EVERY SONG REMINDS ME OF YOU
Words and Music Stephen Randall
I fall asleep with the radio on
To stop my mind from wandering
But it doesn't seem to help me at all
'Cos my heart tells my head I'm suffering
And I hear your name
In every refrain
CHORUS
Every song reminds me of you
With every beat, my heart beats for you
Every song reminds me of you
In my dreams I hear melodies
And singers are singing to me
But their words are like an open wound
And their harmonies unravel me
And I hear your name
In every refrain
CHORUS
Every song reminds me of you
With every beat my heart beats for you
Every song reminds me of you
And the air is thick with a symphony
That lingers and laughs at my reality
CHORUS
Every song reminds me of you
With every beat my heart beats for you
Every song reminds me of you

TRAIN TO ECSTASY
Words and Music Stephen Randall
Love is not a place I know
I think I knew her long ago
But now I want that taste on me
On the train to ecstasy
Let the journey redefine
Leave behind the ties that bind
Savor all that we can find
On the train to ecstasy
CHORUS
Why don't you sway
And ride with me
Take this train to ecstasy
Why don't you sway
And ride with me
Take this train to ecstasy
Not everything is destiny
Some of it is fantasy yeah
Better that than reality
On the train to ecstasy
To a damaged heart I plead
You and I deserve relief
You are everything I need
Board the train to ecstasy
CHORUS
Why don't you sway
And ride with me
Take this train to ecstasy
Why don't you sway
And ride with me
Take this train to ecstasy
Sway and ride with me
You and I deserve relief

Can’t wait for you

Is breaking through
I haven’t slept
Thinking ‘bout you
Truth be told
Waiting is too hard to do

Can’t wait for you

ONE PROMISE (I CAN’T KEEP)
Words and Music Stephen Randall
I promise I'll be there for you girl
When you need the strength to carry on
And I promise I won't let you down girl
I'll come running when you feel alone
But if you ask me not to cross the line
Between a friend and the lover
That I know you need
Well that's one promise that I
One promise that I
I can’t keep
I promise I will always be true girl
You know I’ll never tell you lies
And I promise I’d be happy just holding you girl
Staring into those eyes
But if you ask me not to cross the line
Between a friend and the lover
That I know you need
Well that's one promise that I
One promise that I
I can’t keep
I can't be just a friend to you
That would be too hard for me you know
I need to be the one waking up next to you
That would be so easy for me you know
I promise I'll be there for you girl
When you need the strength to carry on
And I promise I won't let you down girl
I'll come running when you feel alone
But if you ask me not to cross the line
Between a friend and the lover
That I know you need
Well that's one promise that I
One promise that I
I can’t keep

HOLLY BOUGHT A FENDER
Words And Music Stephen Randall
Holly had a pickup
Over twenty years old
But it would never start
She was told she’d be lucky
To get five hundred bucks
With all those miles on the clock
So she sold the pickup
Took the money
To a local music shop
Holly bought a Fender
Holly bought a Fender
Holly bought a Fender
And she played it every night
She even took it to bed
She learned every chord
And played every scale
Until her fingers bled
She wrote a few songs
And tried them out
At an open mic
Holly bought a Fender
Holly bought a Fender
CHORUS
Holly packed a bag and her guitar
She just knew that she was going far
The road to fame was long and hard
But she had God and hope and a prayer
Holly was a dreamer
And she knew that for some
Dreams come true
She never stopped believing
The time would come
For her breakthrough
She knew she was
One in a million
About the odds
Of finding fame
Holly bought a Fender
Holly bought a Fender
CHORUS
Holly packed a bag and her guitar
She just knew that she was going far
The road to fame was long and hard
But she had God and hope and a prayer
Holly packed a bag and her guitar
She just knew that she was going far
The road to fame was long and hard
But she had God and hope and a prayer
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh

Yes I wonder if I will end up in my grave

ACHILLES’ HEART
Words and Music Stephen Randall
I used to think
This heart of mine
Was invincable
The good news baby is
It’s beating just fine
For the love I feel
But where I thought
My armor was strong
You could pierce the chain
The bad news baby is
True love hurts
And I can feel the pain (because)
CHORUS
I’ve got an Achilles’ heart
And you’ve got an arrow
I’ve got an Achilles’ heart
And you’ve got an arrow
This brave face
Is just a mask
I hide behind
I thought you couldn’t see
But I’m the only one
Who’s love is blind
And though I try
To protect mysellf
My defenses are down
If you breach these walls
Take me prisoner
You know I’m not that strong
CHORUS
I’ve got an Achilles’ heart
And you’ve got an arrow
I’ve got an Achilles’ heart
And you’ve got an arrow
You’ve got an arrow
I’ve got an Achilles’ heart
And you’ve got an arrow

Well no one can get to us now
And no one can hurt us anymore
And no one can tell us what to do
Escape into my head with me

GIRL IN A CLOUD
Words and Music Stephen Randall
I will wait for you
My girl in a cloud
Keep on shining through
My girl in a cloud
We need something
More than we can get
And life hasn't yielded
To us yet
So I will wait for you
My girl in a cloud
You can fly for me
My girl in a cloud
You are the sky for me
My girl in a cloud
You’re my hope
You’re my song
And when you smile
We are strong
And you can fly for me
My girl in a cloud
And when it rains
You’re above the rain
And when it shines
You part and let it shine, shine, shine
Hey there girl in a cloud
When I’m alone
I’m not alone
I’m your man on the ground
And in an instant, we are one
And words alone cannot express
How a girl in a cloud
Has me obsessed
And I will be with you
My girl in a cloud
And when it rains
You’re above the rain
And when it shines
You part and let it shine, shine, shine
And I will wait for you
Yes I will wait for you
Oh I will wait for you
My girl in a cloud

Stephen Randall Henderson, Nevada
I'm a Brit living in Henderson, NV.
I used to be a professional songwriter, but when I wrote
for other people, I lost touch with the music that was important to me personally. I forgot what music fed my soul. I put down my guitar and keyboard to pursue other adventures. Now I write from my heart and experience and for me.
