Thanks for the music



I feel like I lost a part of my past.
"The leader of the band is tired"......


Part of the Plan:
I have these moments
All steady and strong
I’m feeling so holy and humble
The next thing I know
I’m all worried and weak
And I feel myself
Starting to crumble.

The meanings get lost
And the teachings get tossed
And you don’t know what you’re
Going to do next.
You wait for the sun
But it never quite comes
Some kind of message comes
Through to you.
Some kind of message comes through.

And it says to you...

Chorus
Love when you can
Cry when you have to...
Be who you must
That’s a part of the plan
Await your arrival
With simple survival
And one day we’ll all understand...

I had a woman
Who gave me her soul
But I wasn’t ready to
Take it.
Her heart was so fragile
And heavy to hold
And I was afraid I might
Break it.

Your conscience awakes
And you see your mistakes
And you wish someone
Would buy your confessions.
The days miss their mark
And the night gets so dark
And some kind of message
Comes through to you
Some kind of message
Shoots through --

Chorus

There is no eden or
Heavenly gates
That you’re gonna make it to
One day
But all of the answers you seek
Can be found
In the dreams that you dream
On the way


Sweet dreams,Dan.

Wow!  I remember when he looked like that, too.  Such a beautiful voice, and I always look forward to hearing 'Audl Lang Syne' at this time of year.  He will be missed... he passed to young.  Rest in peace, Dan.

be well,
Dawn

I can't think of one song he wrote/sang that I don't like.  Another part of our youth - gone.  ~~Kath~~

I was really sad to read that he'd died.  He was way too young.  I love so much of his music, and his voice was always sooo smooth.

Hi,
New to your journal and browsing around.  I didn't know he died either!  How sad.

I'll be back (for better news maybe)!   ; )
