Demo. 14 years old....
And then she told me …  words still crawl across my mind  … staged an ambush .… I crawled for cover but to no avail… 
We’re two no  longer …  newly numberless at last… just names and faces .. tomorrow we’ll be  meeting someone new
The voice we hear is just beyond the veil… the flash of life  is just beyond our sight.. please tell me child just who you are and who you wish to be…  and all I’ll ever ask of thee is love….
Yes I remember what she said…  her eyes they whispered.. and tears told the truth.. and voiced those thoughts unborn …  she breathes the words that put us under sail
Forgotten answers  .. every day she learns to speak … if we can listen.. she will teach us everything we need.
And when we leave her… she will wonder where we go…  through memory’s mirror .. we will teach her all she needs to know
The voice we hear is just beyond the veil… the flash of life  is just beyond our sight.. please tell me child just who you are and who you wish to be…  and all I’ll ever ask of thee is love….

I Remember What She Said

Crank

Landing

Andiamo            (c2024)

They say that on the titanic as the ship was going down
The band kept playing music even as they started to drown
People today wouldn’t be nearly as tough
I guess back in 1912 they just had the right stuff

If that was me, I wouldn’t have been so composed
If that was me, I would have screamed and said we’re hosed
If that was me, I’m not sure I would have been so stoic
If that was me, I don’t think I could have been that heroic

In the movie Leonaro DiCaprio let his girlfriend float on a door
As he braved the icy water until he couldn’t take it anymore
They say chivalry is dead but he had lots of it that night 
Doing what he could to make sure she’d be alright

Sometimes you just gotta go with the flow
Try to put on a good show
When life deals you a really bad hand
You can play it like those guys in the titanic band

All those people on the titanic
Did it ever occur to them
That in the future people who weren’t even born
And they’d watch a movie about them while they ate popcorn

If that was me, I wouldn’t have been so composed
If that was me, I would have screamed and said we’re hosed
If that was me, and I was a character in the movie about the Titanic
I’d be the guy who was running around the place  in a total panic

I’m glad to be around today
I don’t long for yesterday
Cause life back then was rough
And I’m not very tough

I have stood within the icy waters
a fever in my mind...as I rinse my riversand
for the specs of gold I find
and this river is a city
and the waters here are grand
but it's the people that I mine
as the river sand
could I rinse such folks in icy waters
and might I find riches taken off their hands
yea
cause a freeze might come upon us
and death living in our camps
as I sift among the people in the riversand
O ahhh
yea and the river is a city
and the waters here are grand
but it's the people that I mine
as the riversand
yea
and in the icy waters my feet could drift away
cause a fever took my mind
as I rinse my river sand
and while I'm churning
the water whispers...words of learning
rinse me I'm the riversand
I'll give U gold 
if you've got the sand
yea riversand riversand riversand

River Sand O River Sand
