Hey Dad, how you doing?
I'm fine, don't you worry about me.
I'm just trying to remember that story you told,
And wishing you were here dad
Wishing you were here.

I remember when we all clowned around
On that New Years Eve
When our eyes were young and the truth so profound
Was that the way we wanted it to be?

Life has a way of dividing us all
Yet we never know when to quit
Change tells us we are all moving on
Even though we know there's an end

But we moved on to another place
That tells our stories with grace
Had our broods and we made our hay
In the shadow of our great tree

So I remember the very first son
Of the very first son of the father
And how his eyes studied mine
Suckling his very first bottle

In the child, I saw myself
saw my father in those eyes
And remembered what my father said:
"You'll never tire,
looking in your son's eyes."
And so it was
I never tired
looking in my father's eyes.

Looking in My Fathers Eyes

I wrote this story for an old friend in my hometown who dedicated his life to Rock´n Roll, lived thru all the ups and downs  and never regretted the decision he  had made when he was very young.
I am really grateful for the collab with Mikey Falls  @MyKingFalls Collective who did a great job creating a catchy Rocksong ("working his magic on it!") with extraordinary vocals and vocal performance , a great hookmelody (right from the start!) and an impressive backing punch. 
I hope you enjoy this track as much as I do. Play it loud or use headphones. ´Yes, it is late Seventies Rocktime !

Life For Rock & Roll

Born in a place kind of middle class home
Working class quarter but pretty unknown
He grew up on music of his alltime icons
Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix, The Kinks and The Stones

He got gripped by music when he entered the scene
Played in clubs when he turned fifteen
It didn´t take long to get famous in town
A musical rebel with a sensitive soul

He lived for his passion and Rock & Roll

Just playing his music, never went with the flow
He followed his dream , he was ready to go
For the good, the bad and the dirty deeds
The price for it all had to be paid on the streets

A musical rebel with a sensitive soul
A fighter for passion and Rock & Roll

In the old days he was hungry, his brain so wired
He wasn´t so much older as he was tired
Found him drunk on the day he hit the ground
And the cold winter rain was pouring down

A musical rebel aiming higher for more
But he gets back up when he hits the floor

A musical rebel with a sensitive soul
He lived for his passion and Rock & Roll

Life for Rock & Roll

WELL IT IS HEAVEN  IN PARADISE
PASTIS AT SEVEN EN TERRASSE
AN ANGEL IS PASSING SUR LE TROTTOIR D’EN FACE
LIFE WAS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE

YOU’VE COME A LONG WAY
IT’S BEEN A LONG DAY
NOW YOU’RE IN HEAVEN IN PARADISE

HEY HAVE A MANGO IT’S ON THE HOUSE
DANCE A FANDANGO WITH MICKEY MOUSE
NEVER SAY NEVER DIEU EST DANS LA PLACE
SILENCE ET FERVEUR UN ANGE PASSE

YOU’VE COME A LONG WAY
IT’S BEEN A LONG DAY
NOW YOU’RE IN HEAVEN IN PARADISE

IT IS HEAVEN IN PARADISE
PASTIS AT SEVEN ABOVE THE STARS
NEVER SAY NEVER YOU NEVER KNOW
ALWAYS IS OVER YOU HAD TO GO 

YOU’VE COME A LONG WAY
IT’S BEEN A LONG DAY
NOW YOU’RE IN HEAVEN IN PARADISE

YOU HAD THE WORST YOU HAD THE BEST
AND NOW YOU GET ETERNAL REST
AT LAST
RELAX RELAX RELAX…

HEAVEN IN PARADISE (Lyrics)

It’s lonely out tonight
The sky is black with rain
I’m waiting for the morning
Cuz I can’t stand the pain
It’s deep inside me
And I know you feel it too
Why can’t we try again
Somewhere new

You’re out tonight
I feel it in my bones
Hopefully somewhere
Not all alone
And I am trying to hold on
To something we had
Let’s stay together
Before it’s all gone

Chorus
My Charlotte
You’re raining on my parade
I thought one day
We would be together
I’m trying to understand
How we got this way
I’m not over you
Honey I just can’t help it
I’m all alone and blue

So I’m standing outside
My tears mixed with rain
Trying to find a handle
On what’s the blame
You were once my girl
The center of my world
And now we’re drifting
And I can’t ease the pain

Oh Charlotte
Give me something
To give us hope
Don’t leave me standing
All alone and blue
I don’t have the answers
I’m just wanting you

Chorus
Oh My Charlotte
You’re raining on my parade
I thought one day
We would be together
I’m trying to understand
How we got this way
I’m not over you
Honey I just can’t help it
I’m all alone and blue

My Charlotte (Acoustic)

Exit stage right
At the end of the term
Out with a bang
No daylight to burn
The laurel in place
At the crown of the crest

But first a little business
Try to broker the last piece
Some shine for the crown
Let’s make those missiles cease
And hack off a chunk of glory
For the art of the deal

Chorus
Weeeeee look at me
And what do you see?
Someone pandering
For his legacy. Weeee!

Let’s squeeze each troy ounce
Out of the targeted mark
Then meet me in Shangri-la
To divvy up the deal
Then off on a lark
After a celebratory meal

Bridge
We take what can be taken
Like Boinie before
Take what can be taken
And always want more

Life is so good
At the top of the heap
Live off the minions
We take take and reap
Live off the minions
And don’t lose any sleep

Chorus
Weeeeee look at me
And what do you see?
Someone pandering
For his legacy. Weeee!

Bridge
We take what can be taken
Like Boinie before
Take what can be taken
And always want more

Look at Me

mean old man

J’AI RÊVÉ DE VOUS
VOUS M’AVEZ RÊVÉE
ET PUIS ON S’EST RÉVEILLÉS

WAS I IN YOUR DREAMS LAST NIGHT
YOU WERE IN MINE SO I FIGURED I MIGHT
COS WE ALL DREAM OF EACH OTHER
YES WE ALL DREAM OF ONE ANOTHER
ALL WILL BE FINE LAST NIGHT YOU WERE MINE

I’LL BE IN YOUR DREAMS TONIGHT
YES I’LL BE AROUND SOMEWHERE AFTER MIDNIGHT
COS WE ALL DREAM OF EACH OTHER
YES WE ALL DREAM OF ONE ANOTHER
AND OUT OF SIGHT AT NIGHT WE REUNITE

WE ALL DREAM OF EACH OTHER
YES WE ALL DREAM OF ONE ANOTHER
AND BY THE LIGHT OF THE MOON SHINING BRIGHT
TONIGHT YOU WILL BE MINE

WE WERE FRIENDS WE WERE FRIENDS

Hi. I'm Ed. First off, thanks for listening. 

You might notice a link below to a blog site John Eagle and I started to add a new dimension to the stories we tell. 

Once I played in a band that had two Elvises (Elvi) and adopted the pseudonym edro as a cover.  

Mostly it is me playing guitar, keyboards, mandolin, and whatever else makes sense for a song. Most of the songs are original with a few live. The originals are written and performed by edro. I have been fortunate lately to be involved with some collaborations with some real fine folks.

The intro was written when I first joined SoundCloud. While I collaborate with many fine folks, John Eagle and I have written hundreds of songs together. We are working pretty hard writing good songs these days.

Look at Me
