1.	Time Will Tell 03:54	lyrics	buy track
We tell ourselves we're this way Believing all we hear We like to think we're prisoners Of rage and guilt and fear We tell ourselves we're troubled Believing we're confused 'Cuz part of us is trying To make us lose But from this space of freedom, I declare There is something there And Time Will Tell What we've been waiting for will show Time Will Tell us what we have to know What we have to know We tell ourselves we're fragile Refusing to be brave By listing things I shouldn't be I make myself a slave I tell my friends I'm crazy In many silent ways It's just a plea for pity Or even praise
2.	I Am The Blues 03:18	lyrics	buy track
If you are lost And you been out in the cold for so long Don't come a-knockin If you need to rest your head Then find another bed 'Cuz I am bad news And if you're down You say you're needin a friend to talk to Just keep your shirt on And stay away from me Or you will surely see That I Am The Blues I got no sympathy 'Cuz I been around for so many thousand years I tell you don't think twice Just take my advice And pack up your stuff, it's for the better And don't expect a letter If you're surprised That you have no kind of fun when I'm round Just keep your shirt on I do this all the time You might say its my line Bein the Blues And when you're finally out the door I'll make the rain begin to pour And the moisture through you're body It will ooze So if pain and misery Are not quite your cup of tea Then please don't mess with me 'Cuz I Am The Blues Don't get messed up with me 'Cuz I Am The Blues
3.	Daylight 02:37	lyrics	buy track
Daylight Breaking in beams from Eastern skies Daylight Bursting the dreams that demons devise Daylight Coming in droves like geese in flight Loosed from coves of the night Daylight Bringing the hope of what's to be Daylight Scanning the scope of mornings to see Daylight Spreading her rays across the lawn Lift your gaze thru the haze Lift your praise To the Dawn Awaken the Dawn!
4.	Reaching for Your Hand 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Alone in a world so large It hardly seems right A world almost boundless Sealed within walls cold and white A breeze in a breezeless Fall Or a sun that pierces the rain Reach no one whose life is a wall A wall built on pillars of pain The windows show shining lights Fifteen in a row They tell you of sleepless nights Or of private parties among friends you know And they ask you why you can't understand Why no one is reaching for your hand The windows show shining lights Fifteen in a row They tell you of sleepless nights Or of private parties among friends you know While you sit still by the telephone Burn your life away by the telephone With your eyes blinded so you won't understand That Someone is reaching for your hand
5.	Now That There's You 03:08	lyrics	buy track
It's late sleeping Or wait keeping A date someone forgot Spend time knitting Or I'm fitting A dress Mother just bought Be sure the porch light is on Leave it on each night For someone may be coming And sleep sound when the day is done Or watch sheep running one by one It's grief mounting Or leaf counting By trees shading the sun Spend time cooking Or I'm looking For rules to games played by one Days turning to nights Seeing nights go by I turn them into mornings It's time wasting as time will do Glad to be with you Now That There's You So glad there's you

about

Keva recently portrayed the female lead Taura in a workshop of my musical EDEN IN BABYLON. She so astonished me with her singing, we decided to put together an album of songs I've written for female voice, over the years. The album is being released with five tunes as of 10/8/21. There will be five more to follow -- all for ten bucks plus.

about

Andy Pope

I was born at 11:30 on a Friday night, when all across America, people were partying, and surely there was a standing ovation taking place at some Performing Arts venue, somewhere. With all those bizarre influences acting upon me at the moment of my birth, you'd think people would cut me some slack concerning my wild and oft-erratic personality. ... more
