	A Light in the Darkness   Rock     Song Info:  An easy listening rock song with philosophical undertones in the lyrics. Lyrics:  A Light in the Darkness Fred Miller © 2006 A light in the darkness to guide me on my way A light in the darkness brings me comfort until the day No matter how late at night No matter how dark it may be A light is all I need to see A light in the darkness so in the darkness I can see A light in the darkness no matter how dark it may be If the darkness is overwhelming If clouds obscure the stars A light will let you see where you are Break A light, no matter how tiny is brighter the darker it is A light can pierce the darkness and bring the comfort that it gives Whether it is as bright as the sunlight Or as faint as the stars in the sky The darkness is broken It’s gone in the blink of an eye Fade end Lyrics Author:  Fred Miller Composer:  Fred Miller Filesize:  4.1MB   A One In A Million Kind Of Guy   Folk rock     Song Info:  A One In A Million Kind Of Guy Fred Miller 2004 1st verse He’s a well-respected man among his peers A friend to everyone he’s met Anyone who’s met him knows he’s not a man to fear He isn’t someone you would forget. He would give you the shirt right off his back If he thought it would do you some good He never expects anything in return, Even though he almost always could Chorus He’s a one in a million kind of guy He knows how to make someone who is down and out smile He’s never dull or boring and his life is a great story He’s a one in a million kind of guy 2nd verse You can always count on him to come through in a pinch He’s always there ready to help If you have any kind of trouble he’ll be there on the double Never thinking of himself He’s the champion of the underdog He will try to never let you fail Until you get back on your feet and ready to compete He’s there to make sure justice will prevail Chorus Break Chorus 3rd verse He’s got a great big smile you could see for a mile And a million dollar personality He never takes the credit although he could certainly get it He is just the way he thinks he should be You may not know his name but he’s not looking for fame But you’ll see him all over the place If you see him pass by make sure you say hi You’ll know him by his million dollar face Chorus end Lyrics:  Folk Rock the way it used to be.

Lyrics:  There’s Nothing New Under the Sun Fred Miller © 2004 No matter what you say No matter what you do Nothing you could do or you could say is new Anything you could say has been said Anything you could do has been done Alas there is nothing new under the sun Everything constantly changes But everything remains the same The only things that change, are the faces and names You might think you’ve found something new It’s probably already been done It’s only new to you, there’s nothing new under the sun No matter what you see No matter what you think Someone in the past has seen and thought about the same thing We are just different faces And our names are just different ones We’re all only human, there’s nothing new under the sun Lyrics Author:  Fred Miller Composer:  Fred Miller Filesize:  3.5MB   PARANOID!!!   Acoustic Blues     Song Info:  Folk Blues with layered vocals. Lyrics:  Paranoid!!! By Fred Miller © 2005 Why oh why is everyone talking about me today? When I walk by why do they all walk away? It feels like they'rs watching every step I take. They're probably talking about every move I make. I can't shake the feeling everything I do is being analyzed and criticized too. I'm so shook up, I've had enough for one day. I wish that I could hear what those people say. They get together and talk behind my back, They think I don't notice but I know it's a fact. I get a cold, cold feeling when I see them acting like that I gotta get awayor I'll go crazy, I gotta get back. They think I don't know that they're talkin' about me lately but I know that they are, I can tell from afar that they hate me. They can say what they may but they won't get their way, they can't make me do what it is that they're trying to get me to do, they won't break me. Some day I'll get away, when I do I don't care what they say. They'll be sorry that they did what they did to make me go away. I won't be back, I promise you that, I'm goin' away to stay. They can talk about each other, it won't bother me, I'll be gone anyway. I'm not paranoid, I just know that they're talkin' about me Mmhmm, I'm not paranoid, they'll have to talk about themselves without me there. They won't have me to push around. No, I'll be gone.

Lyrics:  Sleep Depravation Fred Miller © 2006 CD: The Many Voices of…. Lonely,...I'm so lonely I'm the only one that knows just how I feel And I don't even know if it's real.... Tired,...I'm so tired I've been up all night alone weary and wired Making music all night long Playing my guitar and singing along Concentration,... imagination by self induced isolation and deep meditation the line is thin when you're into sleep depravation Secluded,... and deluded I can hear the music in my head Like I am hearing someone else play listening from somewhere far away Illusion... and confusion I can't trust what's right before my eyes. I may just be dreaming otherwise It feels… so unreal Like some hallucination in my head Like someone else is up in there instead Singing songs and playing in my head I can't tell fact from fantasy As I'm drifting off to sleep Sleep depravation makes me feels Like everything around me is unreal Lyrics Author:  Fred Miller Composer:  Fred Miller Filesize:  4.9MB   The Corporate World   Folk     Song Info:  Folk protest.

Best reviewed with headphones on a lounge chair in the sun, with sun glasses, a Pina Colada in a tall tumbler with one of those little umbrellas. Lyrics:  Your Own Little Island Paradise Fred Miller 2006 I've got myself a little piece of paradise far away from the hustle and bustle and stress of city life A utopia where everything is good and everything is nice just like it should be in Shangrila where life is so serene CHORUS There's nothing like lying on the beach with everything you need just within your reach With your toes in the water it feels so nice Like your own little island paradise Lazy days are here to stay, everything is swell The sky is clear and things appear to be going quite well Although it's true there's work to do the work is always fun. It only rains at night and in the day it's always sun. CHORUS There's nothing like lying on the beach with everything you need just within your reach With your toes in the water it feels so nice Like your own little island paradise No traffic jams no telephones Just sun and sand and waves and palm trees swaying in the breeze to melt your blues away No place you need to go or schedules to keep besides the tides and time to eat no honking horns or cars speeding by no airplanes up in the sky CHORUS There's nothing like lying on the beach with everything you need just within your reach With your toes in the water it feels so nice Like your own little island paradise Like your own little island paradise Lyrics Author:  Fred Miller Composer:  Fred Miller Filesize:  3.1MB
