Our utmost thanks to Doug Roossien for allowing us to fly free on this beautiful song he wrote, and allowing us to change some of the lyrics and nuances to fit in with our style..  We'd also like to give our profound thanks to Joel Harkin for his amazing Pedal Steel contribution.

Lyrics: 

Silent…tears are falling  
Raining teardrops… that call your name  
Darlin’… you stopped listening  
And I can’t reach you… or see you again  
And as the teardrops start to fall,  
Each one a hammer on the floor 
I hope that someday you will hear 
 A single silent tear

Days turn nights.. So all alone  
What kind of fool would turn and go?  
And I keep staring at the phone  
(Darling I'm sitting here at home...)
Wishing you’d call and say hello  
(Oh babe I miss you so..)
But as the teardrops start to fall, 
Their silence broken on the floor  
I hope that someday you will hear  
A single… silent tear

Oh Maybe you’ll forgive me  
Somehow not forget me…  Baby please…
(Can you forgive me too.. Oh baby)
And Oh Maybe you’ll remember
The way we felt together 
And come back to me..
… come back to me.. 
(come back to me...)

Oh Silent…tears are falling  
Wishing you and I could start again  
But Baby… time has taken over    
(My sweet baby)(My sweet Angel)
And I know we’ll never be the same 
(Baby please don't say it's so..)
 'Cause As the teardrops start to fall, 
Their silence broken on the floor 
 I hope that someday you will hear  
A single silent tear 
Oh I hope that someday you will hear  …
A single… silent tear 

Baby please.. can you hear each tear call your name..
(Baby please... oh baby i can hear each tear)
Baby please.. This is the one day I will hear..
A single silent tear..

Single Silent Tear

Words and Music Dave Rose
A song about feeling like the world is passing you by.
Reloaded 01/04/24 Previously had far too much reverb and compression so sounds a little drier and clearer now.
Lyrics 
Something has to change I can’t carry on like this 
I’m like the disappearing man, I’ll disappear without a trace 

And I feel like driftwood washed up on a shore 
Like something forgotten in the bottom of a drawer 

So I marched to the beat of a different drum 
But the beat it never changed 
I tried to sing a different song 
But the song remained the same 

And I feel like driftwood washed up on a shore 
Like something forgotten in the bottom of a drawer 

But it might not be too late and maybe I can start again….

Start Again

Words and Music Dave Rose
Photo Hadrians Wall at Walltown Crags looking west.
Another very rainy day here today so did this. I had it in mind for a while.
A little enquiry.
A gospel choir would be nice on this.
Lyrics 

Excuse me can you hear me lord, you won’t have heard from me before
It’s not that I don’t believe as such
But I never usually pray and I’m not one for church 

Well I’m not looking for salvation 
I don’t think I need confession 
But I could use a little guidance through this existence…..

Guidance

Words and Music Dave Rose
Another remix and reload.

Lyrics
Bought myself a ticket and boarded a train
Took one look back at this town and told myself I'll never be back again

But I'll be coming home soon
Coming home to you
I've been away far too long

So gone are the days of longing for home
And gone are the nights of talking to my pillow

So I'll be coming home soon
Coming home to you
I've been away far too long
So I'm coming home

The grass is never greener than the green green grass of home
The air will seem cleaner and smell sweeter somehow
Home is where the heart is I believe that is true
And absence makes the heart grow fonder well I hope that's true too

So I'm coming home, coming home to you
I've been away far too long......

Coming Home Soon

Dear friends,
so much dangerous junk they send out every day during these wars!!
They should be thoroughly ashamed! It is dangerous for people, animals and the climate. So much hate that exists today! And the hatred and violence is also increasing in the Middle East! So sad! Everyone should really sit down and think about what they are doing. Dear rulers of the world - war is not a game!!

Cultivating

they want to cultivate their land
but it ain’t so easy since
they live in the east    -     near the border of
the invading country - which pumps out a lot of scrap
in the fields where our friends want to see that the 
grain is growing up - they have never asked for the war

There are people in Africa
who long for grain from Ukraine
they starve to death.      -    while waiting for the ships   
which can’t sail away -  from the coast in the Black Sea
since there are evil forces who threatens the
crews on the ships who want to help those in need.

It is so dangerous
to cultivate the land in Ukraine
the tractor can hit.   -     mines and bombs everywhere
and if the small children. -   want to play on the ground
they may loose their legs or if they still will sur-
vive from these wounds their future lives will be hell

Cultivating (lyrics in English in description below)

Swept Away


That day that we first met
From a time I can't forget
Babe you quickly took control
You reached deep into my soul

I was nothing very cool
Just your average silly fool
Wondered what you saw in me
Another hopeless charity?

Swept away

I felt it instantly
Some have called it destiny
I could see no one but you
In an instant I was through

You knocked me off my feet
So much power yet so sweet
Your love scrambled up my brain
I went happily insane

So swept away
Swept away
Nothing else to say

So sweetly swept away

A light with style and grace
And that classic lovely face
With your striking gentle smile
Stalking my heart all the while

You've a way I can't describe
So forgive this diatribe
This moment comes along one time
So historic yet sublime

I never had a chance
My whole world just went askance
You know exactly what you've done
Blotted out the Summer's sun

You have shredded my lost heart
Tore my past life all apart
Oh God please just let her see
That for her it's only me

So swept away
Swept away
Nothing left to say
I am swept away
Swept away
Swept away

Babe I love your way

I am swept away

So sweetly swept away

Swept Away

I sang this this song on a funeral some time ago. I've never heard it before, but I really liked it and became quite obsessed as I learned  how to play it. Anyway, this is my soundcloud rendition, a bit different to the original I guess. But I hope you like it.

Dancing In The Sky - Dani and Lizzy cover

Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain

This one top the charts at #21 in 1973 by Jerry Wallace.  Another one of his tunes that I really love.  Some fantastic writing back then.  A lot of meaning today.

The Song Nobody Sings

Retired musician .  Just writing a few simple songs about
life and growing old.  Song about my childhood on a
Louisiana delta farm.  Most songs were written and composed by me on my Boss  BR8 Digital Recording Studio.  Hope to complete my first CD soon.  I have a few cover songs also.
