sonar And I caught her on the tide And the bubbles floated upward On a silky moonlit night ---------- [U] She took me to the edge of love And tried to push me in But I was having none of that Resisted with my skin Resisted with my blood and bones Resisted to my core And here now when I need her love She offers it no more ---------- [U] We're laying out the structure for a sad love song I can sing the words and you can play along This love I dreamed forever almost dead and gone We're laying out the structure for a sad love song Yes we're laying out the structure for a sad love song I think I'll make the chorus about my broken heart This stabbing pain inside me rising up the charts Cheating and deceiting baby from the start That's why I made the chorus about my broken heart ---------- below

The road stretched out ahead And now she's here in glitter town And singing in a band Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams He left home on Friday night So very long ago He had the last of all his fights And set out through the snow He hitched a ride and headed south Towards a warmer place And now he lives from hand to mouth And humps it for a band Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams They sit down to have a drink Somewhere beside the sea He tells a joke, she tries to laugh But nothing comes for free The sun is dying in the west Their dreams are going down Here they are above the waves And yet they might just drown Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Faded dreams, faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams Where do they go Your faded dreams ---------- below voice recorded feb 02 2009 [U] Hey hey baby I got something for you Gonna give it to you no matter what they say Hey hey baby you say you need more Well

his old guitar He'd been there for a while An ever loving lonely boy A would be nature's child He dreamed he'd be on VH1 Or maybe CMT But when she left he fell apart Right from A to E And now he plays a sad refrain On his flat top box And nothing of his dreams remain But white boy short dreadlocks ---------- A Mystery (or Love Comes A Calling) Copyright 2009, drew Roberts Released under a Creative

Routing all these sounds around by electric light I need me a country girl to fill me with delight One who will not lead me on but snuggle in real tight Chorus Yes Jack is still my jack but I still need a Jill A down home sweet good looker who can give me all my thrills A woman who will stand by me when my notes run dry (when my well runs dry?)

I am here today to talk to you of The Audacity of Hope. I am here to talk to you of Freedom. Freedom is not always free for you and me. No! Sometimes there is a high price to pay. Some say let freedom ring. Some say live free or die. Some speak of nothing left to lose. Some lose hope. I am here today to tell you that there is Freedom in Audacity. I am here to tell you that hope makes a sweet sound in Audacity. That although the price of Freedom may be high, Although the price of Hope may be high. The high price is worth it. The high price is lower than the price of the alternatives. The price of Audacity is lower still. Some say lock them down! Some call you thieves and pirates! I say freely grab some Audacity and freely hope. I say put Ardour in your heart and on your desk. I say Jack will be your friend. With hope, you may find Jack a better plumber than Joe.
