Slippin' Through My Hands  - The Souls

Mountain -The Souls

I Write My Best Song & I Get "Braces" 

My Orhodontist' Had A Humorus Name 
For A Doctor In Oral Care - Dr. Fingeroth
Braces Were Not Something I Wanted
But I Got Them & Then Went Back Home
To Comfort Myself With My New Song... 
"Someday Soon"  
Which After Braces Became 
"Thumbday Thoon"
Beatles "I'll Be Back" Opening  
Verse Of "Ferry Cross The Mersey"
"Ticket To Ride" Feel & Structure
At That Age My Guitar Playing Was Better 
Than My "Thinging" 
50 Years Later - I Recorded This With My Son

SOMEDAY SOON

I’m Trying Hard To Get Away
Breaking My Back All Night & Day
But Someday Soon I’ll Break These Chains
That Bonded Me From All My Aims
Someday Soon
Someday Soon
Someday Soon I’ll Be With You

I Don’t Know How To Say We’re Through
It’s Gonna Be So Hard To Do
I Wonder If I Will Regret It
I Look At You & I Forget It
Someday Soon
Someday Soon
Someday Soon I’ll Be With You

So Baby Wait Tll I’m Set Free
We’ll Be Together Endlessly
These Chains Together We Can Bend
And Be Forever In The End
Someday Soon
Someday Soon
Someday Soon I’ll Be With You

Richard Goldman's Album

SOMEDAY SOON

Inspired by thoughts as I walked the Portuguese Coastal Camino

Walk Along

Blue skies

nothing feels to real to me 
i'll play the fool you curse again
our line are always flat 
but we're both perfectly cast

to be here forever 
drowning in security 
to be here forever 
drowning in security

deer skull on private property 
our god will he let you talk to me
i am your hollowed ecstasy
and i know that you don't want 

to be here forever 
drowning in security 
to be here forever 
drowning in security

To Be Here Forever

Do It Again (Demo)

Damnation Station (demo)

I Started This On A Casio 8-Note Keyboard, In 1978
And Finished It On Guitar In 2022 
This Play-Through Felt Kinda Magical
 


GOOD OLD DAVE 

Good Old Dave
My Friend Dave 
We Used To Do An Awful Lot Of Things Together
Good Old Dave
We Used To Think We Would Be Friends Forever
Good Old Dave
My Friend Dave
I Wonder What He’s Doing Now
I Wonder What He’s Done
I Wonder Where He Goes 
When He Goes Out To Have Some Fun
Good Old Dave 
My Friend Dave
People Always Wondered If We Were Brothers   
Good Old Dave
A Few Of Them Always Thought We Were Lovers
Good Old Dave
My Friend Dave
Did I Lose Touch With Davey Or
Did He Lose Touch With Me?
Maybe We Just Need Eachother,
Momentarily?

A 2016 Cover Of Donovan's 'Catch The Wind'
It's Always Been Hard For Me To Sing This 
Without His Scottish Accent
----
This Is For RoseMary - Happy Birthday! 8/10/25
 In-Law & Donovan Fan

Donovan Anecdote: 
In The 80s - I Played In A Weekend Pick-Up Softball Game 
At Fairfax High In Hollywood
With Donovan's Son... Dono  
And Yes, It Was Weird Playing Ball 
With The Son Of A Hero
But Dude Was 8 Years Younger Than I 
And Had A Quick Bat
I Pitched A Lot - I Didn't Like Guys With Adjustable Swings
You Could Fool Them & They Could Still Recover
Dono Could Hit My Pitching 
----
Below Are The Proper Words...
-----

CATCH THE WIND

In The Chilly Hours & Minutes
Of Uncertainty, I Want To Be
In The Warm Hold Of Your Loving Mind
To Feel You All Around Me
And To Take Your Hand, 
Along The Sand
Ah, But I May As Well Try & Catch The Wind

When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while, behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
That would make me sing
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standin' in your heart
Is where I want to be, and I long to be
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind

Donovan Leitch

CATCH THE WIND

A Wedding Song Outtake 
Prolly Cause It Was Too Intimate & Chatty

This Was Lost & Forgotten For Over 20 Years
So, For Me, Each Listening Is Still A Gift


NOW IT CAN BE TOLD

She’s Drawn To The Guy 
Like A Moth To A Harris Tweed
She Looks So Happy 
it’s Almost Embarrassing
Now It Can Be Told!

He Touches Something That’s 
Buried Down Deep In Her
(If) The Judge Prattles On 
The Groom Might Fall Asleep On Her
Now It Can Be Told!  

Just On The Face Of It 
I’d Have To Say 
That Their Chances Are Good 
Cause They’re Really In Love
It Goes Far Beyond 
Just A Mere Base Attraction
It’s Almost A Match 
Made In Heaven Above
The Chances Are Good 
Cause They’re Really In Love

He’s Drawn To The Girl 
Like A Squirrel To An Oldsmobile
He Fell In Love 
And So He Had To Close The Deal
Now It Can Be Told!

They Decided To Marry 
For Poor Or For Rich
Just As Long As It’s East 
Of The Washington Bridge
Now It Can Be Told!

Just On The Face Of It 
I’d Have To Say 
That Their Chances Are Good 
Cause They’re Really In Love
It Goes Far Beyond 
Just A Mere Base Attraction
It’s Almost A Match 
Made In Heaven Above
The Chances Are Good 
Cause They’re Really In Love

First Time I Saw Them 
I Said To Myself I Said
"These Two Are Suitably 
Bound To Be Wed" & So
Now It Can Be Told

The Perfect Relation 
Of Music To Word
This One’s A Song 
That Deserves To Be Heard
Now It Can Be Told

Just On The Face Of It 
I’d Have To Say
It’s Almost A Match 
Made In Heaven Above 
It Goes Far Beyond 
Just A Mere Bass Attraction
The Chances Are Good 
Cause They’re Really In Love

NOW IT CAN BE TOLD

Written, Howled & Bashed In 2013
I'm Bashing At My Unplugged Epiphone Casino
For Most Songwriters 
A 12-Year Old Song 
Would Be An Oldie
But When The Writer's An 'Oldie'
I'm Currently 75 
So A Song Written At Age 63 
Is Kind Of A 'New Song'...
I Think I Had No Idea If It Was Any Good 
(It Sounded Like "Sunny Day D'Artagnan"
A Song Of Mine - From 1968)
But I 
So I Just Sang & Played It  "Live" To My 
20-Year Old "Photo Booth" App On My Computer

LIVING ON THE MOON

Every Time You Look At Me
Every Time You Smile
Makes Me Want To Laugh & Stay Awhile
Some Day’s Are Crazy
Monday’s Coming Soon
Think I Want To Go Live On The Moon

But In The Ways That Matter
Do I Even Care
Do I Even Breathe The Same Air
Can You Ever Forgive Me
Can You Do It Soon 
Can We Both Go Live Up On The Moon

Thanks For Listening
I've Been Writing & Recording Songs 
Since 1964 - When I Was 14  
I Couldn't Read Or Write Music
So In Order To Remember It 
I Had To Record It 
By The Late '70s, I Realized 
I Had To Be My Own Favorite Artist  
And Keep Track Of The Songs I'd Written 
To Keep Me Company In My Old Age
So - I Did & This SoundCloud Collection 
Is A 'Musical Diary' Of My Life 
For The Last 60 Years
By Clicking "Playlists" 
You Can Follow My 'Progressions'
