Howdy JPFrs all over the place! I want to share this older song, co-written with Jim Purtell, that we turned over to Mike Zaneski on which to put his own, unique spin. He never disappoints. Thanks ahead for listening.

SOMETIMES NOT

Is it this cold empty bed
I toss and turn in all night
Or a cruel winter wind instead
That chills me in moon light
Thought I knew the difference
Between what I want and what I’ve got
Sometimes I know but sometimes not

Is it the hot sun that blinds
On this bright new shiny day
Or a stinging in my eyes
From those dreams that blew away
Thought I knew the difference
Between what I’ve sold and what I’ve bought
Sometimes I know but sometimes not

On any given day
I’d be the first to say
Life is only what we make it
Now I find that hard to admit

Is it age that makes me ask
What have I done with my life
Or the time that slips my grasp
For one last chance that might
Thought I knew the difference
Between what I’ve learned and what I’ve taught
Sometimes I know but sometimes not

Thought I knew the difference
Between what I’ve learned and what I’ve taught
Sometimes I know but sometimes not
