A Journal of Nonsense by Clay Young & Becky Coleman

I’m Going home

All the things that I have to tell her remain unspoken
The right words just don’t show up, within my mind
All I ask is How're you doing, are you happy?
Don’t dare to ask if she has a lover, or a child

So long I’ve waited to see her again
And now I don’t know what to do or when
I’m going home
Each night I feel that my lover’s heart is beating only for her
But I’m going home

At last we make a move, our chairs a bit closer
I smell her hair and touch her left knee with my hand
A warm pain runs through my heart as she says no lover
Has ever meant very much to her

So long I’ve waited to see her again
And now I don’t know what to do or when
I’m going home
Each night I feel that my lover’s heart is beating only for her
But I’m going home

After closing time I linger by her blue car
Until we finely kiss and she says goodbye
Then she starts her car and she leaves me standing
Alone with my shadow in an empty parkinglot

So long I’ve waited to see her again
And now I don’t know what to do or when
I’m going home
Each night I feel that my lover’s heart is beating only for her
But I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home

I'm Going Home

 ...music developed by my friend Dale Wicks (he's here, but mostly all over music sites, take a listen he's a great performer and writer)HALFWAY TO CRAZY 8-26-2022

Just got off the phone
Hopped in my car
Wheels on the highway
Headed for your heart
A hundred ways to say I’m sorry
Ain’t going to earn me one more try
I could hear those tear drops falling
Before your slamming phone goodbye
Tonight, I’m halfway, halfway to crazy
Just pulling in, on the border of insane
Wish that trucker, would just pull over
He’s taking up, all of heartbreak lane
(pause) I remember that night you said goodbye
You were lying by my side
I should have never made you cry
That moon was shining in your eyes
I remember your kiss and your caress
Till, I forgot my tenderness
Don’t know where I’m headed now
Guess I’ll soon be finding out
Maybe I’m halfway, halfway to crazy
Just pulling in, on the border of insane
I was halfway, halfway to heaven
Only got, got myself to blame
Halfway to heaven
Wish I took a plane
Cause this loneliness, … sure driving me insane
Left me halfway
halfway to all the way all the way to you
But now I’m halfway…tonight I’m halfway to crazy

Thank you from my heart Debbie, for sharing music with me. It`s such a Joy.
The Photo is a meeting in Blue. Harpa Reykjavik, Island.

We will float through the clouds
I look beyond me
And i see you there
The thought is real
So Complete
There is silence
A breath from the Wind
From a distance
I can see

You can find this track also on Youtube where I filmed myself while playing this. https://youtu.be/s5ytA3aeu6w 

I just wanted to try out whether I could do a Boogie. This is the outcome. Hope you like it and it gives you good energy. 

Composition-wise: The left is a consistent 1/8th Boogie base line throughout the piece and typically consisting of a lower chromatic line and an upper constant note (e.g., C0-C1-D0-C1-Eb0-C1-E0-C1). The right hand dances over this with a partly Staccato theme that is loosened up by repeated Syncopes, Delays and advanced notes. The piece starts in a joyous C and modulates over its course to the minor third and ends in the warmer (and for me richer) Eb. 

The track has been recorded on a Roland FP-90.
The Cover art was created with Stable Diffusion which I continue fuddling around with. I think it is already a far jump from my previous „Sheherazades Tale“ Cover art but still not perfect. In particular, I continue to wonder what kind of music might be played with the very peculiar arrangement of white and black keys on the keyboard.

Danc'n On The Low Keys (Solo Piano)

In the enchanting scene of a moonlit night, a young girl immerses herself in the pages of a mystical book, weaving her vivid imagination into a whimsical tale that conjures up playful, skeletal apparitions.

Set to a lighthearted triple-time signature, the piano guides the melody, lending a delightful charm to the composition. Complementing this whimsical journey, the glockenspiel and synthesizer mallet harmoniously dance together, evoking the amusing and endearing image of comical skeletons.
