I Can’t Seem To Find My Way Home

Featuring Norm on Percussion Track: “Pilón For A New Son”
http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/piln-for-a-new-son

Lyrics:

Searching for something
I wonder and roam
Hoping the truth
Soon will be shown

I’ve been out there looking
Far too long
Now I can’t seem to find
My way home

Every morning I greet
Thinking that I
Can find my direction
In this clear morning sky

Sweet smell of dew
I’m thinking of you
How your smile could
Calm me through

I wake up new, the sky filled with blue
I realize I am alone
A moment or two my thoughts turn to you
I can’t seem to find my way home

Clouds start to form
I think there’s a storm
Coming in from the
West of me

The rain starts to fall
I don’t care at all
Spend my time underneath
This old tree

I started out this morning thinking about Norm’s fantastic percussion and came across this song. Norm let me use one of his percussion tracks to fill out the song. He has an album of 94 collaborations on his Alonetone Page.

I have a song in the movie THE VANISHING. That movie starred Jeff Bridges and Keefer Southerland. I did all the music in a movie called RED DESERT PENITENTIARY. A film maker in Austin is finishing a short movie with about nine of my songs in it. Another Dallas film makes used me as an actor in a film recently and used a piece of mine as the theme song for that actor. It all adds up...to....something. Except for the Vanishing and Dark Blood there is no money.

Oh, that! I was nominated for Best Texas Music when my music isn't about Texas at all. It's all silly. It's all about the young musicians in town. They have a big blow out at the awards shin dig and everybody has fun but nobody takes it seriously about who is really the best in town. That movie is called DARK BLOOD, finally to be finished by the director, George Sluizer. The movie was started in 1993 and production ceased when River Phoenix died of an overdose. Now it is being finished with narration filling in the unshot scenes. I suspect it will get a lot of attention because if it being River's last film and the circumstances.

Greg, I don't know about that contest. I DID get a song in an upcoming movie recently so that is a lot like winning a contest.
