New Direction
When I was young I thought I had my own way,
I knew exactly where I wanted to belong. Now I look into my own reflection, I know I'm looking in a new direction now. But time when I was with you and it's slipping away everyday, And the teacher never listens to the boy with the dream anyway. All we ever wanted was somebody to believe in, All we ever needed was a chance. All we ever needed was someone to share the dream with, Is that too much for anyone to ask? Now forever isn't such a long time, 'Cos I've been talking to the people that I know. Now I'm looking in a new direction, I'll never look into my own reflection now. But time when I was with you and it's slipping away everyday, And the teacher never listens but there's something that I wanna say. All we ever wanted was somebody to believe in, All we ever needed was a chance. All we ever needed was someone to share the dream with, Is that too much for anyone to ask? Now you've gone and thrown it all away, The time has come, there's nothing you can say. But it's never gonna change, It'll always be this way, And it's never gonna change anymore. All we ever wanted was somebody to believe in, All we ever needed was a chance. All we ever needed was someone to share the dream with, Is that too much for anyone to ask? embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages.

I Tell All My Secrets To My Guit
One day I'll find a place to look,
And I'll see the chances that I took, 'Cos I'm moving closer to the sun, And I'm passing clouds by one by one. One day I'll find the words to say, I'll think of you till morn each day, 'Cos I tell all my secrets to my guitar, And I'm looking for answers to where we are. One day I'll find a place to go, One day I'll find a place I'll know, and I know That it will always be the same old way, And nothing's ever gonna change, So don't you try and give it away, Don't leave me down. One day I'll find a place to go, And I'll play my songs to a girl I know, I'll lead the way if you follow me, 'Cos I've seen the places you want to see. One day I'll find a place to go, One day I'll find a place I'll know, and I know That it will always be the same old way, And nothing's ever gonna change, So don't you try and give it away, Don't leave me down.

Lazy Love
I was once like you are now,
I was lost, but now I'm found. I needed you to comprehend, Your lazy love, it never ends. Lazy love is all around, Lazy love don't make a sound, Lazy love is all we need, Lazy love. Lazy love will take you where you are, Lazy love will make you fall apart. Lazy love is a one-man game, With a too good love just to take the blame, 'Cos lazy love will always be around, Lazy love. Lazy love. I was once like you are now, I was lost, but now I'm found, I needed you to comprehend, Your lazy love, it never ends.

Lost Boy
I'm ever wandering,
Reaching out to What we never found. I always dream of What we spoke of, I'm ever wondering why. Forever falling, I hear you calling, You never call my name. All we have to do, All we have to see, All we have to do Is follow you, We will follow you, We will follow you. I'm a lost boy, I've never found love, I'm never free of mind. I'm a lost boy, Until I found you, I never knew the way. All we have to do, All we have to see, All we have to do Is follow you, We will follow you, We will follow you. I never felt this real Until I found you. I never felt this real Until I found you. That's when I knew That you were the one. That's when I knew That you were the one. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

Folk Song
I'm watching, I'm waiting, I'm anticipating
The move of the time as we move down the line. I'm walking along and I'm singing my song To the people who hear and the ones with no fear. I'm tumbling down to a man with a crown, And I'm watching him walk away. I'm washing the car of a well-known star who has Blown all his worries away. I'm feeling the shame for the song I just made For the words make no sense, they're no longer intense. I'm writing this song for the dream that I long, And I'm watching it float away. Yes I'm watching it float away. I'm living the life of a man in a time, When the people have names but they all seem the same. By the time of the fight it's the end of the night, And the hole in the wall is a soul for them all. I'll watch as they all fall down. I'll watch as they all fall down. I'll watch as they all fall down. I lack inspiration for the songs I am making And I'm putting the blame on today. I'm floating through space with an unknown race Who are taking their time to prepare. I'm feeling no shame for the words from my brain Cos it's all that I have left. Yes it's all that I have left. I'm living the life of a man in a time When the people have names but they all seem the same. By the time of the fight it's the end of the night, And the hole in the wall is a soul for them all. I'm living the life of a man in a time, When the people have names but they all seem the same. By the time of the fight it's the end of the night, And the hole in the wall is a soul for them all. I'll watch as they all fall down. I'll watch as they all fall down. I'll watch as they all fall down. I'll watch as they all fall down. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

Man With No Name
Open your eyes, look at the skies,
Look at the perfect view. Don't walk away when you hear mothers say "You should listen 'cos I'm talking to you". Look at the time, you're feeling fine, Don't feel down and blue. Don't be afraid if you don't know his name, He's just like me and you. I'll take my time, I will read between the lines. I'll take it all, I will follow you wherever you may be. Down in the street, the people we meet, I don't think they look at you. They're just the same 'cos they don't know your name, They're just like me and you. They'll take their time, they will read between the lines. They'll take it all, they will follow you wherever you may be. There's a man with no name, who is calling your name, And he looks just like your friend. There's a man with no name, and he's taking the blame For the crimes that you once caused. There's a man with no name who is going insane, He can't forgive his life. There's a man with no name who's exactly the same As your girlfriend was last night. There's a man with no name, He's the same, With no name. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

All You Need
If all you need is love,
Where do we draw the line? If all you need is love, When do we find the time? If all you need is honesty, When do we look behind? If all you need is honesty, When do we tell a lie? No more crying, No more fighting, No more dreaming, All your life. No more laughing, No more hiding, No more dreaming, All day long. All you need is love, All you need is someone there to call. All you need is love, All you need is time to say goodbye. If all you need is touch, When do we feel the same? If all you need is touch, When do we feel the pain? If all you need is someone there, Someone to call your own If all you need is someone there, When do we feel alone? No more crying, No more fighting, No more dreaming, All your life. No more laughing, No more hiding, No more dreaming, All day long. All you need is love, All you need is someone there to call. All you need is love, All you need is time to say goodbye, Just time to say goodbye, Just time to say goodbye, Just time to say goodbye. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages.

It's Only Me
It started all in a place unknown,
I watched you run, then I saw you hide, But I never let go. I took you down, then I sang you a song, In a place unknown. As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... I took your name, tried to fill you with fame, To the end of time. When I took your hand 'till the end of the night, 'Till the morning light. With my endless sound, tried to make you smile, Does it make you cry? As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... And I saw you running, And I saw you hide. And I saw you coming, You're a friend of mine. But it's all in my mind and my soul, It's all in the people we know, then you know That it was only me. Now you know that it's only me, In the end it's all that I would like to believe. In the end it's all that I would like to believe. As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... As soon as they know it's only me, As soon as they know... Well that's one step towards the future my friend. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages.

I Want The World To Know My Name
Coming out of nowhere,
You're dreaming all your life, Living in this wide world, Watching it all go by. Living through your nightmares, To floating in the sea, Watching all this wide world Fall inside of me. I know the stars don't see me, I know that you don't need me, I know that you don't feel my pain. I know the stars don't see me, I know that you don't need me, I want the world to know my name, And I think that's why I'm here. I've never had this feeling At any place or time. I'm falling through this wide world With everything I find. I know the stars don't see me, I know that you don't need me, I know that you don't feel my pain. I know the stars don't see me, I know that you don't need me, I want the world to know my name, And I think that's why I'm here. You know what's in my head, You know what's in my head, And I think that's why I'm here, Just to live inside your fear, And I think that's why I came, So the world can know my name, So the world can know my name, So the world can know my name. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages.

Beyond Song
So tell me can't you see
This flame that's burning inside of me? Where did I go wrong? I can't believe that I wrote this song. How can you believe In all the people that we've deceived? I know it's inside me. I know she don't like me, But it's gone, it came out wrong It's beyond song, It's beyond song. So where do we all stand? I wrote this letter to understand. Was it you or me? There must be something that I can't see. So where am I to turn? I hope it's something that I can learn. I hope she don't find me, But your words, they invite me To the place where I belong, Where it's beyond song. It's beyond song, It's beyond song, It's beyond song. I don't think I can believe In words I'll never receive, The only problem is me. I've got to find a way out, Is there a place I can shout, Where no-one's looking at me? It's beyond song, It's beyond song, It's beyond song, It's beyond song. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

Better Day
When I was young, I thought that I could find a better way.
I dreamed a dream for all my life and now it's gone away. Now I don't believe a word they say, And everywhere I look I see your face. I'd like to take you with me, but I Haven't got a ticket anymore. Now the dream has been and gone to find a better day. Turned my life right upside-down and left me on my face. Now it's up to me to make a change, This fairytale is more than I can take. I'd like to take you with me, but I Haven't got a ticket anymore. All I ever wanted was a chance to say that I am not afraid. Now I see a new beginning, Now there's something to believe in, Now the time has come for me to Tell the world that I am not afraid. So in the end the story goes that I will have to wait. Now I look into my eyes and see what I create. I believe that time will overcome, I believe that love will seal my fate. I'd like to take you with me, but I Haven't got a ticket anymore. I'd like to take you with me, but I Haven't got a ticket anymore. No, I haven't got a ticket anymore. No, I haven't got a ticket anymore. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

Where We Are
So what's the story now?
We've done what you came for. The lights have all gone down, The sun's still waiting to fall. You put yourself on the line, Don't keep waiting for time. Since we've come this far, Let's go straight to the top. They've all been waiting, For something new to arrive. I've been hesitating, For what a wait meantime. I know that in the end, we will find out where we are. I know that in the end, we will find out where we are, We will find out where we are. So there's this little story, About what I came for. The lights had all gone down, The sun's still waiting to fall. They've all been waiting, For something new to arrive. I've been hesitating, For what a wait meantime. I know that in the end, we will find out where we are. I know that in the end, we will find out where we are, We will find out where we are. Just where we are, just where we are. Just where we are, just where we are. That's where we are, Where we are. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

It's All Over
I never meant to cause you pain,
But that's all over now, It's all happening again. I never meant to do you wrong, But it's all over now, It's all written in my song. I never meant to push you away, But it's all over now, I keep telling myself each day. You know it won't go, It won't follow me. It's all over now, It's all over now. I never meant to follow you, But that's all over now, That's all that I could do. I never want to say goodbye, But that's not over now, 'Cos a friendship never dies. You know it won't go, It won't follow me. It's all over now, It's all over now. How do you feel now it's all gone? It's all over now, it's all over now. How do you feel to hear my song?

Not On My Life
I was talking to the one they know,
Telling me to go, Not on my life. Wandering 'round with everyone they see, Telling me to be, Not on my life. All those stupid things I've said, They were bringing me down like I'll never forget, Making me feel like there's something instead, Telling me everything will be alright. Tell it to me again... I was falling from the sky above, From never-ending love, Not on my life. But everything is never as it seems, Forever in my dreams, Not on my life. All those stupid things you've said, They were bringing me down like I'll never forget, Making me feel like I'm already there, Telling me everything will be alright. Tell it to me again... But there ain't no use in telling me your stories, 'Cos I know everything will turn out fine. When I was young they told me there's no other way To reach the other side... But do they know? And do they see? Do they know? I was talking to the one they know, Telling me to go, Not on my life. Wandering 'round with everyone they see, Telling me to be, Not on my life. All those stupid things I've said, They were bringing me down like I'll never forget, Making me feel like there's something instead, Telling me everything will be alright, Telling me everything will be alright, Telling me everything will be alright.

Story Of Time
Take me to the place where I came from,
Take me to the place where I belong. It's your love, it's your life, It's your maker, your saviour, Your time, your place and your favour. The story of time is a book of lies, And the meaning of life is your choice. The story of time is an endless romance With feelings by your side. Take me down to the forest by the stream, Take me down to the neverending dream. It's your voice, it's your choice, It's your meaning, it's your feeling, It's your friends and your foes that you're dealing. The story of time is a book of lies, And the meaning of life is your choice. The story of time is an endless romance With feelings by your side. With all my problems and my joys, With all my feelings to employ, I'll forget my pride and begin to sing, I'll forgive myself and I'll let you in, I'll let you in. It's your love, it's your life, It's your maker, your saviour, Your time, your place and your favour. The story of time is a book of lies, And the meaning of life is your choice. The story of time is an endless romance With feelings by your side. So take me down, Take me, take me, take me, take me, Take me take me down. Take me down. embed code Put the clip of this song on any of your html web pages. Copy and paste the code below to embed it. |

Wishing you all the very best...
I recently found out that I'm one of 10 finalists from the music contest on here that is eligible to win $1000 at the end of the month. In order for me to win, I must have the highest amount of votes by members, album sales and overall activity on my profile.
The night of Valentine's Day (music IS my lover) I recorded a few songs and they are now for sale as well. If it's been a while since you've seen my profile, do take a listen. Please check out my myspace profile too- there's a lot more to see, read and hear there (I'm a writer and videographer as well).
*with respect and gratitude*
thank you for your time and consideration.
in love, for love, feel love, be love, with love, my love, from love
