I was in a men's meeting one morning, thinking about a new tune I had written and loved that had no words. Suddenly, it started pouring outside and the lyric flowed out of me.

She Makes My Heart Dance

I Am The Rain

Little Things

The loss felt when your child goes away to college and you are faced with an empty nest.

Mona Dena

My Eyes Can’t Hold These Tears

Oh wait! I forgot that you were gone
Just an empty bed
I see, the life that once was there
An unraveling thread

My eyes can’t hold these tears
Pouring down full of years
Weeping in my ears
No, my eyes can’t hold these tears

Can’t wait, for the emptiness to pass
Better it happens soon
My heart, suspended in mid air
Reminiscent tomb 

My eyes can’t hold these tears
Pouring down full of years
Weeping in my ears
No, my eyes can’t hold these tears

Quiet magnifies my grief
Deafening loss repeats
Where’s the sliver of light
Underneath my feet?

My eyes can’t hold these tears
Pouring down full of years
Weeping in my ears
No, my eyes can’t hold these tears

My Eyes Can't Hold These Tears

A happy duet about love!  Hope it brings you a smile!

My Eyes Can't Hold These Tears
