Some day

I rerecorded the vocals, and remixed and mastered the track..

A change in the weather might bring me around again
You know I never liked the cold
A chance to turn this back around my friend
A chance to save my immortal soul
  
Nothing else that came so easy ever felt the same
But nothing hard to hold will ever stay
I watch the clouds form through the window pane
It fills the empty hours of the day

So I know one thing for sure…
It’s gonna rain today

The stars fall from the sky and wash up on the shore
Glowing softly blue before they fade
It’s every star i’ve ever wished upon
Now lying silent in their grave

No one that came before you made me feel that way
But I know what’s hard to hold will never stay
I watched the  stars fall from my window pane
And now I'm pleading for the light. of. day.

I know one thing for sure…
It’s gonna rain today
Somebody help me,
It’s going to rain today

Sometimes it seems this flood will never end
Sometimes it seems that all there is is drought
Sometimes the stars are shining in my hands
But they’re mostly full of doubt..

one thing’s for certain I can say…
It’s going to rain today
Somebody help me,
It’s going to rain today
Oh, won’t you save me,
Before the stars all fade away

It's Going To Rain Today

If Today Was My Last

There's a fantastic 70s leaning pop-rock album  Ticket to Shangri-La  released in 2023 (Young Gun Silver Fox) with a song called Starting Wars. I miss heard and mis-read the title as Starling Wars which seemed a great metaphor for something. It could have applied to a relationship - but the 2 wars going on became the theme

Starling Wars

You fly in to foul my nest 
Seeing red I puff out my chest
Aiming at your catacombs
Dropping all my guano bombs
Flit across and I peck at you
Cause my beliefs are the only truth
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

I ruffle your feathers
You think that you’re better
Ethnically superior
The plumage of an emperor
Gonna peck my eye’s right out
Squawk about it loud and proud
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

Em7 Dma7 Ami7 G Bb/C F F#m7 B

Underneath there’s the dove of peace
Peeking out at the busy streets
I Wrap your eggs neath protective wings
Drop a flower confess my sins
Fleeting thought it just flies away
Revenge is sweet gonna make you pay
Starling wars it’s about pecking order 
Starling wars gonna bomb your son and daughter

Sing Your Song

There are eight-foot seas off Majorca
My hotel room is stocked with wine
On the phone with a rueful New Yorker
It's a Hell of a Valentine
I'm inclined towards absence without leave
If she weren't so disinclined
& the mind is a tungsten foundry
Forging unrealisable designs

There are runes in the clouds & the whitecaps
What they portend, who can say?
I'm just another miserable mariner
Body here, heart far away
Like the heart of the barmaid at Patxi
Only longs to return to Marseille
& the night is filled with bad dreams
& the sky is cold & grey

There's a face in the mountains of Majorca
Gazing skyward since who can tell?
You can only see it from orbit
& it's probably just as well
I saw something off the fo'c's'le
That I'm keeping to myself
& the night is lonely as Hell.

Majorca

The Christmas Lights in Idaho is one of the most meaningful songs on my debut Christmas album, Starlight and Silent Nights. For me, Christmas in Idaho has always been about more than the snow and lights. It’s the warmth of gathering with loved ones, the way the quiet of winter evenings feels peaceful rather than lonely, and how every glowing window seems to hold its own story.

This song reflects the magic I’ve experienced growing up here. The twinkle of holiday lights against the snowy landscape, the sense of community that fills every small town, and the way even the coldest nights feel alive with hope and love. Writing this song was like taking a walk through my favorite holiday memories, and it’s a chance to share that piece of my heart with you.

Creating Starlight and Silent Nights has been a dream come true, and I’m so grateful to bring you into the world I love so much. I hope this song reminds you of the magic of the season and the special moments that make it unforgettable.

Christmas Lights in Idaho

Close your eyes and imagine this: lanterns lining the snowy streets, the sound of carolers echoing through the town square, and neighbors coming together to celebrate under a sky full of stars. That’s the heart of "A Country Christmas Eve"—a festive country tune that captures the magic and warmth of a small-town holiday.

This song is all about the joy of simple traditions: skating on a frozen creek, the smell of fresh-baked pies, and the kind of laughter that only comes from being surrounded by loved ones. With bright acoustic guitar, lively fiddle melodies, and a sprinkle of sleigh bells, it brings to life the scenes that make Christmas unforgettable.

Perfect for your holiday playlist, "A Country Christmas Eve" is an invitation to gather ‘round, share stories, and soak in the beauty of the season.

🎧 Press play and let the magic of this song transport you to a Christmas Eve you’ll never forget. 🌟
