COUNT THE STARS
Gotta find a path
Gotta find a way
Gonna count the stars
Gotta live today
Took a different path
Took a different road
Where it’s gonna end
Ain’t nobody know
On another trail
Another highway
When the end will come
Nobody can say

BLINK OF AN EYE
The days stop for no one
The rain finds the sea
Just as in the old stories
What will be, will be
You will struggle with your heart
You will fight for your soul
But the days cry for no one
Forevermore the wind will blow
​
Is the glass half empty?
Is the glass half full?
Is there reason for this all?
What makes you think you could be sure?
You will bargain with your heart
You will fight for your soul
But the days cry for no one
Forevermore the wind will blow
​
Do the words that are spoken
Carry all the truth?
How many sides to each story,
Are there really only two?
You will struggle with your heart
You will fight for your soul
But the days cry for no one
Forevermore the wind will blow
​
To the dust stone will turn
To the heavens souls will fly
It’s all over, as it’s said,
In the blink of an eye
You will bargain with your heart
You will fight for your soul
But the days cry for no one
Forevermore the wind will blow

CHILD IN THE SKY
Everyone’s gone before you
You’ll follow the line
Everyone’s gone ahead
Freedom is yours
Mercy will be mine
​
A link in the chain
Be it weak or strong
A link in the chain
Short or long
Each sings a song
​
A bird in the sky
We aim for the sun
We pray to know why
Until all is done
A child in the sky
We grasp for the stars
Seeking to find
A home that is ours
​
Everyone’s gone before you
You’ll follow the line
Everyone’s gone ahead
Freedom and mercy
Will be yours and mine
​
A bird in the sky
We aim for the sun
We pray to know why
Until all is done
A child in the sky
We grasp for the stars
Seeking to find
A home that is ours

SHINE ON YELLOW MOON
There comes a time when you realize
That’s all there is, this is it
No longer blind, you see the arc of time
Sell your regrets, this is it
Shine on, shine on, shine on yellow moon
Shine on down on me
You know a true bandit steals, a true artist feels
That black night sky frame the Milky Way
And when it’s all over your heart it may break
Yet somehow arrives another day
Shine on, shine on yellow moon
Shine on down on me
Shine on, shine on, shine on yellow moon
Shine your love down on us all

SOUL OF A MAN
You might freeze in your tracks
You might fall on the sword
But it’s a hell of a ride
When the crew is all onboard
​
And it doesn’t slow down
Until late in the day
When the sun circles around
And there’s no one there to blame
The price has been paid
You’ve learned the game
Now it’s peaceful and it’s calm
You can smile at the rain
You’ll take it far as it goes
Learn whatever you can
Some say that life is just a song
Perhaps the soul of a man

ODE TO WISCONSIN
Old, cold and cranky, I was born a Yankee
Wisconsin is my happy home
I love the Packers and saltine crackers
In my soup when outside it is cold
​
Maybe someday the Brewers make the Series
But I don’t think I’ll be here for that
But when I was a boy I watched ol’ Hammerin’ Hank
Hit one right over the fence
From that big old lake to the mighty Mississippi
The most beauteous state you’ve ever seen
The skeeters sometimes crazy, but I’m a Cheesehead, baby!
You fibbers and flatlanders can kiss my…
And I’m old, cold and cranky, I was born a Yankee
Wisconsin is my happy home
I love the Packers and saltine crackers
In my soup when outside it’s cold
​
Don’t put the shovel away until the month of May
Is something that you learn as a child
Red means stop, green means go,
What yellow means, nobody knows…
Do you slow down? Speed up?
Step on the brake? Step on the gas?
Smoke a cigarette? Or order a pizza?!...
​
We’re old, cold and cranky, we were born a Yankee
Wisconsin is our happy home
We love the Packers and saltine crackers
With our cheese when outside it’s cold!

ETHEREAL
Feel it passing
Accept it all
Ethereal wind
Carves upon the earth
​
The story is timeless
As the endless sea
I become you
You become me
Escape is a dream
It’s always there
The invisible mist
Which hangs in the air
​
Around and around
Far beyond the sky
And someday
We may know why

IF’S A MIGHTY BIG WORD
If I only knew you ten years ago
If I only knew you before the wind and snow
If I only knew you then I’m sure that you’d agree
I could’ve loved you, you could’ve loved me
Goin’ down the tracks of life, ridin’ on that train
You’re gonna pass through sunshine
You’re gonna pass through rain
If you can do it, you gotta hold your head up high
If at first you don’t succeed, then again you try
If’s a mighty big word... just two letters long
Spoken about a hundred times a day
If’s a mighty big word, just two letters long
If, if, if, what more can you say?
People might use you just about every which way
But you know there comes a time
When it’s judgment day
And you know that it all
Won’t get you down
If you keep your feet firmly planted on the ground

BEST
You try your best
You try your best
That’s all that you can do
You try your best
Sometimes your best
It will see you through
Sometimes it does
Sometimes it don’t
It’s all in a point of view
You tried your best
I tried my best
That’s all that we can do
