Halfway Between Here and New Orleans ©
Original - Riff Beach ( RiffWerx - 2016, Revised 2022 )
Lady Luck…..
Well, she left me out in Reno
Just one more throw
Before the red-eye home
You know I just wanna’ hop a streetcar
Or, maybe, take a shiny limousine
I’m so tired of being crammed into airplanes
That kinda’ travel just leaves me feeling mean
(Chorus)
Well, there’s sure something in living sunrise to sunset…..
But, I’m not sure exactly what it means?
And, just some thoughts on my way back to you
Halfway - between here - and New Orleans
Remember that time down on Decatur
Or, when we first met on Magazine?
We knew that sooner - or - later
We’d end up halfway between here….
…..and New Orleans
And somewhere over the Mighty Mississippi
You know you’re right there in all my dreams
All the time we’ll spend together
Halfway between Here…. and ….. New Orleans

不条理 / distance
===================
窓に映る　止めどない
戯言時系列に　紛れて
「不条理」と　綴られた
呟きを見た

いつからか　僕らは
譲り合いに　疲れて
見放すもの　頼るもの
呟いた

逢えなければ　見失ったやさしさが
逢えなければ　ささやかな願いごとが
逢えなければ　ほんとうのつながりが
逢えなければ　逢えなければ

いつからか　僕らは
有象無象を　恐れて
棄てるもの　譲るもの
呟いた

逢えないから　見失ったやさしさが
逢えないから　ささやかな願いごとが
逢えないから　ほんとうのつながりが
逢えないから　逢えないから

窓に映る　止めどない
戯言時系列に　紛れて
「不条理」と　綴られた
呟きを見た

呟きを見た

不条理 / distance

About the Song – “Paths” A soulful jazz reflection on life’s journey. This song is a tribute to the roads we walk, the people we meet, and the lessons we learn along the way. It’s not a farewell, but a gentle reminder that every ending is also a beginning. Let it comfort, uplift, and maybe even surprise you. We’ll meet again.

"PATHS" - After going home: we'll meet again!

Pour qui je compte     ( Translated following the French text )

Choeurs :      Liora 

Il y a des carnets
Et des mots égarés
Tout au fond des tiroirs
Et qu'on n'relit jamais
Parce qu'on est en retard
Et qu'y a toujours quelqu'un
Dont il faut prendre soin
Et ce quelqu'un, c'est jamais soi.

Dans la frileuse Flandre,
Sous les chênes et les hêtres,
Il y a ce tas de cendre
Après un feu de fête.
Au milieu, des canettes,
Des souv'nirs jetés là
Qu'on ramass' les yeux las
Pour les trier plus tard, peut-être.

Alors on compte sur ses doigts.
Un' seul' main suffit quand on s'dit :
Pour qui je compte vraiment ?

Les glacières dans le coffre,
La guitare dans sa housse,
On se serre un peu fort.
Un dernier regard pour
Les lits de mousse tassée,
Et les arbres muets
Mêm' quand l' bûch'ron les couche.
Et chacun r'part de son côté.

Alors on compte sur ses doigts.
Un' seul' main suffit quand on s'dit:
Pour qui je compte vraiment ?

Et puis quand la clairière,
S'éclaircit plus encore,
Qu'on sait par cœur le bois,
Ses pièges, ses réconforts,
Assis sur les souches
On se parle à soi-même
En dénombrant ses doigts.
On se demande : Qui m'aime ? Qui m'aime ?
Et une seule main suffit. 

For whom I count on

There are notebooks
And lost words
At the bottom of drawers
That we never reread
Because we're late
And there's always someone
We have to take care of
And that someone is never ourselves.

In chilly Flanders,
Under the oak and beech trees,
There is a pile of ashes
After a festive bonfire.
In the middle, cans,
Memories thrown away
That we pick up with weary eyes
To sort through later, perhaps.

So we count on our fingers.
One hand is enough when we ask ourselves:
Who do I really count on?

The coolers in the trunk,
The guitar in its case,
We hug a little tighter.
One last look at
The beds of packed moss,
And the silent trees
Even when the lumberjack cuts them down.
And everyone goes their separate ways.

So we count on our fingers.
One hand is enough when we say to ourselves:
Who do I really count on?

And then when the clearing
Grows even brighter,
When we know the woods by heart,
Its traps, its comforts,
Sitting on the stumps
We talk to ourselves
Counting our fingers.
We ask ourselves: Who loves me? Who loves me?
And one hand is enough.

Pour qui je compte. avec Philippe J

There is light at the end of the darkened tunnel. No matter what happens in life hopefully there is a way to find happiness! 




Yon wind howls o'er the craggy hill
 The heather bends But it won’t be still 
A wee bairn cries doon by the burn 
Auld ghosts linger They ne’er return  

Dinnae fash The stars will guide 
The tide it turns Nae need tae hide  

Under the heather moon We’ll bide 
Wi' secrets whispered Side by side 
Oor hearts beat wild Wi' love sae true
 Forever lost under skies sae blue  

Auld stones watch fae the ancient glen 
Whisperin' tales o’ forgotten men 
The bracken dances A fiery sea 
Hame feels far But ye're here wi’ me  

Under the heather moon We’ll bide 
Wi' secrets whispered Side by side 
Oor hearts beat wild Wi' love sae true 
Forever lost under skies sae blue  

The world may crumble Hills may fall 
But in yer arms I’ll brave it all 
The loch may freeze The trees may bow
 But love like this It won’t break now

Under the heather moon .mp3

I always liked Van Morrisons Music. This is my version of Brown Eyed Girl  2025 a special tribute

Verse 1
In autumn, from the tree of mysteries, the wind tore off sixteen leaves
On six it said "we will meet"
The other ten told many things

Verse 2
The trunk of that tree was skin
That we caressed mutually
We merged our bellies by night
And we became one, that time

Pre-chorus
It's true we were born separate, but destiny brought us together, you see

Chorus
We live this story between the two of us
Destinies that come together in a dream
Loves defined by a God
We are blessed for this
Undoubtedly nothing will separate us
A silent pact that we fulfill
We will love each other for eternity
We will be with love like two children

Verse
Now a truth is clear
I have two leaves from that tree here
On one our names are written
On another it says I am for you

Outro
The others tell that we will be together....
Until the end...

Español

Verso 1

En otóño, désde el árbol de misterios,
el viento le arrancó diecíseis hojas
En seis decía "nos conoceremos"
Las otras diez contaban muchas cosas.

Verso 2

El tronco de ese árbol era piel
Que nos acariciámos mutuamente
Fundimos por la noche nuestros vientres
Y nos hicimos uno, aquella vez

Verdad es que nacimos separados, pero el destino nos juntó, ya ves.

Coro

Vivimos esta historia entre entre los dos.
Destinos que se juntan en un sueño
Amores definidos por un Dios
Estamos bendecidos para esto.

Sin duda nada nos separará
Un pacto silencioso que cumplimos
Nos amarémos por la eternidad.
Seremos con amor como dos niños.

Verso.

Ahora queda clara una verdad
Dos hojas dése árbol tengo aquí,
En una están escrito nuestros nombres
En otro dice que soy para ti.

Outro

Las otras cuentan que estaremos juntos.... Hasta el fin..

Como dos niños

Como dos niños ( Like two children )

this is another track , written, played and recorded while Netta was visiting from Norway….cheers for having a listen and your support👍

Who Can Say

Remind me of that song again
The one that has the saddest end
you know it too, you sang it to me
Long ago

Got me thinking about that time.
When I was yours and I had mine
Now we just live somewhere in the past
mmmm

Whatever happened to those days?
Nothing ever stays the same
Could it be the one that got away?
Who can say?

I could plan for days and days
There must be a thousand ways
That I could try and make you see
That you belong here with me

I dont really worry now
tomorrow made up it’s mind
And today feels like an only friend
and yesterday left us behind
again

Who Can Say

love you through Infinity

trust-and-loyalty (2).m4a

Cold air creeping in
Breath like smoke it spins
Whispers linger thin
The moon hides its grin

Shadows embrace the night
Hold me close
Hold me tight
Lost in the pale moonlight
Shadows embrace the night

Branches scratch the sky
Stars blink then say goodbye
The silence starts to cry
A ghostly lullaby

Fingers trace the unseen
Chilled and sharp
Serene

Shadows embrace the night
Hold me close
Hold me tight
Lost in the pale moonlight
Shadows embrace the night

Dancing with the dark
Flames flicker
Then depart
My heart beats a question mark
Where does the light embark

Shadows embrace the night .mp3

Ah, nostalgia.  Maybe the older we get, the more we keep longing for days of our past.  Just some sweet memories of my childhood days living as share-croppers in the Louisiana Delta near the Mississippi River.
