V1
Life’s random sieges
Hone in on their mark
Make summoning joy
Especially hard
When betrayals and grief
Have broken me down
To the bone

V2
Days without sweetness
Hang dreary and cold
Make summoning joy
A strain on the soul
‘N although it’s a feather
Gratitude feels
Like a stone

Bridge
Yet each time I question
The reasons I stay
‘N don’t open that door
With its one-purpose key
Seems the sun right on cue
Dives in through the window
Dripping its light on the hardwood floor
And I feel an urge to fall to my knees
And lick it as if it were honey

V3
Life’s taunting briefness
Can badger and tease
Make summoning joy
Absurd at the least
Yet my spirit still soars
Responding to joy
That’s on loan

Licking the Light (Feat. Donna Devine)

You were my friend

Written in 1985, a sad tale of rejection and loss. Recorded in 2021 as an early attempt at using studio software.
Lyrics:

Why did you run

You’re presence still stays
In the room and on the things that you’ve touched
And I’ve tried so hard not to love 

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul 

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
Yeah And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me? 

Have you any idea of the hurt and pain that remains? 
And there must be a release but I will not run away

But it’s so hard to expel you from my soul

So Why, tell me why did you run?
(Why did you run?)
You never told me but you told everyone 
(You told everyone)
Yeah And you told them that you no longer loved me
(You said you don’t love me)
And I need you so bad so why can’t you see
That I need you so why can’t you need me?

Lyrics:

Have I actually side stepped 
Through some strange dimensions?
Unaware, travelling through rifts in time
Without directions?

It would sure explain some things
Like pure perfection timings
For instance how we met,
What predetermined paths were set?

When my universe collided with your own,
Our introduction was intense
I wondered if you were my clone
Cause only you make this much sense

Yours is the voice 
That reached out to my soul
Falling in love with you wasn’t a choice
It was just inevitable

Regardless of reality
Still feeling so unreal
I’ve found a realm of quality
You are the real deal

But had there been any distraction
There may have been no interaction 
We never would have met that way 
That blows my mind, I'm now your fiancée

If circumstances altered,
The meeting would have faltered

It makes me wonder: how many of me did not meet one of you?

If I’m in the 
Best timeline
And I believe 
That’s credible
You’re by my side
Though realms collide
To make that possible

Between Two Sides

By the rivers of a strange land
They have asked me to sit down,
By these rivers, I softly cried
When I remembered my home town.

Used to have a little fountain,
By whose side we'd gently play,
Used to have a little window,
By whose sill we'd talk and stay.

Then I slowly made my way here,
And was asked to write a song ...
How shall I now write and sing,
Since all I know has gone wrong?

Then they asked me: "Praise His Name!"
And they pushed me on my knees ...
How shall I open my lips
When, on them, my tears just freeze?

By the rivers of a strange land
They have asked me to sit down,
By these rivers, I softly cried
When I remembered you, my love.

Rivers Of A Strange Land (the acoustic version)

Indie singer-songwriter with poetic lyrics and soothing soundscapes.
