On My Way Home
Alone and staring into darkness one last night
I’m headed to the place where love is in plain sight
I’ll leave this road behind
I’m on my way home
Where I finally know I want to be
And now I can see
That your love was just too good for me
But you waited for me to see
I’m on my way but every hour seems like a year
I couldn’t breathe when you said “I want you near”
and now the past will disappear
And you never know how it will go
So hold close to love and never let go

Loving Just You
THEME: True love.
STYLE: Jazz Vocal
LYRICS:
Loving just you
Comes so easy.
You’re the burning embers
Of a fire’s glow,
Whispering soft and low
To warm the cold night.
Loving just you
Comes so sweetly.
You’re the shining promise
Of the early dawn,
Singing your siren song
To bring back the light.
Such wonder overcomes me
Each time I see your face.
The world is all it should be
When you’re in my embrace.
Longing for you
Never leaves me.
You’re the deepest water
Of a secret well,
Casting a magic spell
That makes dreams come true.
And I’ve found all I could wish for,
Loving just you.

Until You
STYLE: Jazz Vocal
THEME: When you came into my life, I came alive!
LYRICS:
Until you, skies were hazy,
Calm and cool ruled the air.
Lonely nights didn’t faze me,
Love was not my affair.
Until you, every morning
Seemed the same as the last.
Passion heeded my warning,
Love belonged to the past.
Then one day the wind blew in
And tossed you by.
One fine day the wind blew in
And you caught my eye.
Now I see the horizon,
Now my future is clear.
My heart rose like the bright sun
When I saw you appear.
Life was cloudy and gray
Until you took my breath away.

Summer Heat
THEME: I miss your love!
STYLE: R&B-tinged pop
LYRICS:
The rain comes down like tears,
It seems a million years
Since you have gone and we’re apart.
Now winter nights grow long,
The lark has hushed its song
As though it shares my grieving heart.
Then I just close my eyes
And bring back sunlit skies,
The blazing love we knew before.
We’ll set desire free
When you come home to me,
And feel the summer heat once more.
The cold wind calls your name,
And though they look the same,
Familiar places are all wrong.
Old friends still ask for you,
As if it can’t be true
That you’re not here where you belong.
I will wait for you forever,
Keep the flame through any weather,
Move the earth to be together.
You are all the world to me.

Can’t Seem To Find My Way
THEME: Looking for direction after breaking up.
STYLE: Slow ballad
LYRICS:
A dead-end street, that’s what I’m on,
Wearing a rut in the ground.
It’s clear I’m going nowhere fast
And need to turn myself around.
It’s not the first time and won’t be the last
I’ve had to start over again.
I’m sure I’ll regain my direction,
Just not so sure of how or when.
Sleepless past midnight,
Still up at dawn.
Swear by the first light,
Today’s the day I’m moving on.
Easy to say, but I
Can’t seem to find my way.
No point remaining,
She’s gone for good.
No use in hanging
Around the same old neighborhood.
Don’t mean to stay, but I
Can’t seem to find my way.
Like a leaf blown by the north wind,
More adrift than I imagined.
I’ve never been quite so lost
Before I lost her.
Friends say to get out,
Meet someone new.
Take the first step out
And walk on down the avenue.
Maybe someday, but I
Can’t seem to find my way.

So Much, So Fast, So Soon
THEME: Whoa - this relationship is moving too fast for me!
STYLE: Fast Be-Bop
LYRICS:
What in the world were you thinking
When you said that you love me?
I’m a level-headed guy and I
Try to keep my wits about me,
Even though you’re quite bewitching,
It’s too much, too fast, too soon.
How in the world did we think
We had the same understanding?
I’m a reasonable man and I
Can’t quite tell when you’re so nearby
But it just seems crazy to try
For the sun, the stars, the moon.
Yes, it is true I’m nearly flattened by your kisses.
Clearly I should be resisting these near misses.
I’ll walk away, turn you down, end the play, hold my ground…
Wait—don’t go, come back, resume!
Why in the world was I thinking
That I don’t think I love you?
I’m a well-intentioned male but I
Failed to heed the pleasant warnings
Every goner gets before he
Falls so much, so fast, so soon.

No Regrets
THEME: We had a great time together - and even though breaking up is painful, I have no regrets.
STYLE: Slow Jazz Waltz
LYRICS:No regrets, this is just
The way it turned out to be.
No regrets, as you said,
Love’s tide can change like the sea.
We had our day,
We sang our song,
We took a chance,
Oh well, it’s gone.
No regrets, though it seems
So hard to tell you good-bye.
Don’t forget, every ending
Has its own reasons why.
Who could know letting go
Is such a heavy price to pay?
No regrets, turn the light off,
Walk away.
