While she lays sleeping, I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes all the night can be so long
And it's good when I finally make it home, all alone
While she lays dreaming, I try to get undressed without the light
And quietly she says how was your night?
And I come to her and say, it was all right, and I hold her tight

And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl, I could change the world
With my little songs, I was wrong
But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night, if my song is right
I will find a way, find a way...

While she lays waiting, I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
Then I see my old guitar in the night
Just waiting for me like a secret friend, and there's no end
While she lays crying, I fumble with a melody or two
And I'm torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through, 
God her love is true...

And she believes in me, I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl, I could change the world
With my little songs, I was wrong
But she has faith in me, and so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night, if my song is right
I will find a way, while she waits... while she waits for me!

Sometimes When We Touch

Demis Roussos (Aphrodite's Child)   Rain And Tears 1987 Audio Sound HQ

What A Wonderful World - Rod Stewart

Album Title: Barefoot Socrates
Genre: Smoky Jazz-Blues / Bohemian Noir / Retro Soul
Vibe: Sultry, Intimate, Late-Night, Cinematic
Description:
Barefoot Socrates strips away the marble and robes of antiquity to reveal the original bohemian wanderer in a dimly lit, smoky atmosphere. This album is a masterclass in mood, transforming the probing questions of the Agora into a sultry, late-night confession.
The soundscape is steeped in nostalgia and noir textures. Anchored by the warm, walking rhythm of an upright bass and the organic pulse of congas and bongos, the groove swings with a subtle gypsy-jazz influence that feels both timeless and raw. Over this rhythmic foundation, smooth retro guitar lines weave intricate melodies, echoing the Socratic method of endless questioning.
The defining element is the vocal delivery—deep, husky, and female. She delivers ancient wisdom not as lectures, but as soulful, emotional revelations. Tracks like "The Dreamless Sleep" and "The Gadfly" are reimagined as torch songs, where the search for truth burns with a slow, cinematic intensity.
Barefoot Socrates is a record for the midnight hour, capturing the essence of a man who owned nothing but possessed the ultimate wealth of the mind. It is philosophy felt in the gut, delivered with the heart of the blues.

Woman In Love

Jesus - here's one I've just found in the vaults. My cover of Air Supply's "All Out Of Love". I think I just wanted to see if I could pull it off. As always it's audio art so draw your own conclusions.... and yes, I did play and program all the instruments.
