An Hour of Sunshine

Draw the curtains, pull the shades
An hour of sunshine, then it fades
I think of you, I don’t know why
So long ago we said goodbye
Nothing ever seemed for certain
Nothing ever stopped the hurting
Watching winter turn to spring
I remember everything
A lovely smile, a perfect day
Always half a world away
Nothing ever seemed for certain
Nothing ever stopped the hurting
Another year has come and gone
And still I sing for you this song
Writing letters in my mind
Knowing what I’d hope to find
Nothing ever seemed for certain
Nothing ever stopped the hurting
I wonder if we’ll meet again
At the Gare de l’Est at ten?
I’d give up everything that’s mine
Just for one more hour of sunshine

Perfect Stranger

I reach out to you
I’m no perfect stranger
Love is real, but we are not
I forget my name
Or if I’m a number
I can’t count it all the same
I say “love” to you
You say “I don’t know it”
Now you’re free, the feeling’s gone

Miss Hardy

Searching everywhere I go
Making up more reasons to know
Why it matters to hear her sing again
Only yesterday I heard
Her voice soft and clear
Has she been all of these years alone?
The old photos in black and white
Show what her life was like
As a kid, I wish I had known Miss Hardy
Wandering in unfamiliar places
People milling ‘round everywhere
Waiting for a trace among the faces
Imagining I saw you standing there
Forty years have come and gone
Is it life or just a song?
They all came to see her play, Miss Hardy
I searched the bins of record stores
Any trail that leads to her door
I wish we were twenty years old again
I wish we were twenty years old again

She's Gone

She treats me bad, but I still need her
She makes me sad, but I still love her
But now she’s gone and I’m alone
She has my ring and my sweater
She gave them back with just a letter
That said “goodbye forever”
She said our love would never work out
It didn’t mean a thing
We had our plans and yesterday
I even bought her a diamond ring
She treats me bad, but I still need her
She makes me sad, but I still love her
But now she’s gone and I’m alone
She said our love would never work out
It didn’t mean a thing
We had our plans and yesterday
I even bought her a diamond ring
She said she loved me and I believed her
But all I have now is just a picture
But now she’s gone so I’ll sing a song
