5 Star Commended Entry in the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest.

Written after an early spring morning breakfast by the local river surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. I had plans to record more instruments but decided the simplicity of just the acoustic guitar & vocals sounded just right and suited the mood of the song.

Going to the riverside, in the early morning,
Find a place to sit down, stretch and do some yawning,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go by, life go by,

Birds are looking busy, gathering different grasses,
Busy building nests in amongst the hidden branches,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go by, life go by,

The peaceful waters flow, so slow, downstream,
Laying down I know, I can go into a daydream,

The ducks are tipping forwards, I guess they're going fishing,
I can't see what they're catching, that's something that I'm missing,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go on, life go on,

There's no one else here, to see the fish a-jumping,
Just the sounds of nature and gentle waters rumbling,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go on, life go on,

The peaceful waters flow, so slow, downstream,
Laying down I know, I can go into a daydream,

Going to the riverside, in the early morning,
Find a place to sit down, stretch and do some yawning,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go by, life go by,
Sitting by the riverside, watching life go by, life go by,

The Riverside Song

Christmas: A birthday celebration where we tend to forget whose birthday it is.

Não há lugar, não há qualquer estalagem.
Já não há espaço no coração.
Não há milhões que prestem homenagem.
Não há louvores da multidão.
Dá-me tua luz, oh vem guiar os passos meus.
Dá-me tua luz, filho de Deus.
Como os pastores que os anjos convidaram
Deus dá convites a todos nós.
Abençoados os que não esperaram
e atenderam à Sua voz.
Dá-me tua luz, oh vem guiar os passos meus.
Dá-me tua luz, filho de Deus.

It’s not played perfectly, recorded perfectly, mixed perfectly or mastered perfectly, but perfection is not what I’m after.  If I’m happy with it I’ll post it.  If I’m bored of it I’ll post it.
