On My Way Home is a dreamy country song for those long drives after a hard day, when traffic feels endless but love is waiting at the other end. Every second on the road stretches longer, yet the thought of home and the one you love keeps you moving. With warm melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and a soulful country vibe, this track captures that universal feeling of longing for the place where you truly belong.

On My Way Home

A whisper of wind, a breath of the plains,
Soft as the rhythm of falling rains.
A lone bird circles, the horizon wide,
A canvas of clouds, where secrets hide.
I walked this road when the earth was bare,
Through seasons of hope, through the weight of despair.
The fields remember, the dust won’t lie,
Every step I’ve taken beneath this unbroken sky.
The fences lean where the wild grass grows,
The scars of the land, the life it shows.
Oh, unbroken sky, you’ve seen it all,
The rise of the mountains, the rivers’ call.
Through fire and storm, through love and goodbye,
You’ve held me steady, unbroken sky.
Unbroken sky, unbroken sky.
The willow bends but it doesn’t break,
It whispers of strength in the paths we take.
The amber fields and the distant hills,
Carry the echoes of dreams fulfilled.
I’ve knelt in sorrow, I’ve stood in pride,
With you as my witness, unbroken sky.
You stretch so wide, so endless, free,
A silent watcher of eternity.
Oh, unbroken sky, you’ve seen it all,
The rise of the mountains, the rivers’ call.
Through fire and storm, through love and goodbye,
You’ve held me steady, unbroken sky.
Unbroken sky, unbroken sky.

Unbroken Sky by 🌹Tina Talone🌹

Played my songs in smoky bars 

Chased the rhythm chased the stars 

Made a living off a worn-out tune 

And danced beneath a harvest moon 

loved too hard I lost too fast 

But every heartbreak came to pass 

I held some hands I let some go 

But I always sang what I could show 

My friends were fire wild & true 

We burned through nights we never knew 

Laughed in kitchens cried in cars 

Told the truth in faded scars 

We built a life on borrowed time 

But every chord still feels like mine 

They’re older now or gone ahead 

But I still hear the things they said 

And if this is my dying wish 

Let it be a song,not a list 

Let it be a porch light glow 

A melody the children know 

Let it be a love that stays 

In quiet hearts and louder days 

If this is all then let it be 

A life that sang back honestly 

My family held me through the storm 

Kept me fed and kept me warm 

wasn’t perfect Lord knows that 

But I showed upn and I tipped my hat 

watched my babies learn to dream 

& prayed they’d find what love can mean 

I gave them music gave them grace 

& tried to leave a kinder place 

I don’t need gold I don’t need fame 

Just someone whispering my name 

When the last note fades away 

Let them know I tried to stay 

& if this is my dying wish 

Let it be a song, not a list 

Let it be a porch light glow 

A melody the children know 

Let it be a love that stays 

In quiet hearts & louder days 

If this is all, then let it be 

A life that sang back honestly 

A life that sang back honestly

Dying Wish  by Songwriter Edwin H. Balder

(Oh, oh, oh)
Morning light across the field
(La, la, la)
What did all that hard work yield?
He knew the season by the sky
By the way the wind would sigh
By the feel of dirt between his hands 
Like it whispered old commands 
He didn't speak of pain or fear
Just said, "The beans go in this year" (in this year)
And with a quiet, steady grace
He gave the field one last embrace
Can you see what we've become?
From the seeds of what you'd done
Fed the world, fed the soul
Left the rows in perfect roll
They're growing well, Dad, can you see?
The love you planted lives in me
(Oh, they're growing well)
He taught me how to read the land
Not with books, but with his hand 
How to listen when the earth is dry (earth is dry)
And how to trust the morning sky
He didn't chase a fortune's flame
Just cared for roots and gave them name 
And every meal that passed our plate
Was proof of work and quiet faith
Can you see what we've become?
From the seeds of what you'd done
Fed the world, fed the soul
Left the rows in perfect roll
They're growing well, Dad, can you see?
The love you planted lives in me
(Oh, they're growing well)
(La, la, la, la)
I walk these rows at break of day
(Oh, oh, oh)
Feel his footsteps fade away
(La, la, la)
Now my boy runs through these fields
Learning what the harvest yields 
Small hands dirty, eyes so wide 
Standing proud right by my side
I teach him how to plant and tend
How this work will never end (never end)
The same gentle, patient way
Dad showed me every single day
Three generations in this dirt, three generations giving worth
To every acre, every row, watching how the good seeds grow
From his father's father's hand, passed down through this sacred land
Not about the money made, it's about the promise stayed
When the world gets loud and fast, these roots are built to last
Teaching patience, teaching pride, with the earth as our guide
Every season brings its test, but we give our very best
'Cause the land remembers all, every rise and every fall
Can you see what we've become?
From the seeds of what you'd done
Fed the world, fed the soul
Left the rows in perfect roll
They're growing well, Dad, can you see?
The love you planted lives in me
(They're growing well, they're growing strong)
The love you planted carries on
(Oh, oh, oh)
Morning light across the field
(La, la, la)
This is what your life revealed
(Growing well, growing well)
The love you planted lives in me
(It lives in me)
For all the world to see

Growing Well by Songwriter Edwin H. Balder

Star maker behind the lens
Seeing where the music bends
How to make it be seen...
How to make it mean
Each song, a new story to tell
But how to tell it so damn well
To catch the eye the band desires
To earn the nod the world admires
He sketches light, he frames the soul
He makes the broken pieces whole
No red carpet, no applause
Just quiet genius in the cause
Music video, lights and grace
He builds the magic, sets the pace
From storyboard to final cut
He gives the dream its deepest gut
Music video, frame by frame
He never asked for fortune, fame
But every star that ever soared
Was lit by him behind the board
Got it ready, on the set
This take’s the best one yet
Everybody’s locked in sync
He takes a breath, begins to think
Are the lights just right
Are the cables out of sight
Then he says the words that start the flame
The ones that always made his name
He saw the soul behind the song
Knew where the shadows should belong
He gave the stars their perfect frame
But never once chased his own name
He built the stage, he shaped the scene
He made the music truly seen
And though the credits roll too fast
His work, his heart, they always last
Music video, lights and grace
He builds the magic, sets the pace
From storyboard to final cut
He gives the dream its deepest gut
Music video, frame by frame
He never asked for fortune, fame
But every star that ever soared
Was lit by him behind the board

Music Video [For Jeff]

We parked the truck by the old boat ramp
She kicked her shoes off in the sand
Six years old, chasing seagulls wild
Still thinks the world is kind and mild
I held her hand, she held my trust
The sky was burning gold and rust
She said, “Daddy, why you look so sad?”
I said, “Let’s walk, I’ll tell ya, sweetheart”
There’s something I gotta tell ya
It’s gonna change the way things are
But it don’t mean we love you less
It don’t mean we’ve gone too far
Mom and me, we tried our best
But some things break, no matter how you bless
There’s something I gotta tell ya
And I’m telling you with all my heart
She stopped and stared at the setting sun
Said, “Will you still tuck me in when the day is done?”
I said, “Always, baby, just not every night
But I’ll be there when the stars feel right”
She asked, “Did I do something wrong?”
I said, “No, honey, you’ve been strong
Sometimes grown-ups lose their way
But love like yours will always stay”
There’s something I gotta tell ya
It’s gonna change the way things are
But it don’t mean we love you less
It don’t mean we’ve gone too far
Mom and me, we tried our best
But some things break, no matter how you bless
There’s something I gotta tell ya
And I’m telling you with all my heart
She leaned her head against my side
Said, “I’ll still draw pictures of us inside”
I said, “That’s good, baby, keep that light
It’ll help us both sleep better at night”
We watched the sun dip down below
The water caught its final glow
She whispered, “Daddy, I still love you so”
And I said, “Me too, more than you’ll ever know”

Something I Gotta Tell Ya

I’m the spark in the dark that you can’t unsee
A flame in the corner burnin’ just for me
The cards are on the table
No tricks to play
You’re dealin’ with the real
Babe
No runaway
Real deal
Can’t fake this thrill
Long low nights
Time stands still
Real deal
Just take the wheel
I’m the dream you chase
The void you fill
Whiskey whispers in a glass half full
Echoes linger
Your heartbeat pulls
Every step closer
The shadows sway
You’re caught in my orbit
No escape today
Eyes like magnets
Drawin’ you in
A slow burn game
But I play to win
Real deal
Can’t fake this thrill
Long low nights
Time stands still
Real deal
Just take the wheel
I’m the dream you chase
The void you fill
I walk the line but it bends and sways
Every step a dance in a smoky haze
You look at me
Your eyes a dare
A velvet trap
I’m caught
I swear
You’re the real deal
The fire I feel
Slow burn
No rush
Let’s seal the deal
You’re the real deal
I’m losing control
Take me under
Heart and soul

Real Deal By Songwriter Edwin H. Balder

“We Can Do It Let’s Restart” tells the story of a man who knows he messed up but refuses to give up on love, a Bro Country anthem of second chances and redemption. The lyrics hit hard with honesty, admitting past mistakes but holding tight to the promise that change is possible. Every line blends raw regret with stubborn determination, turning heartbreak into a vow to fight for what matters most. Guitars ring with southern grit while the vocals carry a mix of tenderness and grit, balancing vulnerability with strength. The chorus echoes like a rally cry, “We can do it let’s restart,” pushing through the pain with the hope of starting fresh. This song lives in the dust of back roads and the fire of neon lights, grounded in everyday struggles but lifted by the belief that love is worth saving. It’s a track made for open highways, long nights, and anyone who has ever asked for one more chance. Packed with country spirit, heartfelt conviction, and a spark of renewal, this song reminds us that true love doesn’t quit, it restarts.

Lyrics
We Can Do It let's Restart

Everytime your around I lose control
The mere presence of you takes its toll
Having you near makes it so hard
To forget what we had

I know I had my ways
But I know I can change
There is always a way
I just have to make the change

Your Love for me is all I want
I would give anything you want
You will always be in my heart
We can do it let's restart

I can see your not yourself
I know your feeling it too
Why would you want to be by yourself
Lets make our dream come true

Your Love for me is all I want
I would give anything you want
You will always be in my heart
We can do it let's restart

Life has it's ups and downs
We can find our way around
This is not a sentence
We can get things back in the present

You will always be in my heart
We can do it let's restart
Why would you want to be by yourself
Lets make our dream come true

My love for you is real
I love you and always will
Let's Restart  woooooh woooooh
Let's Restart

We Can Do It let's Restart

We Can Do It Let’s Restart – Second Chance Love

I wear your heart on my sleeve
You wear my ring like a vow
We’re not just falling again
We’re flying now
I used to think love meant roses
And waiting by the phone
I used to chase the perfect moment
Just to feel a little known
I’ve danced in borrowed feelings
I’ve cried in someone’s name
But none of that was this
None of that was flame
This isn’t butterflies or guessing
This isn’t games or doubt
This is waking up with wonder
And never wanting out
I wear your heart on my sleeve
You wear my ring like a vow
We’re not just falling again
We’re flying now
I hold the wonder of each moment
Like it’s stitched into my skin
This isn’t love like before
This is love that begins
We’ve all been fooled by fire
We’ve all been burned by light
We’ve all believed in someone
Who couldn’t hold us right
But then you showed me silence
Could be louder than a scream
And love could feel like dancing
In the middle of a dream
This isn’t waiting for approval
This isn’t hoping they’ll stay
This is knowing you are chosen
Every single day
I wear your heart on my sleeve
You wear my ring like a vow
We’re not just falling again
We’re flying now
I hold the wonder of each moment
Like it’s stitched into my skin
This isn’t love like before
This is love that begins
Tomorrow’s not a question
It’s a canvas we can paint
With every laugh and whisper
With every scar and saint
We’re not afraid of endings
We’re not afraid to try
We’re just two souls in motion
Writing love across the sky
So here’s to all the mornings
That feel like brand-new songs
To every step beside you
Where I know I belong
I don’t need a perfect story
I don’t need a flawless past
I just need this moment
And I need it to last
I wear your heart on my sleeve
You wear my ring like a vow
We’re not just falling again
We’re flying now
I hold the wonder of each moment
Like it’s stitched into my skin
This isn’t love like before
This is love that begins
I wear your heart…
You wear my ring…
We’re not just falling…
We’re everything

I Wear Your Heart by ♨️ 🍪

While you wait for Mr. Right, can we walk a while?
Down that old trail where we both always smile
I know we’ve always been just friends
No need to circle back again
But while you wait for something better on your plate
I hope I can share a little friendly  ...not a date......
While you wait for Mr. Right, can I make you laugh?
Tell you stories from the crooked path
I’ve seen love fall and rise like dust
But you’re the one I always trust
So if he’s late, or lost in pride
I’ll be the maybe that stays by your side
While you wait for Mr. Right, I won’t pretend
But I’d be lying if I said I don’t depend
On the way you light up quiet rooms
On the way you sing old forgotten tunes
So if you’re just passing time tonight
Let me be your soft, quite- not Mr. right
While you wait for Mr. Right
I’ll be here, holding on tight
Not to steal, not to sway
Just to walk you through the day
While you wait for love to land
I’ll be your maybe, not your man
But maybe’s got a little fight
While you wait for Mr. Right
He’s got the looks, the car, the charm
But does he know your favorite song?
Does he ask how your mama’s been?
Or just talk about his wins?
I’m not perfect, I’m not bold
But I’d never leave your heart cold
While you wait for Mr. Right
I’ll be here, holding on tight
Not to steal, not to sway
Just to walk you through the day
While you wait for love to land
I’ll be your maybe, not your man
But maybe’s got a little fight
While you wait for Mr. Right
So if someday you look my way
And see more than a friend who stayed
I’ll be ready, boots and heart
To play the part I couldn’t start
While you waited for Mr. Right
I learned how to love you right
love you...(love you)....love you...(love you)...right

In the shadows of Apache Junction, at the foot of the majestic Superstition Mountains, sits a weathered hacienda. This desert oasis is home to an enigmatic figure, a songwriter whose journey reads like a long, dusty road of honky-tonk bars and college cafeterias. He wasn't chasing fame or glitter; instead, he chose the soul-crushing beauty of music for music's sake.

Years spent hunched over sticky barroom tables and scribbling lyrics on napkins earned him a reputation—not in the spotlight but in the back rooms where deals are made. He wrote melodies that found their way into the hearts of stars who had lost their own muse. He sold his creations for cash, with no recognition, but the whisper of his songs carried the weight of his soul.

Finally, he bought this piece of desert paradise—a stable income from his timeless songs allowed him to live comfortably, if anonymously. Here in this hacienda, with his family beside him and the mountains as his backdrop, he found the peace to write hits under his own name. He chuckled at the irony that now, without chasing fame, he could create music that brought him joy.

In the end, it was never about the spotlight. It was about the journey, the stories, and the songs that wrote themselves through his life. As the sun set behind the Superstitions, casting long shadows over the hacienda, he strummed his guitar and sang—content, unknown, and unburdened by the world's gaze.

I may be dead when fame comes but my real glory was always JULIE & The Kids. Thank you for such love

Welcome to Sharmila Journeys, 
Music & Stories, the creative space of a songwriter, storyteller, and digital artist.
For many years I wrote poems quietly in my diary. They were words waiting in silence, shaped by the people I met, the places I travelled, and the emotions I carried. In 2025 those poems began to find music. They became songs across many genres,   pop, jazz, rock, folk, country, EDM, and metal. Each one carries its own atmosphere, its own story, its own landscape of feeling.
As a psychologist, yoga therapist, and Ayurvedic counsellor, I have spent my life listening closely to emotions. This deep listening does not end with healing work; it flows naturally into my songwriting. My music is not taken from private client stories. It rises from my own sensitivity, from human experience, from travel across cultures, from the whispers of nature, and even from the quiet presence of stones, rivers, and trees.
Every song I create is accompanied by original digital artwork, designed to capture the mood and spirit of the story. Together, words, music, and art become a journey.
In just the first weeks of sharing my music on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and SoundCloud, my songs have already begun to reach listeners organically around the world. This has encouraged me to step forward more openly as a songwriter, offering my catalog not only to listeners but also to filmmakers, music supervisors, and creative collaborators.
