Quiet Streets
Verse 1
I walk along quiet streets
I once walked with you
I count each cobblestone
There’s nothing else to do
CHORUS
All I really want to do
Is walk again with you
All I really want to do
Is walk again with you
Verse 2
I amble on aimlessly
To places I saw with you
And recall them fondly
It’s all I have to do
CHORUS
Instrumental
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
Going Home To Telluride
Verse 1
Been to Paris having fun
Been to London, run, run, run
Was in Brussels for a day
Then to Zurich right away
CHORUS
Going home, Going Home, Going home
To Telluride
Going home, Going Home, Going home
To Telluride
Verse 2
Went to Cancun for a week
Drinking vodka on the beach
Spent some time in Montreal
Off to Frisco in the fall
CHORUS
Been to Naples in the spring
Then to LA for a fling
Off to Vegas for some fun
Then to London, run, run, run
CHORUS
Hard Woman
Verse 1
I’ve heard the wind howl
In the winter time
And the rain fall
As if it fell in rhyme
I’ve heard a lion roar
In the dead of night
And a coyote bay
To cause me fright
CHORUS
But I’ve never, never
Heard you cry
No I’ve never
Heard you cry
But I’ve never, never
Heard you cry
No I’ve never
Heard you cry
Verse 2
I’ve heard sea galls sing
Out on the bay
And the priests pray
Almost night and day
I’ve heard the breeze rush
On a mountain pass
And a cat purr
While on my lap
CHORUS
Instrumental
CHORUS
Verse 3
I’ve heard lost souls cry
From a far off place
And the tide roll in
As I begged for grace
I’ve heard children play
In the summertime
And an angel sing
In ethereal rhyme
CHORUS
Speed
Verse 1
I know I shouldn’t - I love to drive my car
I know I shouldn’t - I drive it hard and far
I always do it - I want the blinding speed
I’ll never stop- speed is a need
CHORUS
Gliding through the night
At the speed of light
Flying through the night
Everything is right
Verse 2
I know I shouldn’t but I love to get high
I always have - I don’t know why
When I do it - I can touch the sky
When I do it - I sometimes cry
CHORUS
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
Going South
Verse 1
I’m going south to fade away
I’m going south, Mexico way
I want to feel the sun everyday
And watch the clouds drift away
CHORUS
I’m going south today
I’m going south to stay
I’m going south today
I finally found a way
Verse 2
I can feel it’s time to go
No more cold, no more snow
Sand and sun and sea and air
To live my life without a care
CHORUS
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
CHORUS
Beauty Queen
Verse 1
She is a beauty queen
Long and lean
With eyes that shine
In the night
Her head is high
When she says goodbye
With eyes that shine
Like the sky
CHORUS
She’s beautiful, it’s easy to see
Why men come under her spell
She’s beautiful, it’s easy to see
She’s a queen, you can tell
Verse 2
When I saw her first
I began to thirst
For the love
She brings in the night
She is a beauty queen
Strong and lean
With eyes that shine
Like the stars
CHORUS
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
CHORUS
Seasons
Verse 1
I walked with you in summer
I loved you in the fall
We made it through the winter
But spring was best of all
CHORUS
We’ve been through the seasons
Enjoyed a summer’s night
We cozyed up in winter
And saw the morning light
Verse 2
We met in Colorado
Then traveled to the south
We moved to the city
And wondered all about
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL

It’s been many seasons
Since I saw you first
If I were to lose you
It would be a curse

Hey girl, st*rs are made in LA

You should have said goodbye
Times In My Life
Verse 1
There were times in my life
There was nothing but strife
There were times in my life
I wouldn’t think twice

But when you say you’re going away
I just don’t know what to say
But when say there’s just no way
I just don’t know what to say
Verse 2
There were times in my life
Everything was just right
There were times in my life
The future looked bright
