This distance has grown, and it's all I can do to forget you
in my own way
For I can, be the person that you need me to be 
so I just wanted to say

Oh the things I would do for you  2x

So lonely it hurts, but it's the price you pay
for avoiding pain
So lonely it hurts, but still I wait 
for you to call my name

Oh the things I would do for you  2x

So lonely it hurts
Oh the things I would do for you
Just ask me too

nah nah nah nah nah nah

All We Are

dreaming 
in detail
as we go on 
with this scene
for too long
i have been buried
by a cover of illusion
for too long
well, the sound of your name
brings me back
to a real state
for your joy
it is reflecting
and confusing
dreaming in detail
dreaming
well, we are dreaming
in detail

Everybody has a plan
Until they get punched in the face
Everybody thinks they can
Until they can’t finish the race
I used to think I had plenty of time
To get it right
But there’s no way to slow down
The relentless, endless night
We’ll spend the rest of
Our lives growing old
We’ll spend the rest of
Our lives growing old
But tonight, we’re still young
But tonight, we’re still young

Tonight We're Still Young

Your Corners Curve Like Lemonade
By David Husted

Your Corners Curve Like Lemonade Sun Drops    
Melting on an ocean's horizon   

I Wipe the mud from my knees
over madness
The windows are weeping as I lay dreaming 
Of stranded Islands
Empty and stripped clean


Ohhh… Your corners curve like lemonade
Zoo keepers  open up in their cages 
Bubble gum wrappers floating flames flickering orange    
We're  Basking in an almost; Ireland and Italy in Brooklyn

V2
Einstein and Heisenberg in parliament
Embers proliferating magic
Thriving through the time fields sucking information from the cosmos
Our very constitutions dust and water; 
Gold and oil on the alter now;  be a ghost to this chatter
Plot our lives in advance,……….     Of the rising sands

Ch
Ohhh… Your corners curve like lemonade
Zoo keepers  open up in their cages now
Bubble  gum wrappers floating flames flickering orange    
We're  Basking in an almost; Ireland and Italy in Brooklyn

Bridge

We will not Run
We will not run

The Chorus has a psychedelic vibe to it but with its own unique twists and turns.  I tried not to box myself into corners with my lyrics and used a very open ended process to my word smithing.  I felt know need to present you anything too "air-tight" in terms of story or arrangement.  This is what I love about song writing. I toss up ideas (the crazier the better) and see what happens.  Once I have a kaleidoscope of working pieces I gently mold them into forms that contain loose tendrils of cohesiveness and meaning but only just barely.  This is one of those song's I created with no preconceptions or creative borders and I just let my mind go where it wanted to.  Sometimes this works and sometimes it is a disaster.  In this case I arrived at something I liked enough to share with you.  

Never mind that Dave, what is the song about?  

It has something to do with the excruciating beauty of a sunrise.  It has something to do with love.  It has something to do with how quickly time moves forward.  It has something to do with how impermanent everything really is (including us).  It has something to do with how lucky we are to be the tiniest spark of a flame witnessing this miracle before us for the most minuscule parenthesis in time.  It has something to do with stepping out of my self imposed cage, and yet not running away and hiding.  It has something to do with staring this beautiful, wild catastrophe of existence right in the face and enjoying the ride.   Far Out Dude. Now go put your favorite tie dye shirt on, grab a cup a coffee and listen to my song : )!   Groovy Man…..Will Do!  

May your corners curve like lemonade.

Sometimes I miss my beloved Gibson SG so much, at least for the solos, but don't tell to my current partner, a sweet acoustic Yamaha , which also has given me so much.
I would like to dedicate this song to the memory of Gregory Grey, aka Marycigarettes, a fabulous artist and a kind person.

OpenE-Blues(My Blues Lesson)

So relieved to have a new leader taking over in the USA who has empathy and compassion for all Americans and wants to help get our country united and well again. 
This is a humble version of my favorite song.
Imagine!
Love y'all!
