Simple Wisdom

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

The dogs are outside barkin'
At something they can't see
Old man sittin' upstairs
Watchin' his T.V.
Paul G. said it's party time
We all stand up to cheer
Twenty years down the road
It all became too clear

Chorus:
Simple wisdom what I gotta find
Simple wisdom will you carry me
Over the mountain, out to the sea
Simple wisdom

The road home is a hard one
When you walk it all alone
And it gets a little rougher
When you grind that jagged stone
Paul G. said it's party time
We all stand up to cheer
Twenty clicks down the road
It all became too clear

Repeat Chorus

 

Let's Go Today

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

High above a mountaintop
Distant drumming sounds
Calls us all to find ourself
Free of all our bounds
Locked away in all of us
Lifetime to unfold
Embrace the day, and you'll find love
A thousand places hold

Chorus:
Now's the time for you and me
Rush into the fold
The day is rich with everything
Come on now let's go

Somewhere out among the pine
The call of nature roams
Find us all within our time
Secret it unfolds
Along the way we touch the stars
And cry beneath the moon
Live and learn with every day
It's coming for us soon

Chorus

Repeat 1st verse

Chorus

Let's go
Let's go
Let's go

 

The Way Home

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

In memories find a way home now
But never though quite sure
That in the end,
we found there what we wanted
Come along, I'll take you there
And in the end you'll see
No going back, there's only
a tomorrow

Chorus:
Welcome to this free world
And the daily grind
People talking back and forth in rhyme
Visionaries melt into the sands of time
Find yourself walking home

In memories find a way home now
But never was I sure
Down the road I traveled off
to yesterday
Come on now, I will take you there
And in the end you'll see
No going back, there's only
a tomorrow
home

Chorus

Reprise

 

Picture Book

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

There's a face in the picture book
People smile, won't you take a look
I wish I could see
What made you laugh

Broken heart in the pale moonlight
Dance love shadows around firelight
So the picture never looked
Quite right to me

Chorus:
I always knew someday
The picture fades to gray
The story left unclear
And then we walk away
(Oh no, don't walk away)

There's a face in the picture book
Makes me laugh, when I take a look
I wish you could laugh
some more with me
There's a cloud in a clear blue sky
And this old picture makes me
want to cry
I wish I could see
What made you smile

 

Do You Want Me

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Every day I see you on the line
At the edge, stand down all love in time
And there we are, as lovers go
Filled with desire

Chorus:
Do you want me, do you need me
In the morning after all the rain
We're a burning fire
In the afternoon before we fade
Burning desire

Everyday I want to meet you there
With laughter, sunshine in your hair
And go as far as we would dare
Filled with desire

Chorus

Every day I long to feel the spark
Of heartbeat thunder in the dark
And here we are as lovers go
Filled with desire

Do you want me
Do you need me

Reprise

 

Rivertown

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

In Rivertown people say
That's where we live
That's where we stay

In Rivertown family
Hold onto family

Chorus:
Some say that it was awful
Some say it's just a shame
Like standin' in the
Front door
And no one there
Knows your name

In Rivertown it's not like me
To say to you, "Let it go free"
It's not like you
To say to me, "Come on boy let it be"

Chorus

Bridge:
Though my eyes were open
Blinded by the tears
Sittin' there n Rivertown
Lonely thru the years
Wait for you in Rivertown
Runnin' out of time
Wait for you in Riivertown
Always on my mind

Repeat 1st verse

Bridge:
The gamblin' wheels are rusted
The town is all shut down
Like standin' at the altar
And no one there, left around

Though my eyes were open
Blinded by the rain
Wait for you in Rivertown
Numb from all the pain
Wait for you in Rivertown
Always on my mind

In Rivertown
(Repeat)

 

Realtime

Putbress Palm / / Folwarski / ASCAP

First we find reality
Right beside the golden tower
Find there just a lonely heart
Seek the wisdom of the hour

Chorus:
All along we find the way
Back to where we were
Repeat:
All in real time
Repeat

Dreams upon a deep blue sea
Right beside the golden tower
Find that we're alone again
Seek the wisdom of the hour

Chorus

 

Fearless

Putbress / Palm / Folwarski / ASCAP

1:
Walk along the road tonight
Path awaiting, forward light
Hearts are gone, torn asunder
Heart alive, sounding thunder
Always standing, always waiting
Fearless
Always standing, always waiting
Fearless

2:
Wild allure, the heart abandon
Forward go the hands of time
All we are, and all we might be
Locked inside this simple rhyme
Always standing, always waiting
Fearless
Always standing, always waiting
Fearless

Instrumental Bridge

Repeat 2nd verse

 

Beggar's Tune

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Well he wandered in from nowhere
Said he'd stay for just awhile
In the city going somewhere
So you greet him with a smile

Chorus:
This is not what we came here for
This is not what we expect to find
This is not what we came here for
Well the city light so bright
It's a beggar's tune at night

And he spoke of golden times here
Back when nothing could go wrong
He said smilin' kind of crafty
That his life was like a song

Chorus

Bridge:
Well he fumbled with his pockets
And he pulled out a beat up smoke
Said his life was just like mine then
And he laughed like it's a joke

Chorus

End x4
It's a beggar's tune at night

 

Rainbow

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Where went the water
Held by the tide
Lonesome hearts adored life
Love been taken for a ride
Underneath the moonlight
Called out to speak the king
Believe I saw the angels
And a million golden dreams

Chorus:
Falling down, falling down
Fall around me, rainbow to see
Falling down, falling down, rainbow

Moved to the island
Pushed forward by the tide
Gentle breezes flowing
Love cannot be denied
Yearn for golden wisdom
Abandon pride of kings
Believe I saw the angels
And a million golden dreams

Chorus
Rainbow

 

The Way Home (Radio Version)

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

In memories find a way home now
But never though quite sure
That in the end, we found there what we wanted
Come along, I'll take you there
And in the end you'll see
No going back, there's only
a tomorrow

Chorus:
Welcome to the free world
And the daily grind
People talking back and forth in rhyme
Visionaries melt into the sands of time
Find yourself walking home

In memories find a way home now
But never was I sure
Down the road I traveled off to yesterday
Come on now, I will take you there
And in the end you'll see
No going back, there's only
a tomorrow
home

Chorus

 


Just a Taste

  1. There's a Way (live)
  2. Islands
  3. Once Upon a Time
  4. Ride the Wind

There's a Way (Live)

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Challenges from long ago
Love's forgotten past
Pride and possibilities
All slip by too fast

Caught up in the hurricane
Emotions gone awry
Pretty soon it's all the same
And time we said good bye

There's got to be a way
To see beyond our lives

Inviting love to come
Open up our eyes
There's got to be a way
To see beyond the world

Hold on

A million stars alive, tonight
Dance in the sky
A million stories I have heard
Down the road of life

Challenges of the heart we find
Along the way
Very soon it's all the same
Let's start a brand new day

There's got to be a way
To see beyond our lives

Inviting love to come
Open up our eyes

There's got to be a way
To see beyond the world

Hold on

 

Islands

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Wander alone through the night
Where did we fall
Chasing a dream to the light
Lost in the fog

chorus:
Islands of loneliness
Islands of light
Islands of hope in the sun
Years dim the passing of
Love in the night
Islands of hope everyone

Standing so close to the edge
Where did we fall
Held on so closely to love
Then shattered it all

chorus

Where are you gone into time
Wishing you'd call
Do you ever miss me at night
Where did we fall

 

Once Upon a Time

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Once upon a time we find
When I was yours
and you were mine
Forever
Wish upon a falling star
Can't believe we'd gone
that far Together

The years call down the rhyme
Past days gone we find
Once upon a time

Once abound in endless schemes
By firelight, the broken dreams
Fade to embers
Now we find an easy sign
Of what was yours
and what was mine Together

The years call down the rhyme
Past days gone we find
Once upon a time

 

Ride the Wind

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

On the wind of fortune
Call in the day
The future close at hand
All the love in time
A destiny we left behind
To light the lonely way

chorus:
Ride the wind across the sky
Ride the wind you and I
Ride the wind, ride the wind

Hear the thunder, in the distant sky
The rolling of the souls
All around us there, a loneliness
We just can't bare, secrets to unfold

chorus

On the wings of time
A rocking horse of fate we ride
To learn as we grow old
All around us there
A destiny we just can't share
Secrets to unfold

Ride the wind

All slip by too fast

Caught up in the hurricane
Emotions gone awry
Pretty soon it's all the same
And time we said good bye

I Know

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Listen to the feeling
Wanted to see

Moving down this highway
Need to be free

See how the others
Look at me

I KNOW

Look-out it's a summer day
Look-out it's a perfect way
To see how this world needs to be saved
I Know

Hold on to this moment
Hard to believe

Wanting all the people
Feel like me

Listen to the music
Set you free

I KNOW

Look-out it's a summer day
Look-out it's a perfect way
To see how this world needs to be saved
I Know

 

Windows

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Just one more time I see
your face
With that look inside your eyes
The stories all were said before
Just one more time to
dream away
The dreams of yesterday
The dreams were all
golden before

Windows of promises
Windows of light
I said I love you
You said you might
Things that we said before
Never to know
How was I to know

Just one more time to
wish away
The wrongs of yesterday
The stories all were told before

Just one more time to
walk away
To start a brand new day
The clouds clear from the sky
once more

Windows of promises
Windows of light
I said I love you
You said you might
Things that we said before
Never to know
How was I to know

Just one more time to
gaze away
At the good things we did find
The good times that we had before

Just one more time, walk through the door
Stay and talk some more
The stories all were told before

Windows of promises
Windows of light
I said I love you
You said you might
Things that we said before
Never to know
How was I to know

 

Unity

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Look at him now,
his life is a pity
Hoping she's doing alright
Look at her now, she knows that he loves her
Wishing he's there all the time

Moving on down upon this lonely road
Seeing all the people come around
Looking on down upon this certain time

Look at them now,
their life is a story
Seeing their love in the night
Look at them now,
the feeling is mutual
United, the way to be right

Moving on down upon this lonely road
Seeing all the people come around
Looking on down upon this certain time

 

Calling

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

I was there beside you
Locked inside the rain
Memories behind us
Always love and pain

Always calling, calling
Always calling, calling

Whispers in the soft wind
Gently call your name
Illusive and inviting
Lovers all the same

Always calling, calling
Always calling, calling

Wake-up now and find
turn slowly to
the light of day
Life is moving all around
it's calling you
it's calling you calling me

 

One Day

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

One day the father
Said to the boy
Gather your aching heart

Fill it with joy
Time brings us trials
That we meet both with smiles
And with anger

Longing for better days
Wanting much more
Lonely and tired
we knock on the door

Hoping to find what we left
Behind long forgotten

One day the curtain will find you
And it's never so far down the line

One day for certain will call us
And it's only a matter
of time

Wishing on falling stars
Waiting for more
Fearing the worst, as we open the door
Hoping to find what we left behind Long forgotten

Fanciful day-dreamer,
slip through the glass
Call out the old
worn-out dreams
Longing for the rest we find
What might be best
long forgotten

One day the curtain will find you
And it's never so far down the line

One day for certain will call us
And it's only a matter of time

 

Autumn Leaves

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Watch the day turn into
night my friend
Feel the moon
wash out the sky
Say hello to the
day my friend
Please don't ever,
let it pass us by

Spring warm breezes
soft the rain will fall
Summer trade winds
close at hand
Colors dancing as the
autumn leaves
Winter help us ... Understand

 

Big Deal

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

In the city, burns desire
To have more than we can own
Dreaming keepers,
midnight seekers
Walk down the street alone

Wait 'n for a
Big Deal to Roll Around
Big Deal, Go Downtown

Under-cover, of the
street light
Spirit gets turned to stone
Secret places, burned out faces
Turn them into skin and bone

Wait 'n for a
Big Deal to Roll Around
Big Deal, Go Downtown

In the city, no more angels
To save us from the
twilight zone
Under-cover of the midnight
Walk down the street alone

Wait 'n for a
Big Deal to Roll Around
Big Deal, Go Downtown

 

Yesterday / Today

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Yesterday was full of dreams
You went away
Tomorrow's just an
empty scheme
I'm on my way

High into the sky
I tossed all my hurt
and pain
Never wondered why
Years gone by, it felt
the Same
Never wanted
to be alone here
Yesterday – Today

Yesterday is gone it seems
Tomorrow's a dream
Forgotten in a slice of time
What it seems

High into the sky
I tossed all my hope
and fears
Never wondered why
What had happened through the years
Never wanted
to be alone here
Yesterday – Today

Yesterday is far away
And tomorrow is a dream
Memories a ghost in time
Aren't they always what
they seem?
Yesterday – Today

 

Once Upon a Time

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Once upon a time we find
When I was yours
and you were mine
Forever
Wish upon a falling star
Can't believe we'd gone
that far Together

The years call down the rhyme
Past days gone we find
Once upon a time

Once abound in endless schemes
By firelight, the broken dreams
Fade to embers
Now we find an easy sign
Of what was yours
and what was mine Together

The years call down the rhyme
Past days gone we find
Once upon a time

 

They Venture

Putbress / Folwarski / ASCAP

Faces toward the stars
Venture where they are
In ships they came to call
Conquer one and all
The tall mast reeling
in the wind

With sword and bible high
They came to take the land

They venture ...

As time passed through the sand
In wagons paved the land
Held their fear out before them

Forward they shall go
To mountain covered snow

They venture ...

To angels great and small
Their dreams of greatness fall
Into the shrinking universe

And to their own delight
With stars now in their sight

They venture.
