Really nice sounding track with great introspective lyrics

great song, like the liquid melancholy…

Awesome studio version CW. I always enjoy the melancholy in your music and there is always a great musical theatre vibe. Keep them coming CW! Reposted!

Super lyrics man....pasage of time, or maybe growing older?   Love the big horn / synth emerging in the outro - reminds me of Pat Metheny.

Wonderful voice and instruments!! Perfect sounds!!

Gefressene Jäger

The time for parting will come for everyone someday. A relative of mine suddenly passed away. They lived far away, but they were such a kind person. I offer this track with both sadness and respect, like offering flowers at a funeral.

To Lay Flowers (Requiem)

Recorded home studio and completed at Amplified Studios, Carlsbad CA, July/August 2025
Lead guitar : Fog City Fogey
Mix/Master: Marc Polit of Amplified Studios 

LYRIC

Where once I found delight
Reached out and held it tight
I nod in passing
Nothing here is lasting
Let cherry blossoms fall

They will return next spring
That’s the important thing
Falling from each limb
And though I’m not there to see them
They will still be seen
And though I’m not there to join you
Please raise a cup or two for me

Where once the world spun round
But we could hold our ground
Now we go whirling
Tumbling and twirling
No railing we can grasp 
We hear others calling
Fumbling and falling
Every breath a gasp
But we can’t stop for someone else 
We have to save ourselves

Where once time trickled by
Now it goes streaming/speeding by
And we’re swept away….




where once...

My mistake

Always looking to collaborate with Jeff and this time MJ-Brewer jumped into the deep end with us.  Did the music first based on a really pretty guitar line Jeff sent.  Mark laid down some bass and I filled in the rest.  It wasn't until Jeff added the lyrics and vocal that we knew it was done. Added the mix and that was that.  We'll have a cool video for this one soon.  Jeff has been exploring stop motion animation and has already put together some cool scenes.


lyrics by Jeff Gardiner

there's really nothing left to say
but i'm going to say it anyway
thought i heard a whisper of the truth
but it didn't matter like i thought it might

Could have been an echo or the humming of a sharpened blade of steel
sliding in the rails of Revolution, the hounds are on the loose, they're on the trail.
The inhabitants are stark raving mad, this is documented well-

Fallen back to when the Radio played Paradise
falling into you, falling into you, i can't stop,i can't stop
i can't stop falling down the rabbit hole of passionate replys
i didn't even know, i didn't even know
that i was broken
till i found some bits of me, lying in a dusty field, in a fever dream
just this side of town...

every time he turns around,he doesn't even know what he is feeling disconnected from
he only finds that he is further down the purgatory path
still hoping for some Reverie
even though it's no longer free
but just this Now in the evening's quiet Twilight
all concerns appear as superficial, like she said,"the more i learn, the less i know" and i concur--

I Concur w/ Stonerjazz and MJ-Brewer

Lyrics:

In your house you want to feel like home
If you can't feel it
You don't want to be there!
On your sofa you want to feel relaxed
If you can't feel it
You don't want to be there!

Mmm...Mmm...Mmm...Mmm

In your kitchen you want to make food
If you can't do it
You don't want to be there!
On a plate you want to serve something good
If it's not good
You don't want to serve it!

Mmm...Mmm...Mmm...Mmm...

In your bedroom you want to get some sleep
If you can't sleep
You don't want to be there!
In your bed you want to feel good
If you can't feel it
You don't want to be there!

Mmm...Mmm...Mmm...Mmm...

You Dont Want To Be There (Original)

BIO: I started writing songs in high school (1969-1973!) and I've pretty much never stopped. These are mostly solo recording projects (my brother, Fog City Fogey, contributes sometimes).  I don't do much self-promotion, not a fan of Repost Exchange etc, so all of you who find this page and like a song or two - you are truly appreciated!

where once...
