Hey fam! I'm getting these singles ready for my new EP so be on the lookout! I'm dropping songs left and right! Lol! Hopefully this will make up for my long hiatus. :-) I really appreciate all of your love and support throughout the past 4 years which is why I'm always giving my SoundCloud fam priority over all other platforms. I always drop my tracks here first because you guys are the best, and I'm so happy to have made so many new friends here. Please follow, like, repost and share and stay tuned for more!

This track is a collab with JOZ who made this amazing beat! The story is a lighthearted spin on what a struggle it is to wait for love, especially when you've found 'the one' and you know it is true love. **sigh** Lol! Please enjoy! :-)

The Snow Queen - Gerda and the Fox

DE RETOUR DE CIRRUS MINOR  
SOUS CE BON VIEUX GROS SOLEIL
MA MÉMOIRE ME RESSORT
LES PHOTOS DE LA CORBEILLE

COMME LA LAVE ET LE MAGMA
BAISENT AUX BASES DU VOLCAN
DANS LES BRUMES D’UMMAGUMMA
ON EN A FAIT AUTANT

JE RETROUVE TON JOLI CORPS
TOUS SES PLEINS SES DÉLIÉS
ET NOTRE EX AMOUR À MORT
QUE JE CROYAIS OUBLIÉ

DE RETOUR À CIRRUS MINOR
SUR LES SENTIERS DÉFONCÉS
DES AUBES MULTICOLORES
PAR NOS SENS ALAMBIQUÉES

ET DE MORE À NEVERMORE
LE TEMPS NOUS A VU PASSER
QUE SONT DEVENUS NOS CORPS
ASTRONOMY DOMINE

ET LA LAVE ET LE MAGMA
REJAILLISSENT DU VOLCAN
EMBRASANT LE PANORAMA
ON EN A FAIT AUTANT

LE VOLCAN (Lyrics)

9 Circles - West Goes East

Dont Stop

You doubt that you have me
I can not go on
The world that you want
It's not made for me
You live in your cloud
Tell me why it will be
Manias that you discover
Your personality ...
Let me tell you
Has nothing to do
Your life with mine
And your way of being
Everything that surrounds you


And time passes and each time you get further away
The air that you breathe I can't breathe anymore
If you don't realize it, I'm going to tell you
The world you imagine only exists for you
I feel that ours is approaching the end
That I feel very far from being your ideal boy
If you don't realize it, I'm going to tell you
The world you imagine exists only for you

Let me tell you
Has nothing to do
Your life with mine
And your way of being
Everything that surrounds you
They're shallow, they're shallow
Everything that surrounds you
They are superficial ...

And time passes and each time you get further away
The air that you breathe I can't breathe anymore
If you don't realize it, I'm going to tell you
The world you imagine only exists for you
I feel that ours is approaching the end
That I feel very far from being your ideal boy
If you don't realize it, I'm going to tell you
The world you imagine only exists for you

Superficial

For those that have occasion to think back on "the one that got away". Imagining that other person today, wondering what might have been and what has actually happened over the years since. This wistful, original song is done in traditional folk style with an Irish/Celtic feel. Let your guard down a moment and go with the contemplation, for better or worse, a brief indulgence as Saint Patrick's Day visits us once again...only to drown our lament and fancy in Guinness and whiskey. Many thanks to our good friend Don Hicks for his wonderful bagpiping on this song.

Lyrics:

Darling Where Are You Now  - by Craig Durgy

Where are you now, is it too far away
Will the distance allow, you to say
To say you remember, when there was no doubt
Just an ember, oh where are you now

Have you really forgotten, did you really move on
Did life take you to, where I am gone
Do you sometimes imagine me,  some day some how
Or abandoned me, where are you now

The heart’s a good soldier, as time marches on
But wiser and older, seems wrong
The days melt like candles, but one won’t burn out
As my heart rambles, where are you now

Did the mountain Laurel bloom like a sunrise at noon
Did your eyes shine like light from the moon
Do our promises echo like birds in the clouds
Have you let go, oh where are you now

If we came face to face, would we smile and embrace 
Or has love disappeared with no trace 
When your memory’s near I may, wish you could hear me say 
Darling, oh where are you now

Chances

Darling Where Are You Now

My newest song and arrangement! 😊❤️

Mastered by the lovely and very talented Sander. @wane-of-summer 
Thank you soooo much. 💕🎼

If I could paint a picture 
It would be of you
If I could paint a river
It would flow to you

So I’ll keep thinking along the same lines
Oh I’ll keep thinking in no space or time
Oh I’ll keep thinking along the same lines
Oh I’ll keep moving through no space or time

If I could paint the sky
I would meet you there
If I could paint the ocean
I’d sail your way

Chorus

I see your colours....

ALONG THE SAME LINES

Contenders Lyrics

Kind of an old drunkards lament. Kind of.

Lyrics;
Monday night the bar to myself
One more shot and call it a night
Never noticed the big man in the corner
Who drank in the shadows and kept out of sight

He spoke out of nowhere
Guess he had something to say
Putting down an empty glass
An old scarred face looking my way
And said;

We all are born contenders
With dreams of being champ
The life that you render
Gives you the chance

The bell is rung the day you're born
And it's round one right away
Life will surely test you
Every night and every day

You're gonna feel the blows
Might even knock you down
Pick yourself back up
And fight on for the crown

With that the big man stood
And staggered toward the door
Broken hands held it open
then turned to say one thing more

Yes, I was born a contender
Now I'm a vagabond and tramp
Once a fighter now pretender
Who dreamed he'd be champ

And with that he was gone
And I drank one more shot
As the whiskey went down
I sat there and thought 

There goes a contender
To the night, cold and damp
Then, asked the bartender
One more round, champ?

He smiled and I laughed
It had all seemed absurd
But so heavy in my mind
Were the weight of those words

We all are born contenders ...

Contenders
