Songs: Longing

The Drive to Repair

Verse 1 Now the drive left me with memories
of how it used to be
back when weekend family time
meant you'd be here with me

A young man on a mission
you were full of attitude
You looked just like your daddy
you used to be my little dude

Chorus Oh~ the music starts to play
and the tears begin to flow
my heart beats a little faster
mixed emotions as I go

Oh~ The music it rings true
words tell my story well
but those days are behind me now
I have a new story to tell

Verse 2 So I reach my destination
as he's walking out the door
my little dude is now a man
so different from before

We spend some time together
A new chapter has begun
After so much time without him
I finally hug my son

Chorus Oh~ The music starts to play
and the tears begin to flow
My heart beats a little faster
Mixed emotions as I go

Oh~ The music rings so true
words tell my story well
But those days are behind me now
I have a new story to tell.

    everything just turns gray
    Darkness seems

    Dreams In The Heart

    We danced beneath the stars,

    Longing for the day / when I can feel / young again.

    My youth just seemed to slip away / what do I do now?

    I'm not old
