those times when words are never enough. [Chorus - fade out] I got hope like a river Like a big river rolling, It’s winding and growing, Hope like a river

Yikers Bikers! by Julian Harvey I own a small saloon Some bikers came at noon Their bikes blocked the door I got sore They didn’t drink a drop Of beer or soda pop They just stood and stared So I declared: Yikers Bikers!, get outta here Rev up those bikes and disappear You’ll tank my business don’t ya see Go away and let me be The next day many more Bikes blocked the door I didn’t have a clue What to do The biker boss appeared A biker to be feared He had at his side My sister starry eyed! Yikers Bikers!, answer me this What ya doin’ with my little sis? Give a listen, listen good Ride those bikes right out the ‘hood The boss said don’t get all hot Your sis and me are tyin' the knot!

Love is a rose You recognized me through the thorns kept me safe from all the storms By your side, nothing can go wrong In our garden love grows strong Here is where my heart belongs The sky and world are brighter When you're here with me As the day, breaks anew Love blooms for me and you When it’s dark, and you feel blue the mystery unfolds Then your heart knows Love is a rose Petals falling as we kiss Never knew a love like this A tender romance you share with me In your arms I find my peace You give me joy that never leaves The sky and world are brighter When you're here with me As the day, breaks anew Love blooms for me and you When it’s dark, and you feel blue the mystery unfolds Then your heart knows Love is a rose Come go with me To ecstasy A bed of roses to lay with me To feel you close Our passion grows Love is a rose As the day, breaks anew Love blooms for me and you When it’s dark, and you feel blue the mystery unfolds Then your heart knows Love is a rose
