My Lyrics & Poems Page!


The Arts and Sciences are Often Thought of As Antagonists... A Person is Either a Right-Brainer, er a Left-Brainer... I've Tried to Excercise Both Sides of My Brain [Though I'm Sure Most of You Have Already Concluded By Now that I Don't Have One - A NO Brainer Ha! ]... Anyways, I'd Like to Share With U Sum Lyrics That I Wrote 4 a Track on My Pal Mark's UpComing CD... I've Titled it... 'There Used To Be A Time'


As an added bonus [er... maybe not - depending on yer modem connection] I've added a RealAudio Narration of the Poem! Thats Right! Now You Can Listen to Me Speak the Lyrics As U Read Along...

There Used to be a Time, Quite Long Ago
Life was Simple No Need to Know
About The Future, or About The Past
Each Day was Freedom
It Would Always Last

Or So I Thought
Or So I Knew
Or So I Said
Or So I'd Do

And then One Day My Mind Did Wake
My Heart Did Cry
My Soul Did Break

-------------------------------------------------

There Used to be a Time Not Long Ago
Everything Was Perfect
Everyone Said So
My Dreams Were Vivid
My Spirits Soared
Everything I Wanted... Everything I Wished For

Or So I Thought
Or So I Knew
Or So I Said
That I Would Do

Until that Day When My Mind Did Wake
When My Heart Did Cry
When My Soul Did Break

-------------------------------------------------

There Used to be a Time Just Yesterday
I Was Thinking about Tommorrow In A Different Way
I Thought About the Future, And About the Past
And I Knew that Freedom Was Always Meant to Last

And So I Thought
And So I Knew
And So I Prayed
That I Would Do

And On that Day My Mind Did Wake
My Life Was Back
My Storm Did Break
