Sweet Memories
She puts his dinner on the table
When they’re thru he washes up the plates
After fifty odd years
Ya learn to give more than you take
She lies in bed reads her magazines
He falls asleep right in his chair
She calls him to bed
He falls up those stairs
How many days
Make up a life
Pulls down the shade
Gives a goodnight kiss to his wife
Baby can’t you see
You’re the better part of me
With our love
We made babies
And gave to me
Such sweet memories
She plants her autumn tulips
He mows his summer lawn
She dusts photos on the bureau
Wonders where the times has gone
Love ain’t like a Hollywood movie
Can’t be captured in a country song
It’s simple as saying sorry
in spite of who was wrong
They move in circles
Shared a bed of dreams
They take their walks in the woods
Another winter gives birth to spring
Baby can’t you see
You’re the better part of me
With our love
We made a family
And gave to me
Such sweet memories

A Song For Haley
A song written for my daughter.
She walks in the woods alone
She puts her thoughts down in a poem
Prayer flags and dolls upon her shelf
She’s original, holding true to herself
This world will never break her
She sings along with James Taylor
She dances, alone in her room
She tells her secrets, to the midnight moon
Fathers and daughters
A bond like no other
Believe me brother
I’ll always love her
Puts her make up on in the dark
Blind secrets, hidden in an innocent heart
Her smile makes my world brighter
Her openness sets the darkness on fire
She’s strong and she’s true
She seeks no approval, from me or you
A mystery in the blood we share
In her eyes, like a mirror I stare
Fathers and daughters
A bond like no other
Believe me brother
I’ll always love her
Where I’m Going
When I wrote this tune I had the feeling that this is the kind of music you might hear as you stroll up to an old porch in the Appalachian Mountains. And there would sit several fellas sipping on some moonshine and singing about death and glory of god. The song could use a fiddle, banjo and mandolin, but an acoustic guitar and vocal is fine too. Dance like you’re handling a poisonous serpent in one hand and shaking a tambourine in the other—–Hallelujah!!!!!!!
Heaven Help Us All
Original Song by Victor Uriz fit for times such as these.
