OPEN UP YOUR PRESENT
VERSE 1
You could live back in the past, Or… live for tomorrow…
never-really-even-living here in the present day.
Then somewhere down the line as you seek-a-little peace of mind
you’ll have to step into the present all the way.
CHORUS
Never give up on tomorrow. Just don’t forget about today.
The present is a Gift…much too precious to be wasted.
Better open up your present every day.
VERSE 2
You could travel half the world to run from some-of-your yesterdays...
but they’ve a tendency to follow where you’ve gone.
Then somewhere down the line as you seek-a-little peace of mind
You'll find that piece was there beside you all along.
CHORUS
Never give up on tomorrow. Just don’t forget about today.
The present is a gift…much too precious to be wasted.
Better open up your present every day.
BRIDGE
Yesterday is history, tomorrow’s still a mystery…
The present is the gift that’s here today.
Then it’s say goodbye to the setting sun, be glad another day is done
and glad that yet another’s on the way...
OUTRO
So here you are right now, you made it…back from tomorrow
and you’re no longer living yesterday.
Now when someone down the line says they seek-a- little peace of mind
maybe You'll pass on this message, and you’ll say:
CHORUS
Never give up on tomorrow. Just don’t forget about today.
The Present is a gift, much too precious to be wasted.
Better open up your present.
The Present is a gift, much too precious too be wasted.
Better open up your present.
Open up your present.

LYRICS FOR ANOTHER MARGARITA OR THREE 8-31-25
VERSE 1
I got Stranded on a half-sunken island,
beached on a strip of wet sand.
big hole in the hull, sails all torn
About a thousand miles from dry land.
I fought thirty-foot waves that a hurricane blew,
bailing water with an empty soup can.
So glad these daydreams always end
with a Margarita in my hand.
CHORUS
Up here it’s Mimosas for Brunch if you please…
or maybe Coronas or Long Island Teas,
But during every days dreams about sailin’ the seas,
There’s a Margarita here with me…
And then another Margarita…or three
VERSE 2
I live just across the street from the water
in a boatyard on the strand.
Where my boat and me, for years here now,
We’re always high, up on our Dry Dock Stand.
I had a lifelong dream to build this boat
and Sail off to distant lands.
But we all know, some things don't go
exactly like we'd planned.
CHORUS
So up here its Mimosas for Brunch if you please…
or maybe Coronas or Long Island Teas,
But during every days dreams about sailin’ the seas,
There’s a Margarita here with me
And then another Margarita…or three
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
OUTRO
I set a course for the South Seas Islands.
And I’ll be making way real soon
To watch palm trees dancing in the Trade Winds,
and swim turquoise blue lagoons.
But for now, we’re still here in the boatyard
(part of a dry land Flotilla it seems)…
& I’ll be workin’ on my boat tryin’ to get her afloat
And start livin’ my sail-a-way dreams.

UNTIL SHE COMES AROUND (Lyrics)
INTRO
Some of my well-meaning friends are saying it's been way to long
Since I’ve had a girlfriend, and they wonder what is wrong.
I tell ‘em I’m simply searching for the match that suits me best,
And if you ask me what kind of girl I want,
There's just thirteen things on my list.
VERSE 1
I want a girl who Drives/Digs a pickup truck...I want a girl who’ll drink a beer.
I want a girl who pulls no punches...tells you what you need to hear.
I want a girl with a couple-a- fine dogs that she saved from the pound.
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about
Until she comes around.
VERSE 2
I want a girl who can chop some wood...I want a girl who’s on the go.
I want a girl who knows finances...got her ducks all in a row.
I want a girl who can look like a million bucks for a night out on the town
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about...
Until she comes around.
CHORUS
Until she comes around, she could be just around the bend
or sittin right there beside me, bein’ the best of friends.
A match that lasts a lifetime, by friendship will be bound and
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreaming about
Until she comes around
MUSICAL BRIDGE
VERSE 3
I want a girl who can be kinda rough...I want a girl who can be smooooth.
I want a girl who, when she’s dancin’, you-can-see-that-she-can-really-move.
I want a girl with the highest-octane kiss, and a smile that’ll melt me down.
And that’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about
Until she comes around’
CHORUS
Until she comes around, could be her heart is on the mend,
And she is just not ready for her new life to begin.
If romance takes time finding us, but a friendship can be found,
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin about
Until she comes around.
OUTRO
Now friends say “where oh where are ya ever gonna find a girl like that?”
They tell me I’m just wishful thinking,
But that’s not where I’m at cuz
This girl my mind has dreamed up, I know will be found
Cuz my heart just don't give up...
No, my heart just don’t give up
And I know my heart just won’t give up...
Until she comes around,
(fade) Until she comes around.
(fade) Until she comes around.
(firmly) I want a girl who Digs/Drives a pickup truck.

UNTIL SHE COMES AROUND (Lyrics)
INTRO
Some of my well-meaning friends are saying it's been way to long
Since I’ve had a girlfriend, and they wonder what is wrong.
I tell ‘em I’m simply searching for the match that suits me best,
And if you ask me what kind of girl I want,
There's just thirteen things on my list.
VERSE 1
I want a girl who Drives/Digs a pickup truck...I want a girl who’ll drink a beer.
I want a girl who pulls no punches...tells you what you need to hear.
I want a girl with a couple-a- fine dogs that she saved from the pound.
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about
Until she comes around.
VERSE 2
I want a girl who can chop some wood...I want a girl who’s on the go.
I want a girl who knows finances...got her ducks all in a row.
I want a girl who can look like a million bucks for a night out on the town
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about...
Until she comes around.
CHORUS
Until she comes around, she could be just around the bend
or sittin right there beside me, bein’ the best of friends.
A match that lasts a lifetime, by friendship will be bound and
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreaming about
Until she comes around
MUSICAL BRIDGE
VERSE 3
I want a girl who can be kinda rough...I want a girl who can be smooooth.
I want a girl who, when she’s dancin’, you-can-see-that-she-can-really-move.
I want a girl with the highest-octane kiss, and a smile that’ll melt me down.
And that’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin’ about
Until she comes around’
CHORUS
Until she comes around, could be her heart is on the mend,
And she is just not ready for her new life to begin.
If romance takes time finding us, but a friendship can be found,
That’s the kinda girl I’ll be dreamin about
Until she comes around.
OUTRO
Now friends say “where oh where are ya ever gonna find a girl like that?”
They tell me I’m just wishful thinking,
But that’s not where I’m at cuz
This girl my mind has dreamed up, I know will be found
Cuz my heart just don't give up...
No, my heart just don’t give up
And I know my heart just won’t give up...
Until she comes around,
(fade) Until she comes around.
(fade) Until she comes around.
(firmly) I want a girl who Digs/Drives a pickup truck.
