You’re feeling that you’re broken And your door’s no longer open Don’t you ever, ever give up For all the words unspoken And the thoughts that were provoking Don’t you ever, ever give up But tonight, you have it right So, get out there…

They do it all the time Prey upon your fears Hang around them long enough They’ll Play you like their fool Play you like the lottery Time and time again You see things never change You’re nothing but their fool Do it once or do it…

Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D 13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele. We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

John wrote this somewhere around 1972 or 1973. This is pretty much a song about the conflict of self vs. what you think is expected of you and the casualties that are impacted along the way. There was probably a lot of James Taylor influence…

This is a song about someone John met when he moved to Arizona in 1975. A brief encounter that left inspiration for a song.
