Beautyway

I Took, I Let Him Go Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty You led me through rambling lands Highest mountains, cloudless skies You were fearless, fast and strong With autumn restless in your eyes He kept me here on the ground Safe and sure, never alone He would always keep me warm He would always lead me home I took you, I let him go He shows up in memories I hear his name in poems and prayers I can’t believe how far I’ve come Only to find he’s always here So off you go to take your stand And I stay here and hold my own I can’t believe how far I’ve come Only to see you’ve never grown I’ll never have the chance to know I took another road instead But he turned up at my door I know I’d let him in again Beautyway Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty By the rapids I was born Like a rose without a thorn I was happy as the morning sun And my journey had just begun So I did my little dance Till I lost my innocence And then my heart was torn In the lightning in a thunder storm And here we are again After all that we’ve come from But don’t you worry darling The best is yet to come I know there’a a beautyway And it’s coming our way Like a hero who is pure You were absolutely sure Everything was going to be all right If you just fought the good fight So you wandered in the dark Placing bets with all the sharks In your armor there was a chink You were very close to the brink I feel your halo glowing It wraps around me oh so slow And after all is said and done There’s only one for me I know there’s a beautyway And it’s coming our way Modern World Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty Don’t know if it’s the helicopter Spinning above me Don’t know if it’s the subway train Down below me Don’t know if it’s the streaming traffic Running beside me All I know it’s the modern world Burn, burn, burn Don’t know if it’s the smokestack smoking Across the river Don’t know if it’s my baby’s cigarette Makes me quiver Don’t know if it’s the twisted news The paper delivers All I know it’s the modern world Burn, burn, burn But if you’d only hold me in your arms I know we’d find a place to get away And if you’d only let me know I’m yours I could make it through another day Don’t know if it’s the ozone layer Disappearing Don’t know if it’s the rubble in the Streets they are clearing Don’t know if it’s the pixel light That keeps appearing All I know it’s the modern world Burn, burn, burn Mystical Love Poem Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty Time passed through us East, west, atomic clock I turned the minutes into hours One by one Come take my hand I’ll lead you to a quiet place Where I can gaze into your gentle face There are shadows dancing here beside us They are waiting for the chance to guide us Through the light of moon and stars They show us the way to our hearts There were shadows dancing here around us As the downing of the morning found us Still remembering the place That showed us the meaning of grace My Sweetest Love From year to year, from day to day I love you more and more So close your eyes Until the misty silence falls Upon your ears, upon these unlit walls There are shadows dancing here beside us They are waiting for the chance to guide us Through the light of moon and stars They show us the way to our hearts Shirley Temple Girl Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty I speak in tongues No one sees me on these stairs Shirley Temple girl There are no words for little girls Who hide and seek their days away Kewpie dolls have painted faces When she smiles, the boys will praise for her Sing a song for what has gone We all grow up and walk away where’s my mommy, she’s so lovely Maybe I’ll be her one day Umbrella, cherry, plastic sword When will this be my reward I’m glamorous in white knee-highs With bubbles bursting in my eyes Can I have another drink You know my favourite color’s pink Rub and Buddha’s belly on your way outside Down the sunrise highway, we’ll all go for a ride I sing my song for all the China men I’m daughter for them all They loved me at the Savoy Inn But beauty fades and fortune calls I’ll Always Be Your Girl Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty You may run, you may hide But without love You’ll never make it to the other side You may give and you may take But without love You’ll never know what you can really make You thought you were holding up the world You thought you could be another hero And when you came down you finally found There’s only one place to go And dreams will fade like falling stars But I’ll always love you for who you are And my arms will hold you still Because I’ll always be your girl You can stop, you can go But without love to guide you There’s something you’ll never know And you can doubt, you can believe But without love you’ll never find out What you really need Sometimes I wish I could change my name Trade in the past and start over again And when I came home I know I would learn To be true to who I am Marriage of Roses Deanna Kirk What can I ask you to give me Except a smile and a word How can I tell if you love me Through al the stories you’ve heard When all the petals have fallen When all the leaves have turned to brown Will we be true to this calling And keep this love we have found And yes I believe In a marriage of roses And what would you give For a marriage of roses Under the fringe of your lashes Inside of the warmth of your bed Will it be good to be married It’s what they’ve always said Like all the poets who have fallen We lay down with our eyes And hand in hand we take flowers And hope we’ll become wise And seasons change And winters come And seeds will grow Where planted Seasons change And winters come And love is where You find it What can I ask you to give me Except a smile and your word How can I tell if you love me Through all the stories you’ve heard We’ll break a glass To remind us That sometimes things May go wrong But even then I make a promise And offer you this song And yes I believe in a marriage of roses Dance of the Hours Pat Daugherty Once upon a night Time, devine, dance of the hours Hours were holy, houries, dancing ladies Who kept time in heaven And tended the star souls Dance of the hours Each houri, ruled a house, in the sky And that’s the reason why There are twelve of the hours I know the meanings of the numbers Dance of the hours Now we have dollars Dollars per hour, hours per day The night has been taken away Silence Remembers Everything Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty I cared for you so much I cried for you, so what I’ve longed for you enough I’ve lied for you, now hush Silence remembers everything Silence will honor us completely It’s memory is pure Even now I can see you Even now I can feel you Only time can heel rhe pain of goobye I know the reasons why We had to say goodbye But both of us were weak Now there’s no way to speak I dreamed about the night You held me in your arms We were in ecstasy We never would be free Even now I can see you Even now I can feel you Only time can heal the pain of goodbye Me, I’m doing fine I have no regrets You never will be mine I’ll never forget Sweetest Place Deanna Kirk, Pat Daugherty The wind is blowing And the leaves are shaking just a little bit Over my shoulder I can’t help but look back on the sweetest place I’ve ever been I want to go back again Take me You are the sweetest place That I’ve ever been Take me The air that I’m breathing Is pulling me in so deeply On the horizon I still see the traces of the sweetest place I’ve ever been I’m Still Walking With You Pat Daugherty I feel you close even though you are far I see you the light that’s shining on me from your star Your voice calls to me, of how life can be I can’t forget all that you gave to me So don’t you worry about where I’m going to be I’m still walking with you I know I’m never going to leave you I know you’re never leaving me No matter where, I may go on this earth You know I’m going to live my life for all its worth I’m still walking with you Sleep Deanna Kirk Not ready yet
