Honest Man
-
I went down to the riverside
Way on down where the water's deep and wide
I stripped right down to my naked skin
I jumped in the river and hoped I'd learn to swim
Cause I knew the river would take me
or I'd learn
And whether I live…

Toward You
-
With each new day I'll seek a way
To get as close as I may
Toward you
It's my destiny to set you free
Until then I can only see
Toward you
Throughout the night under the light
Of the moon I drive
Toward you
Through rain and snow…
Break my Stride
-
Break my stride break my stride
Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride
When I feel this way
There's only one thing to do
Nothin' gonna break my stride
Gonna walk down the road
til I get back to you
Nothin' gonna break my stride…

January Town

With the snow coming down
in this January town
how could I not think of you
Oh the words that you said
still echo in my head:
When one dies one is born anew
In the parking lot of the graveyard
a stranger walked up to me
he said…
Movin' On

Whatever thoughts we had
of any home we once had known
were cast off way back down the road
we're movin'on
I know we've gone too far
to ever see somethin' that's new
but that's a price I'll pay
to stay this close to you
There may…

this was a much needed and very enjoyable break from listening\mixing. you should be very proud of your effort. some of the best stuff i have heard so far.
Dream Song
-
Was I dreaming in my bed
Visions of the past
Rollin' through my head
Or was I driving in my car
Rain fallin' down
I couldn't see very far
Strange animals in shadows by the road
I knew a secret
But I forget everything I'm told…
Heaven Comes

Sometimes you have everything
Sometimes you have none
Sometimes you are separate
Sometimes you are one
In the midst of all your suffering
Sometimes Heaven Comes
Here's something for those bitter times
Here's something…
Matter of Time
-
Yeah we're up on our feet
People out in the street
And we're out to put heat on you
Your situation is dire
Your gonna burn in your fire
Til you find your empire's through
Ooh just a matter of time til you find
That…

Here comes my life again on the upswing
feels like I've been down
for so long
like a carnival ride
I'm not scared of the heights
as much as the ground below…
A song about the upcoming End of the World.
They tell me that the world is almost ended
the calender runs out and there's nothing more to say
The sun will flicker out and leave us all to die
So many things will be left undone
You and I will…
Hey Dave, I haven't seen (heard!) any new music from you in a while, but if you've heard anything awesome around here in the last year, please add it to the thread:

This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…

Ben jij echt?
De laatste uren van de ochtend, in de warmte van mijn bed
Kus jij me zachtjes wakker, je hebt al koffie gezet.
Waar de ene droom verdwijnt is waar de ander begint
Gekust door een droomvrouw, zo geliefd en bemind.
Ben jij…
Ik geniet echt van je muziek.
Het zou mooi zijn als je de woorden kon afdrukken zodat ik kan vertalen naar het Engels.

The guitar part and part of the words came first- the song was not easily written. I had to force it a little, and finished it today after having fragments kick around in my head for over a month. I hope the words and performance live up to the…

This is my complete entry for the 2013 NaSoAlMo. The album is called Radio and it's a suite of seven songs tied together with the sound of a radio being tuned. It's done.
You said, "I am a guitar player" to which I reply, Hell Yeah! But when you say "and a 3rd rate songwriter" I just gotta BS on that one buddy! I love that you called this record "Radio" because I could hear all these songs being played on an old school Album Rock station like the ZOO in Dallas used to be. You need to pat yourself on the back for me man, this kicks ass! Now go change your profile! :-D

Comments on Cave Street's stuff
great tune cave. clean EQ, tight mix. Keep thinking of a blues harp addition in there somewhere...
An excellent album and enjoyable listen ........
loving your vocal on this ......
I had to stop and start this one I thought the house alarm had gone off....
Top quality post. Ticks all the boxes for me and then some.
rockin tune had to play some piano with it
Great song...all the songs on the new album are wonderful!
...a time a place and a girl. Nice song. Cool imagery...."snow has hushed the sound..." And the graveyard reference.
The vibe this song creates is quite indescribable. Johnny Cash style vox with a spacey guitar and backbeat. I like it.
Big smiles here man :) This is greatness. I'm with Mars - Gospel harmony would be the addition to bring this to a new level.
Whoa! A bit different for Cave Street. I'm liking the lower register vox.
I have way to many Cave Street favorites. The list is long indeed. This one takes the cake bro. Honestly :) Play it loud....
There are no storytellers of your caliber left on this planet. IMHO :)
I love it!
Great lyrics, and nice song writing!
this was a much needed and very enjoyable break from listening\mixing. you should be very proud of your effort. some of the best stuff i have heard so far.
mantra baby.
dyno. great sonics. very easy on the ears.
dig it
cool. would love to hear some gospel harmony with you on this.

Love the spooky ambience here
Probably not the best track to listen to in the morning when I'm supposed to be getting up and getting ready for work! Well done!
Yeah, perhaps just a wee bit! Different is good!
Yeah, Peter, you did good. Very nice track!
I clapped at the end along with everyone else!
WOah! Double nasty guitar and vox.... ....had to wait for the smoke to clear to leave this comment!
Please post the words as well.
Great mood, Chris! Very well done.
This is twisted. A lot of your music reminds me of John Frusciante's stuff.
green poop is some funky shit!
Dig it!

This is kicking ass, man. Your guitar is rockin, killer riffs. Are these mixes different from the individual tracks you posted?
