Can you dance out onto the window ledge
And wipe my blood from the edge?
Calm me down, bring me inside
Pour me tea, and watch me cry

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The special man
I used to be
I used to smile
I used to dance
You’ve got to believe
That I’m worth the chance

Can you forgive the darkest sins
Of lost and lonely, drunken men?
Can you hold my hand and show the way?
Cos all I know are yesterdays

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The gentle soul
That I used to be
I’m always there
For all my friends
A loyalty strong
Until the end

This isn’t a joke, this isn’t a dream
This is one life for what that means
I don’t know if you understand
But if you don’t then I’m a marked man

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
And pour your faith
Right into me
I know I’m asking
Far too much
But I swear I need
Your healing touch
 
Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The special man
I used to be
I used to smile
How I use to dance
Please take my hand
And give me a chance

What’s your word?

Lyrics:
You don’t wanna go
To Memphis
Too many thieves
Too many fences

Anything you wanna do
As long as I’m with you
Let’s talk it out 
Let’s work it out

Don’t wanna ride
You prefer walkin’
Say you can’t sleep
You feel like talking

Anything you wanna do
As long as I’m with you
Let’s talk it out 
Let’s work it out

Leave them behind
Best left forgotten
Baby blue sky
Clouds look like cotton

Anything you wanna do
As long as I’m with you
Let’s talk it out 
Let’s work it out
Let’s dream about

Anything

Your bangles jingle in the quiet night
Stars blush at your glowing light
Each step you take
A whispering breeze
Hearts bow low
Love’s gentle tease

Under the banyan
Shadows sway
Will you look my way
Just today

Moonlight mehndi on your hand
A story drawn in desert sand
I reach
I wait
I stay
Will you love me
Love me
Say

Your laughter rings
A temple bell
A secret tune
No one can tell
The sitar hums
The tabla sings
And my heart flies on broken wings

In the jasmine-scented air we stand
Dreams like henna stain the land
If I’m the thread
You’re the loom
We weave a dance beneath the moon

Moonlight mehndi on your hand
A story drawn in desert sand
I reach
I wait
I stay
Will you love me
Love me
Say

01 - 2020 All Genres (29/06/2025)

This minimalist orchestral ambient piece centered at 466 Hz is a slow-moving ritual of stillness, not as an escape from reality, but as a return to it in its most quiet and essential form. This is music for breathing, for grounding, for remembering the body’s place within the rhythm of the earth.
There is no climax, no urgency. The composition dwells in stasis, inviting the listener inward. Through subtle pulses and ambient modulations, it gently aligns breath and awareness, creating a meditative space where time seems to dissolve.
Looped textures of rainfall, soft wind, and crackling fire drift throughout — their imperfect, lo-fi character carrying the warmth of memory like a dream rendered in analog.
Though set in a minor key and layered with earthy drones, the mood is not sorrowful but anchoring. This is the quiet strength beneath silence — the low hum of the living earth. It unfolds like a sacred ceremony deep within the forest, where elemental sounds intertwine with the fragile resonance of a wordless soprano voice.

Winter Ride

Cast of Characters:
Paul Young — PRS SE semi-hollow body electric guitar
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – Upright double bass and organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four] -- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Earl Scruggs custom banjo, production, mix, and mastering
Cgmaness – @hiddenhands-760647700 – Chris – electric guitar
This is a song that Josh and his cousin Paul came up with on Thanksgiving night, after everyone went to bed. They were working on a much longer composition, but got stuck in the jam after looking at each other and wordlessly saying, "this is the magic, stick with it." We were playing an electric guitar and a stand-up bass to a looper disco beat when we recorded this. So, of course, Josh asked Ken if he'd add some real drums, which he did as though he were in the room jamming with us. Then josh laid down some organ to go with the jam. Chris even popped by to do that thrilling intro guitar part. Josh and Stephen also had the idea to add some banjo in here, which Stephen did like the excellent musician he is. He also managed to mix this live recording hybrid with exceptional skill. 
  This is an example of two musicians who are intimately familiar with each other, and each other's playing and sensibilities, accompanied by two other musicians who have become nearly as familiar over the past few years. Happy belated Turkey Day to everyone. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

(Verse)
Valentina,
Oh... dear... Valentina
Tell me what you're thinking...
Tell me why you want to forget...

(Verse 2)
Valentina,
Oh... sweet... Valentina
Bitter wound that never healed
You can create a tide if you want...

(Chorus)
Come on...press that button
You'd understand so many things before panettone
You don't want to celebrate and I understand you
At least let me hope and then I'll finish

(Verse 3)
Valentina,
Oh... foolish... Valentina
You've always made your own decisions and often badly
But I understand you,
The advice you've received has taken you away
And I'll finally say...
and so be it...

(Chorus)
Come on...press that button
Time doesn't help  Heal
And you know well that you can also die
Or even disappear without knowing it

(Verse 4)
We laughed, we decided
Ohh Valentina
To let time slip through our hands
And without speaking, we'll already see tomorrow

(Verse 5)
Valentina,
Oh... dear... Valentina
With everything we've said and unsaid
Another day and then another...
And meanwhile the wrinkles arrive and you always stay in bed

(Chorus)
Come on...let it go,
Never press that button
And if you wait for me to have to do it
Time passes and you'll always feel bad...

Ehh yes... you know...
Ehh yes... you wanted it this way...

Fear Of Cold

To celebrate 2000, I took a year off to write songs, novels, plays, and stories - and I've been doing that since. At the end of my first year, I won first prize in the USA Songwriting Contest in the Lyric Category for 'Drum Machines and Beauty Queens.' This led to co-writing songs with many excellent musicians, including those represented in songs posted here. 

More recently, I was one of seven finalists in the Crisis Lyric Category of the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest for 'Lockdown Blues,' and one of nine nominees in the 2021 International Song Awards with 'Didn't the River Know' and 'Blue and Gold.'

For the past two years, I've been collaborating with many talented musicians on Kompoz. I release many of these songs here and compile the best into albums released under Captain Stormfield's Trip on Spotify and other platforms (see links below).
