How many times have we laughed  
And how many times have we cried  

And entrusted our words to the wind  
Like a disenchanted melody  

But we have always found each other  
Almost as if it were a dream  
Almost as if it were a sign  

In our love nest  
A soft cloud above the world  
In our love nest  
Touching the heart deep within  
In our love nest  
Love nest  
Love nest  

And I always see happy your smile  
You are like a drop of rain that refreshes the face  
I feel your scent your scent that surrounds me like an embrace of love like a wave  

That lifts me up and then sinks me  
And my heart beats so so so so  

In our love nest  
A soft cloud above the world  
In our love nest  
Touching the heart deeply  
In our love nest  
Love nest  
Love nest  

I think of you constantly of you  
Even though sometimes you're far away yet incredibly close  
You're my first thought in the morning  
And during the day it's pleasant to think of your company  
And I always wait for our moment to fly fly away  

In our love nest  
A soft cloud above the world  
In our love nest  
Touching the heart deeply  
In our love nest  
Love nest  
Love nest

LOVE NEST   (reworked)

Managing the process of getting old. is complicated , but adapting to change is essential if you want a fulfilling new chapter. I see some people ignoring the ageing process ( like me ) and I see others decline rapidly into sitting on the sofa and wearing their age almost as a badge of honor. I'm no expert, but  feel that the one thing you should do is go way out of your comfort zone , even at the risk of making a fool our of yourself – its now or never !. I'm told, the basics are to focus on health and wellness ( I focus on keeping as fit as possible) which includes medical care ,staying active ,intellectual engagement and social interaction, Then take care of your finances and reduce stress before looking to find a new purpose and identity. You might also consider the spiritual side of life.Common amongst the elderly is a a loss of friends, a fear of decline and feeling invisible. I'm a great believer in ‘we don’t stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing !’ and ‘we are always the same age inside'. The first one perfectly describes my attitude to life, which is why I’ve taken up boxing ! – gulp. It’s probably worth bearing in mind that 22% of 60-year-olds will die before they are 85 I ( i.e. one in five) What about sky diving,?, become a digital influencer (I have a big social media following ) ,start a business, travel the world ( I’m away 4 months of the year) or write a book or two ( I've written 15 books and 150 songs !) Keep away from ‘I'm too old for this’ ‘I don’t understand kids today', 'my body is falling apart, ,’you just wait until you get to my age’ or worst still; ‘don't mind me, I'm just an old man’ -yuk !What this is all about is , a cry for reassurance, seeking relevance, coping with mortality and a way to opt out of activities. Your only as old as those you feel !
Just d0 it as the man at Nike would say.
My song abort getting older’ starts with ‘You bet your ass, I’m blue. Is anybody at my age still happy, like who?, You bet your ass, I’m blue. Not sure I can see this through. Not sure I can pretend to be cool. Not sure, I can keep playing the fool’ Funny that the main character believes that nobody is happy at his age ? For me this decade is probably my happiest, I’m  free of debt and  responsibility, my grown-up kids are doing great and I’m as fit as fiddle. Our singer does not think he will live much longer ( he's 60 now ), ‘You bet your ass, I’m blue Don’t think  I will live past sixty-two’ – optimistic chap ! He then goes on to sing, ‘Not sure I can pretend  to be cool. Not sure, I can keep playing the Fool’. Pretending to be cool I think is a lost cause and I don’t see any need to play the fool all the time. Just be yourself man -  and man up! Then we hear about his real ambitions, ‘Wanna get chased by police choppers. Go out on the town, to wild parties. I wanna feel like a sex vending machine. Fall in love with a young chick, then sing’ – not sure this is the answer but everyone to their own. Not sure I would know where to to find a wild party and I don’t think we have a police helicopter in our town. Crikey there’s more, ‘Live on the beach, become a hippie. Get myself a college degree, wear designer stubble, and cute trainers. Pretend I’m young, if I meet strangers’ – like the idea of getting a degree but I don’t think there is much point in pretending you're young- you can fool some of the people……I do like it when he sings ,’ I now confident to travel on my own Don’t listen to folks, who just moan’  - yep that’s how I feel. Then he shouts he wants to go  out with a bang ( he could live another 25 years !), ‘Hope I get diagnosed at a dinner party Heart attack, cancer, I’ll ignore baby’ – I would go along with that also but not yet man ! He ends with ‘You bet your ass, I’m blue. Not sure I can see this through’ – of course you can stop being a moany old thing ! That’s all folks !

You Spoke to Me

One day you spoke to me, and nothing's been the same.
Drew me in and we learned together,
Never rushed to comprehend,
Judging  we never did  in the end.

You told me all about you,
And we found an honest heart.
Can't believe my luck,
Cupid's arrow found its mark!

Tap, tap, tap, then one day you spoke to me, 
The ticking clocks were loud and lonely hearts in the crowd. 
But you there just for me.
Endless days ran together but I didn't care.

You told me all about you.
I don't think I can live without you.
Endless days run together,
I hope they never end.
You told me all about you.


You Spoke To Me

This composition was first set to a more aggressive style with the Comanche as a basis for a Prelude for Orchestra.  With some help from Suno.com and work in the studio it is now rearranged to an interesting compromise with a merging of the thematic material transported and reformulated.  Jazz elements deliver an interesting interplay with the Western native American themes (why not?). The Rocky Mountains were called the Shining Mountains by the Ute (an Indigenous people of the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau in present-day Utah, western Colorado, and northern New Mexico., U.S.A.). 

Visions of the Shining Mountains

I wrote these songs, but told AI how I want it to be sung and how I want the instrumentals to be because I Don't like my voice.. and I don't have money for instruments...hope you enjoy!
