I realize now that this isn't a fragment or incomplete thought - this is it. This is the refrain that travels through me when I think about my late husband, Victor. We were soul-mates. 14 years wasn't quite enough. I miss him. 

<3<3<3

All I ever wanted
Was to see you
See you by my side for the rest of my life
All I ever wanted
All I ever cared to see in you 
Was the best of you and everything you do, lo --
Everything you do, lo..

[Liner notes - cubase trickery - chord track based on the organ track, Pflex arpeggio for the chord-track generated guitar picking, all harmony voices were initially auto-generated by Cubase, then lightly dusted to pull it together. --dan.]

All I Ever Wanted (vocal)

I stumbled across the original 4-track cassette recording of this song I wrote back in 1995. It's an unusual song, the lyrics are fairly abstruse, but I assure you they mean something ;-) --Dan

PRODIGAL SON

Out of my domain, into my horizon I return
Like a beacon in the night
Guide my sailors home to safe harbor
A beacon in the night, a beacon in the night

Like a Prodigal Son
Look at my richness
There is more from me to come
More than you can see, more than you can touch

Out of my domain, into my horizon I return
Was it written in my youth
Or born between the deepest waters of my mind?
Written in my youth, written in my youth?

Like a Prodigal Son...

RUDE AWAKENING!

You think this party started
When you walked into the room
You're sliding up to me 
In your patent leather shoes
You act like you're so fine
Coming at me with your slick line
I'm already feeling right
I don't need your tricks tonight
You're a player
You're a slayer
Coming in for the kill
You got me cornered - you just might as well stop trying!

Sister, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!
Brother, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!

Guess what? I'm coming up
I started with nothing, but I got luck
I got the beat you can't resist
I got the sound you cannot miss
Music is thumping
People are bumping
DJ is jumping in on the groove of my new somethin'

Brother, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!
Sister, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!
Mothers, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!
Lovers, you're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!

People! You're in for a RUDE AWAKENING!
