you are like the rain that falls with the snow
or is it the other way around
i dont know
all i know is i love you
and cant get above you
it is driving with no place to go
the muscle and the bone i find
that keeps my heart in line
just…

you tell me what you want
you tell what you need
i cant give you nothing honey
but this pretty little seed
where has the sun gone
and is it gone forever
will it come back someday
should we just give it some time
i ask you what…
i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…

start here at the airport
feels like im going blind
middle of the day in a dark bar
1000 miles away from peace of mind
im tring to remember
when i was a kid
did the sun set in my back yard
i think it did
what comes before and goes on…

Man this is incredible. The off kilter feeling of the music belies the deeply personal lyrics. Like being in a funhouse with a slanted floor, but someone is crying in the distance.

three striped gum
falls out of an old dresser drawer
fills my head with memories from before
causes me to close the door
i feel rotten to the core
three striped gum
falls out of my pocket in the rain
what would have happened if i played…

i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
Nice album Tim,hey where do I get one of those rockers with the roll down windows?Some interesting percussion sounds in this one.One of my favorites of the bunch.

thanks
it is always unexpected when a tune gains popularity. that song came together so quickly.it was truly inspired. that was a one take vocal. quit often i will harmonize with the main voice. but i knew soon after i recorded the first that that was enough
i really appreciate your input and support

amused, desire to feel inside and will i mean it
confused, and scared of what I'll find, and will I believe it
it's just a scratch but infection has already set it
we go on like the world will never end
no fear of tomorrow, no fear of today…
shame I make the same mistakes each time
adding up, piling on this list of my crimes
the biggest to the smallest weigh the same to me
buried beneath of mountain with no hope of getting free
holding on to my broken dreams
shame I have no…

i remember seeing that crazy picture you use of yourself when i first started the rpm thing and wondering what the hell you were up to. a poloroid gone bad. sure glad i continued to be curious
sorry to hear you have been sick but it sounds as if it was productive. now that i am listening i think i may have alreadt commented on this. i am not sure how to take you r songs. they are so honest yet i cant tell if you are making up the feelings as if you are a blues singer or if you truely are telling your story. what ever you have something very relivant.
This was written for RPM 2009, mostly in January and was inspired by from a mix of current events and personal journey.
Lyrics:
The Queen of Pearls is wearing diamonds
up and down her fingers
She holds the door to the castle
where memories…
some good story telling.

Comments on tim mcfate's stuff
smudged it with my foot, covered it up with leaves but came back to see what I believed. Love this line.
Great song Tim- I'm liking your stuff!!
great feel and love the vocal
You didn't hear back? Wow, sorry. That doesn't sound like me. :-( Loving your laid back style. Very cool music, Tim.
Cool song. Your tunes really remind me of the Stones.
Nice, very nice song!
Love the feel of this tune.
A heavy list for 28 days. Very enjoyable. I hope we see more from you in days to come.
