About my Book

#or Miracles

This book, of words that needs to be heard by someone other that me. So why not take a look at my funky little book and set your spirit free. You may be quite surprised when you read with your eyes, everything that came from me.

Some extracts form ‘365 Days of Lyrics by Andy Leach ‘The Composers Friend’
 

FATHER O’MARLEY

Eating his cornflakes, drenched in custard

Taking his tea with a hint of mustard

Bathing in a bath filled with honey

You should see him, it’s so funny

 

Trying to fix a hole in a cloud

He can sing, without a sound

(He was walking) But didn’t move

(He was talking) Yeah, stuck in a groove

 

 

FEEL LOVE

It starts from the inside out

Stripping down the walls of doubt

It drives all your senses insane

As is plays inside your brain

My dreams won’t let me sleep

My heart’s fallen in too deep

My mind just can’t believe

The words in which I speak

Oh, I feel love

 

 

HELPLESS

Took time to read the letters that you wrote

Made a melody from the words that you spoke

I took your lost and lonely heart

Shadowed it with the moon from the dark

 

Took a mixed emotion and covered it with love

Caught a falling star that fell from above

Rode upon the rainbow, found you a pot of gold

Like a fairytale, I believe your heart was sold

 

 

LIFE ON EARTH

CHORUS

I’m living the life on earth

All that I see in my mind

I’m living for all its worth

Till the end of my time

Some see happiness, others a curse

I’ll make the best of what I find

I’m just serving my life on earth

 

 

GOT YOU ON MY MIND

Oh, got you, got you, got you, got you on my mind

Got you, got you, got you, got you on my mind, wow, wow, wow, wow

 

Should have know a little better than to take a ride with you

You were one of a different kind, I was besotted, oh

Never knew anything quite like this

What could come of a little smile?

It all started with that simple kiss, then somehow, we just qualified

 

I want you, I want you, I want you, from your head down to your toes

I need you, I need you, I need you, you, blossom like the rose

 

 

GHOST TRAIN

CHORUS

You’re on that ghost train

To that place with no name

Visions of no one

Where everyone’s the same

So, ride the ghost train

To that place with no past

Who knows how long forever will last

 

 

INTO THE RISING SUN

CHORUS

Look into the rising sun

As wise men say tomorrows never come

As the new day starts to unwind

The dreams in your night, are leaving your mind

Thoughts of yesterday now, left far behind

When the night is over and done

Look into the rising sun

 

 

MORE THAN TEMPTATION

Five minutes, that’s all it took

And baby, I was on my way

One look, I was hooked

What else can I say?

There’s just something about you

That I can’t live without

Don’t you ever think, I’m leaving

Baby, wash away the doubt

Closer than close I feel

My heart waits for you to steal

Yeah, yeah, yeah

 

 

MONEY

So worried about who you are

You can’t see what you’ve become

It’s not enough to end in second place

You’ve always gotta be that number one

You’re spending money, yeah, just like time

There’s, people on the street

Without food to eat, still

We all spend money like a crime, yeah

 

 

SHE’LL LOVE YOU

When you’re drowning in sorrow

It seems such a shame

When she left without reason

You wonder will you see her again

There’s no use in crying

What is done, has been done

There’s no use denying

Two hearts still beat as one

 

 

OUT OF MY MIND

Everything that I have got

Is what I just don’t need

I had a taste for the other

But only just a little, to tease

 

Show me the view from the outside

I’m finding it hard to breathe

I’m climbing the walls on the inside

Living on the wings of a dream

 

 

WILD AS THE BREEZE

I’m an ordinary guy, that’s so complicated

I could have faith, if I’d only waited

All my world, seems clouded with confusion

My mind’s worn out, with too much illusion

I’m feeling strange, like a child at birth

Tell me, what the dream is really worth

 

I’ve travelled this life, with one big stride

Found broken hearts, that hide with pride

Found that place where old memories sleep

Down the road where nightmares creep

Oh, what a journey, nothing can compare

How I wish that you had been there
