Another Love Song (c)Kevin Fisher/Mark McGuinn I wrote you a song you’re gonna love to hate, hate to love Either way baby, you’ll turn it up Straight from my heart, right into yours Complete with cliché and metaphor you’ve heard before Now, if you think it’s trite, you’re right, it might be But, honey, good love songs are like ice cream You can never fill up, never get enough of a good thing Does the world really need another love song Another “you don’t know how much I miss you when you’re gone” Another clever forever I’ll be true to you Well, yes we do, here it is, sing along I love you, I do I love you, and it’s true Tell me what’s wrong, what’s wrong With another love song From the radio waves straight to the elevator It’s the on-hold music when you call the operator Instead of whistling Dixie, you’ll be whistling it It’s the itty-bitty ditty that you can’t forget Now, if you think it’s trite, you’re right, it might be But, honey, good love songs are like ice cream You can never fill up, never get enough of a good thing CHORUS Now every love song needs a beautiful bridge Well, here it is: The London, The Brooklyn, The Golden Gate Isn’t that bridge great Isn’t it great CHORUS

Go Back In Time (c)Kevin Fisher She asked him, “Do you love her?” He stumbled on his answer He knew she knew It was way too late to Go back in time Before the question, before the crime Before the crossing of the line Before he knew she knew It was way too late to Go back in time She will forgive but won’t forget He’ll have to learn to live with regret She asked him, “Do you love me?” He said, “I feel the way I felt back when we first were married” But he knew she knew It was way too late to Go back in time

Love Is Ageless ©Kevin Fisher She was seventeen He was seventeen, too A couple kids in love What could anybody do But ten years down the road Look at them now They made it through some hard times Somehow Love is ageless, love is timeless Love is always deep inside us Love is magic and sometimes tragic It’s a gift that heaven gladly gave us Love is ageless She was forty one He was forty eight Second time around Making up for some mistakes But a touch is still a touch And a kiss is still a kiss They held each other close And sang “you must remember this” …gonna find us She was eighty four He was five years gone But she felt the earth move When she played their favorite song …gonna bind us

I'll Be Fine 03:01
I’ll Be Fine (c)Kevin Fisher Whatever may come my way. I’ll be fine Tomorrow is another day, I’ll be fine Life is short, life is hard, I’ll be fine Every breath’s a brand new start, I’ll be fine I worked my fingers to the bone My pockets held all that I own Fell asleep where I laid down I thousand welcomes I’ve worn out I’ve learned enough that I can say, hey Whatever may come my way, I’ll be fine Tomorrow is another day, I’ll be fine I’ve lost at love, I’ll try again, I’ll be fine I don’t know where, I don’t know when, I’ll be fine I pulled myself up off the mat Lost my faith, got it back Sat upon a mountain top And thanked the Lord for all I got The simple things are everything I need, hey Whatever may come my way, I’ll be fine Tomorrow is another day, I’ll be fine This big old world one day will end, I’ll be fine If those pearly gates will let me in, I’ll be fine Dancing on those streets of gold, I’ll be fine Forever young, that’s what I’m told, I’ll be fine So whatever may come my way. I’ll be fine Tomorrow is another day, I’ll be fine Life is short, life is hard, I’ll be fine Every breath’s a brand new start, I’ll be fine I’ll be fine

The Boston Straggler (c)Kevin Fisher I was born in Concord, Mass, a mile from Walden Pond With no silver spoon, no fine cut glass, no sacred magic wand My father was a drunkard, my mom a drunkard’s wife I left home at fifteen, much too young to start a life I took a bus to Boston, I know it’s not that far But all I had was fifty cents, my clothes and this guitar But I found my way to Harvard Square and I opened up my case And sang like I was Elvis and like I owned the place A cop threw in a five spot, said get something to eat We don’t need no stragglers begging on the street, guess I’m the Boston Straggler, brother can you spare a dime I’m the Boston Straggler, but I’m only killing time By my eighteenth birthday I knew my way around I could dine behind the finest restaurants anywhere in town Summers I would sit out by the Charles to see it flow Laugh beneath the sunlight and watch them yuppies row Now I could hate my life, hate the destiny I’ve got I could even get a job but I think I’d rather not, cause CHORUS All the kids from Harvard and all their teacher, too And the hippies down on Mass Ave, and the ones from Boston U They would gather by the checkerboards to hear me sing my songs And fill my case with money and sometimes sing along They’d sing, “I was born in Concord, Mass., a mile from Walden Pond With no silver spoon, no fine cut glass, no sacred magic wand There were songs of fallen soldiers, songs about my life A song about a preacher man and three about his beautiful wife, who I liked And when the nights were over I’d wish them luck in school And say don’t forget the difference between Falstaff and the Fool, and the CHORUS

Mrs. McCoy 03:44
Mrs. McCoy (c)Kevin Fisher Mrs. McCoy had a girl and a boy A husband who was brave and true But long since lately passed away Her hair is grey but in a younger day You could tell she wore it well In her sky blue Chevrolet She still lives on the plot of land her husband plowed with his own hands And walks out in the garden like she always has She laughs and says that she intends to lay herself down next to him So they can watch the stars from underneath the grass And every Sunday I arrive, thankful that she’s so alive Smiling like a child with a toy Mrs. McCoy She loved to dance but rarely had the chance Her husband was her one true love But never found the beat If she only could she swears to God she would Stumble through his clumsy moves Bless his two left feet She stares out at some memory that touches her reminding me That there are secrets only lifetime lovers know She shakes it off and carries on, asks me how my week has gone And taps her foot to something on the radio And every Sunday I arrive, thankful that she’s so alive Smiling like a child with a toy Mrs. McCoy And when I pray I always say Thank you Lord, for making her She still lives on the plot of land her husband plowed with his own hands And walks out in the garden like she always has She laughs and says that she intends to lay herself down next to him So they can watch the stars from underneath the grass And every Sunday I arrive to see the one who gave me life And taught me how to fill it up with joy Mrs. McCoy

Big Bang 03:06
Big Bang (c)Kevin Fisher I believe in the Big Bang, I believe in the Bible I believe in Jesus Christ and I believe in his rival I believe that a six day world took a billion years to make I believe in a thousand gods and all but one’s a fake I could be wrong, I could be crazy My logic gone, my intellect lazy But one day I’ll know for certain what’s really true I’ll see behind the curtain, but ‘til I do I believe in the Big Bang I believe in Darwin, I believe in Freud I believe that the modern world has got us paranoid I believe that I prayer is stronger than an atom bomb I believe in the internet at XXX.com I could be wrong, I could be crazy My logic gone, my intellect lazy But one day I’ll know for certain what’s really true I’ll see behind the curtain, but ‘til I do I believe in the Big Bang We’re all just flickers in this galaxy Still my whole universe revolves around me I could be wrong, I could be crazy My logic gone, my intellect lazy But one day I’ll know for certain what’s really true I’ll see behind the curtain, but ‘til I do I believe in the Big Bang

Keep Moving Forward (c)Kevin Fisher The lark and the whippoorwill The daisy and daffodil Try to think on these things The subtle and whispered sound Of fall leaves falling down Try to think on these things And let the rest roll off your back Life is a challenge, that’s a fact Keep moving forward I know you hurt but here’s the deal Everything living tends to heal So keep moving forward, keep moving forward The blush of a spring-fed rose Wet grass in between your toes Try to think on these things Fearlessly diving in Falling in love again Try to think on these things And let the rest just fade to black Time isn’t something you get back Keep moving forward I understand the way you feel But everything living tends to heal So keep moving forward, keep moving forward This is something that I know I’m familiar with the road There are two ways you can go You can live life in the past Or take account of what you have And keep moving forward Because in the end the deal Is if you want to you can heal So keep moving forward, keep moving forward Keep moving forward The lark and the whippoorwill The daisy and daffodil
9.
The Way I Feel (c)Kevin Fisher There’s a hole in my heart the size of your heart A place in my life to place your life There’s a smile that I wear around your smile A hope that I’ve had for a long while I hope you feel the way I feel There’s a hunger and thirst that comes with loving And there’s nothing on earth that’s satisfying When the wanting is far from the having It’s a mountain that rises with the climbing So I hope you feel the way I feel Isn’t that just like love to be painful and beautiful How it won’t give up until every breath is breathed Until every dream is dreamed and dying still believes It was worth the journey There’s a hole in my heart the size of your heart A place in my life to place your life There’s a smile that I wear around your smile And a hope that I’ve had for a long while And I hope you feel the way I feel Yes, I hope you feel the way I feel
10.
Something You’re Not (c)Leah Andreone/Kevin Fisher You can flow like a river You can love like a saint Beg like a sinner For mercy and grace Fight like an underdog Give it all you got But you can’t be something you’re not You can dream like a mystic Of some heavenly land Or be more realistic Feel the warmth of the sand Steal a thousand kisses And never get caught But you can’t be something you’re not So just be who you are Everybody is a star Do your thing, it’s all right Share your love, shine your light Doesn’t matter what anyone says When it comes to being you, you’re the best You’re the best You can have everything that you need Everything you want But you can’t be something you’re not So just be who you are Everybody is a star Do your thing, it’s all right Share your love, shine your light Doesn’t matter what anyone says When it comes to being you, you’re the best And you can’t be, no you can’t be You just can’t be something you’re not Something you’re not
11.
We Belong Together (c)Kevin Fisher You are the one thing that makes me happy You always light up the dark Right my your side is the best vacation You are my superstar Me loving you is pure and simple I wear my heart on my sleeve You loving me is a lifelong summer So here’s what I believe Hey hey I believe in you you You believe in me me We belong together baby (2X) Life doesn’t have to be so complicated Love doesn’t always have to hurt I get to be the exception to the rule Start my day with dessert Cause you are my sweet sweet situation And I never want to get out You pull me in like gravitation Baby, you make me want to scream and shout CHORUS We belong together, baby (2X) CHORUS
12.
So Simple 02:57
So Simple (c)Kevin Fisher/Victoria Shaw/Hillary Scott Go to school, find some work Drive a truck, dig some dirt Fall in love, settle down It’s so simple it’s profound Raise a kid, maybe two Take some pride in what you do Keep looking up when things are down It’s so simple it’s profound Sometime the obvious is so hard to see We make a mountain of simplicity And though life feels like a mystery to me Here’s what I have found It’s so simple it’s profound Be satisfied with what you’ve got Who you are, what you’re not It’s a real good day if you’re above the ground It’s so simple it’s profound It’s so simple it’s profound
13.
When The Walls Came Down (c)Kevin Fisher When the walls came down There was smoke from the fire still burning There were soldiers whose lives were returning As ashes and dust to the earth When the walls came down There were flags from the enemy falling There were voices in unison calling To return to the place of our birth Where we fought like the angels of hell were brought in And the floods of the Bible were rising again And our feet were dug hard in the ground When the walls came down When the walls came down There were mothers whose teardrops were kissing The photos of those who were missing And whose memories the centuries will fade When the walls came down There were prayers for the dead and the dying With the papers impatiently trying To make sense of the final crusade Where we fought like the end of the world was at hand We held to our hearts and our chain of command And the news reached the outskirts of town When the walls came down Dreaming of days when the land was a peace And thunder was nothing to fear We knew in our hearts that the fighting would cease And the world all around us would hear When the walls came down Where we fought like the end of the world was at hand We held to our hearts and our chain of command And the news reached the outskirts of town When the walls came down

Richard Seed 03:03
Richard Seed (c)Kevin Fisher Richard Seed and just decreed He’ll clone himself, oh yes indeed A Harvard grad, once good, gone bad Nine months from now will be his own Dad How will he do it? Can it be done? Without a woman will it be fun? Will he get drunk in some slinky bar Then invite himself in the backseat of his car Oh, Richard Seed, Richard Seed Did the stick turn blue when you pee’d You got a wife, now get a life You’re the science community’s Barney Fife Maybe you smoked a bit too much weed Oh, Richard Seed Now this sick pup gets himself up And shoots his future into a Dixie cup And with a swish he makes a wish And pours himself into a petri dish Whatever happened to falling in love And making a baby, is that not enough Science is good for all the knowledge it brings But even Darwin would say, “don’t monkey with things” Oh, Richard Seed, Richard Seed You let a sheep in Scotland take the lead So don’t surmise you’ll get the Nobel Prize For pulling the wool over everyone’s eyes You’re just a clone ranger with a beaker to feed Oh, Richard Seed

about

Naked To The World Los Angeles, California

We tried to break up. But there must be some quantum time-shift or random wormhole that forces us to slide back into perpetual existence. We started in 1993, garnered some accolades, released 5 CDs, toured the U.S., had our songs cut by major artists, and garnered a bit of commercial airplay ourselves. We are grateful for everyone who has ever come to one of our shows and enjoyed our music. ... more
