I always knew you were there
Somewhere
I always knew there was a way
Someday
I always knew you'd come true
Somehow
And I'm believing it now
You're so sweet
And you're so true
Everything I ever knew
Everything I wanna do
It's all living in you
By Richard W. Bray
it only takes you
to open up the door
you wash away the blue
you refresh and you restore
it only took you
to melt my frozen heart
you fix me just like glue
when I’m falling apart
In a cold and bitter world
You’re a special kind of girl
it only takes you
to turn blizzards into fire
doo be doo be doo be doo
there ain’t no way to get higher
it only takes you
to right me when I’m wrong
if the world disappears
there will still be your song
by Richard W. Bray
Fill the world with song
Sing until you're silly
Wild and beguiled
By Roses and Lilys
Stars on Alabama
The way you look tonight
Baby I'm amazed
When you hold me tight
Nobody to see us
Nobody to hear us
Pay no mind to stupid words
With nobody near us
Those ordinary things
That I gotta do
I throw em out the window
To be alone with you
By Richard W. Bray
Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
–Hank Williams, Cold Cold Heart
Don’t blame yourself
For your broken heart
It might feel heroic
But it isn’t very smart
There’s something you know
But you’ll never understand
She made you so happy
But she didn’t give a damn
You could spend some time with a real live girl
But you’d rather keep bleeding in Imaginary World
You’re a really sweet guy
But you gotta let it go
It wasn’t your fault
When she stomped on your soul
I really wanna love you
But I can’t compete
With a sad sad song
That you wanna repeat
You could spend some time with a real live girl
But you’d rather keep bleeding in Imaginary World
By Richard W. Bray
What holds all the molecules together?
Was there a beginning of time?
Does space go on forever?
What makes you so clever?
Is there any reason in my rhyme?
I wonder about everything I see
Who made all the tygers and the trees?
I wonder why I met you
And what you’re gonna do
Wonder is good enough for meI wonder about things I’ll never know
I wonder if our love is gonna grow
What’s inside the sun?
The biggest number plus one?
Wonder is good enough for me
by Richard W. Bray
I'm sad we broke each other's hearts
Didn't want to leave you blue
I'm sad we'll always be apart
I hate the stupid things I do
I'm glad for every moment
I got to spend with you
Your sweet and blessèd soul
Your heart was always true
A snowflake and a rainbow
A sunset and a flower
They fade and fall from view
But they never lose their power
I'm glad for every moment
I got to spend with you
Your sweet and blessèd soul
Your heart was always true
by Richard W. Bray
in a fog
in a flutter
inattentive
in love
in debt
in danger
insolvent
in love
in the dumps
in a pickle
injured
in love
in the groove
in the saddle
invincible
in love
by Richard W. Bray
I can dunk a basketball
With my left ear
I can sing a sonnet
While I'm drinking a beer
I'm pretty excellent at everything I do
And my best thing is being with you
I can program a computer
While washing my car
I figure out physics
Just sitting in a bar
I'm pretty excellent at everything I do
And my best thing is being with you
I can skip a stone
Forty-seven times
All the ladies swoon
When I make up my rhymes
I'm pretty excellent at everything I doAnd my best thing is being with you
I made a rocket ship
And took it to the moon
I fought off a grizzly
With a fork and spoon
I'm pretty excellent at everything I doAnd my best thing is being with you
by Richard W. Bray
I almost shriveled up and died
But then I met you when I did
You taught me how to fly
Made me feel like a kid
We never said goodbye
We just went our separate ways
And your melody renews
Day after day
We never had it all
And we had so much more
Blankets and pillows
And cuddling on the floor
Owning every moment
Life is just a glance
Motion never ends:
The dancers and the dance
by Richard W. Bray
Time was somewhere else
In a universe of two
Bewitched and bedazzled
There was only you
The light, the air
The space between
Charged by the sparks
That cannot be seen
Colors overflow
Molecules conspire
Angels hold their breath
And stop to admire
The light, the air
The space between
Charged by the sparks
That cannot be seen
by Richard W. Bray
