Lonesome
Without you dear
Never lonely
I know you're always here
Melancholy, holly

Take
Take one last stab
Take a stab in the dark
Stab right through my heart

Sway
Sway the evening breeze
Sway
Persuade the need
Need
The need the need
Need to beleive
The need to believe
To be
To be
Oh, just be
Just be
Be
Be
Be
Just be
Be
Just be

To be or not to be

To Be

Forever
Music and lyrics by Nero Simon

Don’t know the meaning of a heavy heart
Never knew when to quit or where to start
Live my life with no regrets 
Roll my dice place my bets

I know this winning streak won’t last
Once you start digging up the remnants of the past
Here in June gone in December 
Forgetting more than I remember

I’m always asking you to stay
But you don’t fall in love that way
Laugh a little then you’re gone
Up all night and on the road before the dawn

Forever is a word I do not understand 
Running in circles was never the plan
Before you pay down on that shiny diamond ring
You’ll never hear this restless songbird sing 

I’m always asking you to stay
(I never promised you anything more than this)
But you don’t fall in love that way
(Why struggle to breathe when there’s plenty of air)
Laugh a little then you’re gone
(You know I always need to be moving along)
Up all night and on the road before the dawn

Forever

Verse 1
Beautiful sunset 
On a calm Friday eve
The garden keeps growing
Worked hard all damn week
Paid all my taxes
I’ll rest when I sleep
It’s time for the weekend
Turn it up & be free

Chorus
Work hard
That’s all you have to do
Every moment you create 
The futures up to you
Play hard
Each second won’t undo
Monday once again will hit
Normal rings so true

Verse 2
Unearthly sunrise
On a Saturday morn’
The world keeps revolving
Shut it out feel the warmth
Overcame spiteful demons
With only one love
Stand next to the speakers
The days almost done

Chorus Repeat

Verse 3
Quiet easy Sunday 
People tending their yards 
Peaceful in silence 
All anger wastes love
Upbeat when it’s needed
Never really frown
One week then repeat it
Don’t ask to turn it down

Chorus Repeat

Exhausting The Muse

The Time Before Too Long

We had 2 open mics mounted to the ceiling of our studio. Whenever we wanted to capture our progress on songs, we turned on the reel-to-reel. Here are some of those moments. Enjoy. (Circa early 90s)

CFB - Story Of My Life (Live)

La Leona

Embark on a musical journey into the world of Nero Simon and the Sunsetters. Listen to the songs. Classic, timeless yet somehow still modern. Songs that make you want to laugh, dance, sing, sometimes cry. A treasure chest of pure, simple honesty. Rare gems among a musical world of processed beats and auto-tune. Real music that rides like the wind.

From the lovingly heartbreaking song Treasure Chest, to the sweet harmony-laden ballad When the Lovin’s Good and the true crime on the high seas saga Starboard (Escape to Cozumel), Nero’s music is a reflection of the pleasurable atmosphere of this region. His music can be described as soft, folksy Americana born and raised in “los cayos.” Airy songs about love and adventure, reminiscent of the timeless soft rock classics of the 70s and 80s, but relevant and meaningful to music listeners today. When you spend time with Nero Simon and the Sunsetters you will, in the words sung by the great Levon Helm, “feel no pain, true as blue, right as rain.”

Nero Simon and his band now call Atlanta, GA their home base. Their debut full-length album Treasure Chest will be officially released March 2022 with the first single, also the album’s title track, slated to be released in advance.

Forever
