Recorded live for a YouTube video. Overdubbed more vocal tracks later on. 

Lyrics: 
In the country...
In the city...
Anywhere we are is right for me

In the morning...
In the evening...
Of you there never is to much to see

ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh (etc)

Like the heavens...
High above me...
You bring the brightness to a darker sea

You may notice...
How deep you touch me...
No other person means as much to me

ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh (etc)

(outro)
Yes in the country...
Or in the city...
Anywhere we are is right for me

In the morning...
In the evening...
Of you there never is to much to see

"In The Mountains" Lyrics:

I wake up early in the mountains...
First light shines across the lake
The early morning fog is lifting...
The peace is there for me to take

I watch the old boats as they glide by...
Men with peace upon their face
They're not thinking 'bout the old days...
Must be the magic in this place

I watch the children play beside me...
Building castles in the sand
You can feel the joy among them...
Part of the wonder of this land

In the evening when the Sun's down...
A million stars up in the sky
I can only look with wonder...
I even feel a little high

I woke up early in the mountains...
First light shone across the lake
The early morning fog had lifted...
The peace was there for me to take

Always Introspective

Lyrics:
I don’t know what you’re feeling...
I can’t know your pain
I don’t have the right words...
I can’t ease your rains

And I’ll always be by your side
I’ll never leave you behind

II.
I did not live your past...
I don’t know why the haunting lasts
But when those clouds come rolli’n in...
We’ll go through them thick or thin

And I’ll always be by your side
I’ll never leave you behind
I’ll always be by your side
I’ll never leave you behind

"By Your Side"  - by Chris Martin Music with GATE57

Many thanks to Marc Bauman of House Recording Studios for his excellent work, patience, and attention to every detail while producing this song.

Lyrics: 
Stand with me ... when I'm afraid...
By my side ... when I need your aid

Stand by me ...
Stand by me

Hold me close ... when I'm losing faith...
Don't let go .. of your warm embrace

Stand by me ...
Stand by me

Take the lead ... when I'm feeling lost...
You're what I need ... to stay the course

Stand by me ...
Stand by me

Hold my hand ... don't let go...
The only warmth ... I may ever know

Stand by me ...
Stand by me ...
Stand by me ...
Stand by me

Always introspective

STIR MY HEART
lyrics & vocal melody- http://soundcloud.com/gnetsound
music & backing vocals- http://soundcloud.com/nj-apostol

Heavenly Father
I'm down on my knees
I'm asking forgiveness
For all the things that I've done

For all of the heartaches
And all of the shame
For all of the sorrow
And unwanted pain that I've given you (hmm)


Stir my heart ( Heavenly Father) to remember your name
(Heavenly father) Seek for your words, your mercy & grace
Never let go (never let me stray away)
Did you hear my pray, that I've given you 
Heavenly Father ( will you hear my pray)

Stir my heart- gnetsound original & nj apostol (version 3)now with lyrics

About me: 
I was born and raised on Long Island, NY. I'm a singer-songwriter as I enjoy writing my own songs most. I play acoustic guitar and the harmonica. My style of music is Contemporary Folk and Singer-Songwriter. The decade of music that most influenced my music taste is the 70's. Most influenced by Neil Young.  

I like to write songs from the heart. I want to express how I feel about past experiences, about current events, and just about anything else that really moves me in some meaningful way.  I hope that you "feel" what my songs are about too when you listen to them.
