What do you do when you're up late, and you like Waltz time, Elliott Smith, synthesizers, and The Blues? You write something like this, that's what you do ;)

*The demo was posted 9 years ago, but this is the remixed/final track.

If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it is yours forever. If not? It was never meant to be.....Richard Bach

To win this girl I needed time and patience. It truly took 1 year to get her permanently in my life. Nothing along the way was guaranteed. But really, I was prepared to give it all.

The Greatest Thing

That day I met you
I had fallen instantly.
But I knew you were moving
cautiously towards me.

So I just cherished
every moment gratefully.
I took the time that you
would need to come to me.

We spent those first days sharing.
All our secrets we were baring.
I found a heart so caring.
You just blew me away.

How can a girl I just met,
sweep me up so fast? I don't get.
I knew years from now
I'd surely mark this day.

The greatest thing that ever happened to me
was finding my one true love, Shirley!

That girl had such a spirit,
confident and sure.
Within that heart there lived
a brilliant light so pure.

But there was still that unknown.
You could not yet see.
And came that fateful day
you broke it off with me.

-and so-

The hardest thing I've ever done
was walk away from only one.
The one who changed it all
in just a few short days.

But that's exactly what I did.
Became the man and shed the kid.
We said goodbye. I smiled
and drove away.

For months I waited for you faithfully.
Praying every day that somehow you would see.
 
Are you out there? Do you think of me?
Why can't you see that I'm your destiny?

I've blown my life up just to be with you.
And now I'm here alone, but baby where are you?

I kept the faith. I waited patiently.
I trusted God would grant my wish and let it be.

That day that you came back to me,
it still remains a mystery.
What happened deep within my heart,
I still can't say.

I truly felt you saved my life.
Still can't believe that you're my wife.
All started from a perfect summer day.

Sing!

The greatest thing that ever happened to me
was finding my one true love, Shirley.

My one true love, Shirley!

True Love is Joy! This is the fastest song I have ever written. It just poured out of me

I Sing All My
Love Songs For You


I sing all my love songs for you.
A thank you for all that you do.
A love that has carried me right on through.

Girl, without you what would I be?
No future that I want to see.
No joy would've happened at all for me.

Yes it's true.
You swept through my heart like a storm.
I never felt cold only warm.
You gave my life purpose and gave it form.

Even now
Each day is the best that I've had.
Tomorrow more blessings we'll add.
You make my heart truly feel glad.

Only you!

I sing all my love songs for you!

Baby please
Open your eyes to what's true.
A family that started with you!
The beautiful portrait we drew.


It is true

Where we go,
only the heavens can know
But this started so long ago
and still in this river we'll flow
till it ends.

I love you so.
The rest of my life I will show.
These feelings in me only grow.
As you and I always did know
real love.

Real love!
The kind that can never be tamed.
Emotions impossibly named.
As decades have surely proclaimed
to this day.

I sing all my love songs for you.

I thank you for all that you do.

Your love that will carry me right on through.

I sing all my love songs for you!

Tian Maier - Feel Me

I wrote this when I lived in NYC. Sometimes, I found myself walking around  "experienced". For medicinal purposes only, of course. We're not a 2-piece drug band. Look at my face: You can trust me ;) 

Ef me...  I got home somehow, wrote the song, worked up the tracks, emailed them to Mitch and he did a great little psychedelic Indian bit for me in the solo. Thanks, Mitch! Best listened to at a high volume through headphones. We thank you for listening and sincerely hope you enjoy turning on with us.
