If you wake tomorrow morn

If you wake tomorrow morn

To frost covered limb

Take care where you step

Be wary of whim

For the chill made brittle

What once was warm

Shut off from light

Anticipating the storm

Footfalls leave proof

Of your reckless ways

Compressed by the weight

Signifying your lack of praise

And when light shines

Upon the damage done

Tracks turn to mist

Rising toward the sun

Yet the pain persists

Though no proof remains

Of a life once loved

And a love wrought with pains

Where the pavement ends



Where the pavement ends

And the road turns rough

My journey begins

And I call my own bluff

Tis the light of life that I request

To receive without fear

An illuminated soul as blessed

As Your mothers virgin tear

Would the heavens open to me

Your love shall guide me home

The Fathers hand will set me free

And no more shall my soul roam

Can you read my mind?


Can you see my future?
Can you read my mind?
What does my future hold?
Or does my soul leave you blind?

In the pitch of my spirit
where my secrets lay
can you penetrate the fortress
built to contain my faults?

Are you a fraud?
a charlatan
preying upon the weak
in the bidding of the adversary?

I cannot see your path
but this i know
beware with whom you've aligned
your partnership for your soul

When I’m away you’re on my mind


When I’m away you’re on my mind

The love we’ve shared rushes back

Was I a fool or was I blind

Now it’s time to take you back


Another step along this rocky path

So much time spent in the past

I’ve begun to hate looking back

I want a love that was meant to last


Looking forward is what I’ll do

At things that make me whole

I’ll lay each brick in my spirit wall

Spreading love will be my goal


When I’m away you’re on my mind

The love we’ve shared rushes back

Was I a fool or was I blind

Now it’s time to take you back


We can’t undo the things we’ve done

No point keeping the pain

To make the most of what I have

Chase away the clouds and reveal the sun


Tomorrow morning is when I’ll start

To look at you in a different light

Cast away suspicion and darkness

An open innocence of the heart


When I’m away you’re on my mind

The love we’ve shared rushes back

Was I a fool or was I blind

Now it’s time to take you back


Will you take me in your arms

And love me with no regret

Will you hold me when morning comes

Remember a time when we first met


Will you speak to me at night

As I lay by your side

And tell me of your day

Then hold me tight


Will your dreams be of me

As I watch you sleep

Will you wake in sweet satisfaction

Will it be easy to see


When I’m away you’re on my mind

The love we’ve shared rushes back

Was I a fool or was I blind

Now it’s time to take you back


Now it’s time to take you back
