Here Without You

Here Without You

Here without you memories locked in our past

someday our memory will be just a photograph

they cant take away the things locked inside

cant erase the memories of you.. are mine

someday together, each other we will find

until then all I can do is sit here

sit here without you

So dont fade away

dont fade away in time

dont fade away from my mind

Here without you memories we wont out last

someday our memory will be just a photograph

dont take away, dont take away from my eyes

wont erase the memories of you.. in mine

someday together, our love we will find

until then all I can do is sit here

sit here without you

So dont fade away

dont fade away from inside

dont fade away from my mind

cause Im here

cause Im here... without you

Missing You

Missing You

I remember the times we had

holding your hand, holding each other

in times of good and times of bad.

it only makes it harder

cause

Missing You is an empty feeling,

a broken heart for you

its the hardest thing I do

the hardest thing is

missing you

Nothing could take what we had

a kiss from you, kissing each other

in times of good and times of bad

it only makes it harder

cause

Missing You is an empty feeling,

a broken heart for you

its the hardest thing I do

the hardest thing is

missing you

I will always hold what we had

seeing your eyes, looking in mine

in times of good and times of bad.

it only makes it harder

cause

Missing You is an empty feeling,

a broken heart for you

its the hardest thing I do

the hardest thing is

missing you

the hardest thing I do

the hardest thing is

missing you

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'd always be close...close to my heart

and saving some innocent lives

They need me here now

I will make good on my vow

and as I promised to you

You'd always be close...close to my heart

Oh I know you promised me

and I'm so proud of your life

and I understand.. I cried

They carried you home

with tears in their eyes

handed me your colors.

..with utmost pride.

*whispered* He saved every last one our lives

Now he's home to stay this time

We left no one

We left no one... behind

You promised me you'd come home

You promised me that night

You'll always be close....close in my heart

Just as I do

Just as you did ..I will always love you.

I See Dead People

 I See Dead People

Walking through time in a grave of darkness

with my light shining dim on the walls of shadows

tripping on lost bones of death with spirits pulling at me

I feel my death is near, but I run and hide behind a black rose.

I see dead people all around

I see dead people that make no sound

I see dead people I can’t be found

I see dead people but I’m not going down

Running in darkness fog rolls o’er my feet

I see the bones through the walls reaching for my flesh

I can’t let them touch my soul, my heart, my life, or just me

I feel the cold breath of lifelessness on my shoulder through the darkness

I see dead people all around

I see dead people that make no sound

I see dead people I can’t be found

I see dead people but I’m not going down

I can’t be found

I’m not going down

dead people all around

hide, make no sound

I can’t be found

I won’t be found

dead eyes at me

let me be

Oh running in darkness, running for a light to find

No. I won’t let them take it…this body my flesh…I can’t see

wishing my light would…my light would…my light would shine

Oh I won’t let them take it…this body is mine…this body is me

I see dead people all around

I see dead people that make no sound

I see dead people, I can’t be found

I see dead people but I’m not going down

oh no…I’m not going…down…

Garden of Stone

 Garden Of Stone

I stand here alone in a sea of stone

a place where life is the end and time is just around the bend

with beautifull flowers placed and green grass goes to waste

In a garden where nothing grows but rows of manmade stone

So please

take me up take me away dont make me stay here

I dont want to be just another stone

in a garden no one wants to call home

in a garden of nothing but stone.

a place you visit with a tear a place you know you'll end up here

its a sea of stone that will someday bring you to a new home.

a garden no one wants to see its a garden where no one wants be

its a garden that even waits for me

So please

take me up take me away dont make me stay here

I dont want to be just another stone

in a garden no one wants to call home

in a garden of nothing but stone.

In a garden of stone

But In the end we find no choice but to be here when its our time

its our time its our time when its our time stones all in line

when its our time to be in the garden of stone in the garden of stone

so cold in the garden of stone

So please

take me up take me away dont make me stay here

I dont want to be just another stone

in a garden no one wants to call home

in a garden of nothing

of nothing but stone.

In a garden of stone

oh so cold

garden of stone

This Cowboy Rides Alone

This Cowboy Rides Alone

(c) Copyright 8/22/10 Slim Cahill

 During the night she passed away
 buried her on a hot... summer... day
He saddled up took what he needed
 a picture a locket and her memories
 looking back at the old place
 just gave another tear on his face

He would watch her sleep in her restless nights
trying to cumfort her wishing she'd be all right
As She closed her eyes she squeezed his hand so tight
He knelt down next to her,
and kissed her for one last time
Then the angles came and this man cried....
this man cried

His life no longer the same the place no longer a home
with a picture a locket and her memories
This cowboy rides alone

 He could see her standing at the door
smiling as she had done so many times before..
Hanging clothes up on the line, making dinner, a little wine
You'd see love in her eyes,
And You could see love in her smile..
Thats how everyone knew she was his life...
this man cried

But now with just a picture a locket and her on his mind
 he closed the gate for one last time

His life no longer the same the place no longer a home
with a picture a locket and her memories
This cowboy rides alone

Another tear as he turned away...
 buried her on a hot summer day..
The old place no longer a home.
.This cowboy, this cowboy rides alone..
a picture a locket and her memories
 were the only things, he'd charish these...
This cowboy rides alone
She was his only one

This Cowboy Rides Alone (Slim Cahill & Neil Cotton)

 Buried her on a hot summer day
She is gone but memories remain

He watched her sleep that restless night
He stroked her hair hoping she's all right
She closed her eyes squeezed his hand tight
He kissed her lips one last time

Then her angels came and this man cried....
this man cried

His life is no longer the same
Their place is no longer a home
With her picture in her locket and his memories
This cowboy rides alone
This cowboy rides alone

He sees her hanging clothes on the line
Humming as she’s done so many times
She makes dinner,pours red wine
There’s true love in her blue eyes.

She was his angel before she died
This man cried

His life is no longer the same
Their place is no longer a home
With her picture in her locket and his memories
This cowboy rides alone
This cowboy rides alone

He buried her one hot summer day
A tear fell as he turned away
With his life in his hand and her on his mind
He closed the gate one last, one last time.

His life is no longer the same
Their place is no longer a home
With her picture in her locket and her memories
This cowboy rides alone
This cowboy rides alone
She’s his only one
This cowboy rides alone

In Your Dreams

In Your Dreams

As the sun falls softly from the sky and the evening becomes the night

I can see her standing in the shadows of the midnight moon lit sky

Her beauty brings the daylight to the night and desert sand into oceans tide

As your mind fades into a world beyond a reality of make believe skies

In a strange land untouched and not seen in anyones opened eyes

You can see her skin without matter with more beauty than morning sunrise

The Beauty of your dreams

a dream like no other

you dream to be

you dream to be

her lover

The mind of someones world hidden from life that cant be touched by real time

In an epic universe and time made perfect by the thoughts of our minds

You can feel the texture of reality in it, thats unreal, a created world only you find

As the women of your dreams become the search of reality outside your mind

You realize only she will never leave but hold you in her dreams a lifetime

And a dream world filled with color at times, is just a creation in your mind

so

When the sun falls softly from the sky and the evening becomes the night

and you see her standing in the shadows of the midnight moon lit sky

Its only a dream, the Beauty of your dreams a dream like no other

When you dream to be, you dream to be her lover.
