Yup, love songs.
I Blame You
Song Info
Written with my wife Ausra in mind. She sees right thru me and I’m thankful for it every day. I’m a very lucky man. Originally written on the piano with an easy but cool A minor / G riff. Love songs are cool.
Lyrics
I blame you for knowin’
Everything I’m thinkin’
You called me just to say
The words I wanted to say
Now that you’re here with me
Life keeps getting better!
I blame you
For making me smile this way
I blame you
For showing love in every way
I blame you
For seein’ right through me
I blame you
For showin’ me the way
You never miss a beat
When my thoughts go astray
You stay and tease me softly
And chase my clouds away
Now that you’re here with me
Life keeps getting better!
I blame you
For making me smile this way
I blame you
For showing love in every way
I blame you
For seein’ right through me
I blame you
For showin’ me the way
I blame you for laughin’
When I feel like I could fall
You lift me up so high
And I can’t help but love it all
Now that you’re here with me
Life keeps getting better!
I blame you
For making me smile this way
I blame you
For showing love in every way
I blame you
For seein’ right through me
I blame you
For showin’ me the way
Yeah, I blame you
Can’t You See?
Song Info
I think this is a kinda catchy hook. The song was inspired by my step daughter who at the time was a teenager and always hiding from us parents thinking we didn’t notice.
Lyrics
Sometimes you want
someone to show you the way
Sometimes you know
exactly what you want to say
When tomorrow means
as much as it does today
All I want to know is… if there’s another way.
Can’t You See
I want… I need…Love!
Why not..can’t I…
No matter what I say…Love!
You can’t see me…
I am… I am…
I’m not sure what Can’t You See?
All I want is… Love!
Can’t You See… Why Can’t You See me?
Sometimes I want to say…
Something perfect because, hey!
You think you know the way…
But my place is on the way…
To my place…the other way…
To my place…now Can’t You See
I want… I need…Love!
Why not..can’t I…
No matter what I say…Love!
You can’t see me…
I am… I am…
I’m not sure what Can’t You See?
All I want is… Love!
Can’t You See… Why Can’t You See me?
Can’t You See me… Love!
Oh what you’ve done to me
Why Can’t You See? Love!
and what you’ve done to me
Can’t You See … Love!
Can’t You See me… Love!
Oh what you’ve done to me
Why Can’t You See? Love!
and what you’ve done to me
Can’t You See … Love!
The One That I Am
Song Info
“The One That I Am” is a love song about the woman who somehow met me years ago, ignored all the obvious warning signs, and decided to keep me anyway. I still consider that one of life’s greatest mysteries and very grateful for her wisdom and inspiration.
This one’s about finding your one and only, the one who knows all your quirks, rolls their eyes at your jokes, and still chooses to spend their life with you. I wrapped it in some classic rock guitars and a little vintage nostalgia because some things really do get better with age… unlike my lower back.

Thanks for listening!
Lyrics
[VERSE]
The days that you spend with me
The one that I am
When I look in those big brown eyes
You know who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
All we need to do is say
I love you
[CHORUS]
Baby, I love you, [Call and Response: Oh yeah…}
My love, I love you, [Call and Response: Yes I do…}
The one that I am
[VERSE]
Sometimes I wonder how
The one that I am
Is the one that you love and how
You know who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
All we need to do is say
I love you
[BRIDGE]
Time keeps moving on
We keep rollin on…too
Our love grows stronger
A bond to hold on…to
The one that I am
Is the one that loves you!
[Pre-Chorus]
All we need to do is say
I love you
[CHORUS]
Baby, I love you
My love, I love you
The one that I am
The one that I am (Who needs you?)
The one that I am (I do!)
Oh yeah!!! The one that I am
Pretty Lady
Song Info
I really like this tune and I’m using some strange chord combinations in the original recording. The AI interpreted it farily well. I was imagining a single guy walking the streets where the action is when I wrote this.
Lyrics
Pretty lady looking so fine (so fine)
Pretty lady don’t pass me by (don’t pass me by)
Pretty lady wish you were mine (Aaa so fine)
Pretty lady don’t pass me by
When I saw your face… (wow)… for the first time
I wanted a piece… (a piece)
A piece of your mind… (you make me so high)
Pretty lady looking so fine (so fine)
Pretty lady don’t pass me by (don’t pass me by)
Pretty lady wish you were mine (Aaa so fine)
Pretty lady don’t pass me by
When I saw your face… (wow) for the first time
I wanted a piece… (a piece)
A piece of your mind… (you make me so high)
When I saw your face… (wow)
for the first time
I wanted a piece… (a piece)
A piece of your mind… (you make me so high)
Pretty lady…(looking so fine)
Pretty lady…(you make me so high)
Pretty lady…(wish you were mine)
Pretty lady…(don’t pass me by)
don’t pass me by (wish you were mine)
don’t pass me by (don’t pass me by)
I just wanted to say hi
Nice to Know
Song Info
“Nice To Know” is a short, sweet song about having someone in your life who is always there when you need them most. Sometimes that’s a best friend. Sometimes it’s your soulmate. Either way… it’s nice to know they’re around when you’re about to do something spectacularly dumb.
I actually wrote this song in about 10 minutes while taking the trash cans down our long driveway. Apparently inspiration strikes when you’re wearing flip-flops and dragging garbage cans.
The vocals are my voice. Well… my voice if it actually hit every note I was aiming for.
The video is a fun Pixar-style adventure starring an animated version of me doing what I apparently do best. Fortunately, my wife is always there to save me from myself… whether I’m fumbling with the groceries, burning dinner, dropping everything I touch, or pretending that cleaning is someone else’s problem.
If the song made you smile, I’d appreciate it if you’d like the video, leave a comment, and subscribe to you YouTube channel here.

It helps more people discover my original music, and gives me another excuse to take the trash cans out when I need songwriting inspiration.
Lyrics
It’s nice to know
That you are with me
It’s nice to know
That you were there
And all the time you’re thinking of me
It’s nice to know that you still care
It’s nice to know when the chips are down
It’s nice to know…you’re always around
And now you know when you see me
Count on me…I’ll be around
It’s nice to know
That you are with me
It’s nice to know
You were there
And all the time you’re thinking of me
It’s nice to know that you still care
The Secret
Song Info
This is the AI version that I tried to keep as true to the original as possible.
A song I wrote after watching the movie named The Secret. But, it has nothing to do with the movie.
Lyrics
I took a look at my life tonight
Stripped away all those dirty ol’ lies
Then I saw the sunshine in your eyes
I found the secret tonight
I was walkin down the street tonight
Wonderin what I’m gonna do with my life
Then the phone rings and I feel your smile
I saw the secret tonight
Love!
Your kind words of honesty
Renews my faith in you n me
If only you could see (inside)
Inside what you do to me
Never thought someone so young could see
Right thru to the soul of me
In the end, I don’t know anything…But I…
I found the secret tonight
The angels smile when they hear you sing
I don’t know what tomorrow may bring
Mona Lisa don’t have anything… on you
I saw the secret tonight
I found the secret tonight
I saw the secret tonight
I found the secret tonight
I saw the secret tonight
Love!
I said Love!
Love!
The secret is Love!
I Don’t Know Why
Song Info
Not sure what I was thinking when I wrote this. The lyrics were an excuse to play some blues.
Lyrics
Raindrops fall the wind may blow
I don’t know why
I’ll always be here with you
I don’t know why
Understand that I can sometimes
Break the golden rule
Then I find myself and realize
I’ve been such a fool
To think that you would come back
After you said we were thru
I gotta try just one more time
It’s all I can do
Raindrops fall the wind may blow
I don’t know why
I’ll always be here with you
I don’t know why
Taking my time drinking my wine
I’m losing my mind
But the voice inside my head
It’s working overtime
One more chance is all I ask of you
One last time
I have no place left to go
Please give me another try
Raindrops fall the wind may blow
I don’t know why
I’ll always be here with you
You promised me that you’d be true
And I don’t know why
I’ll always be here with you
I don’t know why
