Goodness... I had to play this twice. Gorgeously descriptive as it is endearing. Your vox is liquid gold. I could listen on replay all day.

I can't say enough about what Mr. Fedrigoli has done with Merlot. 
He didn't just take what I had done and give it a better mix, he transformed the song into something much more striking that I hadn't even imagined.   I am very grateful for his very kind assistance with this song.

That picture was generated by the Wombo Dream app.  it does a good job of generating pictures.  I recommend it.

Lyrics:
She took a long slow sip from a dark red bottle
Sat back and counted the stars
There was some cool jazz playin on the radio
Percussion, bass and two guitars
There was a full moon risin' in a dark blue sky
and the wind was whispering low
she thought about tomorrow and decided to stay
and have another sip of merlot

------

He took a long deep drag from the dark red bottle
Crickets were the only sound
Until a freight train passed through the cool night air
you could hear it all over town
The lonely horn sounded Like like a saxophone
The drivers made a rhythmic flow
He thought about tomorrow and decided to stay
And have another sip of merlot

------

You take your turn when the mic is open
Stand up and sing a song.
You pick the right tune and the words are easy
People start singing along.
But when the crowd starts clapping you sit back down
You know that its the end of the show
You think about tomorrow and decide to stay
and have another sip of merlot

Twenty Years Too Late

slippery slope

I am sending signals to your brain
Telling you you're fine and it's okay
I am roses
I am chocolate
I am shirtless in the rain
I am twenty-five
Twenty-five again

I am beaming life into your heart
Recognizing who you are
I am wondrous
I am sun-kissed
You once knew my name
I am twenty-five
Twenty-five again

I watched you pack the car and drive away 
Does the cross she gave you
Hang heavy on its chain?
And if you thought you ever could
Didn't know you never would
Be twenty-five again

Can you cast your mind back to receive
From a younger self who still believes  
You never lost it
And you don't really need
To be twenty-five 
Twenty-five again
Twenty-five
Twenty-five again

Twenty-five Again

Nocturne

Give me 1. I want 2.
Give me 2. I want 3.
Gimme Gimme Gimme your time and love. Give it all to me.

I want your past, your present, your future
I don’t think that I’m asking for much.
All I want is your outer space ‘cause your world is just not enough.

I want more!
I want more!
I want more from you.
Take a bite. Sink my teeth into you.

I want to have your cake. I want to eat it too.
I got my eyes on your ice cream.
Gimme Gimme your tasty treats. Give 'em up to me.

I want all of your business, your pleasure.
I don’t think that I’m asking for much
All I want is your sleepless nights, ‘cause your days just ain’t enough.

I want more!
I want more!
I want more from you.
Take a bite. Sink my teeth into you.

More!

Manhattan Renaissance Days

I love to make new songs with smooth organic sounds and vocal harmonies that remind me of favourite bands from the 1970's. If you like Paul Simon, Cat Stevens, America, Neil Young, and Nilsson, you might enjoy this music too.

These songs are fictional vignettes and stories. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.

I facilitated worship in congregations for many years, and some songs here were written for that purpose. If you find a one you'd like to use, I would be happy to provide a chart.
