This song started its life as one of a batch of bass lines Josh came up with around the New Year holiday. He recorded it to a rudimentary drum loop, which Ken replaced perfectly with his own beat. Stephen joined the project next, adding his chordally flavorful, foundational guitar you hear underlying the entire song. Not to miss out on the guitaring, Tez came up with the ethereal guitar fills that float around in there. Mark came after Tez with his textural wah clavinet, also adding the wonderful sax solo you hear in the middle. 
  After it was done musically, Josh went back and wrote some lyrics and sang them, too.
  Once it was in the can, we asked Tez to do the honors of mixing it for us, which he did in his always expert fashion. 
  This is a fine example of the Eclectic Collective coming together to create a heartfelt song.  We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:Sometimes I think about 
Things we used to talk about
Now I have to go without
Ever looking at your face x2
 
But I want you near me
Wish that you could hear me

What if we could ever reach
Out to the other each
But what would we say?
Is it just another routine day? x2
  
It makes my heart hurt bad
When I think of what I had
Now you’ve slipped away
Seems I saw you just the other day
 
Life can be really cruel
And I can be a fool
But I wish there were a way
I could hear what you would say

Lyrics

Kom in,  
In i  värmen  
Nu när ljuset vilar lugnt
över snöfallet som lagt sig runt stugan  
Lillasyster som ler  
medan golvet av trä  
skakas i takt av fyrverkerier 
Medan nyårsnatten ringer ut 

Mormor 
Sitter och väntar vid stenen 
på att mitt kvällsdopp ska bli klart 
I sommarens sista andetag  

En önskan jag haft
Efter Varje dag som går
Är att höra hennes röst igen
Nu när nyårsafton 
Återigen ringer ut

Mor, Jag är allt du är 
Och Far, Jag är allt du är
Storasyster kan du se
Hur stolta vi alla e´
Över dig Lillasyster kan du se
Hur viktig du é 
För mig

Kom in, 
In i värmen
I detta nya jordeliv
Som står still 
för all tid som är kvar 

Morfar
Sitter och väntar vid bordet
Nu när julen är här  och alla nu är
Tillsammans igen

En önskan som jag haft
Efter Varje dag som går
Är att få styrkan att börja om igen 
Nu när nyårsafton 
återigen ringer ut 

Mor, Jag är allt du är 
Och Far, Jag är allt du är
Storasyster kan du se
Hur stolta vi alla e´
Över dig 
Och Lillasyster kan du se
Hur viktig du é 
För mig
