Kenny Hogan - Lyrics & Poetry

A Collection of words, ideas, poetry, and half finished song lyrics.

I see people
working from day to day
slaving their lives away
and I say, "why?"
why not live life as if it were a gift to you?

and it's true
we learn as we grow,
but it seems,
somehow we forget how to dream,
and I say, "why?"
your dreams are your life,
and life is just a gift to you,
a gift to you,

Why you wanna wait till tomorrow?
what is it you want anyway?
that's why they call this the present time,
you can open your present today

I see people
working from day to day
slaving their lives away
and I say, "why?"
why not live life as if it were a gift to you?


- Kenny Hogan 1971

About this blog




My name is Kenny Hogan and I write a lot of songs.
Sometimes I don't finish what I start.
Other times I just get a few phrases and save them for later. There are notebooks crammed with these half finished songs all over my house.
I'm going through them and posting the most promising ideas here.
Maybe I'll finish them later. Maybe I won't.
We'll see...



These are works in progress.
Archives.
Fragments of unsolved puzzles.

Maybe they'll become songs some day.



"Write it down, it might be read,
Nothing's better left unsaid."

- Procol Harum
