Good Memories CD Lyrics
HEY THERE GOOD MEMORY
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Hey there good memory you've been hanging around a while
Hey there good memory you and me've put on some miles
Hey there good memory you always seem to make me smile
Verse 2
Hey there good memory you always know just what to do
Hey there good memory when times are tough you see me through
Hey there good memory did you know I need you
Verse 3
Gonna pack you in my mental suitcase
Gonna carry you around with me
No one's gonna take you from me
You're my own good memory
Verse 4
Had to forget a lot of bad ones
But the forgettin' is all through
Now the only ones that I have left
Are good memories like you
Verse 5
Hey there good memory you never leave me far behind
Hey there good memory from the back to the front of my mind
Hey there good memory of days when times were much more kind
Verse 6
Hey there good memory appreciate you stoppin' by
Hey there good memory sometimes I laugh sometimes I cry
Hey there good memory don't ever say goodbye
Verse 7
Hey there good memory did you know I need you
Hey there good memory don't ever say goodbye
Did you know I love you
BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE
by Ross Kennedy
CHORUS
Beautiful sunrise colourful way
Beautiful sunrise thanks for startin' my day
Beautiful sunrise make your way 'cross the sky
Beautiful sunrise you're up so am I
Verse 1
You're last night's hope for dawn
You're candy to my eyes
Soon you'll climb even higher
As you move 'cross the sky
Verse 2
Create an illusion
And when will fools like us learn
You don't fly 'cross the sky
But it's our world that turns
CHORUS
Beautiful sunrise colourful way
Beautiful sunrise thanks for startin' my day
Beautiful sunrise make your way 'cross the sky
Beautiful sunrise you're up so am I
Beautiful sunrise
WITHOUT YOU GIRL
Written and sung by Charles Kennedy
Verse 1
You took my heart so don't you dare touch my guitar
You took my plans and my dreams
And everything else that could be seen
But that's okay I'm all right
Because I know that you're not by my side
CHORUS
You can't take the smile from my face
My happiness is my saving grace
And I'm gonna find my place in this world
And I'm doin' it without you girl
Verse 2
Alone is where I'm gonna stay
I don't need no one to help me out today
I keep dreamin' that you're back in my heart
But that sounds like a nightmare so you just stay where you are
CHORUS
You can't take the smile from my face
My sanity is my saving grace
And I'm gonna find my place in this world
And I'm doin' it without you girl
CHORUS
Yeah that's okay I'm all right
'Cause I've got a full case of Bud Light
You can't take the smile from my face
My happiness is my saving grace
And I'm gonna find my place in this world
And I'm doing it without you girl
Without you girl
YOUR FRIEND
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Seems we met so very innocently
At the start of that fall day
I said it's funny how our paths crossed
She said no I would have met you anyway
CHORUS
I said can I always be your friend
Until beyond the very end
And even though we can't be lovers
I still wanna be your friend
Verse 2
Time went by and we grew closer
Our souls connected every day
Though I pretended not to notice
Thoughts of her wouldn't go away
CHORUS
She said I'll always be your friend
Until beyond the very end
Even though I wish I was your lover
I will always be your friend
Verse 3
Time went by it goes so quickly
Our love wouldn't go away
Sure enough we became lovers
At the end of that spring day
CHORUS
I said can I still always be your friend
Until beyond the very end
And even though now we are lovers
I still wanna be your friend
Verse 4
She said that from the very first time
That I saw you I just knew
Something in my soul just told me
That I'd spend my life with you
CHORUS
She said I'll always be your friend
Until beyond the very end
And even though now we are lovers
I will always be your friend
She said I'll always be your friend
HEY TOM
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
Hey Tom you're the true north strong and free
You make me proud to be Canadian
You made me love my own country
You filled my heart with pride and laughter
When you sang of my country
Of the people and the places
That mean so much to me
I didn't always know the reason
But now I clearly see
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
Verse 2
From St. John's to Vancouver and all places in between
Like Charlottetown and Tilsonburg and Sioux Ste. Marie
Quebec the Prairies Nova Scotia Saturday night in Sudbury
From Long Gone to the Yukon and old New Brunswick too
About Marbo and Reggie from Newfoundland
And the Gumboot Clogeroo
I didn't always know the reason but now I clearly see
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
Verse 3
You never cared if you ever got to the music hall of fame
You wrote songs about my country like The Good Old Hockey Game
I didn't always know the reason but now I clearly see
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
Verse 4
Somewhere you're still singin' makin' 'em laugh and makin' 'em cry
Yeah somewhere you're still singin' big stompin' board up in the sky
I didn't always know the reason now this Canadian clearly sees
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
And just like Luke with his old guitar this song ain't over yet
Still one more
Hey Tom thanks for all you've given me
Hey Tom you're the true north strong and free
ON THIS SANDBAR
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Always thought that this would happen underneath the moon
Not on this ocean sandbar in the afternoon
Still we're swaying with the breeze
Our dreams are floatin' floatin'
Like two waves in love we're rollin' with the ocean
Verse 2
Thought I'd be slow dancin' singin' you romantic tunes
Not knee deep on this sandbar water's cold in June
Still we're swayin' with the breeze
Feel this emotion motion on this sandbar where we're rollin' with the ocean
Verse 3
We're likin' this a lot this sandbar just got hot
Whoa swayin' with the breeze our dreams are floatin' floatin'
On this sandbar we're just rollin' with the ocean
Verse 4
Always thought that this would happen underneath the stars
But it's daylight on this sandbar we can't go too far
Still we're swaying with the breeze
Feel this emotion motion
On this sandbar we're just rollin' with the ocean
Verse 5
On this sandbar just me and you
We can't go as far as we want to
Still we're swayin' with the breeze
Our dreams are floatin' floatin'
Like two waves in love we're rollin' with the ocean
On this sandbar we're just rollin' with the ocean
SEEMS TO FEEL RIGHT
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Both came from different worlds so to speak
So it's kind of weird we would even meet
More we got together more we realized we're the same
Still one never knows in love's crazy game
CHORUS
The fire is cracklin' it's a quiet winter's night
And somethin' about us just seems to feel right
Can't put my finger on it try as I might
Somethin' about us just seems to feel right
Verse 2
Keepin' it to myself not tellin' my friends
Don't want to jinx us bring it to an end
Just wanna have some fun keep an open mind
But could this be the one I've been hopin' to find
CHORUS
The fire's still cracklin' it's a quiet winter's night
And something about us just seems to feel right
Verse 3
Our emotions sometimes we hide and refrain
We put up walls so we don't hurt again
I think long long ago we wrote our stories down
Now we're watchin' as walls come tumblin' down
CHORUS
The fire's still cracklin' it's a quiet winter's night
And something about us just seems to feel right
Yeah something about us just seems to feel right
Just seems to feel right
HEARTS LIVE ON
Written and Sung by Charles Kennedy
Verse 1
When I was just a kid my Grand Daddies died
I didn't know what death meant but I still cried
And now that I'm grown up I do believe
That there's something out there that we can't see
Verse 2
They were husbands they were fathers and they were good friends
They were fighters and soldiers and proud to be men
But now they're gone and I know that
Their hearts live on
Verse 3
I'll never forget what happened that day
A friend of mine took his last breath and he passed away
And it took a while for it to sink in
And now thinking back it's the saddest I've been
Verse 4
We ran around and we played games
And were the same age and had the same name
But now he's gone and I know that
His heart lives on
Verse 5
Now there will come a day that I'm not here
And it's gonna happen that's why I don't fear
Now please don't be sad when I am gone
'Cause I'm in a better place where my heart lives on
My heart lives on
NORTHERN ONTARIO
by Ross Kennedy
CHORUS
Northern Ontario you stretch on for as far as eye can see
Northern Ontario I can feel you breathin'
What's that you're tryin' to tell me
What's that you're tryin' to tell me
Verse 1
Endless lakes and rivers flow
And your forests full of trees
Wildlife there still freely roams
In your vast ecology
Verse 2
Supply us with your good clean water
And your fresh clean air to breathe
Maybe that's what you're tryin' to tell me
Verse 3
Love to canoe and fish your waters
Up there in cottage country
Hardy people work your mines and trees
Canada's the land of the strong and free
Verse 4
Sometimes your nature heals my spirit
I think more environmentally
Could that be what your tryin' to tell me
CHORUS
Northern Ontario you stretch on for as far as eye can see
Northern Ontario I can feel you breathin'
What's that you're tryin' to tell me
What's that you're tryin' to tell me
JUST MIGHT FIND YOUR SOUL
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Hey there native Islanders out there givin' this world a try
Good to see you back again on my shores of PEI
You left my green pastures you had to find greener pastures
You didn't wanna go but the work was low
Now I'll try to fulfill my role
Good to have you back again I'm gonna give you back your soul
CHORUS
And you wouldn't be the first ones to leave their daily toil
And feel a little different after walking on my soil
And in this big old world I think
I just might know I just might know my role
Walk my beaches breathe my air you just might find your soul
I've been waitin' here for ya to give you back your soul
Verse 2
Hey there stranger from far away out there givin' this world a try
Glad you came to see me on my shores of PEI
You've been chasing your green pastures
You gotta do what you gotta do
Glad you came to see me I'm gonna give your soul to you
CHORUS
And you wouldn't be the first ones to leave their daily toil
And feel a little different after walking on my soil
And in this big old world I think
I just might know I just might know my role
Walk my beaches breathe my air you just might find your soul
So come see me in the summertime I'll try to fulfill my role
Yeah come see me in the summer time you just might find your soul
You just might find your soul
You just might find your soul
NOW AND THEN
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
We were kindred souls after our high school years
Your parents broke us up we shed a lot of tears
Try as I might I couldn't make it with you
They said I was no good wrong religion too
Broke my heart didn't know what to do
I couldn't visualize my life without you
Verse 2
Still every now and then I think of you
Every now and then what are you up to
We'd be together but we weren't 'sposed to
Still every now and then I think of you
Verse 3
Got back together again two years later one night
I put the run to your boyfriend he wasn't treatin' you right
By now your parents loved me they thought I was a gem
They said we sure are glad she's back with you again
We stayed together long enough for the both of us to see
That maybe her and I weren't meant to be
Verse 4
Well I heard you got married and I did the same
I prayed you'd do well at life's tough game
My sister said when my divorce came
That I should look up my kindred soul again
Verse 5
She said you never know she might be split too
But honestly Honey I wouldn't want that for you
The more I think about it the more I see
That short relationship was meant to be
We were together we were meant to be
And the relationship was good for her and me
Verse 6
Still every now and then I think of you
And all I really know is this song's for you
Still every now and then I think of you
And all I really know is this song's for you
THE LUCKY ONE
by Ross Kennedy
Verse 1
Met you on that winter's day
Heard good things that the people say
They said my son had his eye on you
What the people said proved to be true
CHORUS
Now I'm the lucky one
I'm the lucky one
You are the one who's perfect for my son
Still I'm the lucky one whoa oh oh I'm the lucky one
Verse 2
And years will come and years will go
Relationships will bloom and grow
It's no small thing what you mean to me
And welcome to my family
Verse 3
Now I see just what he saw
Now you're my daughter-in-law
Life's not about status quo
Life's about who you get to know
CHORUS
That's why I'm the lucky one
I'm the lucky one
Whoa oh oh I'm the lucky one
Verse 4
Now I see just what he saw
Now you're my daughter-in-law
Makes me the lucky one whoa oh oh
