This is a story that takes place post World War II in which a migrant farm worker has an unexpected love affair with the landowner's wife. Since the lyrics are difficult to make out, I have posted them below. Thank you for listening. Without you, there's no music at all. 

THE WINDMILL

And the day has come for barley and rye
Gold sunset rests in the field
Haven't come home, heart of steel

Fog clearing from her mind
All the time, will take time
Eternity

Shadows tell him he's lost his mind
Seasons change before her eyes
A tragedy

Whilst the wind blow upon that bluff
A brazen key
The beast that pulls the plow
A calm reprieve

The eyes, they locked the door
The barn, love's web will weave
Haven't even talked
Knees trembling gently

Passing through this time and place
How would I know?

Alphio and I were great friends through Soundcloud and after he was diagnosed with terminal cancer, we decided to record a song of solace, Bob Marley’s iconic 3 Little Birds.  Alphio was a Rastafarian and very knowledgeable about the music.  We released our version about a month after this solo recording from Alphio.  He was sitting outside his apartment in Italy on a park bench and incredibly you can hear the birds while he sings.  Alphio was in the moment when he recorded this, fully knowledgeable about what shortly lay ahead.  I miss him greatly

FEEL UP

Road Maps is a blues-inspired song about a knight who did not go to the previous crusade and longed for the glory given to those who did and came back. The song follows his attempt to rendevous with a large military group he belongs to, but is late to the party; he meets interesting and colourful characters throughout his quest to take up arms, with each character symbolizing, codifying and exuding themes of honour, enchantment, potential, backstabbery, and cowardice. Once our character arrives at the battle scene he's been searching for, he sees his side has already lost and tries to slip away unharmed.

LYRICS:
The sky is blue
And the trees are green
Armour shining in the sun.
Headin' out east to Valence
No the battle has not begun.

Out on the road
Ran into Raymond of Tolosa,
His words are rogue
From his battles over Asia.
Who blusters by
But the defacto Margrave boy!
Only fools fly.
The same as the others employ
They are a king's toy.

Their swords are sharp,
But their minds are bare
Absolving absolution:
Been sent out here to conquer
Lord they can't save themselves.

The sky is red
And the land is rich
Signs of victory prevail.
Egressing to Durazzo 
Ohh what it might entail.

Through distant peaks
Met the Moneyman of Milan,
The Byz repeats
Underneath the consecration song.
As months go on
See the Wealthy Barvarian!
Their greed is strong.
He escaped a contrarian
But he was no barbarian.

Their swords are sharp,
But their minds are bare
Absolving absolution:
Been sent out here to conquer
Lord they can't save themselves.

The sky is grey
And the walls are high
Enemy of a lost cause.
Runnin' on past Nicea
No time to greet a pause.

The sky is black
And the trees are burnt
A force surrounds to assert.
Over the Isle of Cypress
How many more will revert.

A broken siege
Constable Conrad wants to win,
Thou doth beseech
The sounds and sights are feeling grim.
Down on the ground
Steven the Coward was redeemed!
His oath was bound.
The process fails at the seams
Must leave swiftly unseen.

No matter where you're from,
Or the suit you wear
If then presented a path:
Better not choose the wrong one
You could meet the devil's wrath!

Whatever one may want
Or the aim you take
Your target's in the distance:
Better deem your ambition
It's chosen by admission!

If you take up in arms 
And meet a dismal end
Outlived by a narrative:
Create a clear perspective
Tale tales so affected!

Their swords are sharp,
But their minds are bare
Absolving absolution:
Been sent out here to conquer
Lord they can't save themselves.

met Carlotta's zoete stem! Een hele tijd geleden... 

Als in een boek in een andere taal 
ben je beland in een vreemd verhaal
Doolt door het huis je voelt je alleen
gaat niet buiten gaat nergens heen

Praat tegen muren, ze antwoorden niet 
praat tegen jezelf, maar je hoort het niet
denk niet dat ik het niet weet
ik hoor en zie je diep verdriet

Als je roept kom ik naar je toe 
probeer te slapen je bent zo moe 
ik zal over je waken 
in donkere zee, ben ik je licht, ben ik je baken 
geen loze woorden, ik zal er voor je zijn 
van nu af aan ben ik je reddingslijn

Je voelt je een scherf van een vaas die aan diggelen ligt (x2)
Maar dan ben je een deel van een groter geheel 
goed omringd en niet alleen				x2
Een golf van de zee, een straal van het licht		x2
 een rijm in een mooi gedicht
Als je roept kom ik naar je toe 
probeer te slapen, je bent zo moe 
ik zal over je waken 
in donkere zee , ben ik je licht ben ik je baken 
geen loze woorden ik zal er voor je zijn 
van nu af aan ben ik je reddingslijn
goed omringd en niet alleen, deel van een groter geheel

Translation:
Like in a book in another language
you have ended up in a strange story
Wandering through the house you feel alone
doesn't go outside doesn't go anywhere

Talk to walls, they don't answer
talk to yourself, but you don't hear it
Don't think I don't know
I hear and see your deep sorrow

If you call, I will come to you
try to sleep you are so tired
I will watch over you
in the dark sea, I am your light, I am your beacon
no empty words, I will be there for you
From now on, I'm your lifeline

You feel like a shard of a vase that is shattered (x2)
But then you are part of a bigger picture
well surrounded and not just a pixle
A wave of the sea, a ray of light 
 a rhyme in a beautiful poem
If you call, I will come to you
try to sleep, you're so tired
I will watch over you
In the dark sea, I am your light, I am your beacon
no empty words I will be there for you
From now on, I'm your lifeline
well surrounded and not alone, part of a larger whole
