Silent Partner
In the heat of an evening
When only prisoners sleep
She said she couldn't
Come to the garden
See an old man wheel
She said her dreams
What too far to be thought of
As scars too white to view
She said she couldn't
Come to the garden
See a blind man kneel
She sailed away
To a blue horizon
In floating thoughts she'd sway
She said she couldn't
Come to the garden
See an old man pray
She wished them luck
As they left on their journey
Maybe she'd join them soon
But she lost her grip
At the tip of life'
Good Love Comin' On
(Steve Mandile/Sherrie Austin)
Staring out an open window
Breathing deep as the winds of change blow
Through my hair
Still he's never far behind me
Somehow he always finds me
No matter where
With one hand on my heart
And one foot in the door
He's reaching in and coming back for more
But don't you let go
Heart hold on 'til he's gone
Stand your ground before the damage has been done done
Once again you know all too well just how this story ends
Don't give in, don't you listen to those ghosts inside your head
Heart be still, heart be strong
Heart hold on
He sees what's inside me
Reads me like an open diary
He know's every line
I look away and close the curtain
The final act is still uncertain
But the next move is mine
It would be so easy
Just to let him in again
An old familiar face but he's no friend
Don't you let go
Heart hold on 'til he's gone
Stand your ground before the damage has been done done
Once again you know all too well just how this story ends
Don't give in, don't you listen to those ghosts inside your head
Heart be still, heart be strong
Heart hold on
