Shooting Stars and fast moving CarsRumble through the roads of my mindTick-e-ty Tock, the old sounds of the clockSay's it's almost a quarter past nine
The moons surely rising, the stars are a glidingAnd Mr. Sandman is ready to roamHurry off to bed and put your pillow under your headHe might just be visiting you tonight at homeDrifting off to sleep is such a wonderful featAdventures you'll enjoy on your ownMaking new friends on a journey to no endA secrete life that is yours all aloneDon't be afraid of those gobble lee goo'sOr those pirates drifting to sea on their boatsThere's no need to worry there just in your dreamsLike rainbow clouds and cotton candy floatsOh that sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerPlease, don't take my Dreams a wayTo see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way DreamsWe could have so much funUnder an ice cream sun and laugh our time awaySing some M & M songs the whole day longUntil we awake to brand new day
Pluto say's hey kiddo don't get out of bedAs Snakel Puss laughs and says, ah it's OKKKKKKKKPopeye yell's, were gone in a minute after I eat me spinachPoo say's all aboard my Banana Split SleighOh that Sky's full of colors of make believe wondersExciting every step of the wayCan't you let me stay for just a little bit longerWorry not Catalina, we won't take your Dreams a way
To see this through a child's eyesOn the path to where stars brightly beamThrough a different world of twist and twirlsWon't you come to my Milky Way Dreams
Catalina say's, please come join me, on my Milky Way Dreams

Shooting Stars and fast moving Cars
Rumble through the roads of my mind
Tick-e-ty Tock, the old sounds of the clock
Say's it's almost a quarter past nine

The moons surely rising, the stars are a gliding
And Mr. Sandman is ready to roam
Hurry off to bed and put your pillow under your head
He might just be visiting you tonight at home

Drifting off to sleep is such a wonderful feat
Adventures you'll enjoy on your own
Making new friends on a journey to no end
A secrete life that is yours all alone

Don't be afraid of those gobble lee goo's
Or those pirates drifting to sea on their boats
There's no need to worry there just in your dreams
Like rainbow clouds and cotton candy floats

Oh that sky's full of colors of make believe wonders
Exciting every step of the way
Can't you let me stay for just a little bit longer
Please, don't take my Dreams a way

To see this through a child's eyes
On the path to where stars brightly beam
Through a different world of twist and twirls
Won't you come to my Milky Way Dreams

We could have so much fun
Under an ice cream sun and laugh our time away
Sing some M & M songs the whole day long
Until we awake to brand new day

Pluto say's hey kiddo don't get out of bed
As Snakel Puss laughs and says, ah it's OKKKKKKKK
Popeye yell's, were gone in a minute after I eat me spinach
Poo say's all aboard my Banana Split Sleigh

Oh that Sky's full of colors of make believe wonders
Exciting every step of the way
Can't you let me stay for just a little bit longer
Worry not Catalina, we won't take your Dreams a way

To see this through a child's eyes
On the path to where stars brightly beam
Through a different world of twist and twirls
Won't you come to my Milky Way Dreams

Catalina say's, please come join me, on my Milky Way Dreams

SEASONS WILL SOMEDAY CHANGE

Memories, what are they really, a combination of good and bad, laughter and tears
Moments that are now hard to remember, glimpses of our past, momentary flashbacks
A look back when we were young and foolish and never carried an ounce of fear
Now, toward the end of our journey we would give anything to have those moments back

The storms of life pass us by so quickly as do those beautiful days of our life
Sadly, our yesterdays seem so very far away and our tomorrows, to dam close for comfort
Just like that child of yesterday, who grew into a beautiful woman who became my wife
Now scared from a life of beauty and appreciation, to now a life of uncertainty and discomfort

People always wanting more, never taking a moment to appreciate what they have right now
That's until those years go quickly by and now all they want is more of what they have right now
How do you say goodbye to love, peace, hope, and those who have meant so much
It's like saying goodbye to a smile, laugh, sigh, a tear or a loved one's gentle touch

I've reached a point in my life where I am so sad because my memories make me lonely
And the truth is, I'm lonely because those same memories have now made me so very sad
Jesus, I ask you to please help me make it through just one more day
Because the thoughts that run through my mind, seem to make me lose my way

Time it waits for no one my friends, and the rivers of life will forever pass our way
Like the leaves of autumn, our souls fall to the ground and sadly, just blow away
And we are left with our thoughts of yesterdays and how our tomorrows might feel so strange
Losing loved ones is life's way of showing us, how everyone's seasons will someday change
