Would I
If you didn’t have your mobile phone
Now I wonder
What you would do
Would you feel so bored and alone
You might talk to
The person next to you?
Would you?
What would you do?
If we didn’t have our eyes on a screen
Now I wonder
What we would see.
Would we be amazed at the scene?
There’s a whole world in 3D!
Would we?
What would we see?
I could live my whole life with pixelated blinders on.
I can set it up to see only what I want to see.
I can share all my thoughts, show the world my photographs.
But in the end I know my profile isn’t me.
It’s not me.
And it’s no excuse for reality.
Oh no.
If I wasn’t searching the net
I wonder
What I might find.
Would I find what I haven’t yet
Like a wondrous
Peace of mind?
Would I?
What would I find?
Would I?
Suitcase Full of Money
Somewhere in my dreams
There’s a suitcase full of money.
Lying off the road where by gangsters it was thrown.
The police in pursuit
Were finally gonna catch ’em
And gun them down and leave the money’s whereabouts unknown.
And if there was a search
For the suitcase full of money,
With police and detectives using dogs to track it down,
They never caught the scent.
They scratched their heads in wonder.
And then they left the suitcase out there waiting to be found.
And if I caught the light glancing off its silver buckle
And opened it to feel the rush of blood go to my head,
Gathering my senses I’d choose a course of action
Knowing that the interested parties might be dead.
Some would say I oughtta turn the dirty money in,
But this being my dream I take a different course instead.
After walking home with the suitcase full of money,
I lay it on the floor and slide it underneath the bed.
Now and then I reach
For the suitcase full of money
To pay a couple bills, but I never change my style.
And when they are in need
I help my friends and neighbors.
And now and then i buy some things to make my true love smile.
Somewhere in my dreams
There’s a suitcase full of money,
Lying off the road for some lucky fool to find.
But if your luck’s like mine
You’ve never seen that suitcase,
Except for when you close your eyes and see it in your mind.
Revolving Around You
Clock radio’s on
Sun comes through the blinds
Looks like dawn
We left the night behind
Can’t believe what we did last night
I can’t believe it felt so right
Through the window pane
Baby ain’t it strange
The world looks the same
But everything has changed
Can’t believe it’s just another day
I can’t believe we could feel this way
I remember what we did
I remember what we said
All these memories are swimming around my head
You remember what we felt
Baby you were right there too
All these memories are revolving around you
Behind the wheel
And through the traffic light
Still I feel
You holding me so tight
I never dreamed of a love so fine
I can’t believe you could be all mine
I remember what we did
I remember what we said
All these memories are swimming around my head
You remember what we felt
Baby you were right there too
All these memories are revolving around you
It’s like you’re there
When I close my eyes
You’re the star of my own private movie
And I can’t wait
To see you with these eyes wide open
Baby, what are you doing to me?
I can’t believe what’s just begun
I never dreamed I’d find the one
I remember what we did
I remember what we said
All these memories are swimming around my head
You remember what we felt
Baby you were right there too
All these memories are revolving around you
It’s like I’m there in your own private movie
Scenario
Lookin’ out the window
Thinkin’ ’bout tomorrow
There’s so much we don’t know
It’s freakin’ me out
Pieces of the puzzle
Lost in the shuffle
The dice are gonna tumble
We’re rolling them out
Ain’t no way to know where
They’re gonna land
No way to control them
They’re out of my hands so
Let them go where they may
Let them say what they will say
You and I will find our way
Remember where we come from
Before we got some
how far we have come
If they could see us now
Even if we got spun
Right back to square one
Knowing what we have done
We could make it somehow
So I’m not gonna worry
‘Bout things we can’t control
Some things you can’t hurry
Just let events unfold
Let them go where they may
Let them say what they will say
You and I will find our way
And if it all falls apart then
We’ll pick up the pieces and start again
And if it all falls into place
Celebrate with me baby,’cause that’s the best case
