Shar songs & some Natural Clemency

Sharry and I at one point were going to be a folk duet, we even had a sweet name Natural Clemency. At least that was one of many of her grand plans that was to be accomplished at some point in our lives, unfortunately the only audience Natural Clemency ever ended up playing for live was our kitty Lola. Recently it evolved into the idea of having a future family band with our musical 1-3 children. Now instead JJ and I listen to Shar's songs almost nightly and I try to sing along with an angels voice as I rock him to sleep. Let's hope that he gets his mama's musical ability. Here are a couple of Shar's original songs w/ lyrics. The rest of her songs can be found at this sound cloud profile where I have them posted along with a few uploaded music videos.

Time Steals

You say opportunity knocks

But it’s just the house next door

It will come my way next May

When the sky ???

And the clouds are flowering

Time steals my life

But it can’t get my soul

We climbed up to zion’s peak

And rested then to think

Of ideas that slip by

Dripping castles in the sky

Swimming pools in my mind

Time steal my life

But it can’t get my soul

We waited for someplace paradise

The place where water falls

America was made for me

So let’s take it baby

Time steals my life

But he can’t get my soul

I've Got You

I’ve never worn a golden bracelet

Or diamond ring

All I’ve ever had is you babe

And some dirty old guitar strings

And i’m not blue

Because baby I’ve got you

I’ve never seen the Eiffel tower

Or the empire state building

All I’ve ever seen is you babe

And some background concert scenes

But i’m not blue

Cuz baby I’ve got you

I’ve never met the president

Or owner of anything

All I’ve ever known is you babe

And some lonesome street bum kings

But i’m not blue

Because baby i’ve got you

Forget about motors and money

And cuddle close to your honey

I’ve never stayed in a mansion

Or Trump’s dwellings

I just wanna stay with you babe

While the record player sings

And I aint blue

Cuz baby I’ve got you

Bonus Track and video "In Spite of Ourselves" by John Prine...once again let's hope JJ gets his mom's talents. (o:

Isn't she so talented and beautiful!?
