On Friday morning I put my hands down on the piano and I played the first chords of this song without even thinking.

By Saturday night I had finished writing and recording the song, I am releasing it on Sunday.

White Light


whispered on the wind that whistles through the west
was there someone calling my name?
may have been the sound of the busy city streets
none the less, I came here all the same.
riding through the prairie, tapping with my foot
to the metal rhythms of the train
watching through the windows for the mountain range
that pulls me like a magnet through the plains.

well I reckon maybe, since I'm from the east
this could be some kind of fantasy
but if this flight of fancy makes me feel at home,
here is where I'll make my history.  
after years of searching, I keep coming back
to the land a mile above the sea
though the wind is dusty, and rain seldom falls
this is where I know I have to be.

Gone West

Written by Harry Nilsson for the film "the Point" 


Me and my arrow
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, every one knows
It's me and my arrow

Me and my arrow
Taking the high road
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my arrow

And in the morning when I wake up
She may be gone, I don't know
And if we make up just to break up
I'll carry on, oh yes I will





Me And My Arrow


For many moons
we have denied
The things that we
Felt most inside
Why do we fear
to be revealed
the wounds, when shared
could help us heal?
We built a wall
without a door
and forgotten why
we built it for
So tear it down
and start again
if we can't trust
we'll never win

So many moons
that we could share
if we let our love
take us there
raise our hands
put down our fists
together we
can fix all this
It's here for us 
if we should choose
we only have
our world to lose
uncloud our eyes
see not through pain
and learn we have
a world to gain   

 


Many Moons

Instrumental track. This "music phase" of mine sure seems to have lasted a while. 

Phases

I've been leaning on the windowpane,
and I'm staring through the frozen glass.
with the future reaching for my back -
as I'm looking deep into the past.

I wonder can I get it out of me?
(ask my reflection on the subway train)
- but not the others on the city streets
as I walk home through the pouring rain.

along the shores of a northern beach
while walking in the ocean air,
I thought I heard the waves beckoning
though I was certain no ones there..

I'm getting pulled out by the undertow,
the sea is swallowing up all the sound.
- except the siren, I can hear her call
her song is gently ringing all around.

I brought her message from the underground,
and tried to spread it to the surface life.
but it seems nobody's listening-
should I retire to the endless night?

into the safety of the waning moon,
blanketed under a veil of stars,
are there others who can hear the tune?
I'm here and waiting, tell me who you are.

...The Call

In the fields
Where we play
Late at night
Was a sound
Like the stars
Come to earth
With a crash
There was light
In my eyes
When I called 
Out your name
And the ground
Shook my body
And soul
So we ran
To the beach
And the safety
Of home
But the moon
Followed us
In the night
And the glow
Filled our hearts
As our fear
Fell away
So we now
Luminesce
From within

"Jimmy Brown
Made of stone
Charlie Clown
No way home
Bring on the dancing horses
Headless and all alone

Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while I'm breaking
Your brittle heart

Billy stands
All alone
Sinking sand
Skin and bone
Bring on the dancing horses
Wherever they may roam

Shiver and say the words
Of every lie you've heard

First I'm gonna make it
Then I'm gonna break it
Till it falls apart
Hating all the faking
And shaking while I'm breaking
Your brittle heart

Brittle heart
Brittle heart
And my little heart
Goes

Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam
Bring on the new messiah
Wherever he may roam"
