Music, Performance, Engineering by Dick Fairthorne II
(My tribute to Freef'all Sundays, a fantastic open jam that takes place every Sunday at The Supermarket in Kensington Market, Toronto, Canada)

Though we might be falling stars
and the speed of life moves fast
and cecelia is in all our hearts;
I have these memories, forever granted me.

Sunday evening family meeting
We all journey here to show you our hearts are true
to share our hearts with you

We're not afraid
and not alone in our freefall
We know we can fly
and when we land we will stand tall.

'cause we're not afraid to try
and we're not afraid to give
and our hearts are here for all to see
hanging on our sleeves,
this is love and love is what we breathe

Dread Eye he speaks his soul
he says "I know that they lied to you"
and we all connect in a way that you can't undestand
unless you celebrate here too

pollack, jlatte, hunt and patel,
bridges and branko command our eye
backed by tony, steve and thomas
"mr. records" McKay

We're not afraid
and not alone in our freefall
We know we can fly
and when we land we will stand tall.

and we're not afraid to die
'cause we took the time to live!
and we have some time to share with  you
come and join the fun
we saved a seat for everyone

[instrumental break]

performers are glistening
and everyone's listening
we've all found new friends
then Sheldon Holder, comes on over
and the ladies shake their ends

we're not afraid
and not alone in our freefall
we know we can fly
and when we land we will stand tall.

and we're not afraid to die
'cause we took the time to live!
and we have some time to share with you
come and join the fun
we'll make some time for everyone

and we're not afraid to try
and we're not afraid to give
and our hearts are here for all to see
hanging on our sleeve
this is love and love is what we breed.
