Music and vox by Gordon, lyrics by me:
That remind-me song was playing
On the juke box in the bar
And on my way to work today
On the radio in the car
Reminds me how you wounded me
And it sure brings back the pain
But I can’t seem…
Music and performance by David G Harrington
Lyrics: Me
In The Afterglow of Dreams
Subtle shades of dark dissolve
Into half-remembered scenes
Sighs and slow awakening
In the afterglow of dreams
Vague thoughts and recollections
Are…
I’m so happy you like it, John. Merry Christmas!
~ Elisabeth

Sometimes writing a song is the very best and only thing you can do....
Cold Winter Moon
Oh cold winter moon
And the wind that blows
Bring me a change
For my weary soul
Take away this longing
That fills my heart
Something is over…
For some reason this one demanded to be written...
So here's to all of us that have been in this situation a time or two! Hugs and love to us all!!!
Feel Just Like A Loner
Verse 1
We sit across the table
We share the same old food…
Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off.
Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…

I wrote this one a couple of hours ago.
I set up for recording, and busted a string on the Martin... GAH!!!
I tried a big ole dreadnought thing…
A song I wrote over the last few days. Did a one-take-wonder on the recording, so it's pretty simple. Hope you like it!
Sometimes You Don't
Verse 1
Sometimes in the early morning hours
As the sun lights up the sky
I look back and think…
