ALL MY HEROES ARE GONE
Robbed the rich to feed the poor As we fought the sheriff’s men.
Sailed upon the Spanish main And came for tea again.
I rode out with Jesse James As we rode across the range.
Fought amongst the Indians And came home for tea again.
And all my heroes have gone. And all my heroes have gone.
I became Superman To stop the speeding train.
But I had to hurry home When Kryptonite fell like rain.
Fought the things from outer space When the martians tried to land.
But I had to hurry home When my ray gun jammed.
And all my heroes have gone. And all my heroes have gone.
But for all my childhood games I was not prepared.
To survive this adult world That struggles hard to care...
And all my heroes have gone.
And all my heroes have gone.

Living behind your smile
I wonder what you see

Proper Shoes
Verse 1
She wears proper shoes
Walking off those night –time blues
see her but they don’t stare
Move on down the line
Move on down the line
Verse 2
We called her mad Maggie May
She always had something to say
But she would always give you
The time of day
Move on down the line
Move on down the line
Verse 3
Lately I ain’t seen her around
You usually see her around the town
(Perhaps she’s) moved on
to some other place
Move on down the line
Move on down the line
verse 4
She needs proper shoes
Walking off those day-time blues
People see her but they don’t Care
Move on down the line
Move on down the line

Autumn in Paris

Autumn in Paris.
All the leaves had fallen down.
On the boulevards of Paris they littered the ground.
You told me you studied at the Sorbonne.
Fate through us together. It didn’t seem wrong…
I couldn’t resist your big sad eyes.
Holding you close and I felt you cry.
So I brought you flowers from the wrong side of town.
Stayed in bed for the whole week as the rain came down.
In your tiny apartment off the Boulevard St German.
I lost touch with reality I couldn’t give a dam.
A moment in time with no regrets…
Walking hand in hand on the Isle de la Cite.
The snow was falling outside the train.
Speeding through Flanders would I see you again?
But something was calling me. Calling me home.
I left you waving, standing alone.
Always remember me. Remember me please!
Especially that one night on the Isle St Louis.
And I’ll never forget you and spirit so free.
Making that Autumn in Paris so special for me!

Cold in Clapham
(Restless Heart)
This restless heart This restless heart This restless heart
Beats for you
Beneath the gasworks light
I held your hand
I stole away to be with you
And in the park
You flew my kite
You got annoyed when you lost your mitten
This restless heart This restless heart This restless heart
Beats for you
All through the winter
I went with you
Crunching over the broken ice
Hands turning blue
Then one day
You moved out
Moved to another part of town
And I threw myself Into my work
This restless heart This restless heart This restless heart
Beats for you
Came home yesterday
You were on the stairs
Things hadn’t turned out as you planned
Many coffees later
We slept on the floor
The place didn’t seem cold anymore
INSTRUMENTAL ; This restless heart This restless heart This restless heart
Beats for you
Now it’s not so cold in Clapham
Now it’s not so cold in Clapham
Now it’s not so cold in Clapham

Black Rose
What am I doing here
Black Rose
You know (what) I really fear
Black Rose
What do you think there’ll do
Black Rose
If they find me here with you
VERSE 2
Black Rose
When you came (in)to this town
Black Rose
(That’s when) the word soon spread around
Black Rose
With your sultry skin
Black Rose
When can I see you again
VERSE 3
Black Rose
With your voodoo eyes
Black Rose
Water running down your thighs
Black Rose
You all that I can see
Black Rose
You’ve got a spell on me
VERSE 4
Black Rose
I hear that bull whip crack
Black Rose
Tear the skin right off your back
Black Rose
I hear you moan
Black Rose
You’ll never be on your own.
VERSE 5
Black Rose
Steal away across that track
Black Rose
I’ll steal away but I’ll be back
Black Rose
I’ll come callin’ when the night is black
Black Rose
Round the back door of your shack
VERSE 6
Black Rose
I must be insane
Black Rose
You.ve got me crawlin back again
Black Rose
You’ve gotta hold on me
Black Rose
Take away this misery
Take away this misery
Black Rose(S)UM um um um (K)
Black Rose(S)UM um um um (K)
Black Rose
