Gate To Reborn - Christian Levitan and Rick Shearer

Jagged Orbit

To walk the road to heaven have the least time those who repair it, and those who carry the lantern stumble more easily than those who follow it.

天国への道を歩くのに一番時間がないのは修理する人であり、提灯を持ち歩く人はそれに従う人よりもつまずきやすい。

那些最没有时间走天路的人是修天路的人，提灯的人比跟灯的人更容易绊倒。

Ceux qui ont le moins de temps pour marcher sur le chemin du ciel sont ceux qui le réparent, et ceux qui portent la lanterne trébuchent plus facilement que ceux qui la suivent.

Den Weg zum Himmel zu gehen haben die am wenigsten Zeit, die ihn reparieren, und wer die Laterne trägt, stolpert leichter, als wer ihr folgt.

Darkness Under The Lamp | 灯台もと暗し

'ANOTHER WAY'
Written, Performed & Produced
By Andrew Borderick Copyright 2018
Re-Mastered By Andrew Borderick OCT 2020

SOMETIMES FAST, SOMETIMES SLOW
ALL THE TIME THERE IS NO WHERE TO GO
SOMETIMES UP, ONLY LOOKING DOWN
ALL MY LOVE HAS NOW HIT THE GROUND

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

SITTING LONELY, WHAT TO DO
THINK I'LL GO BUY SOME FANCY SHOES
I'M IN THE LIGHT, NEVER FELT BEFORE
CAN'T BELIEVE I'VE EVEN HIT THE FLOOR

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
(BREAK)
MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

SOMETIMES FAST, SOMETIMES SLOW
ALL THE TIME THERE IS NO WHERE TO GO
SOMETIMES UP, ONLY LOOKING DOWN
ALL MY LOVE HAS NOW HIT THE GROUND

MAY'BE I COULD FIND, ANOTHER WAY
MAY'BE I COULD TRY, ANOTHER DAY
MAY'BE I COULD FIND,
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU
ANOTHER WAY WITH YOU

LYRICS: 
Some would say I’ve got no sense of direction
Some would say I’ve got no sense at all
Some would say I’m going round in circles
Like a clock ticking on the the wall

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

Some people say I move too fast
Some people say I move too slow
Some people say there’s no need to move at all
If you don’t know where to go

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

I might go looking for the sun in the morning
Or maybe in the afternoon
Sit back with a cold beer in the evening
And just look up at the moon 

Some would say head for the highlands 
Some say the lowlands are for me 
Some would say just follow your heart
Wherever that may be

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

I might go looking for the sun in the morning
Or maybe in the afternoon
Sit back with a cold beer in the evening
And just look up at the moon 

Maybe I do 
Maybe I don’t
Maybe I will 
Maybe I won’t

Maybe I Do

Welcome to 2024 and thank you for visiting my Soundcloud page. 
It's great to connect with so many talented musicians here on Soundcloud! On this page you'll find my original songs (including 4 albums) and acoustic guitar instrumentals (including 2 EP's), together with various notes about guitars played, tunings, recording etc.

I am in the process of writing my fifth album which I hope to record over these winter months.

Musical influences for me have been many and varied including for example Bert Jansch, John Martyn, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Mark Knopfler, BB King, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Fairport Convention, Paul Simon,  JJ Cale, Eric Clapton, Colin Hay and John Mayer.

Hope you enjoy listening to my music.

Photography: Thanks go to Nigel and Libby Hume at Hume Photography.

Maybe I Do
