Lilly 03:24
You are like The Lilies of the morning So beautiful and free I want to wrap you in my arms You mean the world to me And I think of you always I think of you all days The first thought I have In my waking head The last thought I have Before I go to bed And you are my wildflowers in the sun We’re so glad you’ve come along We’re so glad you’re here This is your song You are my Lily of the morning So beautiful and free I wanna wrap you in my arms You mean the world to me Wrap you in my arms For Eternity Wrap you in my arms For the world to see

Ruby 18 03:31
Always makes me think of Ruby I heard she up and died at 30 In my mind she’s always 18 Drivn’ L.A. freeways Naked Top down Scream’n “HEY KID” 67 Mustang, Dynasty Green Long Gone Not Forgotten Long Gone Not Forgotten Long Gone Not Forgotten 67 Mustang Dynasty Green Hats and Scarfs, Dark Sunglasses Nobody knew her In her disguises But when she showed Man It was a scene Buffalo Springfield, Radio High Mr Soul, Expecting to FLy And when she sang It was Everything Long Gone Not Forgotten Long Gone Not Forgotten Long Gone Not Forgotten 67 Mustang Dynasty Green

Saturdaze 06:10
Coming out of Vegas Head full of Saturdaze Wondering how long I could live outside the maze Laying rubber down Movn fast and lean Chasing the last ride Of the legend James Dean And you can’t go back You can’t go around it You must go On and On On and on On and on On and on In thinking of the woman Who shared with me three names Getting Lost again In the dream of never returning LA by nightfall Seems like a crime to me Saffron Sands For all that I can see And you can’t go back Can’t go around it You must go On and On On and on On and on On and on Can’t go back Can’t go around it You must go On and On And you can’t go back Can’t go around it You must go On and On On and on On and on On and on Westward Venus Be my guide now I seek your grace On my vessels bow And bless this journey To your loving waves It is your embrace That I crave Can’t go back Can’t go around it You must go On and On On and on On and on On and on On and on On and on On and on On and on On and on On and on

Good morning Love I was just dreaming of you Stay in bed Love I’ll make coffee for two Wait for me Love I’m ready for you It’s gonna be a rainy afternoon And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here With you And all My thoughts Are here

Bonita 02:49
Some say Some who wander May not be lost That the heart is the compass Time is the cost But how far should one go Does anyone Get to know? It feels like beyond No return I’ve stood and I’ve stared At the vanishing Stars I’ve counted rare Ruby’s on Mars But nothing compares With the sun in your eyes Mi Bonita Mi Amor Mi Siempre On this side of forever Lives a beautiful dream And I hope you know to me That you mean everything The sun in your eyes The rest of our lives Mi Bonita Mi Amor Mi Siempre The sun in your eyes The rest of our lives Mi Bonita Mi Amor Mi Siempre

Well, she must have been a dancer In some other part of life She moves with the music And she always finds the light Up on her toes She twirls all around The Belle of the Ball She don’t ever come down Pretty as you please She spins right by me Hair in the air Quite the site to see Every note of every song Sends her over the moon A parade on Lover’s Lane With Apple blossom bloom All alone in a crowd Chandelier hanging high Connects with her heart And they Illuminate the sky Well, she must have been a dancer In some other life She moves with the music She always finds the light

Always Jenny 05:39
She’s always Jenny Jenny is always stoned She’s out there on the mile by mile Crawln’ on the back bone Jenny says family’s for people Who can not be alone Have you seen Jenny Oh where did Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where did Jenny go Jenny’s on a dark horse Riding all alone She’s surviving minute by minute Living tooth to bone Only feels welcome In a town where she’s unknown Have you seen Jenny Where does Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where does Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where does Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where does Jenny go Jenny says life goes slow Until it goes too fast Can’t keep up with anything Nothing seems to last Jenny says she feels nothing And nothing feels good Jenny says she feels Nothing And nothing feels good Have you seen Jenny Oh where did Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where did Jenny go Have you seen Jenny Oh where did Jenny go

You come late and you come home early You come on big when you’re feeling small You come home straight and you come home curly Sometimes you don’t come home at all What in the world has come over you What in heaven's name have you done You’ve broken the speed of the sound of loneliness You’re out there running just to be on the run I got a heart that burns with a fever And I got a worried and a jealous mind How can a love that will last forever Get left so far behind What in the world has come over you What in heaven's name have you done You’ve broken the speed of the sound of loneliness You’re out there running just to be on the run It’s a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow That’s crossed the evil line today How can you ask about tomorrow When we ain’t got one word to say So what in the world’s come over you What in heaven's name have you done You’ve broken the speed of the sound of loneliness You’re out there running just to be on the run You’re out there running just to be on the run You’re out there running just to be on the run

about

It's very much my pleasure to introduce this collection of songs and ideas that I've worked on for 10 years or more. I think it represents where I've been and where I'm going, while illustrating where I am now. It is meant to be an immersive experience with connections and clues to a never ending intersecting sphere of story lines as they have passed through my existence. I'm humbly proud of what we've done and thankful to be able to share it with you.

Be well,
John

about

John L keck Kansas City, Missouri

I write from personal experience on the whole, and even when I’m telling a tale, its grounded in something that's happened to me... a sliver of time in the crazy ride that has been my life. Hopefully that comes through honestly .I write about everything, often about love or emotions surrounding relationships, those seem to be the songs that people respond to the most. ... more
