Lease a Birthday is actually Lisa's birthday.
This was my first song written on a guitar. After losing my better half of many years I met someone who's life spirit inspired me to write again. Lisa was my first muse in a long dark time in my life. Her perspective allowed me to reconnect with myself and get moving again. Did I love her, No... But my reawakening gave me joy. Lisa you were the catalyst. Thanks.

Lease a Birthday
I woke up from a bad dream The world changed round me I’m wandering where my world had gone When you walk on brittle ice Make sure choice is your own Or least know how to walk on water I Found that all I had Was written in my heart I wonder how much it cost Take that page away You’ll find the words remain And I’ll be right there Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone
Can’t find the mountains They seem so far away Feel them standing there against the wind Bright lights in the city They all smell all the same Remember when it all washed away And when I want to reach out For a dream to call my own You tell me it’s everywhere This gives me all I need To take Living stand To be all I can Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone
Drifting to the shoreline I find tracks in the sand No one seems to know where they go Walk with me this moment Down a strangers path And help me, find myself. Taking time think out Where islands are the soul Mirrored on the evening grown old Maybe for this short while Maybe for this night We know we’re not alone Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone Oh me, Oh me Oh where have I Gone
