Beauty In Her Own Backyard
(Words and music by Anthony Gwynne)
She’s found beauty in her own backyard
She don’t have to look to far
She don’t look at all
She don’t look at all
When she’s down
Clouds are darker in my heart
She’s the local work of art
But she don’t know at all
She don’t know at all
Time waits for no man
On the tide of a wave
For her I would sail the ocean blue
Just to find a life to save
But she’s found beauty in her own backyard
She don’t have to look to far
She don’t look at all
She don’t look at all
Time waits for no man
On the hills round town
If I were to be a noble man
She’d surely turn me down
Coz she’s found beauty in her own backyard
She don’t have to look to far
She don’t look at all
She don’t look at all
She don’t look at all
She don’t look at all

When Autumn Falls
(Words and music by Tony Gwynne)
As evening slowly turned to morning
The big bad world dragged me away
I had to walk to the horizon
But I’ll be back another day
Hush now don’t you cry
Don’t make a sound
You weren’t the one
To lead me out this town
When Autumn falls I’ll come back for you
If you still think of me at all
Life’s too short for distant memories
I’ll be knocking at your door
I promise I’ve not gone forever
My love for you will always burn
So heaven watch over my lover
Till I finally return
Hush now don’t you cry
Don’t shed a tear
I’ll come home to you
When I’m out of hear
Yeah
When Autumn falls I’ll come back for you
If you still think of me at all
Life’s too short for distant memories
I’ll be knocking at your door
When Autumn Falls

Rain Down On Me
(Music By Tony Gwynne, Words by Tony Gwynne/Sadie Fleming)
Picking up the pieces
That autumn left behind
She was my sweetest venus
But then she trapped my mind
She left me for the desert
As November poured
Rivers ran through avenues
Like I’ve never seen before
All I want is her love
To rain down on me
I need to be closer to
Where we used to be
As rivers find the oceans
I had to believe
She hadn’t left forever
Would she come back for me
The clouds began to suffer
from their endless tears
I’ll build a boat to find her
There’s storms I need to clear
All I want is her love
To rain down on me
I need to be closer
To where we used to be
I guess I’ll pray
For a rainy day
So her love’ll rain down on me
I guess I’ll pray for a rainy day so
Her love’ll rain down on
Her love’ll rain down on me
All I want is her love
To rain down on me
I need to be closer
To where we used to be

All the Same to You
(Words and music by Tony Gwynne)
If its all the same to you
I’ll bruise this heart of mine
Despite the things you do
I choose to waste my time
On you
On you
On you
Every hour spent on you
And if they turned on you
And made you walk in the rain
I’d shelter you my dear
Time and time again
For you
For you
For you
I’d stop the rain for you
But Its not easy
Turning around
When your calling out
But don’t hear a sound
If its all the same to you
I’ll always look to find
A way that I can be
forever on your mind
With you
With you
With you
If its all the same to you

If You were Mine
(Words and Music by Tony Gwynne)
I’m stood here at the top of a tower
And I don’t know how I’m gonna get down
Im stuck here cant you see
And its not easy
I’m waking in the middle of the night
With a feeling that I just can’t fight
My heart it beats and my head is over heals
But you don’t see me
I’ll tell you in the morning
With words impossible to find
But it’d be easy
If you were mine
I’m taking all the time I can
Trying to figure out what it takes to be your man
You said show me the world in your hands
Then try and please me
Gonna show you what it means to be in love
Like a caged bird that soars like a dove
I’ll love you then you’ll love me
It’d be easy
I’ll tell you in the morning
With words impossible to find
But it’d be easy
If you were mine
So I’ll tell you in the morning
With words impossible to find
But it’d be easy
If you were mine

Mystery to Me
(Words and Music by Tony Gwynne/Mark Chappell)
My love
Your a mystery
Cold as ice
But your burning me
Lost my senses
Trying to find
How to please your heart baby
Each and every time
But my sweet lover
You’re a mystery to me
My heart
Only seems to beat
When you shake that thing
And move those feet
I need you honey
Like a drunk needs wine
Wanna taste your sweet love baby
Your never off my mind
But My sweet lover
You’re a mystery to me
My sweet lover
You’re a mystery to me
When you smile at me
My heart beats fast
How I long for this feeling to last
Your black your white
Your rich your poor
You’re the showgirl
You’re the girl next door
My oh my
It makes my day
When you smile
But th en you turn away
You laugh you cry
Your high your low
You’re a stop sign telling me to go
But My sweet lover
You’re a mystery to me
My sweet lover
You’re a mystery to me

The Arrival of the Season
(Words and Music By Tony Gwynne/ Miles Biddulph/ Iain Archer)
Golden boy charisma
Blossom or we’ll wither with ya
Humming bird like wind chimes
Drown out all your secret designs
The arrival of the season
Is never when you think
Waiting on the inside
While the world is blossoming
Bees are buzzing everywhere
Weeds and flowers all sing
But the arrival of the season
Can be different from your dream.
The damming winds of freedom
Will slam the doors like you cant beat ‘em
So grab the truth with one hand
Turn and write it down in the sand
The arrival of the season
Is never when you think
Waiting on the inside
While the world is blossoming
Bees are buzzing everywhere
Weeds and flowers all sing
But the arrival of the season
Can be different from your dream.
On and on and on and on and on
The leaves are falling down
Your rose will rise above the brush
So lift yourself up off the ground
Can you believe
Seasons come and go
Now its time to know the spring

All I Need is Your Love
(Words and Music by Tony Gwynne)
Maybe all I need is your love
Coz lately its all that I’ve been dreaming of
But I never said it
Was that why you let me go
I knew that I’d regret it
Not saying I love you so
Lady all I want is your time
Three small word and you’d’ve been mine
But I never said it
Where did our love go
I never gave you credit
For the love you used to show
Lately all I want is the world
To keep turning
For the love of this beautiful girl
Will I evr tell you
The words you long to hear
The world may pass by you
But I’ll still be standing here
Baby All I need is your love
Lately its all that I’ve been thinking of
The time has come to say it
I’ll whisper I your ear
I’ll say three small words to you
Some time next year

Don’t Let it Rain Tonight
(Words and Music by Tony Gwynne)
How many times tonight
Will I savour this delight
While dawn is calling lovers in the night
To hold the Morning light
How many times can I
Look you in the eye
And swear by my right hand
Our love will never die
And hold you till the morning light
Don’t let it rain tonight
Our love will last forever
Don’t let it rain tonight
Don’t let it rain
Our love will remain
Don’t let it rain
‘Till the morning light
Will this everlasting night
Turn to cold day light
If heavens open
It may end our perfect night
So hold the morning light
