Ninja Ballerina Song # 468 \| 3/19/13 From Purest Form of Trance CD I have broken my heart so many times I have broken my hear so many times And I would gladly break it open again for you I don't know how to say this so you won't run away I don't know how to say this so you won't run away But I miss you when you're not a part of my day You keep trying to keep me from getting too close You keep trying to keep me from getting too close But I refuse to be haunted by your ghosts Refrain: Ninja Ballerina! Lay down your arms Ninja Ballerina! Lay down your arms I will keep you safe from any harm... I believe that love never dies I believe that love never dies We whisper it out into the world and it amplifies... I have whispered my love so many times I have whispered my love so many times And I would whisper it one more time for you Refrain: I believe that love never dies I believe that love never dies We whisper it out into the world and it amplifies...

Wind On My Skin Song # 470 \| 3/31/13 \| Purest Form of Trance CD I want to run with a woman who runs with the wolves I want to howl at the moon till it rises full Wind. On my skin... I want to turn the wine back into water Spend the night with a ninja's daughter Wind. On my skin... I don't know if I believe in God But I'm pretty sure God believes in me Wind. On my skin... I want to scream past a barn, shout down a storm Open up my stride in perfect form. Wind. On my skin... Refrain: Wind on my skin is the house I live in Wind on my skin is the house I live in Cast your demons to the curb Each step takes you deeper into the world Wind. On your skin... I love the way you run... wild horse free Kicking up your heels so easily Wind. On your skin... I want to grab your mane and hitch a ride With my song in your heart you will find your stride Wind. On your skin... Refrain: Wind on your skin is the house you live in Wind on your skin is the house you live in Love yourself out into the world Give yourself to Life like a sail unfurls Wind. On your skin... Run with the sun burning off the mist Run the way a lover gently insists Wind. On your skin Refrain: Wind on your skin is the house you live in Wind on your skin is the house you live in Bridge: Drumming out the rhythm of the road yeah.... I want to run with a woman who runs with the wolves I want to howl at the moon till it rises full Wind. On my skin... I want to turn the wine back into water Spend the night with a ninja's daughter Wind. On my skin... Wind on my skin is the house I live in... Wind on your skin is the house you live in... Wind on our skin is the house we live in... Copyright 2013 by Mark Shepard. All Rights Reserved. Used by Permission.

about

Mark Shepard Albany, New York

Welcome to my “Life In Song” project.

Since 1976, I’ve been obsessively and compulsively writing songs. Some of them are inspired by my own life, my attempts to understand love, life, spirituality, peace and justice.

While I recently have started to get a little recognition, you’ve probably never heard my songs ANYWHERE.

But now you can hear them... here... Download. Share. Thanks! ... more
