I Choose The Sun
by clash bowley

I thought I had the right of way
But examined in the light of day
Finding assumptions lost
Buried in the final cost
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
Not just anyone
Some read the book
Some just take a look
Some live the dream
Some may not be what they seem
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
Not just anyone
Owls flit softly by
Feathers in the night time sky
Never make a sound
Never to be so profound
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
I choose the sun
Not just anyone

Empress
by clash bowley

She dances spins and whirls
Shines her light across the world
Dark comes at her behest
But only if you pass her test
Empress of the air
Nothing she won't dare
Empress of the sky
Look you in the eye
She pretends to not care much
but she craves your touch
It amuses her
Life amuses her
She's Empress of the world
Beauty tightly curled
Empress of the night
Calling for the light
She walked out from the trees
Owning air, sun, and the breeze
She walked into your heart
Never wants to be apart
She's Empress of the night
Empress of delight
Empress of your home
Starry skies and spindrift foam
She's Empress of the sea
Nothing past her ability
She Empress of all things
Its to her the songbird sings

I can't even
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it
I said it
I can't even think it/I can't even touch it
I can't even pray it/I can't even say it
I can't even
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it

I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it

I can't even think it/I can't even pray it
I can't even touch it/I can't even say it
I can't even
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it
I said it/I got it

Cry No Tears
by clash bowley
copyright 2019
I turned the last page over and threw away the key
Burned the midnight oil, gave love away for free
Fired my jets, laid my bets, burned my ships on the shore
Paid my debts, got all I could get, walked back and asked for more
When the wind is high, comes sweeping o'er the plain
When the well runs dry, when you're crushed by all the pain
Have no fears, strip your gears, pedal to the floor
Cry no tears, block all the jeers, you're headed for that door
I turned the last page over and threw away the key
Burned the midnight oil, gave love away for free
Fired my jets, laid my bets, burned my ships on the shore
Paid my debts, got all I could get, walked back and asked for more

It Was The Way
by clash bowley

It was the way you brought your gaze to mine
It was the way you touched my soul
It was the way you caused my world to shine
It was the way you made me whole
It was the way you made my life to turn
It was the way you called the sun
It was the way you brought my heart to burn
It was the way you are the one
It was the way the moon swept through the stars
It was the way the fire flew
It was the way the wolves called out so far
It was the way that you were you
It was the way the moon swept through the stars
It was the way the fire flew
It was the way the wolves called out so far
It was the way that you were you

Kickin' With Rose
by clash bowley
copyright 2019
I heard it around the town that I'm
Playin' with fire
Heard it go round and round that my
Situation's dire!
Chances go up and down as I'm
Led around by the nose
But prospects abound now that I'm
Kickin' with Rose
I gotta laugh at the way they think it goes
I gotta make it clear that I'm stickin' with Rose
People go back and forth on how
She'll ruin me
In the news or in the courts
Speculation's free
There's only one way this goes down
Everyone knows
I'm just another clown who's
Kickin' with Rose
I gotta laugh at the way they think it goes
I gotta make it plain now I'm stickin' with Rose
Rose, Rose, that's how it goes... Rose... Rose...
Rose, Rose, that's how it goes... Rose... Rose...

The Sphynx

Turn the lights down
Down all the way
Can't forget can't forget can't forget
Happening on this day
Lord my eyes hurt
Fire when they turn
Left and right and up and down
Every way they burn
Like a pharoah
In a riddle
In a legend
Where the Sphynx has come to stay
Bend the bow back
Bend it 'til it strains
Shoot the arrow into the air
Blood is going to stain
Like a Pharoah
In a riddle
In a legend
Where the Sphynx has come to play
There's a hallow
Behind your knee
When I touch it with my lips
Love will set me free
Like a pharoah
In a riddle
In a legend
'Cause the Sphynx has come today

Some Day
by clash bowley
copyright 2019
I said go on, prove me wrong again
I said you'd never lose that feel beyond your ken
Move right along, move along the way
I said there'll never be a chance beyond today
Some day, some time, some way
I said be kind, and never let me fall
I said I'd never ever be beyond your call
I can't be wise, wise beyond my years
If I can't ever ever move beyond my fears
Some day, some time, some way
Some day, some time, some way
I said you're right, once again it seems
The only point of this is to reach beyond my dreams
I'd fall apart, fall upon the road
I'd never move on without you to share the load
Some day, some time, some way

The Last Romantic
Copyright 2018 clash bowley
Hang on down the Moebius Strip ah
Joe hands me a beer an' I take a sip
Wishin' and a-hopin' of just bein' with you
Thinkin' 'bout the things that we'd say an' do
'Cuz I'd walk all the way from Singapore
T' be with you babe right at your door
Oooh I'm sufferin' babe why can't you see?
Oh sweet lord I'm in
Misery
Now I see you step into your Z-16
An' the man that's with you babe does he look mean
Well he don't scare me with that evil glance
'Cause I'd kick his head in if I got the chance
'Cuz I'd walk all the way from Singapore
T' be with you babe right at your door
Oooh I'm sufferin' babe why can't you see?
Oh sweet lord I'm in
Misery
(Mid 8)
Well Joe he said you know an' I said I knew
That I'd have to be be a billionare babe to buy a night with you
He got his rockets babe but I got my dreams
An' things ain't always y'know what they seem
'Cuz I'd walk all the way from Singapore
T' be with you babe right at your door
Oooh I'm sufferin' babe why can't you see?
Oh sweet lord I'm in
Misery
Misery
I'm in mis-mis-mis-mis-mis-mis-misery

Don't Ride That Wave

Well, there's a lotta issues I could address
One thing, you don't wanna hear a man obsess
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Be Brave!
Now, I leave particulars behind
I paint with a big broad brush in my mind
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Be Brave!
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Be Brave!
Long past the point of no return
I try to find a better way to learn
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Don't ride that wave!
Be Brave!

Making Time
by clash bowley
copyright 2019
Time to make time
Time to say so
Time to take time
Time to lay low
Time to break time
Time to... Time to...
Build up a stair
Tower to the stars
Build up a stairway
Climb past, passing Mars
When to stand up
When to sit tight
When to hand out
When to be light
When to sing out
When to... when to...
Sing out a chorus
Singing into true
Sing out the verses
Singing out, out the new
Fire will be fire
Life will be life
Dark will be dark
Light will be light
I will be I
You will... you will...
Sculpt into being
Carve what needs to be
Chips off the excess
Polish, polish 'til you see

Turn on by the Tubes
by clash bowley
copyright 2019
Amber smoke squirrels of cable and wire
Platinum chromium seats of desire
Rat tails and contrails caught in the rain
One bus for London the other for Spain
Let's turn on by the tubes
Oh lord, you got nothing to lose
Let's turn on, let's turn on
Let's turn on by the tubes
High flying ammonites squirming with joy
Sparks from the jet sets of Elephant Boys
Far flung delirium caught in a scent
Intricate cowries for paying the rent
Let's turn on by the tubes
Oh lord, you got nothing to lose
Let's turn on, let's turn on
Let's turn on by the tubes
