Good work with instrumentation and voice. You and Paul have captured a dark feeling.

Inge, very different direction on this one, but I think you accomplished what you were looking for.  Paul

This song is very unique and interesting to listen.

Thanks to Paul Dempsey for his great and wonderful lyrics. 

Let It Come To You
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
Sometimes I think you try too much
That’s not something you need to do
Some things can’t be felt until touched
You need to just let it come to you

(v2)
There are things you shouldn’t chase
The closer it is, the farther away it gets
You need to slow down your pace
Or you’ll end up with countless regrets

(chorus)
Just let it
Just let it come to you
No need to use force
Embrace the calm
Just stay the course
You may feel something new
When you let it come to you 

(v3)
Like spring flowers under the snow
Wait patiently for the coming of the sun
They embrace the warmth and grow
Until their time is done

(bridge)
They say
Good things come to those who wait
Something you’ll learn to appreciate 
That’s all you need to do
Just let it come to you

(chorus)
Just let it
Just let it come to you
No need to use force
Embrace the calm
Just stay the course
You may feel something new
When you let it come to you

Let It Come To You feat. Paul Dempsey

Upbeat 8th note triplet beat fantasy adventure featuring multiple overlaying  bass tracks and flute.

There is a place where the echoes ring
From a ballad of voices with songs to sing
Lost in the whispers of the shifting sands
There's a lost world they call Noman's Land

In The darkness there's a pale blue light
As a misty island slowly fades into sight

As dawn breaks though to the tropic sands
There's a new beginning on Noman's Land

The wind carries a secret with a silent cry
From a world suspended where the angels sigh
And in the silence there's a melody that's grand
It's a chorus of triumph for Noman's land

In a ship of dreams we set sail today
To Noman's land where all mysteries lay
The compass spins with our hearts on fire
Lost in the sea of freewill and desire

There is a place where the echoes ring
From a ballad of voices with songs to sing
Lost in the whispers of the shifting sands
There's a lost world they call Noman's Land

The Lost Love
Lyrics by Robert Stutzman (Audio Weapon)

VERSE 1
In the echoes of time the memories unfold
Left in the annals of a story never told
Living in the sunshine dancing in the rain
A memory of lost love not forgotten in pain

VERSE 2
Through the seasons of time emotions sublime
Your image in the sunset of a love so divine
But time played so fast and our song began to fade
And through the sands of time a haunting serenade  

CHORUS
With a long ending bittersweet refrain
In the fields of memory petals fall like rain
Whispers of your name still linger in the air
A chorus of voices of a love beyond repair

INSTRUMENTALPART

BRIDGE
A letter left unread a promise in the wind
A puzzle missing pieces can a broken heart mend
The light ran to shadow and as we drifted apart
Memories of first love forever etched in the heart

VERSE 3
In the still of the night there sounds a distant song
The memory of love now that everything is gone
Stars are my light as I look to the skies above
It will never be forgotten you were a first love

CHORUS
With a long ending bittersweet refrain
In the fields of memory petals fall like rain
Whispers of your name still linger in the air
A chorus of voices of a love beyond repair

The Lost Love feat. Robert Stutzman

Wonderful lyrics again from my friend Paul Dempsey. I am so thankful. 

Hope and Freedom
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
Hope is a four-letter word
When people are silenced
Hopeful whispers can be heard
Deep within the shadows
Darkness covers the oppressed
Where the threads of freedom
Are dangerously stressed 

(v2)
Cloudy with a threat of rain
Hope is carried in a child’s laugh
That momentarily eases the pain
Tomorrow is a hopeful vision
Of far better times
Yesterday is long gone
Hope is a day the sun shines

(chorus)
Freedom is a word that screams
Everyone knows what it means
There are no chains to bind 
All the pain is left behind 
Everyone can chase their dreams

(bridge)
Like so many birds on the wing
They all have a song to sing
Hope lives when the bells of freedom ring

(v3)
Their souls long for sleep
Dreams carry them with care
For the waters can run deep
Marching toward the horizon
There are less and less clouds
The march has drawn a crowd
All screaming freedom out loud

(chorus)
Freedom is a word that screams
Everyone knows what it means
There are no chains to bind 
All the pain is left behind 
Everyone can chase their dreams

Hope And Freedom feat. Paul Dempsey

Thank you very much for these lyrics, Paul. So true!

Face It
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
They say the eyes 
Are the windows to the soul
But the face is where
Life takes its toll

(v2)
Once smooth as silk
Now etched in deep lines
Each one a reminder
Of the good and bad times

(chorus)
Face it, without much warning
The lines began forming
Some appeared
When you were young
Now they are who you are
And what you’ve become

(v3)
There are smile lines
And lines of shame
There are worry lines
And lines of pain

(bridge)
Life leaves its mark
And it’s easy to trace
Coz your long journey
Is written all over your face

(chorus)
Face it, without much warning
The lines began forming
Some appeared
When you were young
Now they are who you are
And what you’ve become

Face It feat. Paul Dempsey

A big THANK YOU to Paul Dempsey for these lyrics. I love it very much.

Caving
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
It’s another weekend
I keep the lights down low
It’s my time to spend
And I let everyone know

(v2)
The glare from the screen
Can be tough on the eyes
So too it would seem
Is sorting the truth from lies

(chorus)
It’s my private time
To reclaim my sanity
It’s like a sudden reset 
And it’s life saving
Truly a safe haven
My time with no regret
I call it caving

(bridge)
When I sleep, it’s long and deep
I surrender, no questions asked
It’s my sanctuary, peace at last



(v3)
A weekend is too short a time
So caving is my way to survive
Coz I know it’s back to the grind
When Monday arrives

(chorus)
It’s my private time
To reclaim my sanity
It’s like a sudden reset 
And it’s life saving
Truly a safe haven
My time with no regret
I call it caving

Caving feat. Paul Dempsey

Impressive lyrics from Paul Dempsey, and I made a Rock Ballad of his words. 

My Heart Weeps (for the children)
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
My heart weeps for the children
Their innocence has been lost
My mind curses the ones
That pursue war at all costs

(v2)
Tiny eyes were never meant to see
The carnage of a senseless war
They’re young and unprepared
It’s not something they asked for

(chorus)
War
It’s not the first time
It won’t be the last time
But it’s certainly well past time
To think of a young child
Whose life is ready to unfold 
But now may never grow old

(bridge)
Wars are a pursuit of hate and power
And it brings the darkest hours
Children do not start wars
Yet they are casualties still
And probably always will

(chorus)
War
It’s not the first time
It won’t be the last time
But it’s certainly well past time
To think of a young child
Whose life is ready to unfold 
But now may never grow old

My Heart Weeps (for the children) feat. Paul Dempsey

New lyrics - new genre - Thanks to Paul. His words gave me a new music idea. 

Fog
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
The fog rolls in 
As I am looking out
Barely seeing 
The far horizon

(v2)
Shades of gray
Rest against the sky
But all I see
Is a gap that widens

(chorus)
Like fleeting thoughts
I struggle to catch you
I’m afraid you’ll fade
From my view
I’m breathless 
Chasing you

Instrumental

(v3)
I’m lost in that fog
A soupy dull gray
The distance grows
And you drift away

(bridge)
Fate has played its hand
And we both understand
But I’m sorry for our tomorrows 

(chorus)
Like fleeting thoughts
I struggle to catch you
I’m afraid you’ll fade
From my view
I’m breathless 
Chasing you

FOG feat. Paul Dempsey

Paul Dempsey did it again: He wrote wonderful lyrics for me.  Many thanks to Paul!

Moving Heartache To Heartache
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
Tell me, when will it ever end
How long will it take
How much love must I spend
Moving heartache to heartache 

(v2)
False love, when I’ve fallen
Getting back up was hard
Though my heart was calling
I still let down my guard

(chorus)
For some reason I attract losers
I don’t know it until they show it
But it never fails
Just another mistake
Moving heartache to heartache 

(bridge)
I hope I can find
Someone loving and kind
That wants to see me shine
But all I ever get
Are the losers I’d want to forget

(v3)
I need to look before I leap
Shallow love doesn’t give it takes
I need it to be true and deep
To avoid any more heartaches

(chorus)
For some reason I attract losers
I don’t know it until they show it
But it never fails
Just another mistake
Moving heartache to heartache

Moving Heartache To Heartache feat. Paul Dempsey

Wonderful lyrics again from Paul Dempsey. His words went deep in my heart while production. 

Do I Occupy Your Thoughts
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California

(v1)
Do I occupy your thoughts
When you lay down to sleep
Am I in one of those dreams
That you’ve chosen to keep

(v2)
I hope you dream of our good times
Those times still bring me pleasure
It’s like opening an ancient chest
And finding you as the treasure

(chorus)
We were good together
The love we shared was not a phase 
Yes, they were my best days
And that fire we started
Was more than a blaze
Tell me
Do I occupy your thoughts

(v3)
Do I enter your mind
When something reminds you of me
Or maybe just a passing memory
That no one else is allowed to see

(bridge)
You flood my mind when I least expect it
And there is no way that I can reject it
Guess it’s the price I have to pay
For letting you slip away

(chorus)
We were good together
The love we shared was not a phase 
Yes, they were my best days
And that fire we started
Was more than a blaze
Tell me
Do I occupy your thoughts

FOG feat. Paul Dempsey
