A New World Dawns

In streets once familiar, now strange and new
Ancient rhythms fade, replaced by a bolder hue
The land I knew, with traditions deep and strong
Slowly dissolves into a discordant song
Faces once mirrored mine, shared stories now untold
Amidst this sea of strangers, and cultures manifold

Our customs and values, once firmly in place
Blur and shift, leaving barely a trace
Languages mingle, accents collide
The essence of home seems to subside
In this tidal wave of change and flux
I search for anchors, familiar crux, familiar crux

A new world dawns, equally bright
A new world dawns, equally bright

Yet in this loss, a bittersweet truth emerges
As cultures blend and humanity surges
Though the country I once knew may fade from sight
Perhaps a new world dawns, equally bright
Maybe equally bright
Still, I mourn for what once was mine
A shared identity, now hard to define

In this global village, ever-growing
I'm left adrift, nostalgia flowing
Though the country I knew may fade from sight
Perhaps a new world dawns
Perhaps a new world dawns
A new world dawns, equally bright
A new world dawns, equally bright

A New World Dawns

original... black magic

This is a live recording done at Sipos studios. We put down quite a few tracks in one day as we were well rehearsed leading up to steady gigging ( we had hoped ).   This is the blues version of of an originally folkish song written by me. Lyrics:  
I thought In had the answer I guess I didn't know
Thought I had the answer, guess I didn't know
Thought I had it figured out, I guess it goes to show
Well I lost myself in pages turned and now im looking back at bridges burned.

Well I thought I didn't need you, I guess I couldn't see
Well In thought I didn't need you, I guess I couldn't see
Wanted to be left alone, now whats become of me
Well I spent all of my chances earned and now im past the point of no return
Chorus
As I wait in darkness.. your footsteps softly fall
That Im might be hearing them, makes no sense at all
Then I feel you next to me, the tears begin to fall
As In try to speak you hush me with your eyes
And suddenly I'm standing in the loving light of lessons learned

Now I begin to know you, a little more each day
As I begin to know you , a little more each day
All illusions that I had, they seem to wash away
And it seems that Ive become a guide for all the lonely souls who could be turned

WHY- Ft Paul Paploviante & ZDCOM

This song was written & recorded on the day that John Prine passed away in April 2020...

Make the snow go
Make the wind blow
Let the spring come
Let the sun show

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine

Make the outlaw
Make the front door
Let the lock set
Let the hurt roar

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine

Run the border
Run the water
Let the fever break
Let it for her

Give the new sky
Some new sunshine
Give this old world
Some more John Prine
