The Summers Over So Where Do We Stand?

Recorded with a Takamine acoustic guitar (Edward) and a laptop in my little basement studio...............

A few months ago I came across an acoustic musician named Jon Gomm playing his song 'Passion Flower'. What this gentleman could do with a guitar was simply amazing!
Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY7GnAq6Znw
His use of the instrument in unconventional ways to produce music inspired me to really start from scratch, practicing every way I could think of to produce sound from the guitar.
The most challenging part has been adding in percussive beats while playing and learning to play up and down the neck overhand while all the fingerings are backward.............This is my first stab at pulling together everything I have been playing with for the past month into a song. Hope you like it ;-)

"In The End"

Why do we wait to say
What we want to say
Would it really matter anyway
Why do we wait to see 
Who we want to see
Are we really that busy anyway

In the end
What we were fighting for
Won't matter anymore
In the end
What will become of us
Just a pile of dust
In the end
Back where we all begin
All alone again
In the end

Why do we wait to be 
What we want to be
Would it really matter anyway
Why do we wait to go
Where we want to go
Are we really that busy anyway

In the end
What we were fighting for
Won't matter anymore
In the end
What will become of us
Just a pile of dust
In the end
Back where we all begin
All alone again
In the end


In The End

Embers Of Red

Recorded with a Takamine Acoustic guitar (Edward) and a laptop in my little home studio...........

I wrote this song for a dear friend that has been going through a hard time and has been on my mind a great deal lately...........No words on this one.......just my feelings expressed through the guitar...........Smile :-)

I originally wrote "Bloom" as an instrumental about the different seasons of life. I cannot begin to express how much it means to me that Fa found beauty in the music and has added so much more through her wonderful words and voice!!! Thank you so much!!!

“Bloom”
One step at a time
First to learn to fall
One step at a time
Before you learn to walk

Look at me, on my new bicycle
Look at me, I am the king of the world
Kissed Knees from pebbles on the ground
I’m getting older if I don’t cry, and I smile
I’m growing up like a bloom into the light

Then to learn to dance in the sunlight
A few stolen kisses in the shade
I’m growing up with the love that I’ve met
I’m growing up in the laughter, in the pain
No matter if the tears are flooding the sand
Which feeds me

One step in time 
One step in time
One step in time
One step in time
I want to dance in the sunlight

Look at me now I’m old and faded
Look at me….in my eyes, the past so far away
I underwent so many thunderstorms
Now I’m older, no I don’t cry……..I’m reborn
I don’t want to wilt like a bloom into the dark

Where's My Love - Alternate Version

On My Way Home

Written in a hotel room in Austin, Texas and recorded in my small home studio using a Fender Acoustic guitar (Lucy) through a Fishman Loudbox and Fender Acoustisonic amplifiers.

I was recently back on the road with a stop in Austin Texas........checked into room #1601 at the downtown Hilton and being completely exhausted, I crashed for the night. Around 2:00am I woke up to the blinding street lights below shining through the window. As I crawled out of bed to close the curtains I noticed to my left was the State Capitol building surrounded by all the downtown buildings and trappings of "Success" while to my right was the highway overpass, under which a single homeless gentleman was sleeping wrapped in a blanket on the concrete support of the bridge.
Such a stark contrast of situations and at the same time, here we were on opposite sides of the glass but both yearning for home.
I picked up my guitar and this song came out as I watched over this man through my window pane that night..........16 floors over his bridge, but both homeless...............

"16 Floors"
Can you see me here
Staring down from this window
From this window pane
I can see your pain
Does your family know where you are
Or do they even care
You sleep on concrete pillows
In your worn out clothes
Is it cold tonight
Will you be alright

16 floors over your bridge
I’m watching over you tonight
16 floors over your bridge
Blinded by the street lights
16 floors over your bridge
We’re both homeless tonight

Is it luck or a twist of fate
Do we even know 
Another time, another place
You could be my own shadow
Well it seems we’re both drifting
One nothing, other everything
But it doesn’t even matter
Both still searching for something
Does it seem cold tonight
Will we be alright

16 floors over your bridge
I’m watching over you tonight
16 floors over your bridge
Blinded by the street lights
16 floors over your bridge
We’re both homeless tonight

16 floors over your bridge
I’m watching over you tonight
16 floors over your bridge
Blinded by the street lights
16 floors over your bridge
We’re both homeless tonight

Again

Recorded live at the Marriott Hotel in Pittsburgh, PA on September 12, 2016
Guitar: Martin 000X1AE Custom X Series (Katherine)

Lavender originated in a very personal way. This past Christmas, our middle daughter Kelley had asked for an easel with some canvases and paints. After breakfast on Christmas day I was working on a new piece of music with a new guitar as she set up to paint on the other side of the room. Over the next couple of hours her painting developed into a beautiful tree with purple leaves and as I watched her paint, the lyrics for the song I was working on begin to form. In the end we will never know how the developing music may have inspired her painting in the same way the developing painting inspired the lyrics, but this song and my daughter's painting are forever intertwined. This beautiful painting now hangs on my bedroom wall and is the first thing I see every morning when I wake up! "An empty canvas is all the color that you need, and you can be anything you want to be"..................................

"Lavender"
An empty canvas
Is all the color that you need
And you can be
Anything you want to be
So close your eyes 
And tell me what you see
If you could be
Anything
Hmmm……..As for me

I see lavender in your smile
And I hear laughter
I haven’t heard in a while
Of all the colors you could be
Feels like lavender to me
So paint your picture
Hang it on the wall
Tell your story
No Boundaries at all
Endless colors of what you could be
Feels like Lavender to me

We all start this life
Out in Black and White
And we can be
Anything we choose to be
So close your eyes
And tell me what you see
If we could be
Anything
Hmmm.......As for me

I see lavender in your smile
And I hear laughter
I haven’t heard in a while
Of all the colors you could be
Feels like lavender to me

I see lavender in your smile
And I hear laughter
I haven’t heard in a while
Of all the colors you could be
Feels like lavender to me
So paint your picture
Hang it on the wall
Tell your story
No Boundaries at all
Endless colors of what you could be
Feels like Lavender to me

Smells like lavender to me
Tastes like lavender to me
Sounds like lavender to me
Feels like lavender to me

LYRICS:
The sun will one day grow cold 
Light will slowly fade away 

The noise in time will be still 
Love lost in the decay 

With the wind in my hair and the windows down I lost my cares 
And the world outside is so full of life I lose my fears 

Life's too short to sit around and wait 
Take a chance and live in the moment 

With the wind in my hair and the windows down I lost my cares 
And the world outside is so full of life I lose my fears 

We will return back from where we came 
Floating Through Space 
Floating Through Space

Fleeting Light

Song from Outlines EP

LOOKING GLASS:

Saw you and then my eyes closed
I'm looking for the girl through the looking glass
Oh so cold
Stood still and though of maybe going back
I'm lonely and the sky must be turning black
Oh so cold

Well you know it's right
When you sleep tonight
Think about her in your head, in your head
Well she's out of sight
Your vision's losing you
You can't see her anymore, anymore.

Things change but I'm the one remembering
Myself and I is all that's left of me
Oh so cold

I'm past, the future's still in front of me
I'm back to how it all came to be
Oh so old

Well you know it's wrong
But you'll stay along
You take comfort in the breeze, in the breeze
And the sky has gone
The clouds have passed you by
Sit, don't think but wonder why, wonder why.
