Who Needs a Knight When You've Got Your Own Steed

Me talking about the inspiration for my new album, Peregreni, and how I eventually decided to live my dream and become a musician even though a mix of rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes and a few other medical inconveniences nearly got in the way.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
 I feel it, when I sorrow most;
 'Tis better to have loved and lost
 Than never to have loved at all.

Alfred Lord Tennyson, In Memoriam

Oblivion (remix)

An overcoming song with a big chorus.

VERSE 1

You’re trapped and lonely
Think no-one else sees
How dark and hopeless
Your nights can be.
You’ll wake tomorrow
And still feel that way,
Your days revolving
Each one the same.

I was once where you are now.
Let me show you how

CHORUS

I walk through fire,
I walk through rain
Without a mark on me
At least none that remain.
The glass broke around me,
I haven’t a scratch.
On nights below zero
I held onto a match.

VERSE 2

On fire, get water.
Bring flame to your ice.
When you’re starting
To go under
Tread water and rise.
When the surface, it closes,
Can’t break it yourself.
You’re not alone here,
You can always get help.

If you’ll look up once more
You’ll see the shore.

CHORUS

You’ll walk through fire,
You’ll walk through rain
Without a mark on you,
At least none that remain.
The glass breaks around you,
You haven’t a scratch.
On nights below zero,
You’ll hold on to a match.

I walk through fire,
I walk through rain
Without a mark on me
At least none that remain.
The glass broke around me,
I haven’t a scratch
On nights below zero
I held on to a match.

OUTRO

Just tread water and rise (repeated)

I Walk Through Fire

An country/Gospel song that has more than 3 chords. Just sayin'.

Walking On Water

Thanks so much for checking out this song. The piano was recorded in Nashville, USA and the vocals in Northern Ireland. It's a song on a painful topic but I'm hoping that some people will find it comforting.

Relatives Room


Verse 1

The couch was low and worn out,
The ceiling was polystyrene,
The kind you only ever see
In hospitals but never homes.
Since I was asked into this corner
I knew the end was coming.
They try to make it look warm,
The bad news room.
You had a room full of noisy machines,
Mine was quiet and no-one looked in.


Chorus

I lay with eyes wide open
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
The place where I stopped hoping,
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
We had climbed our mountains,
Sung our songs, you and I.
Kept apart by a corridor,
Not the way to say goodbye.

Verse 2

It was six in the morning
When they brought me a cup of tea
And I walked through doors wide open
To listen to you breathe.
In every breath your memories
Hung in the air,
Filled the room.
Wisps of walking on beaches
Hand in hand with you.
Then the memories fell to the floor
And the noisy machines didn’t bleep any more.

Chorus

I lay with eyes wide open
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
The place where I stopped hoping,
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
We had climbed our mountains,
Sung our songs, you and I.
Kept apart by a corridor,
Not the way to say goodbye.

Middle 8

I wish we’d had more time
But the time that we had is still mine.


Chorus

I lay with eyes wide open
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
The place where I stopped hoping,
In the relatives’ room,
In the relatives’ room.
We had climbed our mountains,
Sung our songs, you and I.
Kept apart by a corridor,
Not the way to say goodbye.

We had climbed our mountains,
Sung our songs, you and I.
