Like these sad lyrics very much . The music brings some kind of mystery . Very original work Mike :)

wonderful song, Mike! great lyrics, delivered with such emotion!

Emotional tribute to those who shaped our lives.  My notices come via email now...another old friend.   Thanks for this Mike.

Fears like waves

I went back in time and asked my toddler self to do some vocals for a track. 

Ok... I found a recording of my brother and I that was originally on a cassette tape (I was between1.5 and 3 years old when the recordings were made). It was fun to go through it! We sang a lot my Mum says. It's not Mother's Day until May in Finland but why not celebrate it twice - in the UK is is Mother's Day today. So this one is dedicated to my Mum 😀 

Also, my toddler self is telling me... you can do this again. 

This song was born quickly in one evening and this is the first Garageband draft version.

Children skipping in the street
Each happy as a child can be
Women dressed up in their best
Wearing tulips on their chests
And people talking, never stopping
Lover’s walking, almost hopping
Spring is here, and so is life
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye night

Water’s flowing
Warm wind blowing
Daffodils growing
Spring is here
Sun is shining
Lover’s binding
All unwinding
Spring is here

Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, and I am laughing
Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, it’s finally here

Dogs and cats are playing games
In the warmth of April rain
Country churches ringing bells
Captured by a magic spell
And people talking, never stopping
Lover’s walking, almost bopping
Spring is here, and so is light
Goodbye sorrow, goodbye fright

Water’s flowing
Warm wind blowing
Daffodils growing
Spring is here
Sun is shining
Lover’s binding
All unwinding
Spring is here
 
Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, and I am laughing
Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, it’s finally here

Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, and so I’m laughing
Spring is here, and I’m so happy
Spring is here, it’s really here
Spring is here
Spring is here, Ohhhh-ho-o

Spring is Here

I'm Tired
Lyrics and Music by Mike Krath

I’m tired of waking up to read,
About people who used to be,
Who I grew up with 
you see,
And now have started their eternity.
People who’ve made their history,
As brief as that could be.

Here’s to the woman who gave me a chance
To see the beauty of this life's dance.
But now is only a memory,
Of what life was and still should be. 

I see them walking in the street,
The young making their new ends meet,
I once was there, but am still,
Watching it all through a window sill. 

What life was is no longer a thrill,
No longer a thrill.

I’m tired
And just want to rest this head,
Find a place to rest this head 
There’s not much left that can be said,
The light is dimming,
Time to leave. 
And I just want to sleep. 
Just rest my head.

I'm Tired

For we do not have (Let us therefore come forward) (Heb. 4:15-16)

I’m a song-writer who enjoys creating music of any genre.

My son recently introduced me to A.I. and taught me how to do covers of my previously released non-A.I. music. Since I've never considered myself a performer (except playing with worship bands at church or solo-piano at a rehab center) using A.I. is right up my alley.

Since I've  exhausted using my previously released music for A.I. covers, I now compose music in a DAW, rip to a wave file, and make an A.I. cover of this wave file. I then write lyrics to the A.I. music. It takes around 100 A.I. iterations to complete the lyrics and get a style I'm happy with.  

Brief Bio: Lived more than a quarter of my life overseas (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan). Each country gave me an appreciation for different types of music plus probably why I get bored easily in sticking with one genre or another.
