Love's Gone ... (It's too late)

Love's Gone (Acoustic Session)

A song about the northern lights and their mysterious appearance in unusual circumstances a long, long time ago...

I hear the cries of winter I cant stand to see the sight
Like waves they came crashing but now lie  still there in the night

Its far too late for many lying on once peaceful land
I wonder who if any fell directly by my hand

The morning brings a shiver as I lay behind the  wall
But I cant stay much longer as I hear the fallen call.

Shadows cast by the setting sun another days work is done
Close my eyes but I can't sleep through the long cold night

I feel the light burning in my eyes as I gaze at the distant sky
All around me I can see the northern lights.

Northern Lights

Potrei sbagliarmi
Potrei ricordare male però 
Queste cose le ho già viste 
(le ho già viste) lo so 

Se non vado errato
Son passato varie volte qua
Una musica nota 
Mi suona sconosciuta 

Anche tu straniera del giorno
Amica della notte
Mi confondi coi tuoi mille volti
E il tuo profumo 

Sogno/realtà 
Dimmi tu che differenza 
(che differenza) fa
Una parte di me
Ha bisogno (bisogno) di te 

I miei occhi
Sfumature del cielo scrutano
È proprio vero o no 

La terra umida
Che tocco con le mie mani 
Ci sarà ci sarà domani 

Anche tu amica del giorno
Straniera della notte
Mi confondi coi tuoi mille volti
E il tuo profumo 

Sogno/realtà 
Come pagine di un libro
Letto per metà
Una parte di me
Ha bisogno (bisogno) di te 

Sogno/realtà 
Dimmi tu che differenza 
(che differenza) fa
Una parte di me
Ha bisogno (bisogno) di te

After a gorgeous Easter long weekend here, my thoughts have turned to summer. Not quite there yet, but enough warmth to think of gardens, colour and...the arrival of ominous smog and haze of urban centers. I relocated from the urban sprawl of what we called "The Big Smoke" of the Toronto area.  I think, the threat of air pollution, especially in the sweltering heat of summer, always makes me mindful of the thin line and tipping point (1.5 degrees C) of global warming. The summer of 2023 left much of North America reeling from the haze of smoke from hundreds of wildfires in Canada's north.Wearing masks to protect, not from Covid, from PM (particulate Matter of 2.5 in Ontario! Toronto was the worst for particulate matter in the world in June 2023)

Haze
    I love the haze of summer … ah
    1) Short path to the shore
    Secret place, we’ve been before
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Quiet time for you and me
    On the beach near to the sea
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Ooh – ah…This where the buck stops (x4)
    EVERYBODY’S DREAMING…OF MORE SUNNY DAYS
    BUT CAN’T YOU SEE WE’RE STEAMING …IN THE HAZE?
    2) How long can it last
    Relegated to the past
    Something once forgotten never found
    Just take a little care
    I want to feel it’s always there
    Something once forgotten never found
    Ooh – ah    (x12) 
    (INST)  
    (CHORUS)
    3) Warm days, running dry
    Changing times, a leaden sky
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Radiation, in the sand       
    A lasting legend, to our land     
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Ha…ya…ya…ze!  (x3)
    (CHORUS)
    I loved the haze of summer …

About the dissolution of a band, particularly my bands!!Trying to keep one together is futile, been “ cancelled “ a few times… not for inerrant behavior, but because of stated beliefs.., just a drummer who likes creating and recording hopefully cool tunes… I am nobody’s final judge… just a prompter on side stage… don’t endorse everything, but I am far from perfect.., but I profess and know, One who is… wish the cookie was still in tact, and we put it up on the refrigerator, for all to gaze at… trying to make new cookies, these days….I think it’s kinda like if Kurt Cobain sang with The Knaack! Could b wrong.., still hope you enjoy!!🤩🤩🤩😎😎😎

The wind of hope
Rushes through the night 
Like a swift bird passing by 
And a love light shines 
Silver in the distance
Where fatigue and sadness leave
And a need appears

I’m waiting to meet you 
On an endless road
With a free wind blowing even more

And you are a stranger
You are one of those
That could help inflame
inflame my soul

Now sadness plays the blues 
Without notes or beats
With a strong desire to erase 
Blank faces in the street


What you perceive 
Has just cooled inside
But the past, like a dream
Will always warm your cry 


I’m waiting to meet you 
On an endless road
With a free wind blowing even more

And you are a stranger
You are one of those
That could help inflame
inflame my soul

Endless Road
