Lyrics

Lessons learned in borrowed time
Sudden change with a blink of an eye
Where did it go? 
Swallowed by fortitude?
Where has it gone as the day breaks?
Mostly lost in a foreign land
Surrounded by the pull of sinking sand
Dreaming of life
Grieving in solitude
When will it end as the ground shakes?
Why does the ground shake?
Why?
Sailing on the sea of regret
Playing with the hand that you're dealt
Not giving up is a human art
Fighting on when you feel you can't
Don't say you can't when you know you can
Believe you can
Don't stick around in the cold despair
Don't make it up you can make it there
Don't say you can't when you know you can
Believe you can
Another set of winding stairs
That lead you to a truth that you cannot bear
Looking down from the precipice 
Embroiled by the thoughts of nothingness
Silent screams from a whisky jar
That hit you with the force of a speeding car
A flicker of light, a drizzle of rain
Impaled by the force of all life's pain
Why is there so much pain?
Why?
Sailing on the river of guilt
Playing with the hand that you're dealt
Not giving up is a human art
Fighting on when you feel you can't
Don't say you can't when you know you can
Believe you can
Don't stick around in the cold despair
Don't make it up when you make it there
Don't say you can't when you know you can
Believe you can

Believe You Can

This song began one morning while I was "noodling" on the guitar, key of G, 5th fret capo using D shapes, (for the guitarists out there:), and thought it the beginning of a promising recipe for a song; but it sounded a little thin.  It needed some extra seasoning and a little protein, so I sent it to Debra Buesking for her culinary expertise and she supplied all the lovely touches it needed.  It's now ready to serve, our version of "Noodle Soup". Enjoy:)

Welcome to part 2 of the "Water Planet Project". In this part we see glimpses of the paradise our planet was, on its journey up to the present.  As mankind begins to urbanize and industrialize, the pristine pictures of one of our most important natural resources begin to crack.      
For the best experience, see the visualization of our story which you can find here: www.youtube.com/user/wcifarout.  If time only permits listening to the soundtrack, you will still be able to hear the beauty in Peter's thoughtful words and singing, Ed's lovely electrics, Dan-DT's gorgeous synth arrangements, and my acoustic contribution to Seagull's beautiful song "Milk and Honey Time" that Peter wrote the lyrics for.  
Words are insufficient to express my gratitude to Seagull for his far-ranging vision that brought us all together, and his extraordinary expertise in production that made his vision a reality. 

First song - The Realm Of The Water Fairy by Dan-DT
Second song - Milk & Honey Time by Seagull, David, Ed & Peter
Third song - Whole by Dan-DT & Ed

All narrations, lyrics & vocals by Peter
Contributing vocalist. Clara Sorace

Here you will find the fantastic musicians I share this adventure with:
From Sweden- Seagull: @farout-music-studio
From England - Peter: soundcloud.com/user-264930040/tracks
From France - Dan-DT: @dan-t-3
From Canada - Ed Cunningham: @westtracksmusic

As Soundcloud for some reason does not allow more than 4000 characters, you will find the lyrics to the songs on Seagull's YouTube channel.
We wish you a pleasant musical and visual journey.

The Water Planet Project--Part 2

Written and performed by Bluebird
Produced by Richard Brown

Two million kisses are going your way 
and when you wake up
You'll remember my name

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Three million wishes and just one remains
A light in the dark guiding the way

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Searching for light with you by my side
Holding me tight
All through this life searching for light
with you by my side
Holding me tight

A new day, new hope!

There's some serious World Blues going on around here.  Two wonderful musicians join me here on our blues original Blues For Peace - Joe Bongiovanni takes the opening soulful electric guitar solo and Al follows with such fine jazz playing.  These guys both have deep roots in Ohio, and their love of the blues sure shows.  Here's to Peace -
Joe / Al / Jamie

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares

Zeitgeist - Spirit of the times. [lyrics at the bottom]
When I was very young I wrote rock and pop songs. Finally after many years of instrumental music I returned to composing a song with the help of @Xian3 who wrote beautiful lyrics and provided a great vocal interpretation and whom I thank for his willingness and enthusiasm.
It's apparently a love song but it also speaks of existential restlessness, of fear in its double value of paralyzing or strengthening the life force.
The collaboration had only one difficult moment when, due to a linguistic misunderstanding, I misunderstood a joke and thought Xian was a Lazio team fan (I swear it's all true)... We came close to an international crisis!!! :)))
As you can listen, to make the collaboration more "thrilling" he decided to write the first part in German, which I don't speak. He assured me that the meaning is more or less similar to the second part in English... But who knows... Let's hope so! :))
[If anyone who speaks German reads anything suspicious against Roma team, please let me know, thanks.] :))))

Zeitgeist

Im toten Winkel, da haust
Ein Schatten, der mich immer wieder verfolgt
Jedes mal, wenn ich arbeiten will
Ein Seufzer des Zweifels
Fällt in mein Ohr
Das ist nicht immer unbedingt schlecht,
Doch es macht nervös,
Sieh,

Kann nicht ohne dich sein
Kann nicht ohne dich leben,
Du tiefste Angst
Kann nicht ohne dich gehen,
Du tiefste Angst

Behind the blind spot there lurks
A shadow that is always following me
Everytime i want do my work
A sweet sigh of doubt
Just drops in my ear
This is not necessarily bad,
But It bothers me,
See

I can’t live without you
I can’t live without you , now
My deepest fear
I can’t leave without you, now
My deepest fear

How i wish, you were not here
I would not shed a single tear
I would
I would

Can’t you leave without me ?
Can’t you just let me sleep in ?
My deepest fear
Would you live without me, now
My deepest fear
Would you ?
Wouldn’t you ?
Would you, please ?
Would you, please ?

Lyrics: @Xian3
