I had to re-upload this track. The other version was glitchy. I lost the comments but thank you to all of you who had listened before and left a comment – much appreciated.

This has a kind of Nick Cave vibe... 🖤 really great dark vocals

Love your style man! The instruments used, the vocals, the lyrics - so unique

Hey Joseph man, love your production on this almost as much as I enjoy hearing your pleasing bass voice. This has a wonderful, off kilter groove to it. It gives your vocals a really hypnotic cadence. Outstanding work here, my friend!

Excellent song and singing, Joseph! Fantastic lyrics! Still , you remind me of The Church band from Australia!!! Great thing, brother!! 💎💎💎🙏🙏🙏

Great stuff, your voice and style of singing is a bit reminiscent of the magnetic fields to me

This has a sort of hymnal resolve to it. Really unique combo of styles which you do really well. Not to mention the brilliant lyrics you’re also very good at. Nice track !

Two Forms Under A Shady Tree

There we were waiting
As it always seems to be
The evening closing in around us
Distance as far as the eye could see
We held each other tightly
A warning to the insinuating cold
That this here between us
Will become a storied tale of old

Our time is now and before us
Were bound together and will forever be
Two forms under a shady tree
Two forms under a shady tree

The snowflakes did their dance
In ringlets and spirals they fell
Forming upon every surface
A cocoon preserving yesterday well
But today was a new day
That projects what lay ahead
So hand slides into hand
And head leans against head

Our time is now and before us
Were bound together and will forever be
Two forms under a shady tree
Two forms under a shady tree

It's the burden for time now
To pose its weary questions and try to dispel
Like every union ever made
That had risen before they fell
But make no mistake for this is a special one
Poised and ready to take its stand
To assign itself victorious
And tread the hourglass of sand

Our time is now and before us
Were bound together and will forever be
Two forms under a shady tree
Two forms under a shady tree

We took that arduous journey
That's claimed many a pair
We emerge in the wake of every discord
Undisturbed by avarice or lack of care
The morning sun shines brightly
As the trees stretched to meet the day
We smile as we whisper in each other's ear
The only words we've ever needed to say

Our time is now and before us
Were bound together and will forever be
Two forms under a shady tree
Two forms under a shady tree
