Sad About You

Sad About You
I loved you
No matter what
I feed you
With my heart
Now I am sad
Sad about you
I should have listened to
All of my friends
But I was in love with
Something new
Now I am sad
Sad about you.

Rich Love Awesome Friends Forever and Always!!!

Out of Body

Out of Body
Taking some time to ease my mind
Crossing the line on green pyramid wine
Hiding behind shadows unkind
Policemen pass by and I began to fly
Over the trees and across the sea
Keep on talking but my words mean nothing
Everyone is crazy and I’m just insane
Passing the bottle hitting the jay
Adjusting my throttle and I feel okay
Telephone rings I’m out on a limb
Bumblebee stings the future looks grim
Over the trees and across the sea
Taking some time to find my mind
Falling behind feeling too high
Running with time acting so blind
Policeman pass by and I start to fly
Over the trees and across the sea

Teenage wasteland song with elements of LSD and masturbation.

Love Revolution

If I told you how I feel would you laugh at me
If I revealed the things I know would you walk out on me
When you find a little time will you ease my mind
Don’t be so hard if I appear to be in a daze I just might amaze
Love revolution is coming down on you
Love evolution is turning the tide
Love revolution we don’t need to feel blue
Love solution all across the countryside
You know why this has to be
We don’t need to hide can’t you see
If I smile with a tear would you blame me
If I fall into the clouds would you catch me
When you get some time would you be mine
If you give peace a chance would you come to the dance
Love revolution is reigning over on us
Love evolution is turning back the tide
Love revolution don’t miss the bus
Love solution all across our country side

Another peaceful song from “Transcendence.””All this world confusion and chaos was inevitable and no one is to blame. What had to happen has happened; and what has to happen will happen. There was and is no way out (of illusion) except through my coming in your midst. I had to come, and I have come. I am the Ancient One.”- Avatar Meher Baba

I’m Leaving

I’m Leaving
You can’t tell me what to do no-no
You know it’s just not the way it goes
You can’t lock me up inside
You hold my heart, but destroy my pride
It’s over now I’m leaving (I’m leaving)
It can’t go on this way (I’m leaving)
No more deceiving (I’m leaving)
Nothing I can say
Cry to me rain inside my soul
Smile for me fill this empty hole
Face to face, and still, I face someone else
And when we talk, I’m talking, talking to myself
It’s over now I’m leaving (I’m leaving)
It can’t go on this way (I’m leaving)
No more deceiving (I’m leaving)
Nothing I can say
I’m leaving you
I’m leaving you

This was my first break up song I wrote at seventeen. My girlfriend at the time cried when I played it live with my High School. I had to tell her it was only a song… LOL.

Every Goddam Day

Every goddam day
Is just the same as yesterday
Do it again, do it again
Get on up and move on out
Be here and there and everywhere
Everything is just the same to me
Every goddam day
Is just the same to me
You get up out of bed
You fall down on your head
You jump out of bed
And join the living dead
Do it again, do it again, do it again
Get up for the day
Get up for the day
Eat your breakfast eat your eggs
Eat your eggs and ham
Woo Ah
Get up for the day
Get up for the day
Every goddam day
Is just the same as yesterday

Rich Love another teenage wasteland poem/song.

Coming Back

Coming Back
My record’s bad
My love is sad
My ma is mad – I long for you
I’m coming back
Coming back
Coming back
Don’t you cry, babe
I’m coming back
They locked me up
When I got fed up
Now I’m hard up – I cry for you
I’m coming back
Coming back Coming back
Don’t you cry, babe
I’m coming back
Girl, I’ll never lie
As long as you – take me back
Coming back
Coming back

This was my first song I wrote when I was fourteen. How did I know they would lock me up… LOL.

Clear Skies

I can see many changes
In the way of helping one another
It’s no surprise how we can rebuild life Just by coming together
I’m looking back On the shadows of the past
But sometimes I get discouraged
In a world that’s overcast
Walking in the sunlight at night
It’s hard when you can’t see the day
Searching for sunshine at night
Sometimes dreams are like a lighthouse in the dark
And I think it’s me, but I could be wrong
Running over and down steep hills
I can’t begin to explain
The frustration that fuels me inside
Sometimes every day
Seems like the same as the one before
And if I recall any moments of love
I hold on to them close and forevermore
I can’t begin to explain
But there’s something wrong
And it’s fighting from east to west
Seems like life is a pest
I can’t begin to explain
The feelings I have inside
I keep trying to tear down
My walls deep inside
When really I just hide
So don’t come looking for me
Clear skies above us in my mind
But there’s something wrong
And it’s in the world
But I’m not going to worry today
Everything’s fine to me my Lord

12 Principles leading to world peace:

– Honesty (within oneself)
– Hope (and rising above hope)
– Faith (beyond religion)
– Courage (to push through the obstacles)
– Integrity (within oneself and in others)
– Willingness (to transcend beyond the beyond)
– Humility (all we need is love)
– Brotherly & sisterly love (you know what I’m talking about)
– Justice (leaving all results entirely to LOVE)
– Perseverance (why gave up? We made it this far)
– Spirtual Awareness (It’s time to slowly awaken from the dream)
– Service (we should service somebody beyond ourselves)

True love is no game!!!

Begin

I know what You need from me
It is all so clear
Your fire burns deep within
It is time to begin
Sometimes I struggle hard
As You have seen
Your love is reeling in
It is time to begin
Some people get themselves so caught up living in the everyday world
They never give themselves a chance to begin to do what is right
There are some of us that just carry on, let the day pass until it reaches night
While others get lost in the darkness and never, find their inner light
You can see I am hanging on
Like a button on a coat
You are the thread that keeps me in
It is time to begin
Some people get themselves so hung up living in their mundane life
They never give themselves the hope to begin to use their insight
The rest of us that just keep moving on let the love grow within
While others wander and never rise above to join together in the fight

A manic letter written to Meher Baba in 2006 from beginning to end. No editing or updating of lyrics…one take. This amazing skill as never came back to me and it now appears on my concept album.

Another Day & Dig It

Another Day
Another, another, another day in California
Another, another day in California
Highway chase
On the afternoon news
South on 101There’s a man with nothing to lose
Another, another, another day in California
Another, another day in California
Every day unfolds
Pieces of the story
And I can’t help to wonder
If I should really worry
Rich Love Dig It
I can’t help, but shed a tear
Every time I read the paper
Every time I watch the TV news
I just want to pick up my six-string and sing the blues
(Dig it) Every single day somebody cries
Each and every day somebody dies
Murder on channel nine, suicide on five
Seems to me I’m in a cesspool, I’m just fighting
Fighting to stay alive
I’ve just been sued, again
Every single day someone rolls the dice
Each and every day someone pays the price
Every single day danger in the street
Each and every day seems so bittersweet
We can’t help, but shed our blood
For the cause of modern love
For the divine heaven above
We should serve somebody beyond ourselves
(Dig it) Every single day someone rolls the dice
Each and every day someone pays the price
Every single day danger in the street
Each and every day seems so bittersweet

“Another Day” was written as a prelude to “Dig It” on my concept album. “Watching people argue about the world situation night after night makes me feel like I’m doing something about it.” This is a quote from a New Yorker cartoon. It inspired me to really start doing something and make a change in my own life.

Sunday Driver

Sunday Driver
Where he goes nobody knows
How he lives nobody really cares
A smile on his face
A tear drop in his eye
Falling down under
He devours his pride
Sunday driver
He soaked his mind into the sky
To absorb life he could not find
Sunday driver
Hundred miles an hour his thoughts race the car
Speeding down empty streets his mind is so far
Sunday driver
