life
never said it was easy
never said it was fair
never said that I loved you
never said that I care
never said it was love
never said it was fun
never said it was marriage
never said you was the one
never said it was perfect
never said it was great
never meant to hurt you
never meant love to hate

you
things are not the same
since god took you away
why did you have to go
I wish that you could stay
what’s it all about
why do we have to die
I wish I knew the answers
wish I knew just why
why cant things be different
why cant we live forever
living out our lives
knowing we would always be together

Crowded room
I saw you across a crowded room
I could not help but stare
the room was full of people
it felt like we were the only ones their
my heart began to flutter
my legs they went all weak
I found it hard to stand
I found it hard to speak
I made my way towards you
thought I would take a chance
I tapped you on the shoulder
and asked you for a dance
I listened to your voice
to every word you spoke
then it dawned on me
that you were a bloody bloke
I made a quick excuse
cot away as fast as I can
thought you was a women
but you’ve a bloody man

wait
must I wait for heavens gate
to see your face once more
if that’s so then I will go
and knock on heavens door
feels so sad the love we had
has gone but not forever
I must wait for the day
that we will be together
I love you mum like any son
I miss you yes I do
but knowing we will meet again
is enough to get me through

Blue sky
dear moon why so blue
alone up in the sky
not so bad but why so sad
as you watch the world go by
dear moon what do you see
as you look down on me
I am alone all on my own
no stars for company
dear moon why do you cry
do you feel my pain
tell moon will in find love
and happiness again
dear moon please stay a while
we were just having fun
you know its true I can talk to you
I cant talk to the sun
dear moon goodnight god bless
thanks for listening to my plight
I will sleep all day
I will see you again tonight

To young
to young to fall in love they say
but who are they to know
might be young and having fun
in time our love will grow
to young to settle down they say
but that’s not part of my plan
you treat my like a boy
when will you let me be a man
don’t grow up to fast
enjoy life have some fun
does not last forever
sometimes over before its begun
being young is special
the best time of our lives
plenty of time in the future
to be husbands and wives

New day
the sun comes up
a brand new day
ready to take on
what comes my way
each days a gift
not to be wasted
life is a drink
that’s got to be tasted
some days are good
some days are bad
some days you’ve happy
some days you’ve sad
if you have a bad one
don’t fill up with sorrow
you never know
what will happen tomorrow

New angle
god wanted a special angel
a really special one
so he came down to earth
and took away my mum
mum said I cannot go
I have my family here
god said you need a rest
your family will always be near
I have watched you live in pain
but now you have had enough
you my be strong in spirit
but your body isn’t so tough
come and sit beside me
you know you need a rest
you’ve earnt you special place
I only take the best

Binge drinker
I am a binge drinker
as happy as can be
30 pints of larger
are swishing round in me
five whiskies four rums
a couple pints of ale
me I drink like a fish
a bloody great big wale
weekend nights are mine
out their with the boys
drinking lots of shots
making lots of noise
finding it hard to talk
finding it hard to stand
but me I am a binge drinker
isn’t life bloody grand
stop of for a curry
nearly the end of the night
looking for a stranger
so I can start a fight
did I have a good night
find it hard to tell
must have gone alright
I woke up in this cell

Day of
bunking off of school
don’t need a education
hanging around the streets
what’s happened to our nation
all wearing hooded tops
you never see their face
smashing up phone box’s
don’t want to live in this place
send them to the army boys
let them confront their fears
the watch how hard they are
when they burst into tears

Over here
come and live in England
land of milk and honey
come over without nothing
we will give you lots of money
we will give you a home
though threes people on our street
we will feed your family
put shoes upon your feet
we will build you your own church
so you can kneel and pray
we will give you all you want
you don’t have to pay
we know you was not born here
does not matter at all
just like the Germans
we pulled down the bloody walls

Winter nights
im sick of winter nights
I want to see the sun
I want to put on shorts
I want to have some fun
Im sick of chilly nights
waking up to snow
I want to enjoy myself
but theirs know where I can go
its dark when I go to work
its dark when I leave at night
I must be suffering from SAD
I really miss the light
I want to sit in my garden
to drink a beer would be nice
but my garden is covered in snow
my patio if full of ice
I really miss the summer
how I wish that I was here
I do not like the winter
not my time of year

To short
life’s is to short to worry
life’s to short to be sad
life’s to short to ponder
on things you’ll never have
life’s to short for sadness
life’s to short for tears
never count the days
never count the years
life’s to short for falling out
life’s to short for war
life’s a gift don’t waste it
life is so much more

love
I guess I did not realise
the truth was written in your eyes
the love we had has died a death
I guess I shouldn’t hold my breath
I guess I thought our love was pure
now I guess imp not so sure
I loved you but you didn’t love me
so blinded by love I did not see

think
do you ever thing about
all the things you’ve done
the goods time and the bad times
the laughter and the fun
do you wish you could go back
and live a certain day
would you leave it as it was
or change it in some way
you meet the girl you loved and lost
be given a fresh start
the girl you really wanted
the girl who broke your heart
you know what you did wrong
a chance to put things right
a chance to make amends
to change that curtain night
how would it work out
was it meant to be
would you risk you future
just to go back and see

KIM
Woo Kim
why did you leave me for him
why did you make me sad
I still remember times we had
woo Kim
what am I suppose to do
you left and now I feel so blue
woo Kim
Now all I do is cry
but you never gave me a reason why
I met you one Christmas eve
I loved you at first sight
we got on well together
everything felt just right
you were still at school
they said you were to young
to young to settle down.
When you should be having fun
They could not stand to see us happy
they tried to make us part
I guess our love was doomed
right from the very start
but I tried to be perfect
I tried so hard to please
a wanted you to marry me
I proposed while on my knees
For a time I was so happy
to know you were with me
but I wanted to settle down
you wanted to be free
your mum gave me the letter
it broke my heart in two
you wanted to live your life
but what was I to do
But I heard it from my friends
that you had met another
someone that I had met once
he was working with you mother
you knew where I would be
so you always brought him along
you loved to see me suffer
what did I do so wrong
Now you two are married
oh how the years flew
but till the day I die
ill always remember you
what if things were different
if we had me at another time
instead of being him
you would just be mine

WHAT IF?????????????????
What would happen if war did cease
no more fighting only peace
no more worry no more fears
only laughter no more tears
no more hunger no more fights
every one have equal rights
no one to rich no one to poor
let them without be given more
no children hurt no more pain
may hot dessert get some rain
no more sadness only joy
our gift to every girl and boy
no more will our children tears
but live in a world of hope not fears

LORD
Lord help me walk the path that’s right
for somewhere I must have lost the way
I tried so hard to be your servant
but now I feel vie been led astray
I tried not to give in to temptation
but lord I fear I was not strong
forgive the error of my ways
let me see where I went wrong

DEATH
Death why cant you stay away
don’t keep knocking upon my door
how many times must you come
you’ve already taken four
why is it you pick on me
what did I do so wrong
I had people who I held dear
now thanks to you they’ve gone
I know we don’t live forever
I don’t expect that much
why must you bring such misery
to everything you touch
I don’t know why I am here
I guess I live and learn
never knowing what the future holds
or when it will be my turn

SEPTEMBER 11
the world stood still at two o’clock
all laughter turned to tears
upon this day the USA
confronted its greatest fears
a nation became a target
of cowards without pride
who never come out from the dark
where they choose to hide
out of the ashes will rise an eagle
watch as he sores up in the sky
for you will never take our freedom
no matter how hard you try
land of the free home of the brave
a place where dreams come true
you’ll never break our spirits
know matter what you do
So many lives husbands and wives
brothers lovers and kin
upon the day a war begun
a war we have to win
god bless thoughts who perished
god bless everyone
we will all stand together
until this war is won
God bless all hero’s
who gave their lives away
through their acts of bravery
others lived to see another day
for in times of trouble
on them we can depend
for the new York emergency services
to be their till the end
You never take our freedom
in hard time we bond together
never will we turn away
no here not now not ever

DONT TELL ME
Don’t tell me what to do
don’t tell me what to wear
don’t talk about my life style
don’t talk about my hair
don’t tell me you are ashamed
don’t say I turned out bad
don’t say I am the child
you wished you never had
I didn’t ask to be born
a child born from lust
now my world is fucked up
I don’t know who to trust
don’t tell me to get a job
keep telling me I am lazy
stop fucking up my head
stop trying to drive me crazy
you say I drive to fast
don’t say I think to slow
if you do not like it
you know where to go

CHRISTMAS
Christmas time and your not here
their is no joy and their is no cheer
no silvers bells no Christmas tree
all I want is you with me
no mistletoe no lights no holly
no Santa clause to can make me jolly
no Christmas cards no carols sung
no pulling crackers and having fun
no evergreen no snow so white
no cookies left out for Santa tonight
no decorations hung up high,
no flying reindeer in the sky.
No children’s laughter looks of joy
no child playing with a toy
no TV means no repeats
no big lunch just empty seats
no mistletoe or stolen kiss;
no shooting star to make a wish
for if you are not with me here
for me they’ll be no Christmas cheer
By john f Connor

IM STILL HERE
I may be gone but please don’t cry
death is not the last goodbye
death releases me of my pain
there will come a day we’ll meet again
don’t be blue and don’t be sad
think back to the fun we had
I am always here I hear you speak
in time of trouble its me you seek
you don’t see me but I see you
ill do my best to pull you through
speak to me and I will hear
never far I am always near
be brave my children do not cry
see you again its not goodbye

A TEAR
A tear for everyday together;
a tear for all the joy
a tear for our baby girl
a tear for our baby boy
a tear for the day I met you
a tear for our first kiss
a tear for our engagement
a tear for wedded bliss
a tear for all the good times
a tear for all the bad
a tear now you’ve not here no more
a tear for all we had

TAKE ME BACK
Take me back to the place I miss
take me back to where I was born
one last time to see the sunset
one last time to see the dawn
let me be with my family
the people I hold dear
I do not want to die alone
I want my family near
I want to say my last goodbyes
to the people close to me
I am not alone when I am back home
that’s where I want to be
By john f Connor
LOVE
Love came and went and now its gone
I am wondering where I went wrong
we had love and we had laughter
but that was not what she was after
she wanted thing I could not give
she couldn’t live the life I live
she wanted big house flashy car
live the life like a movie star
me I work from nine till five
with overtime I just survive
I am not rich and I am not poor
its not my fault I don’t earn more
but I am happy the way I am
its not what you earn that makes a man
By john f Connor
copywriter 2003
GOODBYE
I never thought it would end this way
me and you with nothing to say
been together all these years
times of laughter times of tears
thought what we had was true
all I ever wanted was you
me I did not need another
your my friend and my lover
now you say we’ve grown apart
you want to make a brand new start
but I don’t fit in that plan
you’ve found yourself another man
but I cannot change your mind
how can you be so unkind
I wish you well in all you do
my life is empty without you
but I know I must be strong
build a new life now you’ve gone

LOVE IS LOST
My love is lost
my love has gone
but I don’t know
what I done wrong
my love is lost
she left today.
She didn’t want to hear
what I had to say
my love is lost
I am all alone
life is hard
when I am on my own
love has gone
but I don’t regret
I still thank god
for day we met
love has gone
and I feel blue
now I don’t know
just what to do
love has gone
I don’t know why
I want to give it
one more try

ONLY YOU
I miss you today
I will miss you tomorrow
nothing can take away
all the pain and the sorrow
In my life there is something missing
there seems to be an empty space
no one can ever fill it
no one can take you place
I love you like no other
right till the very end
I didn’t just lose my husband
I lost my best friend

HALLOWEEN
The date was the 31st of October
this happened upon Halloween
a tale to turn your blood cold
a tale to make you SCREAM
I was driving my car late one night
I a hurry to get somewhere
a terrible storm was brewing
I was in a rush I did not care
the lightning lit up the sky
the howling wind did blow
holding tight on to my steering wheel
to scared to let go
I could just make out a figure
standing in the road ahead
my car begun to make a noise
the next thing it was dead
in front of me was clear now
the mist made things look blur
I sat their all alone
to scared to say a word

MOTHER
We will always remember you

Now you are at peace
now its time to rest
we thank got for our mother
for sending us the best

IN TIME
Their comes a time in everyone life
when its time to say goodbye
theirs no way to get away with it
its a fact of life that we die
Life’s a gift so do not waste it
make use of each and everyday

be careful what you say
Help them who are in need
both the hungry and the poor
to become a caring person
is what we live life for
By john f Connor
I MISS YOU
I miss your voice now your not here
I also miss you smile
I would give most everything
to have you back a while
So many years together
but now I all alone
together we were special
now I am on my own
God saw you were in pain
so he took you to rest
he must have had his reason
he did what he thought was best
I know you walk beside me
I often feel you near
even though you in heaven
I still know your here

OUR SON
The loss of a son breaks our hearts
sometimes to much to bare
the house seems oh so empty
now that you are not their
I thank god for the time we shared
I miss you more each day
god must have had his reasons
for taking you away
But one day we will be together
but until the day we do
you will always be in my thoughts
it’s all I have to pull me through
By john f Connor

FATHER
I really loved you dad
I feel you will never know
god must have had his reasons
why you had to go
A son can love his father
but never say it to his face
there never seems to be a time
their never seems to be a place
I hope you understood
but what can a boy do
the hardest words to say
is father I love you
By john f Connor
copywriter 2003
NO ONE
No one can take the pain away

the best wife a man could have
By john f Connor
copywriter 2003
GOODBYE
Don’t know how to watch you go
don’t know how to say goodbye
doctors say I should hold your hand
and watch as you die
I try so hard to hide my pain
don’t want you to see my tears
as I look at you lying their
I remember happy years
I love you with all my heart
without I am all alone
I don’t want you to leave me
I cant do this on my own
I hope god take care of you
like you took care of me
I know you really suffered
now you soul flies free

MY DAD
My father worked hard all his life
know time had he for pleasure
the moment that I had with him
are the memories I treasure
you always said goodnight to me
and place a kiss upon my head
you never cared how late it was
even if I was asleep in bed
you were gone before I woke
and did not get in till late
I wanted to be their to greet you
but mum would not let me wait
I never wanted for nothing
but I would give all I had
just to have had a little time
together with my dad
By john f Connor

LINDA
Linda you’ve all I ever wanted
you are all I will ever need
I could not ask for more
for that would just be greed
you give my life a reason
your my reason for living
every day I thank god
for the angle I was given
I look at you a wonder
why is it you picked me
but ever since I met you
I’ve been as happy as can be
for a angel walks this earth
that angel is mine
and I will always love her so
until the end of time

LONELY CHRISTMAS
Christmas time and your not here
for me they’ll be no Christmas cheer
no mistletoe no evergreen holy
no Santa clause can make me jolly
all alone on Christmas night
first snow fall turns the world white
but your not here you’ve far away
cant make it home for Christmas day
turkey is still frozen stiff
I guess I will not get my wish
all I want for Christmas was you
so make my dreams come true
how I wish it could come true
nothing I do could make you stay
so much more I wanted to say
I miss you so it hurts so much
you tender kiss that curtain touch

JUST A LETTER
Just had to write you a letter
upon this Christmas day
I am still in our old home town
and you’ve so far away
memories come flooding back
of times back in our past
our childhood was a endless summer
of times to good to last
I remember when you moved in
to the house across the road
I stood their at my window
and watched trucks unload
I remember as your dad parked up
and you got out the door
I knew my heart was lost to you
I fell in love with what I saw
I passed you many times
but found it hard to speak
till a group of us decided
to play a game of hide and seek
I ask you if you’d would like to pay
the hardest thing I’d ever done
I had to smile when you said yes
oh that day was fun
after that we became good friends
and spent much time together
when I think back I wish
it had stayed that way forever
time did pass and we grew up
together through teenage years
we built ourselves a special bond
though the laughter and the tears
I began to see you in a different way
feelings I could not could not
I should have told you how I felt
I guess it was my pride
I watched you go out with other guys
you even asked my for advice
if I had a chance to hold you near
I wouldn’t think about it twice
you said I was like a brother
a brother you never had
I smiled and a thank you
I hid the fact that I was sad
your future was ahead of you
it was time to let you go
I waved to you at the station
it hurt more than you’ll ever know
I heard all about your life
you would always write a letter
my life was dull and boring
your life seemed much better
I heard that you were coming home
but inside I was full of rage
you mum said you’d met a man
that you two were engaged
I smiled and wished you all the best
I even wished him well
outside I was putting on a brave face
even though I was going through hell
at Christmas time I think of you
I always do this time of year
but you are far away
and I am the one stuck here

DEAR SANTA
Last year I asked you for a bike
but you gave me a ball
all my friend got what he asked for
me I got fuck all
you don’t like me very much
you made me look a twit
I tried to be a good boy
you left me a load of shit
hope your reindeers get the shits
I hope your sleigh cant fly
cause if I hear you jingle bell
I will shoot you out the sky
I will piss into you milk
your cookies will be made if dirt
I you wish me merry Christmas
I will kick you where it hurts
so best you stay at home.
Don’t go out tonight
if you want to keep your job
get me my fucking bike

YOU
. I brought her lots of presents
got her roses by the bunch
dressed up in a suit and tie
and took her out to lunch
treated her like royalty
treated her like a queen
but that was never enough
All you did was treat me mean
I give up drinking with my mates
even give up smoking
told my mum id found the one
she thought that I was joking
through away my little black book
put old girlfriends in the past
thought you were the one for me
a love that’s built to last
went and got my hair cut
even had a bath
told my brother I was in love
that gave him a laugh
I brushed my teeth each morning
and then again at night
took along time to clean the stains
now they’ve nice and white
took you to the movies
brought you lots of sweets
pain a little extra
made sure we had good seats
worked a lot of overtime
put in a lot of hours
sent you round nice chocolate
and a lovely bunch of flowers
even met your parents
made sure I was polite
even though you dad went on
and talked a load of shite
all these things I done for you
I thought you were the one
you say its all over
it was just a bit of fun
go to hell drop dead I say
hope your car ends up in a ditch
you took me for an idiot
now I know you’ve just a bitch

MINDS EYE
Shut your eyes and open you mind

a place you know is always their
Close your eyes and open your mind
you never know what you may find

I DREAM
I dream of peace and understanding
surely that’s not to demanding
I dream of a world free from war
that’s a dream worth waiting for
a world without hunger pain or fear
where no one need shed a tear
a world of laughter joy and fun
a world without need to carry a gun
safe to walk the streets at night
and know that you will be alright
a world where illness has a cure
that’s a world worth waiting for
but is my dream within my grasp
if so can we make it last
let our children fear know more
that’s a world worth waiting for

A Childs eye
Through the eyes of a child
Though the eyes of a child
this world seems a special place
see the look upon his face
and the answers all lie their
through the eyes of a child
every thing is new
always finding pleasure
in everything they do
through the eyes of a child
is a world without pain
live their life for the day
theirs always sunshine after rain
through the eyes of a child
their lies life’s true meaning
their much more to a child
than tantrums mess and screaming
through the eyes of a child
is the place we would like to be
for their a child in everyone
you and him and me

I guess its because of my size
they shout out YOU FAT BARSTED
and WHO EAT ALL THE PIES
its not my fault I am fat
I was skinny once you know
but the more I bloody eat
the more I bloody grow
yes I tried to diet
but I find it hard you see
mc Donald’s for my breakfast
Kentucky for my tea
now my trousers do night fit me
my belly just grows and grows
it hard to find my wily
and I cannot see my toes

The one
For me there will be know other
You’re my best friend and my lover
You know its true
So love me never leave me
Be true and don’t deceive me
Don’t make me blue
So take my heart don’t break it
For together we can make it
I know we can
For one thing I know for sure
Is that our love is pure
You’re the man
For I could never love another
As much as I love you
In the good times and the bad times
I know our love will see us through
You are all I have ever wanted
A bond that cannot be broken
I can see love in your eyes
And in the words you’ve spoken
When we met it felt so right
It broke my heart to say goodnight
That’s much is true
For I need to feel you by my side
This endless love I cannot hide
Away from you
You are all I could ever need
To ask for more would just be greed
We belong together
Because with you it feels so right
You turn my darkness into light
So leave me never
Chorus
For I could never love another
As much as I love you
In the good times and the bad times
I know our love will see us through
You are all I have ever wanted
A bond that cannot be broken
I can see love in your eyes
And in the words you’ve spoken
In this world I was all alone
Out of love and on my own
Till you came along
You a blue sky after a storm
You’re the reason I was born
You make me strong
You give but never take
I have learnt from my mistake
Ill never let you go
And everyday in everyway
You will always hear me say
I love you so
Chorus
For I could never love another
As much as I love you
In the good times and the bad times
I know our love will see us through
You are all I have ever wanted
A bond that cannot be broken
I can see love in your eyes
And in the words you’ve spoken
Repeat to fade
For I could never love another
As much as I love you
In the good times and the bad times
I know our love will see us through
You are all I have ever wanted
A bond that cannot be broken
I can see love in your eyes
And in the words you’ve spoken

TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT
Never been one to show my feelings
I keep them buried deep in side
Don’t want you to see your hurt me
I try to hold on to my pride
For you took my heart and broke it
For no reason I can see
I thought you were my soul mate
How can you do these things to my
How do you hold on to a love that’s lost?
What ever it takes no matter what the cost
How do you hold on to a love that’s gone?
When I don’t know what I done wrong
I thought I made you happy
But I was such a fool
I was good to you
Though you treated me cruel
You were my life
You were my reason to live
But all you did is take
Never did you give
How do you hold on to a love that’s lost?
What ever it takes no matter what the cost
How do you hold on to a love that’s gone?
When I don’t know what I done wrong
But in the end life goes on
I know I must be strong
Must wake up from this dream
Of a love that’s gone
Friend say move one
It will get better in time
But falling in love with you
Was my only crime?
How do you hold on to a love that’s lost?
What ever it takes no matter what the cost
How do you hold on to a love that’s gone?
When I don’t know what I done wrong

Love is
Love is full of broken hearts
Love is full of lies
For everyone that happy
Another one cries
Love is never ending
Love is full of sorrow
Love you have today
Maybe gone tomorrow
Chorus
But will we ever learn
For loves a silly game
You’re laughing in the sunshine
And crying in the rain
One minute you’re on a high
Next you’re on a low
One minute you have everything
Next you’ve got know where to go
Love is full of laughter
Love is full of tears
Love knows all your dreams
Love knows all your fears
Love can make you happy
Love can mate you sad
Love can make you crazy
Love can drive you mad
Chorus
But will we ever learn
For loves a silly game
You’re laughing in the sunshine
And crying in the rain
One minute you’re on a high
Next you’re on a low
One minute you have everything
Next you’ve got know where to go
Love is full of heartbreak
Love is full of tears
Love is full of wasted moments
Love is full of wasted years
Love if full of questions
Love is full of answers
Love is full of missing
Love is full of chances
Chorus
But will we ever learn
For loves a silly game
You’re laughing in the sunshine
And crying in the rain
One minute you’re on a high

Three little word
I only ever wanted to hear three little word from you
I love you I need to know you love me to
Three little words you know that’s all it takes
We’ve only human I guess we all make some mistakes
Three little word to say you love me so
My hearts unsure I don’t know why but I need to know
Three little words can take the pain away
But some how they are words you cannot say
I love you
I love you
Their the word I long to hear
I love you
I love you
Cause to lose you is my biggest fear
I love you
I love you
Please say those words for me
I love you
I love you
Wont you listen to my plea
I do not know how long we’ve been together
Or if our loves the kind to last forever
But I know that I couldn’t live life without you
For I need to know you feel the same way to
Say the words and put my mind at rest
Is this a game is this some kind of test
If this is oh say that I have past
Let me know our love was built to last
I love you
I love you
Their the word I long to hear
I love you
I love you
Cause to lose you is my biggest fear
I love you
I love you
Please say those words for me
I love you
I love you
Wont you listen to my plea

drunk
I wake is a haze of a drunken craze
From the night I had be for
Too much to drink I didn’t think
Just what I did it for
Reality means nothing to me
The future is looking bleak
The bottom of a bottle
Is the company I seek?
One more for my mother
One more for my dad
One more for the girls I have loved
And all the friends I have had
One more for any reason
One more for the road
Just one more till I am at deaths door
And put down life’s heavy load
I cannot bare the future
Full of love I won and lost
Where nothing comes without a price
Know matter what the cost
I had hopes I had dreams
But none of them came to plan
Now I am just a heap on the street
A tired and drunken man
One more for my mother
One more for my dad
One more for the girls I have loved
And all the friends I have had
One more for any reason
One more for the road
Just one more till I am at deaths door
And put down life’s heavy load
I wanted to settle down I did
Be a father have a wife
I didn’t ask for much as such
Just a normal life
But one day she ran away
The kids went into care
Who said life was easy
Who said life was fair
One more for my mother
One more for my dad
One more for the girls I have loved
And all the friends I have had
One more for any reason
One more for the road
Just one more till I am at deaths door
And put down life’s heavy load
By heavens gate I sit and wait
Its judgment time for me
For I wasted the gift of life
Thought death would set me free
He sat there on his big white chair
My story failed to shed a tear
He said theirs another place for you
For you not welcome hear
One more for my mother
One more for my dad
One more for the girls I have loved
And all the friends I have had
One more for any reason
One more for the road
Just one more till I am at deaths door
And put down life’s heavy load

Our love
I thought our love was special
I thought our love was true
I kept on coming back
After all you put me through
I gave with out taking

But I guess I'm not your kind
Thank you for the memories
So long goodbye farewell
I will get by without you
Closer to heaven than I am to hell

How much
How much does for a sunset
How much for a kiss
How much for a smile
How much for a wish
How much for a mother
How much for a dad
How much to be happy
How much to be sad
How much for a blue sky
How much for a stream
How much for a child love
How much for a dream
How much for a thank you
How much for a please
How much for the clouds
How much for the trees
Take a look around
Look at all you see
The best things in life are free
I'm sure you will agree
By John F Connor
don’t care
I don't care what they say
I don't care what they do
The only thing that I want
Is to be here with you
I don't want to die here among strangers
I want to have my family all around
I want to go back to the valley
Where a bird in song is the sweetest sound
I never could never understand
The reasons why we had to part
Outside I try to smile
I thought it is tearing me apart
I thought our love was special
I thought our love was strong
I thought we would last forever
How could I have been so wrong
It's over
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to make you cry
I guess we were not meant to be
I had to be the one to say goodbye
You and me have run our course
Its time to go our different ways
All we ever seem to do is row
Gone are the happy days
I don't want you to hate me
We had good times together
But its true and we both knew
They could not last forever
So with this I say good-bye
I wish for you the best
We gave love our best shot
But did not pass the test
Lost generation
A boy lays in the gutter
A needle by his side
A life so short a last resort
He even lost his pride
He lived without a future
Then he died without a life
He will never know the happiness
Of children and a wife
For they say it will not harm you
They say you will feel no pain
For they know once you try it
That you will be backing again
For a pusher makes a million
He will make it out of sorrow
Another trip another hit
Another death tomorrow
By John F Connor
Love
I could never love another
As much as I love you

And I think about you at night
I count down every hour
Until I can hold you tight

Meaning of life
I looked down at the bed
It was me who was lying there
I could see my wife was crying
As she sat there in a chair
The doctors were saying sorry
They pulled the sheets over my face
I could see it all
While floating in a space
Then I saw a dark tunnel
Where at the end a light did glow
I heard a sweet voice say to me
That it was time for me to go
So I drifted in the dark
Heading for the light
I felt that all my pain was gone
In side I felt so right
I stepped out of the darkness
I see my father standing there alone
He said son don't be afraid son
I have come to take you home
I have never seen the grass so green
And the rivers clear and blue
Time to think about my life
And all the things I wanted to do
Life is what you make it
Not about money house and car
Life about helping others
And finding out just who you are
By John F Connor
My Dad
I really loved my father
How I wished I had told him so
For now that he has past away
I fear he will never know
He spoke in words of wisdom
He showed me right from wrong
He taught me to be fair
He taught me to be strong
He was a very special father
He was the world to me
But God saw he was in pain
And decided to set him free
The house is not the same any more
I miss him not being there
I look at all his photos
While I sit upon his old chair
I think back on the good times
And all the fun we had
You will always be my father
The best a son could have
by john f connor
My son
I did not know what life was about
Until you came alone
Just one look at you
And all my worries were gone
When I held you in my arms
And you looked up at me
I will devote my whole life
Being the best father I can be
I will always be there for you
I will never let you down
And if you ever need me
I will always be around
I life you can depend on me
I will be your number one
I will always be you father
And you will always be my son

New dawn
A whiff of hair
Eyes of blue
Out of the dark
Into a world of new
First breath of air
First time to cry
So much to learn
New things to try
First time you see me
First time I see you
So much to see
So much to do
Very first sunrise
Like your life at its dawn
But its time to sleep
As you give out a yawn
Sleep well little prince
May your dreams be sweet?
For now I have you
My life is complete

my angle
On earth you are my angle
My special dream comes true
In life there could be no other
For all I will ever want is you
IT
by john f connor copywriter 2002
I was lying in my bed
Trying to sleep one night
Suddenly it all went quiet
And my room was lit up bright
I could see it there
Standing by my door
A tiny little thing all green
Something I had never seen before
It told me not to worry
It told me not to scream
Was it really standing there?
Or was it a bad dream
It told me not to worry
I said beg you pardon
It said it had lost control
And landed in my garden
Then I saw it smile
I could see it was afraid
It said it was sorry
For all the mess it had made
I was scared of him
And he was scared of me
I looked out to the garden
To see what I could see
I could not see its space ship
Just a hole where it had landed
I felt sorry for this thing
I knew that he was stranded
Soon my fear subsided
I began to feel quiet calm
I could see it was scared
It had not come to harm
It told me were it came from
And the kind of life it led
It did not seemed to be scared
It even sat upon my bed
I said that I would help it
Find it somewhere to hide away
And find some way to get it home
We talked till the light of day
Next thing I heard my mother
I could hear her moving around
I told it to be quiet
And not to make a sound
I hid it in the closet
Just as mum came to my room
She said breakfast was ready
I said I would be down soon
I told it I had to go to school
I would see him when I return
He wanted to know what I did there
I told it I go there to learn
I got upon the school bus
My friend Jim was waiting on our seat
He waits for me every morning
It's the place we always meet
I told him about the night before
Oh the look upon his face
I told him about the space ship
And my visitor from space
He thought that I was joking
He just sat there and laughs
He said I had better see a doctor
Just in case I was going daft
After school Jim and me
Went back to my house
And when he saw it standing there
He went as quiet as a mouse
Jim said he was feeling dizzy
To me he looked bit sick
He said he wanted to change his pants
For he had dome something in it
I thought that you were joking he said
What are we going to do?
I said we would have to help
To him everything was new
It liked to watch the telly
He sat there for many hours
It liked the taste of our food
Even eat my mother's flowers
But mother never saw him
I had told him to stay away
I was glad when school was over
It had been such a long day
When I got in the house
I through my coat upon the floor
I ran up to my bedroom
And then I locked the door
I looked for it everywhere
Was he gone or was he dead
But I spotted his glowing eyes
He was hiding under my bed
I asked it if it was ok
Had you been hiding there all day
He said when my mum went out
That's when it came out to play
It thought our world was strange
It thought our world was fun
It said its race had watched us
Since time had begun
They visit in there spaceships
They watch us from the sky
Watching all the changes
We do as time goes by
One day will talk to us
When they feel the time is right
They feel it's not safe yet
For all we seem to do is fight
He said he was sent to watch us
He had swerved to miss a plane
Then he had lost all his power
And could not get it started again
LIFE
OFTEN IS THE TIME I HAVE SAT AND THOUGHT
WHAT LIFE IS ALL ABOUT
I TRY TO FIND LIFE'S MEANING
I TRY TO WORK IT OUT
LIFE IS NOT ABOUT MONEY
THAT'S ONE THING I KNOW FOR SURE
LIFE IS JUST A TEST
BE YOU RICH OR BE YOU POOR
THE MEANING OF LIFE IS LEARNING
TO COPE WITH TASKS THAT COME ALONG
ENJOYING THINGS AROUND YOU
LEARNING AND GROWING STRONG
FAMILY IS IMPORTANT
WE MUST LEARN TO TEACH THEM WELL
NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THE FUTURE
AS ONLY TIME WILL TELL
DEATH IS NOT THE END
DEATH IS JUST THE START
WE TAKE WITH US ALL WE HAVE LEARNT
FROM THIS WORLD WE DEPART

She’s Gone
She’s gone
I guess I know that now
She’s gone
But I will carry on somehow
She’s gone
Why did I let her go
She’s gone
But I still love her so
She told me that she loved me so
Then she broke my heart in two
After all the things we said
After all that we’ve been through
She didn't have a reason
She said that it was time to go
I have so many questions
But the answers I will never know
She’s gone
I guess I know that now
She’s gone
But I will carry on somehow
She’s gone
Why did I let her go
She’s gone
But I still love her so
Father
I have always love my father
I really wished I had told him so
For now he has passed away
I guess he will never know
I wanted him to be proud of me
I wanted him to see me do so well
Sometimes I really messed things up
I put myself through hell
God only knows I miss him
God only knows I care
I still keep walking into his house
In the hope he might be there
But someday I know we will meet again
And I know just what I will do
I will hold him very tightly
And say father I love you

Heaven Of Hell
I don't believe it just my luck
Got to heaven and it was full up
Went down to have a look at hell
That dam place was full as well.
I knocked again on heavens gate
There I was told I was to late
Where can I go I have know place
Must I spend my time up here in space.
So I thought I would make the most
Go back to earth and become a ghost
Got to earth just my luck
Sorry know more ghost we've all full up.

Remember
An old lady tends a graveside
she’s been there for many hours
teardrops fill her eyes
as she tenderly lays some flowers
many years they were together
many years as man and wife
a very special bond
they shared throughout there life
but he was getting tired
god did what he thought to be best
god saw he was in pain
so he took him to rest
So she waits for that day
when her pain is at an end
when she will be back in the arms
of her lover and her friend

Shame
Last night I woke up with a scream
I really had a terrible dream
I dreamt I was blind I could not see
and everyone they picked on me.
They shouted and they pushed me around
until I feel upon the ground
Even then they carried on
although I had done a nothing wrong.
If your body is not all there
They pick you out they look they stare
You feel so guilty you feel the shame
Even though your not to blame
What if it was not me but it was them
Maybe then they would think again
Maybe then they would understand
And make this place a better land.
