Lyrics-----Till I found you

Till I found you

J. Michael Tracy male/female/vocal uptempo

------Ya know the reason why---------I feel like I do

---------Been hurt so many times---------I’d dream in black and blue

(chorus)

---All those nights in pain------and ya helped me make it through

-------Feels like I’m born again------cause all my dreams were bad

--------Till I found you

(verse)

---Sometimes I’d try to fly------then I’d crash and burn

-----But ya showed me why--------and somehow I’d learn

(chorus)

-----When I’d feel old-------ya’d made me feel like new

-----Feels like I’m born again-------cause all my dreams were bad

-------Till I found you

(bridge)

I could not pretend------and the night was not my friend

----It seemed like the end for meeeeeee------till I found you

--------Till I found you

(chorus)

Those nights I’d be in paaaiiiiiiin-------ya helped me make it through

Ya made me feel I’m born again-----cause all my dreams were bad

------Till I found you

(verse)

----I just can’t explain---------what I feel inside me

-----I call your name----and suddenly---you’re beside me

(chorus)

-------My life was so insane-----and if it weren’t for you

---I might lose this game-----cause all my dreams were bad

---------Till I found you

Lyrics----He'd never leave again

He’d never leave again

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/midtempo

Young Billy’d left his heart in Carolina

Hitched his way back to the life he knew

He’d left his Becky back in Ashville

To serve his country, but he always knew

(chorus)

He’d come back to Carolina

---To hold her, and tell her where he’d been

Had to say that he was gone—too—long

Swore to her he’d never leave again

(verse)

He hugged her and told her that he loved her

She told’m that she loved him too

He said he missed her, and that he’d never say goodbye again

And how he always knew

(chorus)

Inst. verse

(last chorus)

Now he’s back in Carolina—with Becky

His lover and his friend

---She said that he’d been gone—too—long

Swore to her he’d never leave again

Files coming soon.

Lyrics----This story goes

This Story Goes

J. Michael Tracy (ballad)

(verse)

Once upon a lonely time

The boy did not come back to school

Never one to start a fight

Never one to break the rules

“Innocent and naive”, his teachers said

“How in hell does someone like that wind up dead?

Maybe there was something that we missed, things we never knew”

(verse)

His Mama liked to stay at home

At least that’s what they all thought

He never talked about his Paw

He wanted to be an Astronaut

His dreams were going to take him, to the sky

Find hisself some wings, so he could fly

But even dreams of innocents can die, ended by a single shot

(bridge)

Sometimes we look, but we can’t see

Buried deeply under lock and key

A child with a broken life that never heals

Right in front of you and me

(verse)

One day the old man came home drunk

Started beatin’ on his Maw

The boy jumped in to save her

For him it was the last straw

The man reached in his jacket, pulled out a gun

Before his clouded mind could think he’d killed his only son

On and on this story goes to start again

Cause he won’t be the only one

On and on this story goes to start again……

Cause he won’t be the only one

Files coming soon.

Lyrics----You're putin' me to the test

You’re putin’ me to the test

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/midtempo

You’re putin' me to the test

I promise I’ll do my best

I’m givin you this request

To tell me the things I see

Are just that we disagree

And that I should let it be

(chorus)

Sometimes a shadow comes across your eyes

And it won’t let me see the truth

(verse)

Now I’ve never had a past

You’ve always had me outclassed

And we’re gettin nowhere fast

(inst.verse)

(chorus)

Sometimes a shadow comes across your eyes

And it won’t let me see the truth

And if you need to cut me down to size

We’ll just blame it on my youth

(verse)

So come with me to the dance

It’s stabbin me like a lance

Please give me just one more chance

(bridge)

What makes you think that you must deceive me

When you mean everything to me, believe me

(verse)

You’re putin' me to the test

I promise I’ll do my best

I’m givin' you this request

Files coming soon.

Grampa

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/ballad

A Lehigh engineer, he ran Old Number Three

He was the “Viking” to his men, but he was-Grandpa to me

A man of deep emotions, he loved us all so much

He could drive my Grandma crazy, then sooth her with his touch

(chorus)

He lived his life with gusto

An independent man

But any time we needed him

He was there to lend a hand

(verse)

The cabin on the hill, he built with his two hands

Grammy helped him stack the logs, and clear the land

He’d tell us of the heartache, of when he’d lost his son

Or he would speak about the good times and the battles that he’d won

(chorus)

His Barbara and his Nanny stayed with him till the end

Daughters, nurses, confidants and sympathetic friends

He gave my Momma one more laugh—before he said goodbye

He knew he’d had a good run, but now his spirit had to fly

(chorus)

A Lehigh engineer, he ran Old Number Three

His men all called him “Viking”, but he was Grandpa to me

Files coming soon.

Lyrics----Someone else's love

Someone else’s love

By J. Michael Tracy-Rick Lockwood—male/ballad

Crowded streets and still alone I’m

Not myself, and this ain’t home I’m

Thinkin’ bout a country girl I know

I’ve lost my heart, I took for granted

The simple life, the love we’d planted

Why didn’t I stay, to see it grow

Mountain breezes filled my mind with

Precious things, the city stole away from me

They’re whispering her name

And when I spied her in that doorway

I thought she’d, come runnin’ my way

So that I could hold her once again

(chorus)

Carolina mountain rain

Help me wash away the lend me strength from the sky above

I always thought that she’d be mine

That everything would work out fine and loneliness, I’d finally had enough

But she was someone else’s love

(verse)

Now and then, I chance to see her

But I can’t bring myself to greet her

I don’t know what to say

And my life seems like it’s been

Headed in, the wrong direction all that’s left for me

Is to pray

(chorus)

Files coming soon.
