A touch of Mozart?Below are the first verses of each of the songs featured on the CD "SONGWRITER "


1 Don't Burn The Bridge Down
Well, you packed my bags and you stood them at the door
You're burning bridges and you don't want me here anymore
Okay, Baby, you're the boss
But don't burn the bridge down before I get across.
2 She Has A Way
She has a way of walking
Light on her feet
She has away of talking
Sweet, sugar sweet
3 The Songwriter
She didn't say a lot to him, there wasn't much to say
She just picked up the baby and walked away
He knew what to do if he wanted her to stay
Songs he wrote about leaving started coming true today
4 They Have Their Dreams
She has her heart set on Hollywood
She wants to be a movie star
She has the looks and a taste for caviare
She has a dream, she'll go far
5 I Should Not Be Dancing With You
I should not be dancing with you
It's really unfair, don't you know
The music is soft and the lights are down low
And I should not be dancing with you
6 It's Time To Go
I'm seeing all the signs,
They stare me in the face
I thought I knew where I stood with you
That's clearly not the case
7 Emma
Emma stays at all the best hotels in town
She wears the finest clothes and diamond rings
No one sees the pain she hides behind her smile
Her young body pays for all these things
8 Nothing Reminds Me Of You
You walk out of here taking all of your things
Did you think I would lay down and die?
I'm telling you now that is not what I did
And you know I won't throw you a lie
9 Somewhere Between
Somewhere between what is and what might have been
Is a lifetime of dreams gone to rust
And somewhere around is the love that we found
Blowing in the wind like dust
10 You, Only You
You help me make it through the darkest hour of night
Shining like a beacon and I walk in your light
When trouble is the captain and I sail a stormy sea
You wrap me in your arms and shelter me
11 I Waited For You
I waited for you
You never came
I sat by the window
Calling your name
12 I Remember Rosie
You can see her every morning at the citadel in town
Raising hell for Jesus as she lays that Gospel down
With her tambourine and bonnet and her Bible in her hand
Calling to God's children, "Come and join His happy band"
