Save My Life
(Rick Reil)

Leaving here waiting there
She can’t hope to find
Just what she is looking for
Right before her eyes

Tables turn memories burn
When you’ve lost your way
Turn your back they attack
Look the other way

She said I’m dead
Save my life
I said instead
Look inside

Clouds have come on the run
In the crashing sky
Through it all we hide for days
The stakes are getting high

Death defied still denied
With each passing day
Soul inspired reconciled
We can find a way

Inside she cried
Save my life
I’ll take her hand
Look inside

Though your world is falling down you hold on
Yes you can
In a place that’s deep inside you’ll find out
Yes you can you’ll find out

Though we face an empty space
We must not be swayed
Don’t be fooled by what is lost
Truth will not betray
Soul inspired reconciled
We will find a way

She said I’m dead
Save my life
I’ll take her hand
Look inside

She Surrounds Me
(Rick Reil- Kurt Reil)

When I reach for words inside of my mind
Looking out through windows of my eyes

I'm not sure of what I see
Don’t know what I hope to find
But there's an open side of me
Looking to you for a sign

She surrounds me
She surrounds me

Words are spoken i am turning the key
Spells are broken deep inside of me

Glorious of mysteries
Into you I disappear
And in my every moment be
Full of love and free of fear

She surrounds me
She surrounds me

World illusion beating under your feet
In the silence surrender to your dreams

Glorious of mysteries
Into you I disappear
And in my every moment be
Full of love and free of fear

Rainy Day #3
(Kurt Reil-Rick Reil)

In the sun-light my way
reaching out to you everyday

In the days-gone before
never knew there was so much more

CHORUS: 
Save it for a rainy day
Save it for you
Blame it on the weatherman
Is all you ever do

Feeling lost down the road
time will tell me the way to go

Will my love cast my fate
or will she do what she's done too late

CHORUS

Time away is somehow never lost
measured by what's in her eyes

CHORUS
Waiting for love to pass you by
Only to lose
Save it for a Rainy Day
Is all you ever do

Don’t Look Over Your Shoulder
(Rick Reil)

The way you look at me
I can feel the world inside of you
so far away it seems
I can only catch a glimpse of you

Don’t look over your shoulder
you’re gonna miss what’s right in front of you
Don’t look over your shoulder
there’s no need to hide- no one’s gonna criticize you

when I lose my way
I get caught up in days of worrying
but in the night I wait
I know that love is a great awakening

Is It Showing
(Rick Reil)

She thinks that she knows me now
but it’s all in her head
I would tell her how i feel
but it just can’t be said

Is it showing showing showing showing
I can’t tell you what you want to know

She thinks that it’s easy 
love is just an open book
but I just can’t explain myself
she’s gonna have to look

and the things that I am saying
are not meant to be unkind
if I’m caught behind you playing
give it time

Future Move
(Kurt Reil)

Shining bright brilliant as the sun
Blinded by the love I see through you

Make no sound silently aware
All the changing moods I feel with you

Out of sight and out of my mind
When I caught your eye I felt the future move

Summer daze oblivious to love
But I’m waking up beside you

You’re the air invisible and clear
It’s a part of me I’m breathing you

Out of sight and out of my mind
When I caught your eye I felt the future move

Never see the blazing orange sun
Till it’s going down in front of you

Window
(Kristin Pinell-Kurt Reil)

Everything that ever was
A mirror I see all that falls 
behind me now is coming into view

The window from which I look
For reason all light shining through
Like a mirror
Reflecting and resonating you

Light of your love glows
Bright through my window

In the mirror of your mind
All I see is true
And the emptiness denied
Finds no refuge in you

Love’s Lost On You
(Kurt Reil)

Listen to your mind
It’ll make you talk for hours
When no one and nothing you say really matters

Look into your eyes
See the pain and the love of sadness
When no one and nothing else ever seems to matter

In the middle of the wide-eyed oblivion
You’re finding out you got it all wrong

Don’t you know ‘bout what it all comes down to?
Love’s lost on you

In another time
All at once in a fit of anger
A name given to you just another word for laughter

To the other side
Over there where the grass is greener
You can’t say there ever was a better everafter

All your tears left to cry misunderstood
Are catching up with you now

Don’t you know ‘bout what it all comes down to?
Love’s lost on you
And all you can do
Love’s lost on you

In the middle of the wide-eyed oblivion
You’re finding out you got it all wrong

Don’t you know ‘bout what it all comes down to?
Love’s lost on you
And all you’ve been through
Love’s lost on you

Changed
(Rick Reil)

I been changed for my life
Rearranged in my sight
I been seeing a new teacher
A little late but its happening fast
I been changed
I been changed


I been changed all for joy
I was sold out a boy
Suffocating in black smoke
Clear away and i’m free again
I been changed
I been changed


Death of the deep wound
A race against time
Out beyond the reach of
I’m taking what is mine


I been changed for all time
I am leaving the mine
Laying down in the new world
Shining free in the eye of the sun
I been changed
I been changed
I been changed

Life & Love, Times To Come 
(Kurt Reil)

I’ve been thinking about life and love
I’ve been thinking about times to come
what was once will never be
that alone can set you free

Gettin’ in tune with the rising sun
this man’s work is never done
but I won’t let it worry me
been this way for eternity

In this way I’m homeward bound
reaching up and holding out
glimpses of what lies beyond

Never looked for a love like mine
if you seek you’re never gonna find
‘cause in karma I believe
gonna get what’s coming to me

In the garden endless climb
universal marking time
to be shown the light of day

The Love That Never Ends
(Rick Reil)

Playing in the city the music did begin
I saw you from a distance my mind began to spin
I recognize the vision i saw once in a dream
And soon to be awoken by all i haven’t seen

There is no pain leave it all behind you
If you would trust in the one who loves true
Like a light that shines through an open window
We soon will see if we can live up to

Hiding in the alleys a late night rendevous
A million dead end glories have brought me here to you
And like the sun reflecting a mirror in your eyes
Illuminating reasons from where they used to lie

Tears falling into a sky that’s clearing
We are open to what is now revealing 
Like a light that shines through an open window
We soon will see if we can live up to

Many miles a journey beginning with a step
But mostly it’s a mindset leading to the rest
We all have our defenses now its time to let them go
I’ll open up my heart babe and hold you ever close

Melancholia
(Pete Townshend)

My coffees’ cold
My papers’ old
My heart is sold 
To melancholia
My clothes are torn
My shoes are worn
My heart is born 
To melancholia

A strange surprise what I dispise
In other guys is here in me
They lose their girl they lose their world
And then they cry for all to see

I’ve never felt so bad 
The virus drives me mad

The sheets are grey
But since that day
She went away
I’ve lost all power
The dust is thick 
The cat is sick
The kids have picked
Most of the flowers

The sun is shining but not for me

Moving Circle 
(Kurt Reil)

the look of love has turned to pain
the spark once lit the flame
is on the wane

gave up the ghost of you and me
arrested from a dream
and set me free

moving circle universal beginning again
to continue out and into a world without end

I’m breaking up I’m falling down
and dropping to the ground
somehow I rebound

the blossom bud is off my tree
and willows gently weep
it’s only make-believe

moving circle universal beginning again
to continue out and into a world without end

In fairy tales a lover’s leap
the game of hide and seek
is onto me

the look of love has turned to pain
the spark that lit the flame
has gone away

moving circle universal beginning again
to continue out and into a world without end

moving circle role reversal turn it around
to continue out and in till I’m lost and I’m found

Summer of 1000 Years
(Kurt Reil- Danny Adlerman)

The circumstance is one you know
the story now applies to you
and you’ll relive the same mistakes
if history rings true

The more you learn the less you know
blinded deaf and dumb to love
the path you choose is one way through
but all roads lead to one

CH:
In the past part of the future
all that matters now is here
and living in the present
in the summer of 1000 years

If you should walk the road again
open up your heart and mind
and gaze beyond the trees and mist
the happiness you’ll find

So think before you act my friend
and don’t be left to loneliness
you’ll never get this chance again
the dove within your fist

CH
break, bridge and solo

You can't go back too much is lost
I guess you never could go home
so break on through uncharted lands
wherever you may roam

CH
