"How Many Miles"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry

I put it into drive and I pulled away
Shake it off, to myself I say
In a lame attempt to head off the pain
You walked inside without looking back
God how’d you learn to move on like that?
Are you just better at this game?

Well how many miles till you’re out of my life
All depends on how I drive
Cuz the road is long when you’re movin beyond goodnight
And on to goodbye

Lookin out the driver’s side I see
A strange similarity
Near things flash by, while distant things remain
Cuz up close I think I’m movin on
But I’m no farther in the long run
After all this time I still see your face

Well how many miles till you’re out of my life
All depends on how I drive
Cuz the road is long when you’re movin beyond goodnight
And on to goodbye

Oh I’m so tired with no sign to guide me
When to change my mind, set the obsession free
Wounds heal in time this I must believe
If only I knew how long I’d bleed??

Well how many miles till you’re out of my life
All depends on how I drive
Cuz the road is long when you’re movin beyond goodnight
And on to goodbye
On to goodbye
I gotta say goodbye to you now
On to goodbye

"Feelin' Fine"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry/R.B. Graves

I’m feelin’ fine almost all the time
I’m feelin’ fine
Just passin time with some friends of mine and feelin’ fine

Well, Joe kicks back on his ride
Chief Joseph highway windin through his mind
Rollin thunder in the wind
It’s almost time to pack up the bikes again and smell the trees as they blaze by
And raise up our arms to embrace the sk

And we’re feelin fine almost all the time were feelin fine
Just getting high rollin down the line and feelin fine

Well Robby Moe is primed again
He’s sportin a glass of wine and a perma grin
Workin moves on all the wives
But only one girl warms his room at night
Well he just needs to feel the love
A playful squeeze and there’s no harm done

And he’s feelin fine almost all the time he’s feelin fine
Just makin time and smiling all the while and feelin fine

No need to worry, cuz I got everything I need
And love is all around me, everything’s alright

Baby ‘Liza eyes so blue, smiles and everything is right so right and true
Corey walkin’ like a man, only yesterday reaching for my hand
Got a good man in my life, all is beautiful in this world of mine

And we’re feelin fine rollin down the line
He’s feelin fine smiling all the while
I’m feelin fine almost all the time I’m feelin fine

"Shadow Man"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry

I see you out my window when ya gonna knock on my door
Don’t ya move slowly, I don’t wanna be lonely anymore
You’re wanting my love as you wait in the night
You won’t find out there what you’ll get here inside
Come now come to me my shadow man

You are apprehensive when ya gonna come and play
Warm is the steam of your breath on the window pane
Baby I know you’re the dangerous kind
But I cannot fear what I need by my side
Come come to me my shadow man

You need not force feed your love
I am hungry enough
Move out of the darkness and into the light
Lay here and share all your secrets tonight
Come come to me my shadow man

You need not force feed your love
I am hungry enough
Move out of the darkness and into the light
Lay here and share all your secrets tonight
Come come to me my shadow man
My shadow man
My shadow man

"Bad News"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry / Donny Peck

Before I knew you baby
My days were calm and trouble free
And then you blew into my life like a whirlwind of misery
No sooner are we done and everybody knows
I guess bad news travels fast
You tell them that life with you was like living in paradise
And if I knew what was good for me, I’d crawl back and apologize
Cuz the word around this town is how I’ve stomped you to the ground
I guess bad news travels fast

The way these folks are finding out where our situation’s about to go
It’s like the LA times and the inquiry minds want to know
When ya gonna leave it alone

The way our friends are finding out where our situation’s about to go
It’s like the LA times and the inquiry minds want to know
When ya gonna leave it alone

So if ever there’s a doubt
And I need a little heads up
All I got to do to hear about your next move is ask anyone
Cuz boy you don’t waste no time when ya gonna be unkind well
Bad news travels fast
Bad news travels fast

"Love Sick"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry / Donny Peck

Six am and I’m feeling strong
Plenty of time to get up and gone
I get out and I make my way
Through one more long hard workin day
Then I feel your lips touch mine
Now ya got me thinking now’s the perfect time
To come down with some kind of flu
Stay home from work and go to work on you

Cuz I’m lovesick the fever’s high
The boss is gonna doubt me but it aint no lie
Cuz I’m lovesick now how ‘bout you?
Baby why don’t ya call in lovesick too?

Well I swear you read my mind
I had the urge to do this for the longest time
If I try hard enough
Bet ya baby I can work the symptoms up
Cuz your touch is sweet and strong
Suddenly I feel an achin’ coming on
Down down down down to the bone
Had enough of talking baby hand me the phone!

Repeat chorus

"Mess You Made"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry

Oh now look what you done
You spilt my heart on the floor
You tore this woman up as you walked out my door
Well I wasn’t put on this earth to be your slave
Now who’s gonna clean up this mess you made

Your smile was like the spring and I welcomed the warm
You turned cold and shattered my dreams like a violent winter storm
Leaving destruction in your wake
Now who’s gonna clean up this mess you made

Picking up the pieces, wipe your memory clean
Oh who’s gonna mend this hole in my heart
Making it fit to love again?

You left my world in disarray
Now who’s gonna clean up this mess you made
Tell me who’s gonna clean up this mess you made
Please come home and clean up this mess you made

"Carry Me Home"
© 2003 Kelly V. Queensberry

Carry me home I can’t walk no more
Carry me home I can’t walk no more
I got a bottle and I’m feelin low
My baby’s on down the road
I can’t stand the thought of bein alone
Why don’t you carry me home

I’m tired of walkin that straight line
I’m tired of walkin that straight line
It does no good to be good and kind
The man packed up and left me behind
I never felt so bad in all my life
Why don’t you carry me home

This morning I was stepping tall
I had the man’s lovin thought I had it all
Well this evening I’m stumbling down
Cuz my baby don’t want me around

Top

Angry man, how is it to be you?
Don’t understand, what has this world put you through?
Thoughts unkind fill your mind
And no joy runs in the veins of an angry man
What a sad sad shame

Hungry youth denied the truth
Are fed from angry words from you
Wild eyed prepared to die for the glory of a lie

So angry man, what are you gonna do
With your plan to take us all down with you ?
And though we may not pray in the same way
In His eyes we are all the same
Don’t you understand we are not to blame
It’s a sad sad shame
Why don’t you put your guns away

Top

I was born feet first and been runnin ever since my feet hit the ground
Wild pony roaming free and that’s how I’ll always be
Searchin for the next go round
Oh I know greener grass is gonna grow on the other side of paradise

Well the grass may be greener but it never grows tall
I don’t hang around that long
And it’s a strangling feelin when the weeds begin to grow
When the dandelions bloom, I make a wish then I’m gone

The white seeds scatter like snowflakes in the spring
A flurry on a sunny day
A whisper from my lips send ‘em dancing on the wind
In a way it’s like my destiny
My momma told me girl when ya ever gonna learn lord, you never will be satisfied

Hard times take too much time they do
So why should I waste mine on a no where ride with you??

Repeat chorus
I make a wish then I’m gone
Bye baby so long ……

Top

Seems forever I’ve been walking this path I’m on
Endless journey lost in love with you
Guess there aint gonna be no rest for my broken heart
Don’t ya know no one else will do

(Chorus)
So I’m walkin on this trail of tears
Hoping round the bend I’ll find you there
I’m so lost and alone wanna walk in the sun
You’re the only one who’s gonna lead me from
This trail of tears

In the distance I see I am not alone
Lonely gypsies on the run
Wandering aimlessly they’re a lot like me
Always searchin for their only one

(Repeat Chorus)

Your love lies just beyond
Past the darkness through the storm
To the light on the horizon
And so I keep walkin on

(Repeat Chorus)
