You are my ocean

Waiting for the moment
That’s sometimes hard to find
moving in slow motion
weighing heavy on my mind

I am out of practice
I’m even out of time
I  feel like a prisoner
doing time

you and I went swimming
in the deep blue sea at night
The nights’ stars lit the ocean
They know who we are

I am like a runner
running out of time
I am like a sculptor
running out of lime

Let’s start at the beginning
let’s not contemplate the end
And forget what was in the meantime
maybe we  can still be friends

Looking at the moment
What would we sacrifice
You are my ocean
you’re my star filled sky

I waited at the station
to find you were somebody new  
that time and space had changed us
you weren’t how I remembered you

and I must let you wander
this earth on your own
that friends don’t stay forever
sometimes they're just gone

You Are My Ocean

This is a song I wrote in 2016, about overcoming negative self doubts when I was starting to write songs again after a break of about 20 years.  It’s a song of positivity and self encouragement to get on and do the things you want to before it’s too late, regardless of what stage of life you’re at.  Recording, percussion and additional fabulous chucka chucka guitars by Carl Hetherington of Van der Neer.

Doing time

My recording class final project, i don't know why i posted this. it's mostly detuned ukulele and toy piano, but i added midi chimes and a pad sparingly.

A reimagined cover of Starman by David Bowie. This is one of my favorite Bowie songs so I had to put my spin on it.

A song I posted a three weeks ago …that Johnny AKA ~  ( No Killie Fish) ~ https://soundcloud.com/johnnymc2 took me up on my request...

Johnny took my raw acoustic song  and put a some wonderful instrumentation down for me to put a another vocal take on it, then he mixed it and mastered it … Was really very happy with the results. ( Thank you Johnny)

This was a first effort of a long ago song ... (originated from a little poem I wrote well over 40 years ago)"
"Dockman's got a cold hand,...first ship off at dawn,
Liberty Sails ..to the horizon ...now she's gone"

Quiet little café...Near the edge of town
Late at night …when lonely comes around
Eyes danced …we make love…till the morning light
Anchors raised …one long kiss goodnight

Still see her blue eyes…staring’ through my soul
As this ocean rolls… me… miles and miles from shore
Still feel her loving hands…here on my face
Feel them slip away…again I start to cry…cause I’m
Miles… from shore…and but I never… never sailed goodbye

I’ve only been there once…just a little port in Maine
A sleepy little harbor town…that I’d love to see again
Dockman’s got a cold hand…first ship off at dawn
Liberty sails…to the horizon…now she’s gone

Still see her blue eyes…staring’ through my soul
As this ocean rolls… me… miles and miles from shore
Still feel her loving hands…here on my face
Feel them slip away…again I start to cry…cause I’m
Miles… from shore…and but I never… never sailed goodbye

Quiet little café...Near the edge of town
Late at night …when lonely comes around
Eyes danced …we make love…till the morning light
Anchors raised …one long kiss goodbye
I’m miles from shore, but I never, never sailed goodbye
I’m miles from shore, but I never …sailed goodbye

NEVER SAILED GOODBYE - (MUSIC & MASTERED NO KILLIE FISH)_

https://soundcloud.com/chips-in-nose-and-ears had a beat, and I had a chord set…we shared them and started following different inspiration lines to get this eclectic but coherent suite:

CINAE-R SUITE (1) Rapped Andalucia (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/cinae-r-suite-1)

CINAE-R SUITE (2) Tirolese Jam (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/esemanolain-ruizzo/cinae-r-suite-2)

CINAE-R SUITE (3) Rasta Pasta (with chips-in-nose-and-ears)
(https://soundcloud.com/chips-in-nose-and-ears/cinae-r-suite-3-rastapasta)

This 2nd movement got a funk rock vibe, by hand-playing bass instead of my usual programming. Descriptive guitars and much more complete this number's story teling.
