I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island

Meet on the ledge
We're gonna meet on the ledge
When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends
Meet on the ledge
We're gonna meet on the ledge
If you really mean it, it all comes round again

dayvidg Sun 08-Jan-23 11:54:16

Meet on the ledge
We're gonna meet on the ledge
When my time is up I'm gonna see all my friends
Meet on the ledge
We're gonna meet on the ledge
If you really mean it, it all comes round again

Hello, it's me
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
To go over everything
They say that time's supposed to heal ya, but I ain't done much healing
Hello, can you hear me?
I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet

Grandyma Sat 07-Jan-23 22:50:14

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

MiniMoon Sat 07-Jan-23 21:27:27

Let's all get up and dance to a song
That was a hit before your mother was born
Though she was born a long long time ago
Your mother should know (your mother should)
Your mother should know

dayvidg Sat 07-Jan-23 20:24:30

On a black day in a black month
At the black bottom of the sea
Your mother gave birth to you
And died immediately
'Cause you can't have two killers
Living in the same pad
And when your mother knew that her time had come
She was really rather glad

LadyHonoriaDedlock Sat 07-Jan-23 18:51:16

So I took a journey
Threw my world into the sea
With me went the teacher
Who found fun instead of me
Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand, lying there in bed
I try to socialize but I can't seem to find
What I was looking for, got something on my mind
Then the teacher told me
It had been a lot of fun
Thanked me for his ticket
And all that I had done

dayvidg Sat 07-Jan-23 17:56:13

You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so, become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by

pandapatch Sat 07-Jan-23 17:49:55

Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

dayvidg Sat 07-Jan-23 17:03:18

I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
And one by one they disappear,
I wish that I was flying with them
Now you're not here.
Like the sun through the trees you came to love me,
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away...

Caleo Sat 07-Jan-23 12:27:48

Oh, it's a long, long while from May to December
But the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game

Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you

Alioop Sat 07-Jan-23 12:23:51

Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringin'
In the key that are souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh yeah

MiniMoon Sat 07-Jan-23 11:53:34

April, come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain
May, she will stay
Resting in my arms again
June, she'll change her tune
In restless walks she'll prowl the night
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight
August, die she must
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold
September, I'll remember
A love once new has now grown old

Caleo Sat 07-Jan-23 11:48:21

We must stop meeting in the post, Lady D!

Caleo Sat 07-Jan-23 11:47:05

Sweet-heart, sweet-heart, sweet-heart,
Will you love me ever?
Will you remember this day,
When we were happy in May,
My dearest one?

Jeanette:

Sweet-heart, sweet-heart, sweet-heart,
Though our paths may sever,
To life’s last faint ember
I will remember
Spring-time, Love-time, May.

LadyHonoriaDedlock Sat 07-Jan-23 11:45:43

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down,
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down and I say,
If I am guilty I will pay!

Grandyma Sat 07-Jan-23 10:33:22

Answer me, oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me, sweetheart

dayvidg Fri 06-Jan-23 22:55:05

"The problem is all inside your head", she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover

Caleo Fri 06-Jan-23 14:49:58

You went away and left me long time ago
Now you're knocking on my door
I hear you knocking, but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you been

I begged you not to go but you said goodbye
And now you're telling me all your lies
I hear you knocking, but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you been, oh yeah

You better get back to your used-to-be
'Cause you're kinda love ain't good for me
I hear you knocking, but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you been

I told you way back in Fifty-two
That I would never go with you
I hear you knocking but you can't come in
I hear you knocking, go back where you been

pandapatch Fri 06-Jan-23 14:38:27

Mama take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Caleo Fri 06-Jan-23 14:08:12

Hearke, hearke, the Larke at Heavens gate sings,
and Phœbus gins arise,
[His Steeds to water at those Springs
on chalic'd Flowres that lyes:]1
And winking Mary-buds begin to ope their Golden eyes
With every thing that pretty is, my Lady sweet arise:
Arise arise.

LadyHonoriaDedlock Fri 06-Jan-23 13:52:39

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Caleo Fri 06-Jan-23 13:08:03

Sorry, Lady D, I must have clicked a moment later than you.

Caleo Fri 06-Jan-23 13:06:31

Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world
Sweet the rains new fall, sunlit from Heaven
Like the first dewfall on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where His feet pass
