Homecoming

there is a place
where my heart is glad
'midst the trees and the forests
of the place I had
and there is a place
where my soul still sings
through the toil and the tumult
for the joy it brings
that is home
where waves crash upon the shoreline and it snows
and there are streets
where my memories dance
to the music of our friendship
and a young romance
and in these times
when I'm close to tears
the sweet melodies of home
will embrace my fears
that is home
where waves crash upon the shoreline and it snows
that is home

Blossom Tree

fairy tales whispered under summer skies
you lost your footing in her deep blue eyes
but her lips were closed and your soul was numbed by pride
so you walked away, a lonely man
swore you wouldn't let yourself love again
never let your heart mistake affection for a friend
but life is made for joy
and the heart is made for love
yes, life is made for joy
and this beating heart is rushing with love
the days go by, so the story goes
but you'll found more love then you thought you'd ever know
through the veil of tears, what's true takes time to grow
and the beloved sings under the blossom tree
hurry my love, will you marry me
the day is young and our spirits they are free

Hyssop

will you walk with me
through sorrow's garden
far from the maddening crowd
where boughs hang low
with fruit untold
and where the face is bare 'neath the shroud
will you walk with me
through sorrow's garden
where the heart beats with blood and with fire
and where soul is exposed
and where hyssop grows
where the flame burns bright with desire
will you walk with me
through sorrow's garden?
come, take my trembling hand
where the pain is shown
seeds of healing are sown
for this time of darkness will end

Planting Seeds

if truth be told
it is hard to love
harder to endure
the cost it will take
and if truth be told
patience is a virtue
and the skill required
makes the grown man break
but this fertile ground
was watered by the tears of our past
and planted by scarred hands
these seeds dug deep will last
and what can i give
other than who i am
but i fear i don't have enough
for what this costs
and my words they cut
deeper than i'd like them to
so show me how to find
what we have lost
