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?

Window Ledge Romances and Brown-Eyed Saviours

Show reel of remote drum/percussion recordings I had the privilege to play on.

KevZedDrums - Remote Session Show Reel

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).
