HINDSIGHT - (JunkHeap (c) Refixed Apr 2023 / (c) Aug 02, 2003)

Things could have been so different, 
if they could have been done again. 
Countless times we see the chance, 
and let them go, they wont come again 

He remembered the glory and strength of his youth, 
wasted his older years yearning for its return. 
Never realized that wisdom is more than a fair trade; 
Beauty in ones' own introspection.

Things could have been so different, 
if they could have been done again. 
Countless times we see the chance, 
and let them go, they wont come again 

They never will...

Genuineness Makes a Difference

Little Love Ways

First off i have to say a big Big thank you to my Son Rob for his great idea about the Pick up truck. Thanks Rob :-)  It really has added a new dimension to this little ole country tune . This is a real real " Pick me up Song " :-) The song is a  follow on song to "The Road" & " Ordinary guy. A song of Hope & friendship with a little sprinkling of Spirituality thrown in.  We all need someone to help us when we are down or Lost and in this song the " Pick up truck " symbolizes a friend or a spiritual belief. Something that we can relay on to help us through  the bad times. Just like an old pick up trunk sturdy & Reliable & Always goes the distance. 

 Hope you like it. 

Written, performed & Produced by: Johnny Mc Farlane
Thanks to my Friend Finn Eces for helping me arrange this one.

Country Pick Up Truck

1996

The Path was written by my good friend Stephen who lost his wife and best friend Máire 4 years ago.
It is a beautiful and very personal song that portrays the path that Stephen takes every week as he
makes his journey to visit Máire.
I am truly honoured that Stephen asked me to help him record and produce this beautiful song in
Máire’s memory.
Stephen can be found at https://on.soundcloud.com/HWahF
I would like to ask you to drop over to Stephen’s page and comment on his song, as he has only just
started on SoundCloud. He goes under the name of “Mouse”.

The Path

On Sundays, I'm used to play my acoustic guitar by the windowsill. I don't even know which chords I play, I just got the blues and jammed along. Michael found the perfect words for that little song. Pensive, calm and yet beautiful like a rainy sunday afternoon.

This song is part of the album "Quarterlife Blues" that can be downloaded on Bandcamp.

==== LYRICS ====

Relaxing on a Sunday afternoon
In a porch swing
Sitting upon a cushion
Eyes closed
I can tell it's raining
Pink Lilies reaching up
With long blooms

Regal moths await the evening moon
Dark clouds release the nourishing drops
In the distance
Comes reply
Of forest murmurs
And then the sound of drops
Upon the leaves

Sad feelings melting into a puddle
This day brings
A new page of lessons
Rising I stare into the window
People walking
Carrying 'round all their worries

Thoughts surround
Clouds pushing down upon me
Outside a stream flowing
Into the meadow
And a leaf canoe
Bidding goodbye
On it's way as it sways
Into the ocean

Relaxing washing my cares away
Relaxing on a Sunday afternoon in the rain

As the song implies, "what more could a guy ask for?" A scene from a beautiful Sunday east Texas front porch sunrise, shared with a loved one.
