Rock Guitar Instrumental with a World vibe.

No Time Like Now

written and performed by Jennifer Foss and Bob Porri

These Walls I feel them closing in
As I wonder where you've been
Every shiver every tremble
Breaking down this fragile temple

Every wall around me leaning
My heart beats without meaning
I hear the words you weave
The words I wish I could believe

These hallowed walls
are clinging to the hope
that you will stay
Protect me now

I hold a compass in my hand,
As I leave these walls
I'll never know, if you're on the other side.
Please be on the other side
Please be my hope
You are my only hope

These Hallowed Walls

Walking through the fire
Feel like I'm on the sun
Or am I in hell
Would make more sense
Cause I'm wild one

Don't need no healing 
Can't turn this thing around
I got a feeling
It's about to go down

CHORUS:
Oh whoaoh
Oh whoaoh
Oh whoaoh
Devil walk with me
Oh whoaoh
Oh whoaoh
Oh whoaoh
Devil walk with me
 
Time's flying by
And I've got nothing to show
But the scars I laid
All over my bones
Don't need no healing 
Still got a feeling

CHORUS

It's Time

Time, It’s time
Time we’re movin’ on down the line
Gone, long gone
Past the things we did and haven’t done
Every choice we hand select
Here we are with no regret
Now it’s time to push ahead
Ahead

Everything that’s ever done
Morning to the setting sun
Opens doors so we can run
We can run

More, much more
Finding hidden treasure in the core
Caught up in
Waiting for the change that will begin

Everything that’s ever done
Morning to the setting sun
Opens doors so we can run
We can run/Running on

We can run
We can run away
We can run
It’s time

Instrumental

Everything that’s ever done
Morning to the setting sun
Opens doors so we can run
Everything that’s ever done
Morning to the setting sun
Opens doors so we can run
Everything that’s ever done
Morning to the setting sun
Opens doors so we can run
We can run

It's Time (with Michelle Leverette)

Hearts Beating

Verse
We're constellations of stars
Fireflies fading in jars
Holding on to the spark
Fighting against the dark

Verse
We're standing on the edge
The warnings have been read
We've got to pull this thread
Rejecting what we've been spoon fed 

Chorus
We're one note of a never-ending song
A chorus of hearts beating strong 
This life it strings us along
(you gotta) Sing loud (un)til the music's gone 

Verse
We're the beats of a wild heart
They're afraid we'll take it too far
Here the lies are broken and scarred
We stand and fight as your guard

Chorus
We're one note of a never-ending song
A chorus of hearts beating strong 
This life it strings us along
(you gotta) Sing loud (un)til the music's gone

Feel the height in your lungs
Rushing over whatever may come
Called up by the sun
Toes touching clouds

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

The dirt cracks and falls off you
Crumbles in your hand as you break through
Part of you wants to stay 
and part of you wants to go

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

Tame the Sky (with Jennifer Foss)

The Fire

The fire in our eyes,
took us by surprise,
thought we were wise,
didn’t realize.

Love fed the fire,
companioned by desire,
nights never tired,
charmed by the choir.

We were waiting.
Separating.
Cooling takes me.

Time told us lies,
said our tears would dry,
despite our disguise,
couldn’t hide the cries.

We were waiting.
Separating.
cooling takes me.

The Fire

if you’re the ocean, i’m a swimmer
but i’m a weak one, that's for sure
if you’re the ocean, i’m a winner
but i’m feeling lost and here comes a storm 

I’m in the deep dark water
I can barely swim
I can feel the sharks passing
It’s getting grim

I’m in the deep dark water
I can barely breathe
Now I take my last breath
is this the last of me
(repeat)

if you’re the ocean, i’m a sinner
and i’m the weak one, that’s for sure
if you’re the ocean, as the lights get dimmer
but im’ feeling lost and here come the waves

I’m in the deep dark water
I can barely swim
I can feel the sharks passing
It’s getting grim

I’m in the deep dark water
I can barely breathe
Now I take my last breath
is this the last of me
(repeat)

I’ll Always Choose You

I will go and you will follow
Endlessly we'll walk through shadows
Here in this space in between
 
Hearts won't mend, but I won't shatter
Firm in hand the hope everafter
Here in this space in between

Chorus
I'll always choose you
The stories not yet written in view

Come what may I'll take it on
No rock unturned or path untraveled
Here in this place unseen

Don't hold back I want it all
Blood and sweat, the tears that fall
Here in this place unseen

Come on heart, this is what you've waited for
So breathe in deep
The new found air

I'll Always Choose You (with Jennifer Foss)

Thanks for all of the recent follows, comments, likes and reposts. I am doing my best to check out your music also, comment, like, follow and repost in many cases. I like artists being creative in any way they can, so forgive my wide range of reposts. 

I grew up on 60's and 70's Rock, Pop, Classic Rock, Psychedelic and Fusion Music. A number of Rock and original Rock bands followed. I also played regular gigs as part of a duo with a flute player (one of my best for life friends, Ed). Of course, we did a bunch of Tull songs as well as Classic Rock and originals with the duo and in our bands.

Before and during my college Music Education, I had taken up Classical Guitar. That was during the day. At night I was playing in a Disco Band. In later years, I reunited with Ed, and formed a Tull tribute band. A number of years later, I was playing Pedal Steel Guitar and guitar in an all original band (Thunderegg) that had a number of nice gigs in Connecticut and New York City.

Over the past 10-15 years, I've been focusing on writing and recording original music. Due to my background, I am spread over quite a few genres and many times that is driven by a collaborator.  I have been collaborating with a lot of great people. I'm one of 3 Bobs who formed an internet band called 3bobrock. We tend to pull from a Pink Floyd sound and other sources for our original music.  My most recent regular collaborations are with Jennifer Foss, a wonderful singer of many styles who also has a lot of great ideas as a cowriter. Several of our recent songs are favorites on our Soundcloud pages. Jen and I continue to work together and are looking forward to writing and recording much more together. We go by the band name Blue Scorpion.

I've also done a good deal of co-writing and recording with Michelle Davis Leverette over the last several years. We are hitting the Blues Rock genre quite a bit. Michelle is another great vocalist and writer who is great to work with. We go by the band name Quarter Turn.

I have a number of tracks with Briand Melonson (Bamtone). Yes, another great writer and vocalist. We tend to aim at Alternative Rock and some Americana.

Other artists I've enjoyed co-writing and recording with the last several years are Amanda West, Ethan Freckleton, Marcus Mittila, Steven Guiles, Bill Perry, Louise Goldberg, Michelle Murray, Halley Ewell, JenaVieve Reed, Mladen Domic and Belinda Coomes. I apologize because I'm sure I've forgotten to mention a few others

I am also always working on creating music for possible film, tv and advertising use. Therefore, among the tracks you find on my pages will be some shorter instrumental cues. My "New Tracks" Album page is where I put new favorites.

Some of my tracks are available for purchase and download. You are always welcome to stream and listen for free here.

Finally, my website, bobporrimusic.com., may be of interest to you. I'm a full time musician, songwriter, and guitar instructor. There is a good deal of free material (video guitar instruction, scales, chords, jam tracks etc.) on my website. I appreciate any interest, comments, emails etc.  I am also am a Guitar Coach for the Guitar Tricks website with a number of online "classes" each week.
