LYRICS
They say time heals all wounds
That's not something I trust
Time's betrayed me all of my life
Thinking there would always be enough

The light around me is fading 
Goals of yesterday far behind
Life's desire is winding down
New ambition is hard to find

Soon I'll leave for higher ground
Who will help see me through

It's all breaking down around me
This wasn't part of my plan
I never thought that tomorrow
Was something I would outrun

Soon I'll leave for higher ground
Who will help see me through

My time is drawing near
I need you to help see me through
Please sing to me sweet songs of love
I just want to dance away with you

My blue eyes are turning gray
Memories have grown weaker too
I don't care what's left for me
If I can just dance away with you

My time here has drawn to a close
I need you to help see me through
Please whisper to me sweet songs of love
I just want to dance away with you

My blue eyes have turned to gray
Memories no longer seem true
I've got nothing left to give
Except dance away with you

The light has faded away
Nothing left to decide
Please hold me tight and dance with me
As I drift off away by your side

Dance Away With You (demo, Easton, 2024-12-04)

Until Your Heart Believes       Lyrics and music by Mike Dampf © August, 2024         Flute - Becky Sora; Bass - David Leadbitter; Vocals Jerneja Medved and Mike Dampf

I can see you hurt
I can read the signs
You smile through loneliness
like winter sun through the pines
this kind of wound is slow to heal
and I know how it feels

One light is on long before the dawn
a half moon rises and then it's gone
soft wind rustles the willow leaves
dreamless, until your heart believes

I see you nearly every day
your eyes say it all
it's just 'Hello' and then you look away
like you hit some kind of wall
Sure, you're fine, nothing's been revealed
but I know how it feels

Look at me
look at you
we shouldn't be alone anymore

Until Your Heart Believes

Śāriputra’s Awakening

"Śāriputra’s Awakening" is a musical journey inspired by the transformative story of Śāriputra, a disciple of the Buddha, as portrayed in the Lotus Sutra. The song follows Śāriputra’s path from doubt and confusion to profound realization and enlightenment.

The lyrics, based on the Lotus Sutra, trace Śāriputra’s emotional and philosophical journey. From his initial struggles and existential questions to the revelatory moment of understanding the Buddha's "wondrous law," the song captures the essence of his transformation. It also looks forward to Śāriputra’s future destiny as the Buddha Padmaprabha in the realm of Viraga, where the Dharma will flourish for eons to come.

"Śāriputra’s Awakening" is a testament to the power of spiritual insight and the potential for profound personal transformation. It invites listeners to contemplate their own path to wisdom and awakening, bridging ancient teachings with contemporary musical expressions.

Immerse yourself in the soulful, meditative world of "Śāriputra’s Awakening" and let the timeless story of one seeker's journey to enlightenment resonate in your own heart and mind.

[Lyrics:]

[Verse 1]
In caves and woods, I wandered lost
Pondering the teachings, feeling tossed  
Bodhisattvas praised, my heart would ache
Had I missed the path I longed to take?

[Chorus]
But then the Buddha's wisdom shone
Dispelling doubts, my fears all gone  
The wondrous law, profound and true
Awakening in me, a vision new

[Verse 2] 
No more shall Mara's lies deceive
The Buddha's truth, I now perceive  
A destiny so grand unfolds
A future as a Buddha foretold

[Bridge]
In distant kalpas, I shall rise
Padmaprabha, Radiant Lotus wise
In Viraga, a land so pure  
Where Dharma's light will long endure

[Verse 3]
Bodhisattvas gather, jewels abound
In Buddha's wisdom, truth is found
Though counterfeit may someday reign  
The relics cherished will remain

[Verse 3]
Bodhisattvas gather, jewels abound
In Buddha's wisdom, truth is found
Though counterfeit may someday reign  
The relics cherished will remain

[Chorus]
The Buddha's word has set me free
A joyous fate, my eyes now see
Through eons long, the light extends  
Until all beings reach their journey's end

[Outro]
Oh Śāriputra, faithful son  
Your quest for truth has just begun
In Buddha's grace, your soul shall sing
Enlightenment, your gift to bring

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Timeless wisdom teaches, every soul has light,
Through every path, each struggle, and fight.
With hearts wide, embracing the night,
We stand, unite, for what’s just and right.

[Chorus]
Rise together, shine forever, souls of radiant light,
Bound by wisdom, ancient as the night.
In every heart, a fire burning bright,
Together we lift the world, reaching new heights.

[Verse 2]
Compassion shows us its mighty hand,
Urging us forward to take a stand.
On this road where virtue and love expand,
Seekers of peace heal this troubled land.

[Instrumental: A soulful, meditative guitar interlude]

[Chorus]
Rise together, shine forever, souls of radiant light,
Bound by wisdom, ancient as the night.
In every heart, a fire burning so bright,
Together we lift the world, reaching new heights.

[Verse 3]
Timeless wisdom whispers, we’re all one,
Every action bound beneath the sun.
This insight fuels us, it’s just begun,
Promoting peace, where the good is won.

[Bridge]
Whispers in the trees, through the mountain air,
Guiding us to love, to act, to care.
Across the seas, our souls hear the call,
In every kindness, love conquers all.

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Rise together, shine forever, souls of radiant light,
Bound by wisdom, ancient as the night.
In every heart, a fire burning bright,
Together we lift the world, reaching new heights.

[Outro]
Together we rise, we answer the call,
In every act of kindness, love conquers all

The Higher We Fly - Acoustic

I guess it’s always the way I wake up now
With your smile in the frame
The memory of your pain
I go and make it through the day
I don’t know how
And when the picture fades
I call and call your name
And then I pray the earth would turn the other way
That it would bring us back to our carefree early days
I pray like a fool blinded by her grief
But I know better than to believe
I will hold you again

You were the first one to go, I hope you know
That when I close my eyes, I still see your face
I was the last one you saw, there’s one thing I know
We will be us again in a better place

We spent our days together
As if there would be many more
We made up a world
Where love would keep you safe and warm
Where all was well that ends well
And we'd live happily for evermore
And then you went to sleep
As if tomorrow would still come
And now my aching soul can find no peace, no rest
The memory of your smile lies heavy on my chest
I couldn’t say goodbye as our journey together ended,
I held you tight and just pretended
That I would hold you again

You were the first one to go, I hope you know
That when I close my eyes, I still see your face
I was the last one you saw, there’s one thing I know
We will be us again in a better place

Us Again in a Better Place

Us Again in a Better Place (feat. Opaline)

It is my sincere hope that this song helps illuminate your path as it has mine. After all, darkness is only the absence of light and we all live under the same sun. This is Golden Hour. 

Golden Hour (Acoustic)

I grew up in an ethnically diverse neighborhood in the Bronx, NYC, during a period of intense racial tension. Just getting through the day at school was a struggle. I picked up the guitar as a way to stay off the streets, and I found that music was the only thing that could transcend those barriers.  My song “Living on the Wrong Side of Town” is inspired by those early experiences.

When I tried pursuing a degree in music, I ended up switching to computer science instead. I didn’t have the confidence or self-esteem back then, and, to be honest, I didn’t want to struggle. I reflect on those decisions in my song “Making Choices.”

Many years have passed, and I’ve done well for myself. But music has always been a constant, helping me navigate through the hardest times. The difference now is that I have more life to draw from, more stories to tell.

When you write a song and truly connect to it, it becomes a piece of who you are—a reflection of your journey.

If you enjoy these arrangements (demos), please click like or follow me on SoundCloud. All the lyrics are original, and many of these songs were started years ago but only recently completed.  I own the copyrights. 

Additionally, if you’re an experienced singer in the NYC tri-state area and interested in collaborating on recording or performing my music, feel free to reach out.  I have many additional ideas for new songs in the works.
