“Fires and Horizons”

Short Story & Explanation:
“Fires and Horizons” is a journey through the moments that define a life: from the energy of a new beginning to the sweet melancholy of memories, all the way to the freedom of chasing one’s dreams.

The album opens with “Rising Fire”, an explosion of light and movement that captures the listener and symbolizes the birth of an adventure. As we move through memories and everyday tales in “Echoes of Yesterday” and “Small Town Tales”, deep bonds and silent promises emerge, told through the intimacy of “Whispered Promises”.

Life unfolds in moments of reflection, solitude, and personal confessions (“Late Night Confession”), leading to the discovery of freedom and motion with “Boots on the Floor” and “Highway Thunder”, where adrenaline and the desire to live take over. Finally, the album closes with “Sunset Horizon”, a moment of peace and contemplation where the journey ends but the hope for new horizons remains alive.

“Fires and Horizons” is more than just a collection of songs: it is a story of growth, love, challenges, and freedom—an invitation to live every moment with passion and curiosity.

2.Echoes of Yesterday

This Little Lady of Mine - tells the story of everyday pressures as they arrive in a new town with no job, the list is a mile long, and the noose feels tight. She’s flustered and going off, he goes off too, and they both know they’re not good with pressure. He still calls her his girl, because when their ducks are in a row she glows. Right now he can’t breathe and just wants it all normal again, please. When they’ve got it together there is no doubt: this little lady is the light of his life.
He can’t wait to have her in his arms again because she’s sweet as apple pie and that is no lie.
A look in her eye starts the turn, he gets the job, and things don’t seem so bad.
No tirade to duck now; he’s got his baby back, the lady he lives for. She throws the list out the window, sees the light, and when it’s good everything is in perspective. By the end it’s simple and sure: we’re for life, always will be, oh yeah.

Lyrics
This Little Lady of Mine

When things aren’t going right
Well, it is fair to say, she drives me mad
But when our ducks are all in a row
She is my girl, and doesn’t she glow (oh my)
Right now, we’re in a new town, still ain’t got that job
She’s got a list a mile long,
The noose is tightening, finding it hard to breathe
Can’t wait till it’s all normal again (please)

When we have got it all together (there is no doubt)
This little lady of mine is the light of my life
Can’t wait to have her in my arms again (going to ignite)
Because she is as sweet as apple pie and that is no lie

[Instrumental]

I’m starting to see the light, it starts with that look in her eye
I finally got that job and things don’t seem so bad (thank god)
Don’t have to duck that tirade of words
Got my baby back, and this is the lady I live for (oh yeah)

When we have got it all together (there is no doubt)
This little lady of mine is the light of my life
Can’t wait to have her in my arms again (going to ignite)
Because she is as sweet as apple pie and that is no lie

She through that list out the window now
Couldn’t care less can see the light now
About time because I need my little lady (I do)
When it is good, everything is in perspective

When we have got it all together (there is no doubt)
This little lady of mine is the light of my life
Can’t wait to have her in my arms again (going to ignite)
Because she is as sweet as apple pie and that is no lie

[Instrumental]

Oh yeah, ah hah, we’re for life, always will be ooooh yeah
