I found a caterpillar one day.
I took her home with me.
My little angel worm.
I put her in a jar with grass
and a stick.
I thought we were pretty happy.
We smiled a lot.
Then things changed.

It seems my angel finally got her wings
she flew away today.
It was bound to happen someday
I could see it in her eyes.
Still don't see why she had to go.

It seems I'll have to build some wings
I don't know how else I'll get any.
My angel flew away today.
She didn't tell me how to get my wings.

Blue

My red blood turns to blue
when you leave me, darlin'.
Don't leave me cryin', baby.
I need your love, woman.
The world is cold, love.
My blood is freezing
since your gone.
How could you leave me, darlin'?
Red blood running blue in my veins.

Too Much

"You can't go back," she told me.
But it was too late.
I'd already run too far ahead.
"When you come back," she said,
"I won't be the same."
The truth is just too true, I guess.

I have too much love.
I just can't contain myself.
I have too much pain.
I just can't control myself.

"I'll never be back," I was thinking.
But never was too long.
"I'll be okay," I told myself.
I was just too wrong.

I have too much time.
I don't know what to do with myself.
I have too much pride.
But I just can't see myself.

There's too much to do.
There's too much to say.
There's too much love.
There's too much pain.

It's Hot

I live in the attic
Man it's HOT up here
Most folks don't see it
But, man, it's HOT up here

But I live,
Though I don't feel
the HEAT
It's all just heat to me
It's all just heat.

Smile my way.
Look at me.
Look my way
I don't know what to say...
But I live,
Though I don't feel
the HEAT
It's all just heat to me
It's all just heat.

Catch Me If You Can

I'm gonna throw my love at you
Please, catch it if you can.
You can have my heart and soul.

I'm gonna throw my love your way
Won't you catch it if you can?
I'm so tired and life's so cold.

Catch it if you can.
I'm gonna give you myself
Catch me if you can
I need you like nothing else.

Throw my heart at you
Gonna throw my life at you
Gonna throw my love at you, girl.

Catch it if you can.
Catch me if you can.
catch me

walking

i was walking
down the street
one day
last week
i was smiling
a lonesome grin
couldn't find
a single friend
i was walking
with myself
just me
noone else
now and then
take a rest
right here
is good, i guess.
i'm just walking
i got nowhere special to be

Hard Living

These days it seems like its harder to smile
It should never be this hard to smile.
It seems that my love just gets harder to give.
Love shouldn't be hard just to give.

Lately it seems like its harder to be
the person that I want to be.
These days it seems like its harder to live.
But it should never be hard just to live.
Hard living these days.
Hard living

Long Way

I can't see you,
yet I look at you all the time.
I can't hear you,
but you're always on my mind.

You're a long, long way from me.

I can read the
words that you send to me
and I have the
picture you sent the other day,

you're still a long, long way from me.

And you can read me,
so I can talk to you anytime.
That's a good thing,
Because I just can't get you off my mind.

I remember your smile...
I'll see you again!!!
It's been a long while,
my dear old friend.

You're a long way from me, but
getting closer every day.

Smile

Just living these days like you've a million of 'em
giving it away as if you had plenty of it
running away like you had some place better to be
smiling at everybody, they're smiling back at you
struttin that stuff cause you know you got it
better run away, or else they might take it from you
now listen to me when I say
it's not safe for you to play that way
be a good girl won't you please
it would set my mind at ease
live each day as if it's your last
keep yourself to yourself
always remember there's no place better than here
treat them the way you want them to treat you
and don't forget to smile
