About Me

DADDY'S TUNE-Jackson Browne-A dirty wind blows through the sky And the autumn leaves cut loose and fly Leave me watching And wishing I could follow Though among the regrets that I can't get by There are just one or two Unkind things I said to you Daddy what was I supposed to do? I don't know why it was so hard to talk to you I guess my anger pulled me throughNo sooner had I hit the streets When I met the fools that a young fool meets All in search of truth and bound for glory And listening to our own heartbeats We stood around the drum Though it's fainter now The older I become Living your life day after day Soon all your plans and changes Either fail or fade away Leaving so much still left to sayBut Daddy I want to let you know somehow The things you said are so much clearer now And I would turn the pages back But time will not allow The way these days just rip along Too fast to last, too vast, too strongSomewhere something went wrong Or maybe we forgot the song Make room for my forty-fives Along beside your seventy-eights Nothing survives But the way we live our livesSLEEP'S DARK AND SILENT GATE- Jackson Browne-Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder Where my life will lead me Waiting to pass under Sleep's dark and silent gateI found my love too late Running around day after day Looking for the time to play While my old friends slipped awayNever should have had to try so hard To make a love work out, I guess I don't know what love has got to do with happiness But the times when we were happy Were the times we never triedSitting down by the highway Looking down the road Waiting for a ride I don't know where I've been Wishing I could fly away Don't know where I'm going Wishing I could hide Oh God this is some shape I'm in When the only thing that makes me cry Is the kindness in my baby's eyeSometimes I lie awake at night and wonder Where the years have gone They have all passed under Sleep's dark and silent gate
