I wrote this song while watching a beautiful snowfall a couple of winters ago - right after the 2016 election. I was feeling a lot of emotions at the time, and writing this one helped out.

Well it's been awhile for me. Busy summer and a bit of creative block all around. I'm happy to share a song I wrote this weekend to reflect on how tough change can be when you're in the midst of it. So many in my life are in the midst of personal…

"It’s hard to see the difference
Between the twilight and the dawn."
What a perfect picture!
...and the person I wrote COLORS for has never heard the song. Do you think I should tell her about it?

Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Boy I really like these lyrics. Makes me wonder who was in your mind's eye as you wrote this. Sausage customer, or music producer, or maybe someone else entirely. I am always so amazed at your songs! Love this!
A BIG, BIG thank you to Wildgeas who took my simple acoustic guitar song and turned it into a beautiful work of art. Arrangements and Production done magnificently by Paul Lennon (Wildgeas). Also, special thank you to Bethan who put her sweet…
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…
Wow! This is just awesome....
"Silver swan don’t let up if it takes too long".... I love this line
What a great story to go along with another amazing track! Thanks for sharing this one
Two hours before morning light
Highway signs go by all night
Open window to catch the breeze
Helps me clear my cluttered mind
Road noise rumbling through the floor
Been on this road once or twice before
My mind is racing up ahead
Leaving…
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
I'm almost done with this last CD by Wildgeas Music.
I'm retiring to new stuff and new gear :)

I wish to give many, many thanks to Bethan, Trevor, Michael, and Chris
for helping me create this collection…
I can't stop her now she's written another.....
Supermummy
poor mummy
poor poor mummy

she has to sleep with trumping trevor
trumping trevor

i can’t believe it’s poor poor mummy

About COLORS: With all this talk of harassment I'm reluctant.
"It’s hard to see the difference Between the twilight and the dawn." What a perfect picture! ...and the person I wrote COLORS for has never heard the song. Do you think I should tell her about it?
beautiful & coming from someone who works the graveyard shift ...I relate to the contrast of the difference
Thanks. This is beautiful, welcome back. I've been thinking about that difference a lot lately.
Yeah that's you doing good. Everyone likes that minor chord on the lyric Dawn, I do too its so memorable
A nice melody and good lyrics. Your style and voice remind me of Judy Collins!
Beautiful! love the chorus
This is just lovely
nice
It seems like it's been forever. I'm being redundant, but I really love the simplicity of these compositions. Unadulterated music.
Oh yeah! Nice chord change on "dawn". Perfect lilting song. Sounds great up here on the North Shore.
The Euk is like Ear candy. Great vox/lyrics too Colleen
