Starise Volume 3

Celtic Playlist

This is a compilation of music I wrote that has a retro flavor.

Celtic Starise -Pop Compositions

The Dancing Harp

 Check out the image of the sun. Apparently there have been "things" that look like ships spotted around the sun...some think it's some kind of an interstellar gateway.

The Outer Zones

This is a song about a soul that is in transition between here and the other side, in this case a tragic end to her life leads to her being captive for a time...but eventually she can move on.

Lady By The Sea- Copyright Tim Smith 2014

She stands gazing wispy islands far, she's lost her amusement on shame..a wandering thought moving on as a soul..and she sees in the night with no eyes.


While darkness is rampant afar, she seeks for a place she can rest,her calls no one hears, as dawn slowly nears. She sees spirits who live behind walls.


She's the lady who lives by the sea, sorrows friend crying endlessly..ran away from destiny and it pierced her with arrows of sorrow.

She's been dead nearly 200 years, but that really means nothing here, she's caught in between a place like a dream
and the spirits know that it's real.

Oh where will she go when it's time...the voices that speak they do lie, the choice will be hers and the lessons are learned...as she leaves in the dark, to go home.

She's the lady who stands by the sea sorrows friend crying endlessly...ran away from a destiny and it pierced her with arrows of sorrow.
Note- I will be improving this mix in the next several weeks.




Lady By The Sea

It Really Doesn't Matter

The word charity has come to be known as benevolence. In the older root word caritas it means love and in the context of this song this is the intended meaning. I have personified charity/love by giving her a name and describing someone who follows the ways of love...so I don't know anyone named Charity but I thought it was a good way to personify and describe it in poetry. Based  on words in 1 cor13:4

When Charity Smiles           

When Charity smiles, rain and wind all go away, when Charity smiles it's gonna be a brand new day.
When Charity smiles she drives the shadows all away,when Charity smiles, I know we'll make it all the way.
She lets her light shine, she lets her light shine,

She does not envy, does not boast,seeks the good in me the most,
Keeps no journal of wrongs I've done, seeks the good for everyone
Charity smile, Charity smile

Charity smiles,Charity smiles,Charity smiles,Charity smiles,Charity smiles,Charity smiles it makes everything alright- Charity smiles

When Charity smiles I feel her kindness all around,when Charity smiles, it touches all who look her way,
She lets her light shine, she lets her light shine,she lets her light shine in- repeat

Who's Laughing Now?

One day you'll wonder
what went wrong
everyone sees all along

Who's laughing now? Can't you see?
Who's laughing now? It ain't me.

Sitting smug there
in that chair, you think you have it figured out
Answers are guesses and guesses are lies
conratulations a useless prize

One day you'll wonder what went wrong
everyone's seen it all along
Answers are guesses and guesses are lies
congratulations, a useless prize

Who's laughing now? Can't you see?
Who's laughing now, it aint me.

One day you'll wonder what went wrong
everyone's seen it all along

Who's laughing now? Can't you see?
Who's laughing now? It ain't me

Who's Laughing Now ?



Wise Man Of Wongo       c2014 Tim Smith

There lives a man in Wongo, who studies all the credos
He sits atop a mountain, some say he's a hero

In Wongo
In Wongo

Way up in Wongo
Way up in Wongo

I climbed the mountain where he sat in a robe of white

 He said he'd been expecting me,said there was a fight

Over mind and matter here to take away my life-
Our win has been secured over future hurt and strife

In Wongo
My eyes were opened
In Wongo

Wise Man Of Wongo

A Little Bit Of Fun And A Whole Lot Of Pain
 Words and music by Tim Smith subject to copyright- 2023

Life is full of choices we all must make
Some lead to regrets, and others lead to joy
When I know that I shouldn't, did it any way,
It was a little bit of fun and a whole lot of pain.

I've seen the fork in the road, don't know where to go, feelings are liars
and directions are few, my destination is sure as the morning dew
was a little bit of fun and a whole lot of pain.

Chorus
Looking back makes a terrible teacher
when I knew better anyway
Learning late doesn't feel better than never
All for a little bit of fun and a whole lot of pain

Pain is always better than a little fun
when the pain is even greater at the end of the run
the people we hurt as we went for our love
will never be paid at the end of our ruin

Chorus
Looking back makes a terrible teacher, when I knew better any way
Learning late doesn't feel better than never
All for a little bit of fun and a whole lot of pain.

A Little Bit Of Fun And A Whole Lot Of Pain

Lyrics and music by Tim Smith. Played with my real instruments, bouzouki, guitars, harmonica.

Cast Your Burdens Down

Lights Gonna Shine On Me

One Last From Your Love

Don't Worry No More

Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht

A song about a mysterious mountain. I added elements of pop and progressive rock,,,threw in a little 80s synth flavor. I aimed for a bold, mysterious  track with low vocal harmony. Lots of parts went together to make this :)

 This is a collaboration between Jeff Evans and myself. All rights reserved.
Jeff added so much to this mix both musically and technically. He replaced the drums with real drums. Tightened up the synths and much much more! Thanks Jeff!
