Treading Water
I have no answer to the question you raise
I have no recollection of those distant days
A singer looking for a song
A writer who got it wrong
A showman with nothing to show
A traveller with nowhere to go
Treading water, stealing time
A poet looking for a rhyme
A drum beat out of time
A preacher with now soul
The rock that just won't roll
Treading water, stealing time

The Waning Moon
It's all about the writers and the tales they tell
It's all about the hopes that rest in the wishing-well
It's all about the roll of the spheres and the song they sing
It's all about the givers and the gift they bring
It's written in the stars, what will be will be
It's all about mind over matter, staying strong
It's about the dreams that shatter when it all goes wrong
It's all about the waning moon and the rising sun
It's all about the tears we cry when we lose someone
It's written in the stars, what will be will be
Mind over matter

Rolling With The Waves
You got to ride your luck sometimes
Like a wild pony
And when the hard times come along
You got to hold fast
You got to take your chances
When they come your way
Good times don't come easy
Don't let them fly away
You got to feel it
Let 'em know you believe it
If you've got something to say
Say it like you mean it
You got to roll with the waves
Turn with the tide
Bend when the wind blows
You've got nothing to hide

Looking For Sunshine
Chasing rainbows, and that crock of gold
A story never written, a tale untold
You went looking for that brave new world
You searched in vain
You looked for sunshine, you found rain
No time for hesitation, no time to lose
No time for playing games, gotta make a move
You went looking for the high life
You searched in vain
You looked for sunshine, you found rain
