A lazy rise into the sky
Lovely Luna starts her flight
At her best at around midnight
When she's swinging her child tides

A sister to a burning sun
Bears witness like a selfless nun
To Father time's relentless run
Madam moon's work is never done

In the sweet sweet summer dark
Her soft glow amidst the stars
She dances with a million fireflies in jars
To a symphony of crickets playing their guitars

La La La La La Luna
La La La La La Luna

She is a clock of the universe
She keeps the seasons in her purse
A watchful eye, a faithful nurse
A companion to our Mother Earth

Strawberry nights are rosy and gay
Harvest nights bring autumn rain
Halo nights bring silver haze
Full nights bring the wolves out to play

In the sweet sweet summer dark
Her soft glow amidst the stars
She dances with a million fireflies in jars
To a symphony of crickets playing their guitars

La La La La La Luna
La La La La La Luna

As the sun begins to rise
Luna slowly says goodbye
A glowing shadow of light
A whispered morning lullaby

In the sweet sweet summer dark
Her soft glow amidst the stars
A million fireflies in jars
And crickets playing their guitars

La La La La La Luna
La La La La La Luna

Lovely Luna

One day death passed me by
Just ships passing in the night
By pure chance we did not collide
A pure coincidence, I won that fight

An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown

Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by

And several times we met again
A burning smell upon on the wind
The deep electric squeeze it sends
But we say, again, not today my friend

An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown

Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by

When the day comes, to pay that tender
When the day comes, the time to surrender
When the day comes, we will remember
The days we escaped the final slumber

An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown

Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by

From persecution comes revolution
From revelation comes resolution
From confusion to conclusion
From intrusion to infusion

We ain't gonna be hurt no more
No sir, this ain't your Daddy's war
Let's figure out what we stand for
And emerge as warriors

Hear us roar! Hear us roar!
You ain't gonna hurt us no more!
No, no, no, no more

From distribution to contribution
From disillusion to transfusion
From seclusion to inclusion
From pollution to evolution

We ain't gonna be hurt no more
No ma'am, this ain't your Mama's war
We've got to take the floor
And we will emerge as warriors

Warriors! Warriors!
Hear us roar! Hear us roar!
You ain't gonna hurt us no more!
No, no, no, no more

From prostitution to constitution
From illusion to solution
From frustration to collaboration
From institution to absolution

We ain't gonna be hurt no more
No sir, this is ain't your Senator's war
New politics, open the door
And we will emerge as warriors

Warriors! Warriors!
Hear us roar! Hear us roar!
You ain't gonna hurt us no more!
No, no, no, no more

Rock Away

When this life takes a toll. When you find you are in that hole.
Just rock. rock. rock. And roll. Let sun shine in your soul.
Hey, Hey, Hey. No. No. No. Just rock and roll.

When we try to find our way. We try our best to seize the day.
We sometimes find it slips away. It feels like it was all a fake.
Take it day by day. Just rock. Rock away.

When you see the darkness grow. When you can’t find a flow.
Just rock. rock. rock. And roll. Let sun shine in your soul.
Hey, Hey, Hey. No. No. No. Just rock and roll.

We are born to live. Born to play. Being alone is not our fate.
Don’t let it be a grave. Chase the flame. Chase what you crave.
Take it day by day. Just rock. Rock away.

When we hurt, we put on a show. We get stuck in the undertow.
Just rock. rock. rock. And roll. Let sun shine in your soul.
Hey, Hey, Hey. No. No. No. Just rock. and roll.

When we have the highest stakes. When we get lost in mistakes.
We forget the price we pay. We forget what we have to save.
Take it day by day. Just rock. Rock away.

Rock Away

Sugar so sweet, fly you to the moon
Spice so nice, gonna see you soon

About Me

Bio

I write for the love of the game. I'd like to believe that if you find "it", it will find you too. And even if it doesn't, at least you had fun playing.

Lyrics are like a sister. You ride their coat tails, learning about the world and yourself as you go. They are there for your birthdays, your break ups, your big moments. You reminisce about people and places and silly fads. They know your moods and secrets. They've heard your shower voice and seen your ugliest cry.

I love that lyrics can tell a story or be nonsensical and abstract. I love that they bring people together, a shared experience. It moves me when stadiums full of people sing the words that someone wrote. There are not many things in life that are like that.

I don't play or sing, but I've loved music for as long as I can remember. I grew up listening to Oldies, Musicals, Classic Rock, Hard Rock, Soft Rock, Country, Hair Bands, Metal, Grunge, Alternative, Rap, Hip Hop, Pop, Punk, Reggae. I wake up every day with something different playing on the internal jukebox. My writing seems to be just as varied.

To be a part of something that others are moved by, big or small, would be meaningful to me - that's why I'm here.

I write for the love of the game.
