Song Lyrics
Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers
Chorus:
Come and take a walk with me baby
Come and take a walk with me
As far as we can see baby
As far as we can see
It’s springtime and the flowers are blooming
The Golden Poppies and Purple Lupin
and the Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers
(Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers )
Come and take a walk with me baby
Come and take a walk with me
It’s springtime and the birds are singing
thru the old Oak trees and the Laurel leaves
and the Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers
(Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers)
– Instrumental Break –
Repeat chorus
It’s springtime and the Morning Glories
The Purple Nightshade and Hummingbird Sage
and the Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers
(Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers )
Repeat chorus
End:
And the Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers
(Sticky Yellow Monkey Flowers ) 3x

June Moon
I see the moon
over the horizon
I see the full moon
she’s a rising
I see the full moon
In the evening sky
Tired old moon
Always on the fly
Chorus:
June moon
Rising like a big balloon
In the evening sky
Always on the fly
Driving from the valley
To the sea
over the mountain
rising over me
A big June full moon
Shining down on me
Over the horizon
From the valley to the sea
SOLO
CHORUS
All the cares of the world
At one time or another
Refract and reflect
on her dazzling surface
Lit by sunlight
In the evening sky
Tired old moon
Always on the fly
CHORUS
Ending:
Like a summer evening
A cool summer breeze
A big June full moon
Rising through the trees
Rising in the sky

Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
on a quiet night
near the trees
Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
in candlelight
by the sea
Chorus:
Born an hour before dawn
And the world was singing
a new song
Stars danced and swayed
and the moon played a serenade
for Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
in the early light
of the day
Kara Brianna
Kara Brianna
Peacefully
holding sway
– Istrumental break –

Reaching for a Cure
Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh
I do believe there is a cure
When will they see
There’s something more
Another time
Another place
I do believe
There’s something more
Chorus:
I keep reaching for the inside
Trying to find some hope and peace of mind
Searching for some reason in this crazy world
And I keep reaching for a cure
Because I know there’s something more
I do believe
A day will come
When will they see
What’s done is done
Some other place
Some other time
It’s got to be
What’s done is done
Repeat Chorus
– Instrumental Break –
I do believe
That you and me
Are going to see
What’s got to be
With no respect
for Mother Earth
It’s got to be
What’s done is done
Repeat Chorus

Everybody goes home in October
Everybody goes home in October
back to where they came from
Winter’s getting on and I know it won’t be long
till I’m home
Chorus:
Everybody goes home in October
That’s what Jack Keroauc said
He saw through his eyes
the October skies
through the eyes of the
wise observer
So when your summer travels are over
and the road leads you back where you began
Winter’s getting older and the days are getting colder
once again
Repeat chorus
– Instrumental Break –
Bridge:
Jack Keroauc
saw America
through all her turmoil and tears
Saw the beauty and the pain
and the dream that rose again
in the night

Missing You
Verse 1 (a):
Said hello to my old good friend
And I started kissing him once again
Fell in love but I didn’t mean to
But it’s so hard not to with you
with you, with you
Verse 1 (b):
Baby you’re so sweet to me
And I would like to see how we could be
Fell in love and you did too
But it’s so hard not to with you
with you, with you
Chorus:
(But) you’re so far away
Time goes by each day
Every time I think we’re through
That’s the time I still miss you
It’s true, I still miss you
Verse 2:
It’s so hard to say goodbye
Sometimes it makes me want to cry
Fell in love but I didn’t mean to
(But) it’s so hard not to
with you, with you, with you
Repeat Chorus
Verse 3:
Honey you’re so far away
(And) time goes by each and every day
It’s so hard to say goodbye
Sometimes it makes me want to cry
It’s true I still miss you

Traveling Down
Traveling down this road again I must be on my way Traveling down to see the sun rise on another day
Chorus: Something inside is yearning to see Nowhere to hide it’s burning in me
Highway of the sun turns on another day Moonlight on the road I must be on my way
Repeat Chorus
Bridge: Winding down the valley in a circle of light Trying to avoid the shadows of the night Multiple stars light the clearest of nights I gaze out my window, it all feels so right
Traveling down this road again I must be on my way Traveling down to see the sun rise on another day
Last Chorus: Something inside is yearning to be free Nowhere to hide it’s burning in me

Temple of Love
Hey now baby I can’t wait to hear you say you won’t be late Oh my dear it means so much to have you near and feel your touch
I could be your queen if you know what I mean When you sit on my throne in the temple of love Sit on my throne in the temple of love
It’s late at night and I’m alone I hear your voice on the telephone You’re far away, but we still play and then you say they’ll be a day
When you can be my king well it ain’t no big thing When you sit on my throne in the temple of love
Chorus: (come on) sit on my throne in the temple of love I could go there alone but it’s not good enough So if you think you can handle it I’m not giving up So let me sit on your throne in the temple of love
Hey now baby I can’t wait to hear you say you won’t be late Oh my dear it’s understood when we’re together it feels so good
I could be your Goddess and you’ll be my God when you sit on my throne in the temple of love
Chorus: (come on) sit on my throne in the temple of love I could go there alone but it’s not good enough So if you think you can handle it I’m not giving up
So let me sit on your throne in the temple of love
