Reflections of intuition IV

I Have A Woman
Music and Lyrics by Mike Krath

I have a woman who believes in today,
As long as it is tomorrow 
I have a woman who believes in yesterday 
As long as it’s not the one that gave her sorrow.

Don’t cry, woman, don’t cry,
Leave your tears for another day,
And make your face pretty
And come and show me your smile. 

I have a woman who never had children
As hard as she tried. 
I have a woman who wanted to raise them,
But life just seemed to pass us by.

I have a woman who tries not to cry,
But her tears won’t stay away.

I Have A Woman

I’LL BE BETTER OFF
AND A BETTER MAN
NEXT LIFE

MUCH LESS OF A FOOL
WAKING UP AT NOON 
NEXT LIFE

I’LL BELIEVE IN GOD
AND HE’LL BELIEVE IN ME
NEXT LIFE
NO MORE PLAYING TOUGH
WITH MY LITTLE WOMAN  NEXT LIFE
 
NO MORE MOCKERY
EASY JUDGERY
NEXT LIFE

NO FOOLING AROUND
I WON’T LET YOU DOWN
NEXT LIFE

A MERCEDES BENZ
AND TIME ON MY HANDS
NEXT LIFE

IN MY LIFE TO COME
I MIGHT EVEN BECOME
YOUR WIFE
BAKING COOKIES FOR YOU MY LOVE
 

LIKE A ROLLING STONE
I’LL BE GOING HOME
NEXT LIFE

MUCH LESS OF A GOON 
HOWLING AT THE MOON 
NEXT LIFE

AND I’LL BELIEVE IN YOU
AND YOU’LL BELIEVE IN ME
NEXT LIFE

BUT FOR NOW I WILL
DO MY BEST AND KILL
MY TIME

NEXT LIFE
NEXT LIFE
NEXT LIFE

Bye bye Dave, 
I'll be seeing you....

NEXT LIFE (Lyrics)

To quote Josh 😎
Ken (K2 and the Three and K2 and the Four). Ken added solid drums and sent it along to me. I added the bass, electric guitar, horns, electric piano, organ, and synth. I really like working on this kind of song, wherein it starts with a very strong element, like a riff or a melody, and I get some real, perfectly laid drums to go along with it. That's about as much fun as I can have, folks. Then, we sent it over to Tez (Llanpsych), who was able to make sense of my many layers, which never ceases to amaze me, and come up with an excellent mix. I really appreciate the very talented Sean Smith for sharing his music with us, my dear friend Ken for including me in the project, and my other partner Tez for manning the mix and production. We hope you enjoy the result.

the nice streetart photo by TuendeBede on pixabay kind of summarised some of the feelings I had with this work & and was inspiration for my title :-) composition, instruments, sax, it's all my original work. Enjoy the vibe - and listen a little louder :-)

Ain't easy to be funny

Ah, dear listener! I present myself here with my good buddy Gary, rather sheepish and shamefaced at being absent from this church of sonic jewels for the longest time.  I have been a bad listener, I'm afraid.  Bereft of mojo, time and without my little studio. Mea culpa. 

If you've read this far, you already have a whiff of the legendary about you.

So one day, quite recently,  the Phaigester messages me and opens his raincoat to reveal a select library of stellar little ear-nuggets he's been hiding away. What beauties, I tell thee! What beauties!
He lives here and you should visit if you haven't before

Three grabbed me instantly..deep, swirling soundstrata, complex and intriguing in equal measure. 

Perched on my bed, yodelling into the abyss, I attempt to add to his painting.  Teleported into that great,  inkyblack wonderland of transcendent joy again.

Hats off to Gar. Inventive, musical and patient. Thanks for your art and resuscitating me.

3 tracks..8mins plus..big ask. But hey, if you've read this far whilst listening you're halfway through 

Cheers me hearties, catch  you soon
Be good

Peripheral

I can’t see you, I can’t be with you
I can’t hold you or feel your welcome touch
As we slip into the water

I always sense you, I always feel you
Moving with me, our thoughts alike so much
As we slip into the water

When you slipped away on that awful day
You made me promise to live my life my own way
As I walk with you into the water

No more peripheral
It is logical
It is you and me

I feel
Like I want to ride across the desert
Baking sand, tears of sweat in my eyes
Then climb climb the black mountains
Oh-oh-over we go, sail into the grey blue skies
I feel cold, dark deepness,
Feel fearsome rain,
Then fall
Fall into your arms again

Strange Agent

Strange Agent
You're never gonna find the man
Strange Agent
He'll let you run while you can

Fool you summoned him from beyond
Fool you thought he'd give you what you want
But that ain't the deal
Spinning the wheel
He's found something to steal
There's a soul to pay

Strange Agent, running wild in your head
Strange Agent telling you to talk with the dead
He's taking you by the hand
