Cool how the melody goes to your highest note when you sing about "some go so low."

You know I need the rain today
Gonna cleanse my blues away
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

I can't watch the news today
Gonna turn it off turn it away
Give it light under the sun
Hey now girl
Am I the one

We don't hold more than today
Gonna push our cares away
Give them chase and make them run
Hey now girl
Am I the one

You know I need the rain today
Gonna cleanse my blues away
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one
Give it slow and get it done
Hey now girl
Am I the one

Hey Now Girl

The wind in the willows is speaking to me
It's telling me things it knows I want to believe
That I should be happy though I'm feeling blue
That you'd never leave when I've already lost you

When I look into your eyes
I see what you can't deny

You've seen the world, but you can't see me
When you're around you're always leaving
You have learned to hide your feelings oh so well
You've got a dream that you must follow
The fairytale promised tomorrow
You hope it will come true but only time will tell

The wind in the willows whispers to me
Are they words of wisdom or am I deceived
It's got me looking out a window into my past
Chasing distant shadows and things that won't last

As I try to keep your love
Oh, could I ever do enough

You've seen the world, but you can't see me
When you're around you're always leaving
You have learned to hide your feelings oh so well
You've got a dream that you must follow
The fairytale promised tomorrow
You hope it will come true but only time will tell

You've seen the world, but you can't see me
When you're around you're always leaving
You have learned to hide your feelings oh so well
You've got a dream that you must follow
The fairytale promised tomorrow
You hope it will come true but only time will tell
You know only time's gonna tell

Farther From The Tree

I am my father's son
That can be said of me
Yes, the apple doesn't fall 
Very far from the tree 
It's sad we never found 
Common ground for our beliefs 
It seems that we would always just 
Agree to disagree 
You were right, and yes, you were so wrong
Oh, and so was I now I must break this chain
That's bound me for so long 

Time marches on through fields of broken dreams 
I know you felt, I'm not the man that I should be 
Now, things that you would say and do 
I see them coming out of me
Sometimes, I wish this apple could have rolled 
A little farther from the tree 

Sons and the Fathers
Mothers and your daughters 
Has anyone but me ever felt this way
I know humility's the answer
Grudges are a cancer
That never let the dark clouds fade away

Time marches on past fields of broken dreams 
At times, I felt you weren't the man that I thought you should be 
Things that you would say and do 
I see them coming out of me
Sometimes, I wish this apple could have rolled 
A little farther from the tree 

Still, I have hope that some sunny day
That God will restore what we've thrown away
Until then, in my heart, I'll be
Believing somehow that you still love me

Time marches on through fields of broken dreams 
At times, we knew we weren't the men who we were meant to be 
The very things that you would say and do 
Now they're coming out of me
Sometimes, I wish this apple could have rolled 
A little farther from the tree

Farther From The Tree

This is the way to live!
Take in the small joys
Until the great happiness comes.
And if it does not come
then at least you had
had the "little joys".

- THEODOR FONTANE -

This Song was created against the background that very many people in this day and age have to lead a life that demands a lot from them but does not give much back.
The consequence is for these people a life without or only with little joy!
Especially at Christmas time we would like to give these people a little courage and hope, so that they also try to get a little piece of life.

Love's New Frontier
Words and music by 
Torrey Bliss

I'm leaving dark clouds far behind
I'll rise above them all this time

When some go low, we will go high
The road's not crowded there
To leave the darkness for the light
And find loves new frontier

Look for the best in those you know
Where they have failed just let it go

When some go low, I will go high
The road's not crowded there
To leave the darkness for the light
And find loves new frontier

Wanting to fight and criticize and magnify
Faults of others
You know that it's bringing you down
Start on the quest bring out the best
Lift the oppressed let hope manifest
Then you'll soaring up high

When some go low, we will go high
The road's not crowded there
To leave the darkness for the light
And find loves new frontier

When some go low, we will go high
The road's not crowded there
To leave the darkness for the light
And find loves new frontier

LOVE'S NEW FRONTIER

Cold Hard Rain

The candle light, it dims and fades
Outside, there is a cold, hard rain
It chilling me down to the bone
Since I found myself here alone
I hear Your voice in the wind
It's calling out to me again 
I can't find a way to get You out of my mind
When I'm reminded of You, time after time 

Outside, I know there's a cold, hard rain
Inside, my need for You remains 
As life goes on, how can I carry on
Without You, it just ain't the same

Only You can ease my pain
I know You still love me, though I've gone astray 
The rain comes down as I watch it pour
It's telling me to come home once more
Here in this world, I feel I don't belong 
Someday soon I'll  be moving on
And together again, in the light, we will be
But here in the now, the storm is all I can see 

Outside, I know there's a cold, hard rain
Inside, my need for you remains 
As life goes on, how can I carry on
Without you, it just ain't the same

Outside, I know there's a cold, hard rain
Inside, my need for you remains
I know You see, I'm not who I should be 
I'll never make it on my own 

Outside, I know there's a cold, hard rain
Inside, my need for you remains 
As life goes on, how can I carry on
Without you, it just ain't the same

Outside, I know there's a cold, hard rain
Inside, my need for you remains
I know You see, I'm not who I should be 
Oh, I want to come home

COLD HARD RAIN

Vocal and Lyric by Robert Cordrey

 3 6 9


he trembles with atomic laws
feels currents run through the earth
he`s a whirling field of force
the cosmic ray gave birth

in his voltage vision
he`s a science magician
on the third rock from the sun
forget about Edison

in your thought turbine
oh Nikola your mind
out of step electrons
all alone ideas born
Galileo knew
Pythagoras too
Einstein saw your ratio divine
3 6 9

poet of smashed atoms
dreams of space beam weapons
stunned by a ray from the sun
forget about Elon

in your thought turbine
oh Nikola your mind
out of step electrons
all alone ideas born
Galileo knew
Pythagoras too
Einstein saw your ratio divine
3 6 9
its kinetic invisible highly divisible
limitless energy sublime

Whatcha Gonna Do With Your Life
Words and Music by
Torrey Bliss ©2021

Sand falls through the hourglass
Time slips away and life goes on
Through a window you look in the past
Searching for just where you went wrong 
The silence screams so loud
Words lost and never found

Its sad how we justify 
Things we do in our life
A promise made fades away
When we trade tomorrow for today
Pride will lead the fool
The wise embrace the truth

Whatcha gonna do 
When the truth dawns on you
That you've missed the best days of your life
Chances you've been taking
Have long been in the making
You know your well is gonna run dry

Things in life that were given
You see them fading away
It's a hard truth now that you're living
You can't take what you have to the grave
That long and winding road
Will never lead you home

Whatcha gonna do
When the truth dawns on you
That you've missed the best days of your life
Chances you've been taking
Have long been in the making
You know your well is gonna run dry
Dreams that you've been chasin'
With unreal expectations
Has kept the veil over your eyes
If you will awaken
You'll see what you've forsaken
So whatcha gonna do with your life

Whatcha gonna do
When the truth dawns on you
That you've missed the best days of your life
Chances you've been taking
Have long been in the making
You know your well is gonna run dry
Dreams that you've been chasin
With unreal expectations
Has kept the veil over your eyes
If you will awaken
You'll see what you've forsaken
Oh whatcha gonna do with your life

Whatcha Gonna Do With Your Life

WHATCHA GONNA DO WITH YOUR LIFE

FIll Me Again

Words and music by
Torrey Bliss © 2023 

I don't want to go on this way
It's been so long since I walked with You
You know that I have nothing left inside
My soul cries out as I stand without excuse
Help me know You again

Fill me with love fill me with joy and
Fill me with peace again
To be patient and kind, show goodness and faithfulness
Be gentle with self-control
The things that I used to know
Lord fill me again

You'll teach me to walk as a wise man
And not as a fool
now I'll walk with You
Every day I'll rise and seek your face
To hunger for You and
Always do Your will
Lord help me start again
Fill me with love fill me with joy and
Fill me with peace again
To be patient and kind, show goodness and faithfulness
Be gentle with self-control
The things that I used to know
Lord fill me again

Fill me with love fill me with joy and
Fill me with peace again
To be patient and kind, show goodness and faithfulness
Be gentle with self-control
The things that I used to know
Lord fill me again

FILL ME AGAIN

EVERY ROAD
Words and music by

The sun lights up the morning
Takes away all the darkness of the night
And I know that You are still there with me
I sing Your praise way up to the sky
 
Sometimes I lose my way (While I'm singing my own song)
Then You speak to my heart ( then You speak to my heart)
And You show me where I've gone wrong

Every road I travel ( every road)
You've watched me on this journey(You came along)
You came along and turned my gray skies into blue

It's a long lonely highway (a lonely road)
When you're out there on your own
You know your headed the wrong direction
And on the wrong side of the road

You know I've lost my way (While I'm singing my own song)
Then You speak to my heart
And bring me back where I belong

Every road I travel ( every road)
You've watched me on this journey(You came along)
You came along and turned my gray skies into blue

Every road I travel ( every road)
You've watched me on this journey(You came along)
You came along and turned my gray skies into blue

Every road I travel ( every road)
You've watched me on this journey(You came along)
You came along and turned my gray skies into blue

Every Road

EVERY ROAD

Just a simple songwriter trying to make sense out of my musical ideas!
