This is a re-do of the piano groove track from July 8. I've added a breakdown and a B part and for the most part, I'm pleased.

They built a boat
Carried you down to the riverside
Set it alight
Talked of regret, children played nearby
They played nearby
The image of you I can’t shake
Hand raised, parting ways in the rearview
Smoke from the…

You Are Unchangeable
Verse 1:
While trapped in the dark,
I called on Your name;
You came and shone Your light.
The one who held me there
Fled and never turned—then I knew You’re the Light.
You paid the price for my pride,
And for the…

This full moon. Loving respect, kindness, and a great spiritual power came up in one of my readings this morning. I'm grateful for that being present.

The sound of the wheels

I am home for a while
Where I keep my things and desires

Tie the loose ends and leave it behind
You know me, I’m unwinding
Soaked in gin subatomic dividing…

I wrote and recorded this song a few months back (on Inauguration / MLK Day). A month or so ago, I re-recorded it to change the key but was not satisfied with the guitar sound, so I re-re-recorded the guitar today (still not satisfied...) and…

Draw me nearer, draw me, Lord,
Draw me nearer to Thee.
Tame my soul, oh tame me, Lord,
Draw me nearer to Thee.

Our Father who art in heaven,
The earth can't contain Your grace.
We have sinned and now…

I wrote this track pretty long time ago, but then redid parts of it for a live setting so I could play it on my digitakt. I haven't played out live in a bit so I tried practicing it today...

I've been chasing shadows in the light
Running through the echoes of the night
The road is winding but I just don’t care
I hear your voice it says take me there
Always and always

She's got a laugh like summer skies
Eyes that shine like fireflies
Her heart beats in a world of gold
She's the one I’ll never let go
Take care of my baby when I'm gone
Hold her close when the nights are long
Promise me you'll treat her…

I’m a shadow in the evening light
Fading slow into the night
Will my name echo through the breeze
Or vanish like whispers in the trees
Will you still remember me when I fade
When the colors of my face begin to shade
Am I a story that time…

On my way home
By that lonesome graveyard
A ghost jumps up and says
Come here won't you be my man
Wasn't a ghost at all
Someone asking for a ride
Wasn't a ghost at all
Someone asking for a home
Said boy come here
And take me to your…

I saw jack-in-the-pulpit and I knew I belonged
And I felt every sermon and I held every song
O The trees creaked and shifted as they turned and dropped their leaves
And I pulled an empty bottle and I held it to the breeze.
Oh this one life…

This is yesterday's track, back to the original melody with cross-picked guitar added (oy! that was tough). I see the template for a proper song now, and over the coming days I'll add to this and I hope to end up with something...

I'm grateful for balance. Yarrow showed up today in a field and I was reminded of the balance I have to continue to strive for.

Worries Never Win
Verse 1:
Worries have never solved
The things that ache my heart.
Pacing the midnight floors,
Only pulled me apart.
Tried to fix it all alone—
But I was sinking fast.
Then I heard a still, small voice:

Last of the five-day experiment in intervals. Again, my friend Ebow was acting persnickety, as is its wont (I'm sure I have nothing to do with it), and the result includes some abrasive string rattling. I like the melody of the original recording…

V1:
Oh, how did we get here
Seems familiar but it’s unclear
Did no one take the reigns before we lost control

Wouldn’t you think twice if it saves your soul
