We sit across the table
We share the same old food…

Am walk down...
When I was a child we'd drive 200 miles
to Grandma's in the Spring
I'd hop out of the car, run to the back yard.
Grandma had a swing
But the times have changed...
When I became a dad I took all the rope I had…

This is the title song from my first LP.
FEATHERS IN THE WIND by SNOWGEESE.
Snowgeese was my first wife, BarbaraAnne and me. Michael was a new friend we met when we moved to Texas that liked my songs enough to produce and arrange and record…

JMT...Also wanna say that I love the sound produced on those 1/4" - 4 track machines. I listened to half the tunes on "Feathers in the Wind" & really enjoyed them. I'll tell you again that I'm a big fan of your writing and your voice. Truly great stuff, my friend.
its been a while.....Thanks for listening
I want to be free
Some people want to laugh
While others just want to cry
Some people want to live it large
while others just want to hide
This world is some kind of a crazy place
Where love…

Such a lovely and sad tune. Well done
Is really chill, but with such a happy energy too. I love it!
“Get out of bed…. I need the sheets for the table”…. Classic lyrics. Oh my…. Poor Simone
Wonderful song and painfully true of many relationships. The relationship ship cannot be sailed alone!
Thanks, Colleen! And love it North of Superior!
Kat Angel Nice imagery. You paint pictures with your songs
Poignant lyrics wrapped in a perfect presentation. You caught me with this one. Absolutely Beautiful and thought provoking.
Reminds me of Bernie Sanders.
