In These Times (Lyrics)

We're like a railway station: you depart, while i arrive -
A common destination, but we run on different times.
I ask at Information, but they've not yet built the track
That leads to liberation, 
Well I'll wait - i can't go back
 
But from here i hear a lot, from trains that come and go,
Hear the business of those bastards
Killing dads in Kosovo.
 
What am I to do from here then?
What am I to say?
I don't know how to make a difference -
I'm Gonna  make one anyway...
 
But I'm hoping for Love to find a way through,
And if it finds me, then I'll help it find you,
I'll help it find you...
 
We're all on different pathways,
But when push comes down to shove,
My Cynic's well and happy - 
But I still believe in Love.
 
We're giving birth to Something,
All this pain is not in vain;
If we can bear this darkness 
Well the sun will shine again.
 
Do you believe in something
That you hardly dare to dream about?
Then if you do, you are my proof:
Your life removes my doubt.
 
So what are we to do from here then?
What are we to say?
Don't know how to make a difference?
Let's make one anyway...
 
Yes I'm hoping for Love
To find a way through,
And if it finds me,
Then I'll help it find you,
I'll help it find you...
 
 
I'll help it find you.

Beautiful acoustic guitar improvisation on a jam session with my good fella Renan. Good times!

Beautiful Jam - Eduardo And Renan

First demo of Where Silver Ferns Grow
Week 1 assignment - TSA
Collaboration with Eduardo Amendola
https://soundcloud.com/eduardo-amendola

Demo version, I imagine a rhythm section on the first chorus and from there forward have strings or full orquestra backing the song.

Lyrics:

Intro

Playing barefoot I see her at the window
Her raspy voice loudly calling me
Lunch is served, time for a break now
Don’t make me count to three

Pre Chorus

Unsure of where the wind is blowing
I’m searching, I’m running

Chorus

Hold on, don’t forget where silver ferns grow
And who guided me when I could barely see

Verse 2

‘Cause I know, deep down in my soul
Stories are waiting to be told

Chorus

Hold on, don’t forget where silver ferns grow
And who guided me

Verse 3

A bright smile and I lose my track of time
With your comforting words, it’s hard to say goodbye
And when dark times come, don’t forget I’ll always be there by your side

Chorus

You’re searching, you’re learning
and you’re going and you’re coming… And until you return… I’ll keep the faith

Bridge

When you got no reasons to roam
And the moonlight arrives
The silver ferns will lead you home

Where silver ferns grow

Where Silver Ferns Grow

This is a collaboration between me and Paulo Almeida for the Lighthouse Station band, mostly recorded live in the studio.

It was a challenge for me to sing this one since it's such a deep song, but I had a fantastic time recording it. Paulo did a great job on the guitar and we split the solos as well. Special thanks to Renan Vicente for the audio mixing.
