Keep Love Near

Verse 1
How do you do it?
How do you find 
Just the right words 
Every time? 
Turning waste into wishes 
Rubbish into rhyme
Making hearts swell
And even strong ones cry

Chorus
You wake up all we forget
Settling down pain and regret
You say what we all need to hear
And remind us to keep love near

Verse 2
You melt into moments
Still as midnight
Until you see colors
Revelations of mind
Then you string them like popcorn
On a holiday tree
And hang them up high
For those who look up to see


Chorus
You wake up all we forget
Settling down pain and regret
You say what we all need to hear
And remind us to keep love near 

Bridge
Ahhhh 
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Ahhhh 


Verse 3
How do we thank you
What can we do?
For shifting perspective
So that we can see too
Something tells me
You have all that you need
For you know what matters
All grows from love’s seed

Chorus
You wake up all we forget
Settling down pain and regret
You say what we all need to hear
And remind us to keep love near

Keep Love Near

The Union crosses the Rappahannock river and clears Fredericksburg. The Confederates retreat to the surrounding hills behind a 4 foot high stone wall. Union frontal attacks, while valiant, are futile with casualties 2:1 ending in total Union withdrawal. History would later lay blame on the Union high command for the debacle.
Lyrics - have multiple meanings: Crossing the river, subsequent fears and sorrow, poor Immigrant and runaway slave Negro soldiers compelled by their conscience to fight for a better free world; give their all often dying slowly and painfully while left alone on the battlefield - now the Lyrics:

Rivers of tears
Unending fears Lord
These souls
Longing to be free
Their all
Is all they have to give oh Lord
Their blood
Buying liberty

Rivers of Tears (with Vocals - redo-description inside)

The Good Grains of Sand

First Love

A song about sometimes its better to not reignite the flames constantly 
of things that caused hurt to you.
I learned that letting bygones by bygones eventually gives you the inner peace you really need.

Keep Love Near
