Drive
Words & music Michael Veitch

Drive, my baby, drive
Drive, my baby, drive
We're chasing' down the coast now
Sunset turns the show to red now
No rush to be anywhere free
There's no place we'd rather be, here and now
Drive, my baby, drive
Drive, my baby, drive
First star shines a smile on us now
Another perfect day is through now
Summer nights wrap around our love
Feel the blessings from above, here and now
Don't let our summer slip away
Don't let our summer end today
Believe, believe
Drive, my baby, drive etc.

August Nights
words&music by Michael Veitch
(c)2014 Burt Street Music(BMI)
August nights, they may be the sweetest
The late summer breezes
Drifting to greet us
Summer's end
The magic near done
The song's we've only just begun
All is safe and warm
The beach goes on forever
Two sails set for sea
To join the horizon together
August nights they may be the sweetest
Holding your hand
A sunset between us
Sound of the surf
The soundtrack of our lives
The world may move on
But we've still the ocean in our eyes
The days of dreaming
The nights believing
Wishes to the stars
Keeping close to our hearts
August nights, they may be the sweetest..

Close To The Flame
words & music Michael Veitch
(c)2014 Burt Street Music (BMI)
I'm here to confess
Some years were just a mess
Crawling through the dark
With a knife in my chest
Prayed it all would work out
We would make it through the fallout
Like butterflies, leaving behind stains on the page
Flying too close to the flame
I'm here to confess
Some good stuff it got missed
Falling from the rafters
We all have to serve
More than one master
And there's always the muse
She's never too far from the tears
And the laughter and the rain
Flying too close to the flame
Bring your light to my heart
Shine your light through this dark
Beam the light from your star
Here's my heart
I'm here to confess
We all tried our best
To hold back the night
And light up the rest
And I may have been silent
And I may have been absent
You were never far
From where I hold on when it rains
Flying too close to the flame

Together
words & music Michael Veitch
(c) 2014 Burt Street Music (BMI)
Today could be a beautiful tomorrow
Been talking to yesterday
Sunrise on the way
Reminds of the days we used to dance
While I held your hand
Laughing back at the rain
We could be the start of something good
Or maybe better
Just as we all hoped and prayed it would
Bringing us together
Today could be a beautiful tomorrow
Been walking in yesterday
Moonrise on the way
Lightening strikes and we can see the future
We're holding it here in our hands
Full moon lights the way
We could be the start of something good
Or maybe better
Wake up every sleeping heart it could
Bringing us together
Today could be a beautiful tomorrow
Been talking to yesterday
Sunshine on the way
Reminds me of the dreams we used to have
It hasn't been hard to believe
We're living those dreams again
This could be the start of something good
Or maybe better
Just as we all hoped and prayed it would
Bringing us together
Today could be a beautiful tomorrow
We're

My Old Car
words & music Michael Veitch
(c) 2007 Burt Street Music(BMI)
My old car
Rust in the shade
A slow burn
As you rot away
Vines growing through your floorboards
Leaves piled to the backdoors
Jesus standing on the dash board
My old car
Slowly turn to dirt
No flame in your engine
Where the silence hurts
No more wheels spinning round
Radio no longer making sounds
The Goodyears crumble into the ground
Goodbye to the old high school
Two tone still the height of cool
Baby moons sparkle like urban jewels
Arm around the blond in the saddle shoes
My old car
Chrome all peeled
Your window
s been shot out
Nothing left to steal
But there are voices I can still hear
Faces in the rear view mirror
Backseat moaning with love and fear
My old car

Perfect Day
words & music by Michael Veitch
(c)2014 Burt Street Music(BMI)
Today could be your perfect day
Take a step into a new direction
And for once you've made the right selection
Walk into a dream
That you have been dreaming
Today could be your perfect day
Be a standout in a thankless crowd
And you can't help but shout out loud
Tell the whole world now
That everything's okay
As the sun, comes up
And we all keep turning round and round
Get up and get going before it's gone
Today could be your perfect day
Don't you give up now you'll soon be winning
And each hour brings a new beginning
Call it what you will
Just don't stop dreaming
Don't stop dreaming.
Dream on

The Veitch Boys Woodstock, New York
Born in the upstairs bedroom of an old gray house in Bellows Falls, Vermont, far from the beach, The Veitch Boys pay homage to the great groups of the California sound era with a few twists and shimmy thrown in. The work of leader Michael Veitch, who's first single ever bought with his own money was "Don't Worry Baby" by the Beach Boys--a long long time ago. ... more
