A tiny light

Not Finished Yet

New Creation

A lone traveler pulls off a desert highway at dusk and discovers a glowing well that promises more than it gives. Round and Round the Wishing Well is a modern country-Americana story about the traps we fall into when we’re thirsty for meaning, connection, or escape.

What looks like salvation becomes a mirage ... a cycle that keeps pulling you back even when you know better.  Pedal steel, dusty-road acoustics, and a haunted blue glow set the scene for a song about illusion, addiction, and the moment you finally walk away.  If you’ve ever felt stuck in a loop you didn’t see coming, this one’s for you.

I was rollin' down the highway, had my whole life planned
Guitar in the backseat, road map in my hand
Then I seen that blue light shinin' by the road
Pulled on over to take a look, man I shoulda known

Now I'm stuck by this wish'n well
Thought it was heaven, this is hell
Keep on drinkin' from it but dry as bone
Highway's callin' me back home

Round and round the wishing well
It's a bad deal as far as I can tell
Round and round this living hell
Can't break free, can't break the spell

Round and round the wishing well
I traded my freedom for this living hell
Gotta get away as far as I can tell
Round and round the wishing well

It showed me faces smilin' from the bottom down
Said they'd found the secret in this thirsty podunk town
Every voice was whisperin' "why doncha stay a while"
Should've seen the prison bars underneath those smiles

Round and round the wishing well
It's a bad deal as far as I can tell
Round and round this living hell
Can't break free, can't break the spell

Round and round the wishing well
I traded my freedom for this living hell
Gotta get away as far as I can tell
Round and round the wishing well

One day I realized, this ain't water at all
Just a devils mirror showin' me my fall
I hear the engine runnin'  and waiting down the road
Time to bust out of this spell and lighten up my load

Found my keys buried in the sandy ground
Left that blue light glowing and left that podunk town
Highway's out there waitin' aint nothin more to fear
Cleared my eyes and mind, now time to kick it into gear. 

No more drinking from that well
Broke my chains, escaped that spell
Got my thirst back, got my soul
Highway's taking me back home

Round and round the wishing well
It's a bad deal as far as I can tell
Round and round this living hell
Can't break free, can't break the spell

Round and round the wishing well
I broke these chains, escaped this living hell
Found my freedom, now I'm doing well
Round and round the wishing well

Wishing Well

She's my woman
I love her so much
She's my woman
I love her touch

She's so good to me
Makes me smile every day
She's so good to me
I love her beautiful ways

That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt
That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt

I'm in love
With her smile
I'm in love
With her look
I'm in love
She cooks

She's the best mamma
To our son
She's the best mamma
I'm in love

That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt
That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt

If I'm a strong man
It's because of her
If I'm a strong man
She fixed my hurt

She's so sweet
She's thirty-somethin' years old
Well, that butt?
Dam! It's just right
That's my gold!

That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt
That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt

I'm in love
Yes I am
I'm in love
I feel like a man

I'm in love
It's me again
I'm in love
This time I win

That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt
That woman has a beautiful heart
That woman has a beautiful butt

Music and lyrics are like nitro and glycerin (TNT). I wrote a song the first time I picked up a guitar at 12. I love most 70s-90s rock and many popular songs. Also love indie and new artists! Ihave collaborated with Brad Anderson, Sean Thompson, Blue LeMeilleur, Kim Westwood, and Charles Rees and always look for new people!. I usually start a song with lyrics and then figure out music.

Thanks for listening!!
