Take a Little Time (Breen)

There’s a whole lotta love in this ol’ world
There’s a smilin’ little boy and a laughin’ little girl
We get so wrapped up in our day to day
We gotta take a little time, feel the sunshine
and let the music play

So take a little time
take a little time
Feel the sunshine
Take a little time

We’re all living’ on the earth and it’s a big ol’ place
sometimes it feels like a big rat race
Well, I got a little secret that I just got to share
The place that we’re going to in such a hurry
isn’t going anywhere

So take a little time
take a little time
Feel the sunshine
Take a little time

So take a little time
take a little time
Breathe a little air, show someone you care
Take a little time

Take a little time…

Past Lives by Mike Breen - Basilbone Records-copyright 2000.

I dreamed I had a past life
seems so real I think it must be true
I was a priest in Southern France
the year was 1862

Alone I watched one afternoon
the roses in the chapel garden bloom
I heard a playful robin’s tune
and the parish ladies as they cleaned the pews

said a prayer to Mary for the worked I’d yet to do
turned to leave and then I started thinking about you

CHORUS
Past lives I have known them
Past lovers now are friends
I remember now and then
there is no end

You were the girl from Avignon
A vision on the convent lawn
you made the Pope go back to Rome
and gave this orphan heart a home

when suddenly I had to go
France invaded Mexico
knowing that our time would end
we made a vow to meet again

said a prayer to Mary for this love so strong and fine
here you are still with me another place another time

CHORUS
Past lives I have known them
Past lovers now are friends
I remember now and then
there is no end

Now you teach high school history
I read French poetry
we go to the same church on Sunday

CHORUS
Past lives I have known them
Past lovers now are friends
I remember now and then
there is no end

there is no end

They grow up so fast. Don't let a moment slip by without appreciating what a blessing they are in your life. So grateful to have spent Ryan's birthday with him.

The Little Things (Mike Breen) From the CD "Past Lives" on Basilbone Records (feat. Jenny Lynn Young on
Electric Cello)

I watched him walk to his car
open up the hood
Check the oil, check the radiator
give it one last look
Then turn and with a smile
said “don’t wait up for me”
then he held out his hand
I gave him the keys

Hey, wait a minute
where’d the little things go
little hands, little smile, little nose
Where’d the little things go

I could feel my heart racing
as I watched him pull away
“A fine boy you’ve got there”
I heard the neighbor say
I smiled choked back a tear
and said “you know you’re right”
but I couldn’t help thinking
as he drove out of sight

Hey, wait a minute
where’d the little things go
little hands, little smile, little nose
Where’d the little things go

Well, his Mom and me we asked
each other
where the time had gone
and the little cars and fire trucks
and bikes on the lawn
Went up to bed early
but didn’t sleep at all
just listened to the ticking of
the clock up on the wall
Then suddenly the sweetest sound
we could ever know
the squealing of his brakes
in the driveway below

Hey, wait a minute
where’d the little things go
little hands, little smile, little nose
Where’d the little things go

Mescal Mary & Other B Bender Guitar Instrumentals - Review by Bill Nash

Click here for Mescal Mary on CDBABY

Bill Nash - The Guy who made the guitar I play - Nash Guitars
Get this CD and it will restore your faith in music!
After many years of playing, recording and being involved in all things guitar, it is hard to impress me. I can honestly say that this CD REALLY impressed me. This is the real stuff - music played without compromise. Recorded beautifully. Every nuance is clear to your ears. If you are into great guitar playing and want to have a party for your ears, check out Mr. Breen. The B-bender guitar gives an amazing blend of traditional and slide/steel playing that mixes and blurrs the edges of county, rock and blues. WOW!
