About:
This song is about Lake Pleasant in the Adirondack mountains in upstate New York (USA). We visit almost every year for summer vacation. Sometimes, when the weather is just right, it really is the most beautiful place. I just with they had a Marriot ;-))

"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

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.
