Shining Horizon

©2009 David Moody

While I’m keeping my eyes on
That shining horizon
And riding off into the sunset
So much more than alive
I’m in overdrive
And I wonder if we’re having fun yet

I must thank you for carin’
And thank you for sharin’
And letting me into your life
Girl, if I had a mind to
Or was so inclined to
I’d ask you to be my wife

Dirty Windowpane

©2009 David Moody

I did all the right things wrong
Or I did all the wrong things right
I can’t even write a decent song
Lord, it’s no wonder I can’t sleep at night

I picked up my share of bad habits
And a red guitar that plays the blues
I learned to get pretty good at it
Now it’s the remedy I always chose

I’ll try to tell you what I’m feeling
All I feel is out of touch
Still I just go on revealing way too much
When I try to speak my mind
You look at me like I’m insane
I’m not so blind - it’s just this dirty windowpane

Alive, Aloud and Free

My lady likes the simple things
Like exchanging body heat
When every weekend morning brings
A chance to snuggle…sweet

But let me play those supple strings
As my heart provides the beat
The universal language of
Love spoken here
Love alive,
Aloud,
And free

Less Than One

©2009 David Moody

The smoke that clouds my guiding light
The alcohol that brings the truth
The time I spent just reticent
And hungry for some proof

That life is what you’re giving me
This life is what we’re living – we’d do well
To be forgiving of mistakes in our youth

This flesh and bone I call my home
This vehicle that sings my song
Is less than one without the love I’ve known
To give me courage and make me strong

For a life to build worth living
And a life that’s filled with giving – I’m as ready
As I’ll ever be, and I believe I was all along

Come On!

©2009 David Moody

You’re just like me
You lust like me
You want everything your way

And your strange desire
Finally lit my fire
Now there’s nothing else I can say, except

Come on!
You got something, baby
Won’t you let me ride along
Come on!
Tell you one thing, maybe
Hope I’m not too right or wrong
If I write you a song
And I want you to sing along
So, baby – come on!

Now you’re messing with me
Might be guessing that we
Have some toys that we could share

So I’m letting you know
I’m thinking, maybe so
I’ve always got a little more to spare
so baby,

Come on!

That's Sally

Such a pretty girl, and best of all
This girl’s a walking festival
You’ve never met a lady like this
She hails from the heart of the state of bliss
She makes it look easy
Puts a smile on my face
God put her here to tease me
With her style and grace
That's Sally

Make a Dream Tonight (it just feels so good)

©2009 David Moody

It just feels so good
Somehow I knew it would
It just feels so right
Here while I’m holding you tight
And both of us thinking maybe we could…
Make a dream tonight

It just feels so good
It so belongs in my neighborhood
When I hear the sound
Through my window -coming from downtown
And I was just thinking maybe we should…
Make a dream tonight

I’ll show you - that’s what I’ll do
I’ll make this woman’s dreams come true

I’ll show you how good it is
His love is hers, and hers is His
