Today my son turned 18! I wrote this for him yesterday in what was a very emotional experience. I’m so proud of him. Where does time go...❤️😊🎹🎤🎵

Love this pic his friend took of him singing and playing.

Thank you Sander for your beautiful mastering job and YouTube video! You’re the best...😊❤️❤️

Lyrics,

If I had a pound for every smile
I’d be the richest mum in the world

You’re becoming the man
That I hoped you would be...

I’ve watched you win
I’ve watched you lose
But I’m proud of the things you do...

You’re becoming the man
That I hoped you would be...

I’ve watched you fall
I’ve wiped your tears
But you don’t need me so much now
But it’s okay

You’re becoming the man
That I hoped you would be 

I’m proud
I’m proud of you...

I’ve watched you grow

Grow (Happy 18th birthday to my lovely son Josh)

Lyrics

We could start a fire
Watch it burn all night
Listen to the wind blow
As the flame ignites

I could take a dose of cabin fever
If it’s shared with you
Go into hiding 
And just let us be....

We could play a game
(Oh play with me)
Of hide and seek
But I’d let you find me
Quicker than you should, you should...

Pull me
Push me away

I keep singing my heart out
I keep singing in circles 

You’ll be singing your heart out

Drawn to you
Drawn to me

I keep singing my heart out
I keep singing in circles
You’ll be singing your heart out to me

Keep singing…

Circles

MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME (with acoustic piano)

Here’s my attempt at Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap. She inspired me to create my own music in my own house years ago. With piano and lots of vocal layers. 😊🎤🌷💕

Thank you to my lovely Sander for mastering again. 😊❤️🎶

Where are We
What the hell is going on
The dust has only just began to form 
Crop circles in the carpet
Sinking feeling

Spin me round again 
And rub my eyes
This can’t be happening 
With busy streets a mess 
People would start to hold their heads heavy

Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
All those years
They were here first….

Oily marks appear on walls 
Where pleasure moments hung before the takeover
The sweeping insensitivity of this still life

Hide and seek
Trains and sewing machines
Blood and tears
They were here first…

Mmm what ya say
Oh that you only meant well
Well of course you did
Mmm what ya say
Mmm that it’s all for the best
Of course it is
Mmm what ya say
That it’s just what we need
You decided this…
Mmm what ya say
What did she say…

Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid sweet talk 
Newspaper word cut outs
Speak no feeling no I don’t believe you
You don’t care a bit
You don’t care a bit
You don’t care a bit

HIDE AND SEEK (cover)

Here’s my latest song written at my real acoustic piano. 

Thank you so much to my lovely Sander for mastering. 
@wane-of-summer 😊💕🎶❤️🎼🎵🎹🎤❤️

You’ve stolen my heart
Killed all my doubts
And now I’m falling
Head over heels

And now I’m wondering 
If you’ll be my partner in crime

You’ve robbed my soul
Set me aflame 
And now I’m burning
Just for you

Oh sentence me
Oh sentence me

PARTNER IN CRIME (acoustic piano)

Here’s my latest song writing effort mastered by my lovely Sander. 😊❤️🎶❤️

Works Wonders…

Lovely to post a Passion Arcade track with my lovely Sander as my first post this year! We hope you enjoy. @wane-of-summer for his gorgeous music. 😊❤️❤️❤️🎶

Fire In My Heart (Passion Arcade)

Back at my acoustic piano for my first song of 2025. 😊🎶🎹🌷

Thank you @wane-of-summer for a wonderful master. 😊🎶❤️❤️❤️

All my colours are on display
But it seems
That you want me anyway
Oh how we’ll grow

I’m no bed of roses
But you help me bloom…

Oh how time flies 
And the petals fall
Oh now I bloom
No thorns in sides
Oh how we grow

I’m no bed of roses
But you help me grow…

In full bloom…

All my colours
Are on display 
But it seems
That you need me anyway

BED OF ROSES (acoustic piano)

Thank you to my lovely Sander for mastering this old song of mine. 😊🎶🎹❤️


Lyrics. 
Once in a while
The stars collide
Once in a while
The waves will rise

I’ll be your diamond in the rough


Once in a blue moon
The heart will sing
Once in a blue moon
My heart will sing

I’ll be your diamond in the rough…

LONESOME TRAVELLER Written with my big sis Jane Hamilton

Can't sleep, walk the lonely streets...
Counting shadows on the pavement
In the glow of the lamplight

Follow me, follow me, into the night...oh
Follow me, follow me, oh follow me

Walk with me, let's count the stars
Let's count the shadows, all the shadows
Oooh follow me

Won't you follow me, in the night
Won't you walk with me, count the shadows
With me...with me...

Don't sleep, walk the quiet streets with me
Count the shadows in the moonlight...
Love me

@ClassicalGlass for more wonderful music.

A midnight walk( by ClassicalGlass and Annie Smart)

Little drops
Well they fall from my eyes 
Cause I miss you 
I need you
Oh I miss you in the rain...

I remember when we were caught in the rain
I remember the heavens, they opened that day

Little thoughts 
Well they cloud my mind
Cause I need you
I need you in the rain...

Chorus

Little drops
They fall from my eyes
When the rain came down
Little thoughts
They cloud my mind
When the rain came down..

CAUGHT IN THE RAIN

Losing track of weeks
Losing track of days
There’s one thing
I know I want to say
(I need to say)

If you want to know
If I’ll be there
You can count on it
If you gotta know
If I’m yours
You can count on it

Losing sense of time
Losing all my words
There’s one thing
I need to say

Chorus

When the sun comes up
When the stars align 
When the moon shows up
I’ll be there...

When the sun comes up
You can count on me
When the stars align
When the moon shows up
You can count on me
I’ll be there

Chorus

COUNT ON IT

Can’t thank Leon enough for playing these gorgeous guitar parts on my song! He really brings it to life and is such a fabulous musician.  We hope you enjoy our second collaboration! 😊🎶🎤🎸🎼😍
@leon-thorne

Lyrics 
I was drawn to you
Like a moth to a flame
And I took to you
Like the sky takes the stars

One thing lead to another 
One thing lead me to you
One chance you gotta take it
Take me 
Don’t let me go...

Oh you call to me
Like the moon calls the ocean
I am drawn to you
Like the tide to the sand 

Chorus. 

Mmm mmm

One thing lead to another 
Like the moon calls the ocean...

ONE THING LEAD TO ANOTHER (with Leon Thorne on gorgeous guitars)

Thank you soooo much. 💕🎼

If I could paint a picture 
It would be of you
If I could paint a river
It would flow to you

So I’ll keep thinking along the same lines
Oh I’ll keep thinking in no space or time
Oh I’ll keep thinking along the same lines
Oh I’ll keep moving through no space or time

If I could paint the sky
I would meet you there
If I could paint the ocean
I’d sail your way

Chorus

I see your colours....
