What If
What If I didn’t see
What If I didn’t feel
What If I didn’t care you were gone
What If I didn’t know
What If I didn’t cry
What If I didn’t feel all alone
What If I didn’t watch
What If I didn’t see
What If I didn’t have to watch you leave
What If I didn’t fall
What If I didn’t break
What If I weren’t in pieces on the floor
What If I didn’t need
What If I didn’t hope
What If I didn’t pray to have you home
What If I didn’t care
What If I just stayed here
What If I just let you go
(Instrumental)
What If I didn’t watch
What If I didn’t see
What If I didn’t have to watch you leave
What If I didn’t fall
What If I didn’t break
What If I weren’t in pieces on the floor
What If I didn’t care
What If I just stayed here
What If I just let you go

Keep On The Sunny Side

KEEP ON THE SUNNY SIDE
There's a dark and a troubled side of life
There's a bright, and a sunny side, too
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
The sunny side we also may view
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side,
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life
The storm and its fury broke today,
Crushing hopes that we cherish so dear;
Clouds and storms will, in time, pass away
The sun again will shine bright and clear.
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side,
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we keep on the sunny side of life
If we keep on the sunny side of life

THE RIVER SONG
Rain warm on me
Little house with jewels in the yard
I'm wastin' my time
It's by the river she glows
It's by the river she flows
It's by the river she goes when she goes where she goes
Breeze teasin' the flies
Simple songs to sing out the seasons
No reason to cry
I've got time on my hands to kill
I've got people in a house on the hill
I've got time to get by you know
But there's nothin' that I don't know
'Cept the river that flows
Drones hummin' to me
Angels push the clouds past the moonlight
That lights up the trees
It's by the river she glows
It's by the river she flows
It's by the river she goes when she goes where she goes
I've got nothin but time to kill
I've got people in a house on the hill
I've got time to get by you know
But there's nothin' that I don't know
'Cept the river that flows
It's by the river she glows
It's by the river she flows
It's by the river she goes when she goes where she goes
It's by the river she glows
It's by the river she flows
It's by the river she goes when she goes where she goes

Pretty Polly
Polly, Pretty Polly, come go long with me-
Polly, Pretty Polly, come go long with me-
Before we get married, some pleasure to see
She jumped up behind him and away they did ride-
She jumped up behind him, away they did go-
Over the mountains, and valleys so low
Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm a feared for my life-
Oh Willie, oh Willie, I'm a feared for my life-
I'm afraid you mean to murder me, and leave me behind
Pretty Polly, Pretty Polly, you guessed about right-
Polly, Pretty Polly, you guessed about right-
I've been diggin' your grave, for the best part of last night.
She knelt down before him, pleading for her life-
She knelt down before him, pleading for her life
Let me be a single girl, if I cant be your wife
He stabbed her to the heart, and her heart blood did flow-
He stabbed her to the heart, and her heart blood did flow-
And into the grave, Pretty Polly did go
He through a little dirt on her and started for home-
He through a little dirt over her and started for home-
Leaving nobody there, but the wild birds to moan
A debt to the devil, Willie must pay-
A debt to the devil, Willie must pay-
For killing Pretty Polly, and running, and running, and running, and running away

If I Go Away
If I Go Away
Just know how much I love you
And that I was thinking of you
The last moment of my last day
If I go away
I should a told you so much more
I think I tried to ignore
That morning brings the day
When I go away
If I took the time to say
I’d tell you how proud I am
To be a father and a man
And how I wish that I could stay
If I go away
I couldn’t have asked for more
I hit the jackpot, that’s for sure
These things I wish that I could say
If I go away
Oooohs
I shoulda said how much I love you
And that I was thinking of you
It was more than I could say
Oooohs

Strange Light
There's a strange light in the river there's a strange light in the sand there's a strange light in the window
And a strange light on your hand
There's a strange light when you're sleeping
A strange light when you dream
There's a strange light when you wake up
There's a strange light on the screen
there's a strange light on the ocean and there's a strange light on the land
There's a strange light where you're sitting
And a strange light where you stand
There's a strange light in the mirror
And there's a strange light on the door
there's a strange light on the ceiling
And there's a strange light on the floor
There's a strange light in the forest
there's a strange light in the breeze
There's a strange light on the road ahead
And a strange light in the leaves
There's a strange light in the morning there's a strange light through the
day
there's a strange light in the evening
And a strange light That won't go away
there's a strange light on the ground below
A strange light in the sky
A strange light when you tell the truth
And a strange light when you lie
There's a strange light every time you speak
A strange light when you cry
There's a strange light every time you're born
And there's a strange light when you die

When The Looming Nears
When I see him coming for me
will he be a Friend?
I will know my time is over
you won’t see me again
When I hear him coming for me, Will he call my name?
When it’s time to cross on over things won’t be the same
Oh Oh Oh Oh
I will go if I must leave you, please don’t sob and heave,
you may miss me, please don’t grieve me, trees must lose their leaves
Come the night Come the day
Time won’t let me stay
Come the night Come the day
I’ll be on my way
I’ll remain within your heart when it’s time to leave,
Think of me with smiling eyes that weep, but do not grieve
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Come the night Come the day
Time won’t let me stay
Come the night Come the day
I’ll be on my way
Come the night
Come the day
I’ll be on my way
Come the night
Come the day
I’ll be on my way
