Candlelight 04:16
Under the stars tonight There's no comfort like a candlelight. And should they fall from the sky? Shelter my umbrella will provide. What will I leave behind Legacy of love, I hope they find And should you all forget? Let my words be a reminder then. So much closer than I've ver been to the prize in sight. No one else will ever be as close as baby you and I Let your guard down, you're safe with me. just look at what we made, of a bad thing following your heart. Under the stars tonight There's no comfort like a candlelight. And should they fall from the sky? Shelter my umbrella will provide and it will provide So much closer than I've ver been to the prize in sight. No one else will ever be as close as baby you and I

Logical Man 03:48
When everything equally divides How could you ever chose a side Nothing is ever black and white Choose where the two worlds collide. cause elsewhere a fool will decide. Which of these battles will you fight When both of these soldiers could be right Nothing is ever black and white Choose where the two worlds collide. cause elsewhere a fool will decide. When everything equally divides How could you ever chose a side Nothing is ever black and white Choose where the two worlds Choose where the two worlds Choose where the two worlds collide.

There was a time you were living well. now suckered into a living hell. judgmental in attitude humbled teacher, gratitude. Fly in the freezer, froze. Thaw him out, let him go. The sun is your only hope. But like the time he comes and goes. End is near. and it only gets worse from here. Daily sunrise window tap wide awake without a map. coffee keeps you paranoid radio static, comfort noise. Fly in the freezer, froze. Thaw him out, let him go. The sun is your only hope. But like the time he comes and goes. End is near. and it only gets worse from here. There was a time you were living well. now suckered into a living hell. judgmental in attitude humbled teacher, gratitude. Fly in the freezer, froze. Thaw him out, let him go. The sun is your only hope. But like the time he comes and goes. End is near, end is near, end is near, end is near, end is near and it only gets worse from here.

Just A Spark 03:44
There's only a half of a heart living in this old hotel room Then you came and threw back the drapes and brightened up the room. If only my eyes could adjust, to this silhouette in my view If only i could make out a face I'm hoping that its you. Follow your heart off the edge Baby we can build us a fire 'cause all you really needed was light and just a little spark. You say there's not a man, who could love ya good Maybe he is out in the woods? 'cause all you really need is a light and just an open heart. Follow your heart off the edge Baby we can build us a fire 'cause all you really needed was light and just a little spark.

Goodnite 04:05
It's a fishing line between two cans It's the next best thing to holding your hand in my dreams i make believe i'm your man. 'cause you are the sweetest thing. Singing you Goodnite Go to bed with a big smile Under the moonlight we'll have the sweetest dreams. Holding hands over a fast beating heart Where we're going love it never gets dark. When I saw you right from the start that you were the sweetest thing. Singing you Goodnite Go to bed with a big smile Under the moonlight we'll have the sweetest dreams. Singing you Goodnite Go to bed with a big smile Under the moonlight we'll have the sweetest dreams. It's a fishing line between two cans It's the next best thing to holding your hand in my dreams i make believe i'm your man. 'cause you are the sweetest thing. Singing you Goodnite Go to bed with a big smile Under the moonlight we'll have the sweetest dreams. Singing you Goodnite Go to bed with a big smile Under the moonlight we'll have the sweetest dreams. we'll have the sweetest dreams, tonite.

Dear Friend 03:05
Dear friend don't be afraid you're on your way there's beautiful weather bigger and better things. Do it all while you're young 'cause there's lots to learn Follow your heart in turn. Take lots of photographs Don't forget to laugh ' cause it all goes so fast. Slow down don't be in such a rush that you miss a hug and a smile there's so much love to go around and it's yours. Do it all while you're young 'cause there's lots to learn Follow your heart in turn. Take lots of photographs Don't forget to laugh ' cause it all goes so fast. Do it all while you're young 'cause there's lots to learn Follow your heart in turn. Take lots of photographs Don't forget to laugh ' cause it all goes so fast. Do it all while you're young 'cause there's lots to learn Follow your heart in turn.

Take a good look 'cause you're never gonna see me A scorpions kiss on the wrist and now I'm poisoned Feeling it burn like a bridge across the water,  Now you'll never make that walk out to another lover Listen closely, I think I got something to tell ya (I'm) treading lightly, cause anti-venom ain't gonna cure ya Saying goodbye to the birds up in the sky with all their marvelous moves while they circle my body.  Never again will you trust another lover with a scorpion kiss and a heart seeking dagger. Listen closely, I think I got something to tell ya (I'm) treading lightly, cause anti-venom ain't gonna cure ya Now that you're gone it really makes me wonder just what kind of spell did you go and put me under never again will you trust another lover with a scorpion kiss and a heart seeking dagger. Listen closely, I think I got something to tell ya (I'm) treading lightly, cause anti-venom ain't gonna cure ya Listen closely, I think I got something to tell ya (I'm) treading lightly, cause anti-venom ain't gonna cure ya

Hip Sway 03:35
There was night when all the fires couldn't compete with the flames in your eyes. Seeing you float just like a balloon You caught my eye when you walked in the room Seeing you move, just like a red light Your body is dangerous when your hips sway. Hey there, come and dance with me I like the way you're movin' come and move with me to the rhythm of the lights I wanna feel your body right up next to me There was night when all the fires couldn't compete with the flames in your eyes. Watching you move like flickering flames Your body is dangerous when your hips sway. Left and then right as u hypnotize Your body is dangerous when your hips sway. Hey there, come and dance with me I like the way you're movin' come and move with me to the rhythm of the lights I wanna feel your body right up next to me There was night when all the fires couldn't compete with the flames in your eyes.

Soon Enough 02:31
Though it seems like a waste of time to wait. It'll come but you cant control the pace. Give it time Give it space Believe me I want love, but I don't wanna rush into it like this. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Now i can't tell you when my heart will change. and i hope Soon enough but who's to say? Give it time Give it space Believe me I want love, but I don't wanna rush into it like this. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Give it time Give it space Believe me I want love, but I don't wanna rush into it like this. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you. Soon enough it'll find you.

Hi there, Nice to meet you where have you been? Timing's really funny how it works and then its gone, like that. Goodbyes never get easier But, life goes on. Timing's really funny how it works and then its gone, like that. Do you wish for a light? Will you wait 'til its right? Hesitate and you miss Oh the gift of a kiss.

Go With Him 03:52
Go with him. I know your heart is there. I'll never hold the key. Lord knows, I've tried and I've tried But, now you drift away Like a plume of smoke. And off you go oh off you go Letting go will be the hardest thing. Although i feel i failed i know i gave you my all but now you slip away sliding down that rope and oh off you go oh off you go. Both have our paths Follow yours, i'll follow mine If we make it back We're the lucky one's, lucky ones. Now's the time time we gotta say goodbye never gonna find one like like when our sparks ignited always gonna hold this flame in the safest place so that when the time is right we can torch the mountainside. Both have our paths Follow yours, i'll follow mine If we make it back We're the lucky one's, lucky ones. Now's the time time we gotta say goodbye never gonna find one like like when our sparks ignited always gonna hold this flame in the safest place so that when the time is right we can torch the mountainside.

Everything's gonna change, girl Nothing can stay the same, girl Walking in this world's so strange, girl Should've been by my side, But nothing you can do or say can change me This'll be the one thing you cant control. And you can't fight the flames, when its windy. And you can't do heights, 'cause it makes you dizzy Got to find my own way, girl Cannot be led astray, girl Winter's coming swiftly but, I always seen it coming like a freight train Maybe we can fly one day, you never know. And you can't fight the flames, when its windy. And you can't do heights, 'cause it makes you dizzy And you can't fight the flames, when its windy. And you can't do heights, 'cause it makes you dizzy

about

I began writing in early 2000 as music therapy after the death of my Mother. Her death helped me to hear/see life through a new lens. I began to look at things in my life that might be tragic or upsetting and try to find the good in all those situations. To create a beautiful memory rather than one that seems to be a dark time in your life. Really just an exercise in positive thinking. So began “AOK”, which is a philosophy where, although I’ve experienced this life’s "goods" and "bads", everything has turned out “AOK”.

So 13 years and 200+ songs later I have finally taken the time necessary to record this first official release of AOK. An album I can be proud of.
