love games are but a hart at play.in the golden meadows of "live for today"> and the part we play in that kaleidoscope scene, are but shattered fragments in a stain glass dream. i rememb jeff bates

i make my living with paper and pencil, and an old guitar i use melody and words that rhyme to tug at other's hearts but mine is still too tender, to put her on a page 'cause i'd have to remember the jeff bates

jeff bates - i hurt so bad
my heart felt like a mountain crashing. a dying victim of your crushing words. my courage trampled by your good-bye. my last shred of happiness, suppress by the closing of your heart's door. (chorus) jeff bates
