Bloody Valentine

Bloody Valentine
Home sweet home
in view
watching
her bloom
A wolf hides
in sheepfold
licking his teeth
and croons
When skies turn blue
Cupid flew the coop
My bloody valentines
through playing peekaboo
Bogeyman
in the woods
stirring
her nerves
They’re
pining for you
to come unglued
and run
When skies turn blue
Cupid flew the coop
My bloody valentines
through playing
peekaboo
Home sweet home
picnic
New bloom
tinder sticks
My bloody valentines
through playing
peekaboo

Sweet Little Devil

SWEET LITTLE DEVIL
On the beach you walk with me
Take me and dance
I don’t know
where we’re going
But you take me
Straight
Down
Where the lights fall to the ground
So you can be my baby
be my baby free
So far away
We’re sailing
And I’ll meet you
straight back
when we get to heaven
You’re my sweet little babe
You’re my sweet little Devil
Just don’t take me with you straight down to hell
Your my pretty girl
You walk with me
Take me and dance
I don’t know where we’re going
But you take me
Straight
Down
Where the lights
fall to the ground
So you can be my baby
Be my baby
Free
I told you once
I told you twice
If you mess with me
Then I won’t be so nice
You’re my sweet little babe
You’re my sweet little Devil
Just don’t take me with you
Straight on down to hell

Drunk On You
03:25

The only thing
I want to do
is go there
one more night with you.
Race the sun and
crawl back in
with our heads soaked
in spirits and the blues
Let’s take a
one way train
back in
Happy hours
waiting
The candy light
shines on you
at the Saturn Bar
New Orleans
Drunk
on you
I’m floating
with a mermaid
on the moon
Drunk
on you
I’m floating
with a mermaid
on the moon
They found each other
falling
A Tsunami
brought you him
A seahorse came in
with the wind
and she tied
her ribbon arms
around his neck
Drunk
on you
I’m floating
with a mermaid
on the moon
Drunk
on you
A seahorse kissed
a mermaid
on the moon
Drunk
again
at the
Saturn Bar
New Orleans

Cavalier
I thought it was a dream
It was you and me
dancing
in this painting
by the sea
Stop the voices
haunting
Make my mind
empty
in this gallery.
Down, down, down
In deep sleep
Down , down, down
I can’t tell .....
if I’m
the monster
in this dream
We were both
happy here
With all our souvenirs
gallivanting by the sea
Sometimes
darkness appears
and buries you
with fear
then smiles cavalier
Down , down, down
in deep sleep
Down, down,down
Can’t tell....
If I’m
the monster
in this dream
Down ,down, down
Can’t tell if I’m living
a nightmare
or a dream
Or if I’m the monster
in this dream

Take me somewhere
like home
Where are we going to go
We were laughing, dancing
til’ the bar closed
We can build
a wild fire
It’s not to late
I’ll bring the Cadillac
round back
You grab
the suitcase
and cat
Take me anywhere but here
Where we gonna drive to ?
A storms coming fast
and it’s getting cold
I can drive all night
Just tell me where to go
Take me somewhere
Slow
Take me somewhere
Slow
Let’s start a life
together
down in
El Paso
I got a belief
when you’re so far away
If you’re thinking of me
It’s cause
I’m thinking of you
We can build
a wild fire
It’s not to late
Take me somewhere
Slow
Take me somewhere
Slow
Let’s start a life
together
down in
El Paso

Tomorrow Night

Tomorrow night
Will you remember what you said tonight?
Tomorrow night
Will all thrills be gone?
Tomorrow night
Will it be just another memory,
Or just another lovely song
That's in my full heart to linger on?
Your lips are so tender,
Your heart is beating fast
And you're willing to surrender.
Tell me, darling, will it last?
Tomorrow night
Will you be with me when the moon's bright?
Tomorrow night
Will you say those lovely things you said tonight?
Tomorrow night
Will it be just another memory
Or just another lovely song
That's in my full heart to linger on?
Your lips are so tender,
Your heart is beating fast
And you're willing to surrender.
Tell me, darling, will it last?
Tomorrow night
Will you remember what you said tonight?
Tomorrow night
Will you say those lovely things you said tonight?

Stephen El Rey El Paso, Texas
Stephen El Rey is an American singer / songwriter.
He carries a torch for things that
seem to slowly vanish in American culture.
El Rey’s vocals capture the allure of early Hollywood crooners, the vulnerability of Roy Orbison, and the raw power of Howlin’ Wolf.
He currently performs as Tormenta Rey: A 21st-century act that tight ropes Americana, Swamp Blues and Jazz Noir.
