HELLO

Giant

Summer daisies springing
In my mind I see them swaying to my feelings
So one with my tune
A beat here, a heed there
Just for you
 
The rainbow pales
Against your magic spell
Everything fades
When you come calling to my dream space
 
‘Çause I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams
 
 
Winter comes but I feel warm
Funny how a day’s memory
Can feel so strong
 
A gust of wind
Can’t shake me from within
Nothing else matters
As long as I know that my dream’s still living
 
‘Çause I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams
 
Life was so unkind
Once upon a time
Then something changed
Oh I may never see that day again
But I’ll thank you
For making me bloom
 
And I can’t forget
That one day we met
May never see you again
Till this light of mine shines
But you showed me places
That these eyes had stopped seeing
Ooh yeah..
(Yeah, it was you)
So darling, no matter, there’s only one place for you to be mine
In my dreams
Yes, in my dreams

PROGRAM NOTE
As a follow-up to our song cycle for soprano and chamber ensemble (or piano), Robert and I  agreed the concept of five characters looking for love online should have a male counterpart. Written for baritone and chamber ensemble, In Real Life II looks at five contemporary men clicking their way to second chances and romance. In “No Frog” we meet a prototypical player, a guy who fluffs his profile, but the truth keeps slipping out. The tone shifts with “Sola Fide,” in which a U.S. veteran of the war in Afghanistan explains the tattoo on his chest and the wounds inside. An older gentleman envisions one last fling in the irreverent “Die with Me.” In “Still Vamping,” a gay man muses on his start-and-stop romantic history. Finally, in “Nice-Plus,” an everyday guy reveals a hidden passion. In Real Life II was commissioned by American Modern Ensemble with funding from the Doctorow Family Foundation.

A short folky tune about a bumbling beekeeper

Honey Bee

Song about having a partner who is a bit cuckoo with the jealousy. As they will be.

LYRICS

I can see you in the mirror and your face is looking back strange.
And your hand on the pillow makes me shudder as its sliding past my face. 

I've tried to provide a distraction.
You're in need of constant action.
I've tried to tell you there's no-thing.
Quickly becoming a no-win. 

I know all your little accusations, 
you dont even have to say.
That voice in your head, he did this, is never gonna go away. 

Oh, the things I haven't done are repeating.
The sound your making is just bleating.
I can't get me any satisfaction.
You're out there looking for action. 

The jealousy festers and takes over your brain.
But all your friends are out there, acting just the same. 

Not a single one of them happy.
Not anyone of them laughing.
Your half assed plan of distraction.
Was voided by my inaction. 

I can see you in the mirror and your face is looking back strange.
And your hand on the pillow makes me shudder as its sliding past my face. 

I've tried to provide a distraction.
You're in need of constant action.
I've tried to tell you there's no thing.
Quickly becoming a no-win.

Information Retrieval [with The Fall of Saigon]

We might have answered the world’s greatest problems.
We might have won the war.
We might have sung every song that’s been written.
And maybe a couple more.

We might have dreamed up the greatest plot ever.
We might have  keyed the lock.
We might have solved every riddle presented,
If not for that stupid clock.

Why is it all of the greatest times ever come to an end way too soon?
Time spent with friends should never be ended, time for another tune.
“I’ve gotta work in the morning,” won’t cut it. Why does it have to stop?
Time spent with friends is the greatest gift ever. Let’s just ignore the clock.

No one will	ever accuse us of wisdom.
We’ve no agenda here.
All we require is a song for the singing, 
And maybe another beer.

Why is it all of the greatest times ever come to an end way too soon?
Time spent with friends should never be ended, time for another tune.
“I’ve gotta work in the morning,” won’t cut it. Why does it have to stop?
Time spent with friends is the greatest gift ever. Let’s just ignore the clock.

We might have found Jimmy Hoffa, the Loch Ness 
Monster, the matching sock.
So many things we that we might have accomplished
If not for that stupid clock.

If Not For That Stupid Clock
