Don't Run Away

This one is for my number 1 son. The first person I ever really loved.


Don't Run Away

Where are you going?

I see you out on the fringe

What do you need from me?

So I can pull you back in?


Do I need to take something back?

Something I’ve said or done

Did I push you off the track?

I hate to see you on the run


Because of you

I wanted to live again

Because of you

I learned to love again


Please don’t run away

Please won’t you stay?


What’s going on

In that brilliant mind?

What would I find

If you let me in?


For you I would give my life

The first one to give me life

I knew you were an angel

I knew God sent me an angel


Because of you

I wanted to live again

Because of you

I learned to love again


Please don’t run away

Please won’t you stay?

Can’t Stay This Way (For God and Grace)

The corporate world started to weigh me down. I wanted to wallow in it. But on my monitor, staring me in the face is The Memorandum From God, and just underneath that is a picture of my little princess. The lyrics speak for themselves.

Can’t Stay This Way (For God and Grace)

I can’t listen to you know

Your words are in my face

I would rather stay in anger

Then let You take me from this place


Misery loves my company

Or maybe it is me

That seeks out the dark recess

That loves the misery


And there You are

My bright and shining star

Looking through me

Smiling over me


You make it hard to stay this way

I just can’t stay this way


The darkness on my shoulder

Pulls for me to

But your eyes keep me connected

To the brightness of your soul


And there You are

My bright and shining star

Looking through me

Smiling over me


You make it hard to stay this way

I just can’t stay this way


All I need is to see your face

That keeps me from the darker place

Thank you for your beautiful face

You keep me from the darker place
