Peripatetic Sketch

Cripple Creek

I pulled out my lighter and a dirty cigarette 

I thought the worst of my doings, hadn't come to me yet

If loneliness could sing, wouldn't that ring true

I bet the whole wide world would hear it and sing along to the tune

Ah, ooh, oooh

Ah, ooh, oooh

Timing sure did tell how mistakes are made

With each lesson learned brings something to the page

If heartbreak had a name, well it'd be Josephine

Yes, I saw her the other day, she burned out in a gleam

Ah, ooh, oooh

Ah, ooh, oooh

 

Well where did my head go when I crossed through Cripple Creek

In search of gold and treasure, and fruition came to be

This loneliness could take me half way to the sea

Oh, but I don't wanna do it without someone next to me

Oooh, Oooh

Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh 

 

A Simple Melody

Well I'm takin' these strings and I'm writin' words 

That will flow right through to the bottom of the earth like

ABC, gotta tell somebody how I feel 

Tried to fight it tried to move ahead

But it came full circle when I swapped my bed for a

Single serving of life at sea

Those skies, opened my eyes

Life ain't easy, yes it's true

We're all just trying to navigate the daily avenues

Find your honey, follow through

And never stop doin' the things you love to do 

Little talks turn into rhymes

A simple melody can make a grown man cry or

Keep him movin till the break of dawn

They say, "Speed it up" or "Slow it down"

Fuck 'em all, I'm gonna make my own sound

Send it from my soul right to your heart

Oh, I've at least got to try

Life ain't easy, yes it's true

We're all just trying to navigate the daily avenues

Find your honey, follow through

And never stop doin' the things you love to do 

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Mnts & Seas

I feel conflicted by the mountains and the sea

The breeze on the water, the tops of the trees

Something that's written just came over me 

I feel conflicted by the mountains and sea

My heart found its roots in RMNP

Hit the trail for a weekend or maybe a week

Get lost in my mind, overcome defeat

My heart found its roots with the Rocky Mountain peaks  

How will I know where to go

It's been clockwork for years

I'm feelin' a fear

If I don't know where to go

I'll take the globe for a spin

See where it ends 

My mind's been sayin' head to easterly lands

Get your feet in the ocean and hands in the sand 

Face mother nature as best as I can 

My head's been sayin' get to easterly lands

How will I know where to go

It's been clockwork for years

I'm feelin' a fear

If I don't know where to go

I'll take the globe for a spin 

See where it ends, yeah

Tennessee

Tame is a word I cannot use

To describe the way I've been feelin' about you 

Wait for the moment to come and go 

Will I know if I am feeling at home

Away from the gold 

Well I tried, I tried

But I'm tired and I'm dry 

And we had a lovely parting

But I'm goin', I'm goin'

To Tennessee

Back to You

Do we remember how it felt

Shifting on tiles and everyone to help 

And do you recall

The way days used to seem like they had it all 

Well I'm searchin' the waters

Lookin' left to right, out of sight, here again

And I'm tryin' to find

Where it was that I lost my goddamn mind

Timin' never seemed to be right 

Yes, I've been struggling with sweet delights 

Travelin' down a one way sunset road 

Never stopping, never going 

Back to you

Timin' never seemed to be right 

Yes, I've been struggling with sweet delights 

Travelin' down a one way sunset road 

Never stopping, never going 

Back to you

Back to you
