IN MEMORY 

Blessed be Thou for all the joy
My soul has felt to-day!
O let its memory stay with me
And never pass away!


I was alone, for those I loved
Were far away from me;
The sun shone on the withered grass,
The wind blew fresh and free.


Was it the smile of early spring
That made my bosom glow?
'Twas sweet, but neither sun nor wind
Could raise my spirit so.


Was it some feeling of delight,
All vague and undefined?
No, 'twas a rapture deep and strong,
Expanding in my mind!


Was it a sanguine view of life
And all its transient bliss—
A hope of bright prosperity?
O no, it was not this!

Lyrics:

He would arrive at half past four
He took the garbage beside my door
He said I can’t talk of it anymore
In my mind, there is always war
 
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
Yes, he’s gone, he’s not coming back
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
 
He carried the bags in his hands
Filled with bodies from the jungle land
He called at night, said do you understand
What could I say to the burning lamb
 
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
Yes, he’s gone, he’s not coming back
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
 
He’s not going be on the next train
He’s not going to come in from the pouring rain
He’s not going to give his kind regards
It’s really, really too hard
 
He came home no one cared
He had a face crippled by wear
Memories of those lads placed on his back
All that weight too much to ask
 
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
Yes, he’s gone, he’s not coming back
Because Joe is still in Vietnam
Because Joe is still in Vietnam

Lyrics:

Far up in the sky 
a falcon flies
With a proud and raised head
It sails away

Chorus:
Looking down at us
With his sharp falcon gaze...
Looking down at us
with his sharp falcon gaze..

He wonder about us
the human race
Consider our mistakes 
with his falcon gaze..

chorus..

He cannot understand 
in his falcon brain
How the human race
can have any gain..

Chorus..

Why do we destroy 
what is around us?
Nature is torn down 
No place for a falcon..

Chorus..

The falcon flies on 
hope to find
A safe place to land
while the earth breaks...

Looking down at us
With his sharp falcon gaze..

Valley's Boy

I'm just a Valley's boy at the heart
Wind me up and I'll play my part
Son of a couple who couldn't get a start
Always loved the underdog
Never felt a part

The dirty shanty lives of the working class
The Rhondda Fawr and the Rhondda Fach
Washing the working souls down the fractured hills
Into the River Taff the Rhondda's running still

Sandstone pavements and rusted steel
Cold wet wind on my down at heel
Pick your future boy, forget your dreams
Mining our lives like those deep coal seams

Valley's Boy

Sunburned

Good Cop Bad Cop.


They're playin with my head.

Yeah I could say most anything
You twist my words and throw them back at me
It doesn't really matter what I say
You'll draw your own conclusions anyway

Good cop, bad cop.

No mater how it looks or what I say
They're coming out all wrong, my words today
Made up your mind about the way this goes
It's juxtapose if the truth be told.

Good cop bad cop
Playing with my mind.

Yeah I could say most anything
You'll mince it up and bake your lies with it
A recipe for imoral gain
Targets met, bad cop at the reins

Good cop bad cop
Make it stop.

Good Cop Bad Cop.  (Voice of Logan collab).

Best described as eclectic, my style is a soothing mix mirroring my personality: mostly mellow with the occasional outburst. Although I have a background in classical piano I have always loved to create and improvise.  Since early childhood I have been trying to duplicate on the piano what I hear in my head.  Now I see how formal studies and improvisation fit together perfectly. I hope to always keep growing and learning, reflecting the beauty of Christ in all my endeavors. Thank you for your kind listening.
