An intriguing sad yet cheerful obituary I can't help but like.

A great tribute to a great artist from another……. you got that magic in your songs too Dag, just like he did👍

The world is mourning the loss and you have so eloquently honored him here Dag!

The perfect send off from one fabulous songwriter to another.

Can´t shake the feeling of emptiness and the lack of self worth.  

Just me, myself and I on this track. Hope its ok and thanks for dropping by!

Peter`s own words :
"I am blessed with a treasured friend whose name is Sue.

Sue is the very embodiment of humanity. Kind, selfless, giving, loving, unassuming, warm, smiling, understanding. Were you lucky enough ever to meet Sue, you’d never know that she carries a heavy burden carefully, and gently tucked away in a very private place within her heart.

This song is for Sue, and all mothers who, like her, have lost a son in the most tragic of circumstances, with no opportunity to help, hold, comfort or say goodbye."

Solace


When first you nestled in my arms and my eyes met with yours

A bonding fused in love, that could never be undone.

Sheltered you from harm as childhood lightly ran its course

Giving thanks to God above for the blessing you’d become.



Of your blossoming maturity I watched with glowing pride

Reaching for your touch to find that now we’re worlds apart,

Stolen by fate’s cruelty, that wrenches yet inside

Ever present in my mind, forever in my heart



As angels wrapped in heaven, soon our eyes shall meet and then

In the sanctity of peace we’ll find solace once again.



And now I live by memory tides that flood tomorrow’s shore

Your image resting in my palm, lifts my spirit gently, where,

The strongest, warmest love abides and shall do evermore

A love bestowing soothing calm upon my silent prayer.



Though the space between is wide as the celestial abyss

I keep a special place aside, from which I promise only this

As angels wrapped in heaven, soon our eyes shall meet and then

In the sanctity of peace we’ll find solace once again.

Solace. 1234567890. Oddrun Eikli.

MELTING SNOW - IDAN SABAN 

I thought I had you wrapped around my fingers 
Like a song I played with worn-out strings
 I thought I held you in a safe place
 Like a flame that winter couldn't touch
 I thought I had you there forever  

Where did you go? 
I don’t know 
You slipped through my hands 
Like melting snow I remind myself
 To let myself go 
And breathe again 
And let it go

  I traced your name on windows in the rain
 Thought time would bring you back again
 But silence answered every prayer 
And all that's left is empty air  
Like a promise carved in wood
Way more than I knew I could
Like a promise carved in wood
 Way more than I knew I could
Like a promise carved in wood
 Way more than I knew I could  

Where did you go?
 I don’t know 
You slipped through my hands 
Like melting snow 
Like melting snow
 Like melting snow 
Like melting snow

Melting Snow (new song)

Scary Night

a quickie downstairs while we are busy obliterating ourselves ................theres still peace on the moon.......for now..........peace, and cheers for the listen


frost under foot in the morning
another cold afternoon
thinking how the tides are guided at night
by the hand of the moon

words are sometimes not needed
some things are spoken to soon
but you can't take them back again
like you can't steal the moon

hold tight, anything can happen now
they want to send us all to our doom
fighting for what on this little speck of dust
under the eye of the moon

the seasons will go on without us
life will continue to bloom
some things are just meant to be here
forever like the moon

time moves fast without warning
welcome to the winter of june
sometimes i wish i could fly away
into the arms of the moon

Hi Everyone!
This is a simple and cheerful song for our dog named Waldek who is a fan of music and especially country music! 🍀

Of course, I also love country vibe (especially Johnny Cash !!!) and use this musical heritage, but here I certainly don’t play in this style. 
Fortunately, Waldek liked this song! 🔆

Hope you enjoy the vibe! 
Thanks a lot for listening and support!
Artur
