always enjoy your real music and fab harmonies..

Great songwriting Craig.Great recording with Nat.

Wonderful songwriting. Arrangement, vocals,melody,production,lyrics,instruments. This is a full package for me. Lovely.

Great lyrics.  ...and awesome vocals as always.

Great concept for this beautiful love song, beautiful just beautiful.

Undertow is an original song that tells a story by making an analogy between being taken away by a surprising, frightening ocean undertow and being wonderfully saved by a surprising, relentless love. This is another project that started with a simple live recording that Nat then fashioned into a more polished final outcome.

Lyrics: Undertow by Daniels & Durgy

I never saw it coming
The water seemed so calm
Into the surf I’m running
Let the waves just cool me down

But as the sea became me
Rocked gently to and fro
There came this rush to claim me
This playful undertow

I leaned well against it
My head turned toward the sun
But soon the current strengthened
And I was going down

No matter how I struggled
The mighty depths insisted
Soon I had no rebuttal 
My will ceased to resist it

And as I let it claim me
Pulled down deep into the foam
A calmness overcame me
With the feeling I was home

I looked to see my fate there
Perhaps I’d met my end
Instead I found your face there
An angel and my friend

And as we both just floated
To rise up to the air
I knew at once God wrote it
That you would save me there

I fought it like a soldier
As the waters turned
But as the sea grew colder
I’d no where else to turn

You sang the song of sea birds
That you would not let me go
And now your love needs no words
This mighty undertow

Undertow

Two song writers, two kindred spirits... that found each other by pure happenstance and great fortune, to collaborate and create music together.
