My Garden
She comes around Sunday
With a bouquet of flowers Picked from my garden
I breathe in her perfume
It carries her essence all through me
I start to shutter and shake
It seems I’m more awake
My soul is in a new state
Of mind
All is much brighter
The sights and sounds seem to be much more
I find I have more love
It comes out easier through me
Then something clicked like a storm
I felt myself in a fall
All became like before
I couldn’t stand it
When I’m there
I’m always happy
I just feel so alive
No more cares
They don’t come my way
I’m just glad to be alive
She comes around Sunday
With a bouquet of flowers Picked from my garden
I breathe in her perfume
It carries her essence all through me
I start to shutter and shake
It seems I’m more awake
My soul is in a new state
Of mind
She comes around Sunday
With a bouquet of flowers Picked from my garden

I’m Tired
Manny & Debbie Cortez
6/13/2018
I’m tired of all the pain
I’m tired of feeling insane
I’m tired of the people
Never taking the blame
I’m tired of being pushed
To the point of no return
I’m tired of this world
Never wanting to learn
I’m tired, I’m tired
I’m tired, I’m tired
I’m tired of everyone
That say they’re in charge
I’m tired of all there trickery
So that they can go far
I’m tired of all the smiles
Really don’t mean a thing
I’m tired of all the bull crap
That I always sing
I’m tired, I’m tired
I’m tired, I’m tired
I need a place where I can breathe
Somewhere my mind can feel the breeze
Somewhere my Soul can take to flight
Before I return to the fight
I’m tired of working More
Than that 9 to 5
I’m tired of not spending time
Keeping my dream alive
I’m tired of giving all
Getting zilch in return
I’m tired of the ridicule
Just let it all burn
I’m tired, I’m tired
I’m tired, I’m tired

I Caught You Looking at Me
I was sitting down in an open Café
Sipping down my coffee
You came in looking for a place to sit
I waved you over to me
I said come on down, Sit awhile,
Come and talk with me
Maybe then we could share
Ourselves a cup of Tea
You know that I like your style
I caught you looking at me
Come on now stay awhile
Come and join me
You know that your
At fault
I caught you looking at me
Girl you know I like your style
I caught you looking at me
I said come on down, Sit awhile,
Come and talk with me
Maybe then we could share
Ourselves a cup of Tea
You know that I like your style
I caught you looking at me

50 Means Nothing At All

50 Means Nothing At All
I’m not sure that turning 50 means much at all
I’m still leaning new things everyday
You finally got your head together, but your body has other ideas
You’ve got for sizes of clothes in your closet, three of which you’ll never wear
You realize with some irritation that your parents were mostly right
The street vendor says “Yes, Ma am”, Instead of “Gorgeous goodnight”
50 means nothing at all
50 means nothing at all
50 means nothing at all
When there’s so much more
When you pass a full-lengh mirror, you say that can’t be you
You’re still a hot lady, but only baby in the eyes of who love you
Those hot flashes that come in batches it’s just Menopause
Just think of them as short vacations or sunning at a resort
50 means nothing at all
50 means nothing at all
50 means nothing at all
When there’s so much more

You Are Beautiful

You Are Beautiful
You are the only one
To bring a smile to my face
You are my only shinning star
I can’t help myself
When I’m around you
I begin to act like a little child
Cause you are beautiful
Yes you are
Your smile out shine the living Stars
You are beautiful
Yes you are
And you will always be my rising Star
You are a caring soul
Always helping others
You’re always there if someone calls
I’m the jealous one
I want you for myself
But I know that can’t be true
Cause you are beautiful
Yes you are
Your smile out shine the living Stars
You are beautiful
Yes you are
With you my Love grows beyond the Stars
(Solo)
Cause you are beautiful
Yes you are
Your smile out shine the living Stars
You are beautiful
Yes you are
With you my Love grows beyond the Stars
You are the only one
To bring a smile to my face
You are my only shinning star
I can’t help myself
When I’m around you
I begin to act like a little child

One Last Time
Manny & Debbie Cortez
12/10/2018
I didn’t get a chance, to say good bye
The way I wanted to, the way that I should
But I know that you, would have understood
I wasn’t by your side, I didn’t say good bye
But I, wish that I could hold you one last time
Yes I Do
Yes I, wish that I could hold you again
I didn’t want to see, you go away
To a place I couldn’t reach, a place I couldn’t see
Now I just long, to have you near
To touch and see your face, to have our last embrace
I wish that I,
I could just hold you
One last time
I wish that I
Could hold you one last time

Be With Me
Be with me, I will always be there
You will see
Come and see, I have the power to change
Everything
I will guide and keep you strong
Take you away form what is norm
Find your way out from the storm
With me, you will be
When you’re with me
You will feel you’re self
Changing into a star
Peace and Love
Will start to flow within you
Start to warm up your heart (Back to the Top)
(Solo)
I will guide you and keep you strong
Take you away form what is norm
Find your way out from the storm
With me you will be
When you’re with me
You will feel you’re self
Changing into a star
Peace and Love
Will start to flow within you
Start to warm up your heart
Be with me
You will see
Be with me
And you will see

In My Bones
Manny & Debbie Cortez
12/13/2018
Well I met this girl from New Orleans
At one of my shows
She said listen I’ve got something to say
That you must really know
This ain’t no game I’m talking about
This ain’t no foolish talk
So come on now listen boy before I walk
Cause I feel it, feel it in my bones
Yes I feel it, feel it in my bones
So I started to listen to her story
And God only knows
That the things she said sounded crazy
That I felt it in my toes
I don’t know if what she said was true
I don’t care if she was right
All I know is that, it was scary
That I felt it in my bones
Solo
Can you I feel it, It’s coming down the road
Yes I feel it, feel it, feel it, in my bones
Well I met this girl from New Orleans
At one of my shows
She said listen I’ve got something to say
That you must really know
This ain’t no game I’m talking about
This ain’t no foolish talk
So come on now listen boy before I walk
Can you I feel it, It’s coming down the road
Yes I feel it, feel it, feel it, in my bones

By The Ocean
By the ocean
I feel a breeze
You and me baby
That’s all I need
By the Ocean
I’ll be
By the Ocean
You can feel the breeze
From that warmness
In the sea
You can feel it
In your knees
By the Ocean
That’s where I’ll be
By the Ocean
That’s where I want to be
By the Ocean
Just you and me
By the Ocean the
Sea creatures crawl
Day by day
Some of them just fall
By the Ocean
That’s where I want to be
By the Ocean
Just you and me
(Bridge)
By the Ocean
By the Ocean
By the Ocean
By the Ocean That’s where I want to be
By the Ocean

Secret
If I
Told you how I hurt inside
The lonely way I feel
My life is no big deal
You
Just might run and hide
So I won’t let you know
I just can’t let it show
Cause you bring so much love to me
You make me feel a live
But then you are gone from me again
If I
Told you how much I care
You might think me week
Not someone you would keep
So I
Keep these feelings deep inside
No one to see
A secret just for me
Cause you bring so much love to me
You make me feel a live
But then you are gone from me again

Won’t You Dance With Me
Won’t you dance with me?
Hold me in your arms
Forever in your arms
Won’t you dance with me tonight?
Queda de conmigo?
¿Abrázame en tus brazos
para siempre en tus brazos
Queda de conmigo
I just want to feel your love
Always in me
And know
we’ll always be as one
Solo quiero sentir tu amor
siempre en mí y
Queda de conmigo, Queda de conmigo
Won’t you dance with me?
Fly off into a land
live a life hand and hand
Won’t you dance with me tonight?
Queda de conmigo
Volando a la tierra
en una vida mas claro
Queda de conmigo
