Hi Paul i seem to miss to many tunes these days following to many. This as a really nice feel to it and the acoustic sounds really warm . Enjoyed the listen 👍

That I discover this song 8 months after release: A great luck for me!

web you create music it can take decades to develop your own style that sound like you

A good song, and the lyrics make it an important one.  Nice, Paul.

Cool lyrics, earthy vocals and smooth acoustic sound.

I like your songwriting and your voice very much! keep on rocking ;-)

WHEN THEY THINK OF HOME 

When she thinks of home and him so far away
The miles she has roamed looking for a place to stay
When she thinks of him, a bug in their eye
There he stands alone against a red-filled sky
With bombs blasting, terror passing, refusing to give into fear
Times testing, nerves stretching, how could it happen here?

With babies in tow and him staying behind
With them she had to go, his face frozen in time
The land they are from, a many-tortured past
They can't let them come, and take it all back
With tanks rolling, children holding tight to their mothers’ hands
Hearts pounding, sirens sounding, it never was their plan

When they think of home and the wheat fields of gold
Their children may never know the beauty they did hold
When they think of home, the cherished hallowed ground
The words they never come, except a silent sound
With pain waiting, no debating to keep on the fight
Sky flashing, people packing all through the night
All through the night

Paul Stephanides
