Into The River
Words by Jack McTamney

Circumstance and I must dance
Into the river
Destiny is thrown with chance
Into the river

Cold as ice still I burn
Into the river
All I crave all I learn
Into the river

And the river sings
It's the song that brings me here
And the river dances
And it's trance alays my fear

Feel the urge to submerge
Into the river
Pain and sadness will be purged
Into the river

And the river flows
On it goes eternally
And the river sways
On it's way into the sea

As a glimpse becomes a kiss
I've been waiting just for this
And it's bliss to be inside

And beneath the ebb and flow
It's the art of letting go
That makes me feel so alive

And the river swells
Tells me to give up control
And the river knows
For the river is my soul

Surrendering drift on down
Into the river
Breathing in—wait to drown
Into the river

February's Child
Words by Jack McTamney


Silent snow secret snow
Is melting in my room
But I'm still alive

The indoor shag begins to grow
The floral wall's in bloom
Now you've arrived

Chorus:
You're the reason that I live
There is nothing I can give
February's child
You're the one who holds the key
You are everything to me
February's child

Starry night crescent moon
Reflect the golden street
when you appear

March April May and June
Surrender at your feet
With grateful tears

Chorus:
You're the reason that I live
There is nothing I can give
February's child
You're the one who holds the key
You are everything to me

You are beautiful to me
And to all with eyes to see
I wish it could be
Forever February

Lonely heart empty glass
The water turns to wine
An ocean with no shore

I kiss the ground where you pass
You say that you are mine
But it's I who am yours

Chorus:
You're the reason that  I live
There is nothing I can give
February's child
You're the one who holds the key
You are everything to me
February's child...
