please forgive my vocals, which start about 2:20

There were fireworks in the sky
I’d never seen a night so bright
On that fourth day of July

I was far away from home
And It felt so all alone
But There was magic in that night

Do I believe,  do i believe
Can I open up my eyes
To what’s real and what’s a lie?

Those restless summer days, we walked and talked the time away
The cool summer nights and the ocean breeze and you and I

I was hoping you might see
Some spark of life in me
Something there i;ve never seen

But it was just a summer thing
A meaningless little fling
That's what you said to me

But it was more it was so much more
When will I open up my eyes
To see through this disguise?


Those restless summer days, the times i kissed your tears away
The cool of the summer nights and the wind so free and the fireworks bright
And your breath on my skin, and your heart in time with mine
with no one else alive
Lost in space and time…
Why did we say goodbye?

We never even tried
and we left it there to die
Why’d we ever say goodbye

Medley July 4th/Why Did We Ever Say Goodbye? (w/ VOCAL)

We conclude our Summer Series on a hopeful note and a glimpse into the future.  Mankind has finally found that it can accept the differences that divide us, share the bounty between us, and become a vast community governed by faith, hope, and love. How did such a thing come about?  We collectively took a step back from the brink of self-annihilation by realizing "we solve most things if we talk".  
Ironically, this was the most complex song of the five to put together,  We all had an idea of how we wanted it to turn out, and thanks to Seagull and a lot of talking between us behind the scenes, we came to consensus and a final version.  Our little band is proof "we can solve most things if we talk":)  It has been an honor to work with each of you:

We Solve Most Things If We Talk

Summer rain finds my face, splashing through my smile
Thunder rumbles fall away, storm is phasing through
Peace of mind is on the case, misery is in denial,
Yesterday’s squally day, tomorrow’s skies are azure blue.

Dreams of history’s tension gladly start to ease
Gripping claws of lunacy finally shun the past
Seems things turned out badly for hunger and disease
Slipping towards unity, laying down the guns at last.

Call my neighbour as my friend, our meanings line as one
Colour, gods and politics accepted as they are
Mutualities to defend no conflict clouds our shining sun
Consideration and respect, a communal repertoire

Mother Mary called today
Handed me a flower stalk
Kissed my worries clean away
We solve most things if we talk.

Need as might we understand equality’s a bed of lies
Celebrate uniqueness as a cast of human thread
Day and night, hand in hand, no polity compromise
Learning from our weakness past, focused on the light ahead.

Mother Mary spoke today
Led me on a learning walk
Eased my troubles on the way
We solve most things if we talk.

Mother Mary sang today
Left me with a simple thought
The wisest heads will simply say
We solve most things if we talk.
"We Solve Most Things If We Talk"

This is the original instrumental version of the Hip-Hop track I did before I decided to add lyrics and collaborated with the talented Ian Greaves (aka @IPG1). After composing this instrumental track, Ian was kind enough to let me use his lyrics/vocals from his song ‘Modern Times’.

Here is the version with lyrics:
https://soundcloud.com/user-432503709/modern-times-the-digital-age-collab-with-ipg1

And here's the link back to IPG1's original vocal track; please give him a listen!:
https://soundcloud.com/ipg1/modern-times-vocals-150-bpm

Most of the music is performed by me, with the exception of the sampled vocalization in the middle bridge and ending, and a few sound effects here & there. The beginning starts off normal enough, but the middle section takes a bit of a left turn before I 'go off' on the synth in the second half. I kind of enjoyed working the sliders on the live synth performance.   ;)

Thanks for listening!

Lyrics:

I always played by the rules
Was so sure, I would never loose
But I lost..
Really thought in love and life
Everything would turn out just fine for me
I was wrong..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I´ll be just fine..

I was naive, so believed that all I gave 
would  somehow come back to me
It wasn't true..
Thought I was leading my ship
With a steady hand
But I crashed on land
The ship was wrecked..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I'll be just fine..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I´ll be just fine...

I have failed, I have learned
So after all this have been good for me
I know better now..
Experience is good to have
Even though it can hurt so bad
Time will heal..

Just give me time
A bottle of wine
And I'll be just fine!

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.
