I have been writing songs and fiddlin' with the guitar for years and years but only decided to put them together since my divorce. Now I am playing catch-up, revisiting these old (and some new) lyrics or melodies and finally bringing them together. I have hundreds of melodies and lyrics...and now as I match them up and put them out there I slowly realize that this is what I should have been doing all along, before life got in the way. Not looking at becoming a star but would like to write and record and perhaps market this vast collection of "music" I have in and around me and offer it to the world. Thanks for the listen.

Lyrics
Betrayed V1 For 13 years I was a happy child by the summer that would change the birds and the bees went a little wild now I'm a little strange (bridge) my innocence lost in the wink of an eye memory gone by the dawn of a new sky everything was different, I didn't know why I never was the same (Chorus) i was.. betrayed (I was only a child) betrayed (now Im running wild) betrayed, (my soul defiled) look at the mess you made I was Betrayed repeat V2 for 25 years I was a bitter man It drove you far away there's so much you don't understand I was too ashamed to say... (bridge) ...why.. everything left in the blink of an eye tears were all gone there's no more to cry hate all around me and love on the sly didn't have to be this way.. i was.. betrayed (left all alone) betrayed (no one home) betrayed (my soul is gone) look at the mess you made I was Betrayed repeat V3 now old and alone still hanging on time now my enemy love is a fleeting, deleting thought don't get too close to me (bridge) you'll see love turns to horror in the blink of an eye joy into sorrow so keep walking by this smile on my face is just a disguise don't under-estimate....... someone.... betrayed (I was only a child) betrayed (now Im running wild) betrayed, (my soul defiled) look at the mess you made I was Betrayed repeat
