LYRICS

Another round of Halo: Reach
Another double team to beat
Smoking weed to fall asleep
So lonesome and alone

Seven years ago from now
You crashed into my life somehow
I just want to let you know
I love what we’ve become

Don’t worry about ego shooter games
Love’s a battlefield, a crossfire or a quake

Cause you see me through
And you get me high
Just like lovers do
Just like addicts try
And I wonder who you are
Wonder where you came from 
And I still wonder who I am
And wonder where it leads to and since then 

Don’t worry about all the things to come
It’s easy to keep calm and carry on and on

Halo: Reach

Looking at you
Looking at me
Two mirrors reflecting mine
Smiling at you
Smiling at me
The edges of my life define

My life was in color
Now the details I can see
And I knew what love was
But it never felt so deep
Looking at you I see
The very best of me

Laughing at you
Laughing at me
Two notes in harmony
Crying with you
Crying with me
Makes my sorrow taste so sweet

My life was in color
Now the details I can see
And I knew what love was
But it never felt so deep
Looking at you I see
The very best of me

Feeling your little head on my shoulder 
Holding your little heartbeat a little closer
How could I know as you grow a little older
This is a love I won't get over

Growing with you
Growing past me
Taking steps I feared to take
Hoping that you
Never lose hope, dear
This world is yours to make

My life was in color
Now the details I can see
And I knew what love was
But I never felt so deep
Looking at you I see
The very best of me

THE RAILWAY SONG

I wrote this in January 2005, and have performed it solo many times but it took a while to get it recorded.

Each verse (and the bridge) is a scene from the Ithaca, NY area.

Lyrics:

a flash of gold
a flash of green
a flash of something old you
thought you never should've seen
a flash of alabaster
a flash of white, and after that
a flash of insight into
something gray you'd thought was unclean

rolling down the hillside,
tired and in no gear
the city lights below you,
up ahead a deer just crossed the road
 
you missed the sign,
but it occurs to you that
you are here.
 
you bought your ticket,
you paid the price:
you made your way here
slogging through the snow and ice
the sound and motion
wake you from sleep, mm
but it's the silence
that pulls you in deep.
 
come and dance with me,
i'm sitting very still
come sing your passion to the rooftops
and in the mumbled echo you might hear your name
 
there's only one way
to find out whether
you are here.
 
circling to land
the end of the line
no connecting flights
there's only one way to travel,
and that's forward in time.
 
i had a vision,
it went like this:
a quiet sunbeam
and a forest kiss
it led me forward, but
now it's so far away
and when I glimpse it, it
only leads to yesterday
 
how can i run in darkness, flying into fear?
but if i listen close and stay standing here,
will it come to me?
 
it all comes to this,
and this is you,
and you are here.

Dark On The Wind (Words & Music by Nigel Foote)

Lovers and strangers
Who knows the dangers
Gather ye roses while ye may boy
For the days they do roll
And a young tree grows old
I hear the thunder, dark on the wind

Yesterday’s faces
Distant embraces
Eyes that fan the fires for you boy
Impossible choices
Soft inner voices
I watch the leaves blow away in the wind

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Prohibited feelings
Trespassed emotions
Love’s bitter-sweet trade in old hearts boy
Catches you dreaming
Endlessly scheming
I feel the rain splash cool on my skin

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Eye-witness strangers
Clandestine exchanges
A room with a view of the harbour
You say it’s the last time
Just like the last time
I see the lightning flash blue on your skin

Chorus:
Will you marry me
Will you be true
Yes I will marry you
Do I lie to myself or to you

Lovers and strangers
Who knows the dangers
Gather ye roses while ye may boy
For the days they do roll
And a young tree grows old
I hear the thunder, dark on the wind
(Repeat last line x 2)

Dark On The Wind

This song is about loving one another, treating each other with respect, living lives with dignity and building up, not tearing down.
