Daddy
Robbie Currie © 1986

The family album is always open,
And he stares at your pictures inside,
He wishes for all the good times,
Before leaving had crossed your mind...

The night time finds him sleeping,
His only peace since you've been gone,
But morning awakes, the same question each day,
Daddy, when's momma coming home...

I can't stand the pain I see in him,
His broken heart just breaks me in two,
We're fighting the pain since you've gone away,
Yes darling, we're sure missing you,
I still try to face, the choice God made,
On the date that's carved on your stone,
But what must I say when he asks me today,
Daddy, when's momma coming home...

I Am He
Robbie Currie © 2000

Your beauty is beyond words,
And your kindness is heaven sent,
I am very rich for I have found,
The jewel at the rainbow’s end…

Many say it’s my good luck,
But blessed I am, for you see,
A treasure like you is not by chance,
You were sent by God to me…

From time to time, brag I must,
For you, I can’t help but flaunt,
Don’t boast man, you must hold back,
Perhaps I could, but I won’t…

I jump with joy, you chose me,
And there are men far much better,
But I am he that you have pledged,
To Love forever, and ever, and ever.

Silent I Love You
Robbie Currie © 1985

His thoughts were pure and his lips were silent,
Though he was a magician with words,
But his magic was heard through his eyes,
With a voice as warm as no ear has ever heard...

His heart was a prison, his feelings in shackles,
That he had a locked away for many years,
But his pain was unchained, and seen in his eyes,
As they slowly filled with tears...

She's the queen of his kingdom of dreams,
Since childhood from this throne she's reigned,
But there will be no fairytale happy ending,
Just a curse - a robe of sorrow and pain...

Their two hearts borne moments of joy,
From a wedlock they've never known,
But her journey is their judge, their divorced by time,
And she's leaving him empty and all alone...

With a childlike gaze and her final breath,
She grasped his hand to help see him through,
One last exchange of their unspoken vows,
Goodbye, and their silent "I Love You."

One year older, you become today,
But your birth is not all,
We celebrate this birthday,
This is the time you’re honored by friends,
But today seems more special,
Than other birthdays have been,
Everyone needs the kindness you share,
But the world’s a big place,
You can’t be everywhere,
We’re so excited you’re eating cake for two,
Because this world needs more people,
Just like you.

Where is your love,
What loyalty bends your knee,
Why is there passion,
But only yourself is pleased…

Where is your sight,
What fantasies fix your gaze,
Why does your blindness,
Lead only yourself astray…

Where is your sound,
What apathy shields your ear,
Why is there deafness,
But yourself you choose to hear…

Where is your touch,
What surety soothes your feel,
Why is there numbness,
Where you have affixed your seal…

Where is your mind,
What corruption seeds your brain,
Why is there wisdom,
But for yourself there’s no shame…

Where is your self,
What wickedness steals your soul,
Why is there pardon,
For your transgressions not told…

Where is your love,
What loyalty bends your knee,
Why does your passion,
Comfort no one except thee?
