Maybe This Is The Time – DJ Trotsky
Maybe this is the time. Maybe this is the season
Maybe this is the moment. I'm in love with you
Maybe there's no rhyme. Maybe there's no reason
But maybe this is the moment I'm in love with you
In another galaxy. In a parallel dimension
We've been together all our lives
But here on earth. On the planet of our birth
This is our moment And I'm in love with you.
Weightless on earth. We'll stay young forever
Side by side. And I'm in love with you.
High above the mountains. Underneath the sea
Timeless forever And I'm in love with you.
A million years ago. Trudging through the tundra
We ran together. And I'm in love with you.
In another galaxy. In a parallel dimension
We've been together all our lives
But here on earth. On the planet of our birth
This is our moment. And I'm in love with you.
Now I look across the room. And I see you with your friends
And I know in an instant I'm in love with you
And I stumble with the words. And I call upon the courage
To introduce myself. Cause I'm in love with you.
And I see it in your face. And I'll take the time it takes
To get to know your heart. Cause I'm love with you.
This is our moment. And I'm in love with you.
This is our moment. And I'm in love with you.
This is our moment. And I'm in love with you.
This is our moment. And I'm in love with you.

Something/Anything © 2020 David Brownstein
Bobby got a bus to Washington, D.C.
To be a face to millions on TV
Got arrested, spent the night in jail
Fell in love with Jill who paid his bail
Starry eyed, electrified
They danced across the great divide
The sky is open wide, in front of me
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
Brenda teaches kids in a rundown, downtown school
Finger painting and some golden rules
Darrell collects his son on one dark night
And a little spark between them, caught on fire, and the room was filled with light.
Starry eyed, electrified
They danced across the great divide
The sky is open wide, in front of me
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
Bobby, Jill and Brenda, Darrel, Kim and Sue
Met one night to plan something to do
Each one brought a friend, and a plate to eat
The party started small but the sound got loud
And they heard it down the street.
Starry eyed, electrified
They danced across the great divide
The sky is open wide, in front of me
And he said . . .
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
I can’t do everything, but I can do anything
Don’t have to do anything, but we must do something
Gotta do Something
I can do anything
Let’s do something
I can do anything
We gotta do something
We can do anything
Gotta do something
We can do anything
Gotta do something
Lets do something
We gotta do something

God will you say if you still love me?
Words and music – © 2021 David Brownstein
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
god will you say if you still love me
even though we disagree on
some important topics now and then
yes i know it’s so important
to keep a little distance
to keep a mystery . . . i know
and you don’t speak directly
except to certain interested
parties who have taken on the task
and i know you can see me
but you don’t show your face
but some would say your hand
is everywhere
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.
and i’m waiting for the answers
me and everybody else
We’re waiting for the moment
That you reveal yourself
and we’re praying for the answers
me and everybody else
waiting for the moment
when you reveal yourself
and i know you can see me
watching from above
but i don’t understand
the way you show your love
and i hope you can hear me
the words to this song
if you’ve got the time
you can sing along
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
and i’m waiting for the answers
me and everybody else
We’re waiting for the moment
That you reveal yourself
and we’re praying for the answers
me and everybody else
waiting for the moment
when you reveal yourself
god won’t you tell me you love me now?
god won’t you tell me you love me now?
god won’t you tell me you love me now?
god won’t you tell me you love me now?

Million dollar day - © David Brownstein
Overdrawn and overplayed
Under loved and under-paid
I see my life go retrograde
But it’s gonna be a million, dollar day
Perfect plan will start the day
Winds of change wash it away
Trim your sails and fly away
It’s gonna be a million, dollar day
Blood and sweat and tears all day
Trampled by the soft parade
Read the signs, what they say
It’s gonna be a million, dollar day

What To Say To A Ghost – David Brownstein
What to say to a Ghost?
When he speaks in a language not my own
How to deal with a ghost
How to deal with a memory not my own
I’m alone with a ghost
All alone with a fear that is not my own
Make a deal with a ghost
Take him home let him have a place of his own
Clouds
Clouds and tombstones
Are all that remain of my ancestor’s homes
Clouds
Clouds and dirty stones
Are the only signs
Of my family's home
2 - How to talk to a stone
When all that's left are the words obscured by moss
What to say to the stone
When it tries to explain the years of loss
Say hello to a stone
The only proof of a life and a nearby home
Making friends with a stone
Rays of light shining through after years alone
Clouds
Clouds and Tombstones
Are all that remain of my ancestors home
Clouds
Clouds and dirty stones
Are the only signs of my family’s home
The sky was grey that day
When the soldiers came
And took my family away
I was hiding under the bed
I could not hear what they said
I was left there all alone
And a neighbor came
And hid me in her home
I was dreaming of a place
Far away
Take a walk with a ghost
To a beach where his children all ran free
Have a talk with a ghost
In the land he would never live to see
Make a deal with a ghost
That you’ll move on from the things you did not see
Try to heal with a ghost
Live the life that he did not live to see
Clouds
Clouds and Tombstones
Are all that remain of my ancestors home
Clouds
Clousds and dirty stones
Are the only signs of my family’s home
Say hello to a ghost
Say hello to a ghost
Say hello to a ghost
Say hello to a ghost
