Finally Found What I'm Looking For 01:48

I finally found what I’m looking for Lay down fast and beg for more I finally found what I’m looking for Or maybe it found me I finally know what it means to be Barking up the wrong damn tree I finally know what it means to be Running with blood on my hands Me I found it in me Oh I found it in Myself I finally see what you’re showing me Everything is meant to be I finally see what you’re showing me I opened up my eyes Me I found it in me Oh I found it in Myself Maybe it’s just me But everything is getting a little bit harder Maybe it’s just me Maybe it’s just you But I’m finding perfection In everything you do Oh It can’t be too late No I’m finding out My fate

It's Almost Time 02:44
lyrics

Tonight the stars explode Everything that once was mine is yours Needles only break the skin Think of me But only if you win Everything is changing This whole world is spinning ‘round It’s almost time It’s almost time Visions of you on the wall You are real but I am not at all Dreaming of a perfect place Inside you and looking through your face Everything is changing This whole world is spinning ‘round It’s almost time It’s almost time It’s over but it’s classic now Everything comes back to you somehow Tell the birds to keep their space I’m still stumbling ‘round this lonesome place

I always knew That I Would end up at your door I always knew That you Would be the one for me I always thought Your smile Could melt me in my skin I always knew Your eyes Were beautiful You were always here You were always here You had me From the first time I looked in your eyes You had me From the first time I looked in your eyes When you’re not here I cry I feel so all alone I promise you To be Everything and more Do anything For you You are an angel And you deserve To be Treated like one You were always here You were always here You had me From the first time I looked in your eyes You had me From the first time I looked in your eyes I always knew That I Would end up at your door I always knew That you Would be the one for me I always thought Your smile Could melt me in my skin I always knew Your eyes Were beautiful

I’m so in love And you’re to blame You called my name On Lover’s Lane The moon above us May wax and wane You called my name On Lover’s Lane All of my life babe I looked for you Someone to love me Someone that’s true I’ve had enough of Childish games Call my name On Lover’s Lane But for the sky babe We are alone Let’s start a new life Let’s build a home I’ve had enough of Childish games Call my name On Lover’s Lane You called my name On Lover’s Lane You called my name On Lover’s Lane

Red River 02:42
lyrics

Down by Red River The thieves are all drinking their wine While the eagles are flying away As fast as they can Only the richest Can see how the peasants will fare And I stand alone on the banks And silently cry Red River can you hear me Your blood is flowing through my soul Red River do you fear me You know I see what you don’t show Down by Red River The tears are beginning to fall And the river is rising Though nobody really could care Oh they’re so guilty Living their lives for the green The river is rising And history’s washing away Red River can you hear me Your blood is flowing through my soul Red River do you fear me You know I see what you don’t show Red River can you hear me Your blood is flowing through my soul Red River do you fear me You know I see what you don’t show

My friend My friend Thank you For everything you do You carried me through My darkest times When everyone left You were still right here And I thank you From the bottom of my heart My friend My friend You are Like a battle scar That stayed with me Through the war When darkness falls I can still see the light Shining at me from above My friend My friend Thank you For just being you And never trying to be Somebody else As the years pass And together we grow old I know we’ll stand the test of time I know what we’ve got will never die

In a flash of light You took me under A split second mistake A tragic blunder It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ thunder It’s an honest To a dishonest question A friend that whispers Only if you let him It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ thunder Take all the credit Steal the glory That’s what it’s all about you know That’s the moral of the story In a flash of light You took me under A split second mistake A tragic blunder It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ It’s rollin’ thunder

Take You Away 02:33

You! I’m gonna take you away! And lead you right into my arms Right where you belong He don’t deserve someone like you He only goes and makes you blue I have some words that I could say You! I’m gonna take you away! And lead you right into my arms Right where you belong Snow from December in your eyes The April rain is your disguise I’m here to brighten up your day You! I’m gonna take you away! And lead you right into my arms Right where you belong You know you only need to call You know you only need to call You know you only need to call my name And I’ll be there By your side You know you only need to call You know you only need to call You know you only need to call my name And I’ll be there I’ll be there I’m face to face with my own fear Reverse the roles in the mirror I turned my back on yesterday You! I’m gonna take you away! And lead you right into my arms Right where you belong Where you belong

How Long Does It Take to Get Home? 02:43

How long does it take to get home And how long must I be all alone How long will I sit With my head in my hands Trouble and worries Nobody understands Oh how long does it take to get home How many times have you cried How many times have you lied How many times have looked at yourself Silently wishing that you were someone else Oh how many times have you cried I’ve been deep inside the river And I know how you must feel You’re hungry like a wolf And you ain’t afraid to steal How long does it take to get home There’s a seed on every flower There’s a thorn on every rose There’s sadness in this world babe But that’s the way it goes How can you believe the words they say When did yesterday become today How can my own mother Turn her back upon her brother How can Georgia Brown Crack a whip without a sound How can Senor Money Take a life and think it’s funny How can Rick the Rhino Call himself a black albino How can Davey Crocket Stick a fork into the socket How can this whole scene Come directly from a dream that I had How can you believe the words they say I’ve been deep inside the river And I know how you must feel You’re hungry like a wolf And you ain’t afraid to steal How long does it take to get home How long does it take to get home And how long must I be all alone How long will I sit With my head in my hands Trouble and worries Nobody understands Oh how long does it take to get home

Joe Dickinson Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I’m Joe Dickinson.

I'm a DIY singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL.

It's not easy, balancing the external demands of work/life with the internal demands of creativity, but I'm working toward a set of sustainable internal systems that will allow me to continue to write, record, and release songs. Hopefully for the rest of my life.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen. ... more
