First cover of the year. I missed singing so much, and I've been in love with this song for such a long time now, I felt now's the time to finally make a cover of it.

I hope you like it. x

Winds Of Music, Keep Blowing

Wayfaring Stranger Johnny Cash cover by Naomi Pruitt and Sara Darnell

I wrote this song while sitting in the library at Hospice the day my mother-in-law, Velma Green passed away. This is song is dedicated to Velma Green. She was a strong, spiritual and Steadfast woman. She never wavered in her beliefs and I loved that lady dearly. Her love and loyalty for her family was fierce. She spoke the truth with conviction and never forgot to say, "I love you.". She was an example to me and we all miss her greatly.

Persuassive Lips

This song is an upbeat and happy tune with heavy lyrics describing a heartache that seems impossible to bear. The song ends on a happy note as she imagines two very different paths of life convening, calling a truce and living happily ever after. One fan and fellow music lover m.me/bethwootton.9 , stated: "Beautiful song and voice!  The sound is deceptively light like the fizzing of bubbles in your coke but the meaning speaks of inner strength in the battle of life!  Kudos to her and I hope she keeps it up."

 My new song....I've been playing with sounds and ideas this past week. The other night my emotions were on high beam... I went to my dear friend's house to decompress in his music room, where out of all the places in the world, my creativity can flow freely and my soul can rest. I turned on his laptop and let it flow...here is the result...enjoy.
Let's Dance the Rain Away
     CHORUS 1 G You might see me  hopping along from C puddle to puddle , skipping G what's going wrong passing a fumble on my C own to feet not skipping to your beat cuz for Am too long baby you D wrote my song.  Melody of C tears to cry for so Am long  love sick C harmony playing for me to D dance the rain G away
Verse 1  ….puppet on four strings of  words with Em your cruel sting, just a marionette with Am no wings, I was drowning in a D jumble I Em believed to be  C love but was just Am  sorrow smiling D sunshine, C telling me things will get better  D tomorrow... but  C tomorrow  never D came and I'm G left…
CHORUS #2
..G.Hopping along from puddle to puddle , skipping C what's going wrong don't wanna fumble, dancing C to the Moon on my own two feet, G feeling my groove, skipping over your beat for C my own jingle jangle cuz for  too long Am baby, I chased your D angle, with tangled C ...tears D to strangle my G heart 
Verse 2
NOW WHEN I look up your there Em around my sound your harmony C taking on a life of Am it's own , dancing D around what I C already  found, it's. Little too Am loud or is it D late our fate isn't that just like C love  and Am life to  hand over  our D heart’s C desire Dwhen we're already G gone

Verse 3
    Missing you like crazy on this night no fight or Em flight are  in my bones of melancholy  Am dread, just the pages of my  favorite D book called  you but I can't find the story of C us in these pages Am new I want the old D familiar tune I wrote with  C my crazybaby Am love C to  to D dance the G night away
CHORUS 3 NOW ...
G You might see me  hopping along from C puddle to puddle , skipping  what's going wrong G passing a fumble on my own to feet but still C find myself G skipping to your beat cu for so Am long baby we D wrote our song.  Melody of C memories create such a pretty Am love song  harmonies of our C journeys far and long  Am playing C for us to D dance the rain G away
Let's Dance the Rain Away Lyrics

Dance the Rain Away

Dance The Rain Away

To Another Day....

Baby let's be happy even when
 We  don't Have a whole lot
We don't need more money,  babe,
when we've got what we've got
Like campin' out late, 
Summer Nights
Swimming in the lake, skippin' rocks
Baseball games, jumpin' off the dock
Runnin hand in hand in the rain

Lying on our hill, breeze in the air
Dogs to walk, tease and talk
All the fun and laughter we share

Showin mercy and grace 
Yet we could write a book
On mistakes we've made
But if love conquers all, than baby
I know it's not too late.

But there's a battle of pride between us
Clash of wills
A need for love
But we're just too stubborn still

CHORUS
Please dont hide us under a bushel, No!
Or trade our truth for lies
Set wild free in our hearts
Your love still castin visions over my eyes
Oh my love....
This is my prayer....
You will see my heart....and I know that I still care

I WANT something outside my own way
If we werent so stubborn, baby,
Would we still be ok?

Today is too short
Forever is a dream
I want the mountain tops
I want the ditches, baby
And all that's in between
So kets carve a niche
And rest there please
It would be a shame 
To throw away gifts 
More precious than we believe

CHORUS
Please dont hide us under a bushel, No!
Or trade our truth for lies
Set wild free in our hearts
Your love still castin visions over my eyes
Oh my love....
This is my prayer....
You will see my heart....and I know that I still care

Cuz its you I want
Its you I need
Its you I crave
You I breathe
Its you I hunger for
You I desire
You who will forever set my heart on fire
