about

Written on 08.14.22.

The song means whatever you want it to mean.

I know what it means to me.

lyrics

"Stay wild" she says as she walks away from me.
I hate to see you go, but I love to watch you leave.

She speaks of love, the kind that leaves you down and out.
Longs for times of yore, when life would give her more.

She begs to differ, on the contrary.
And no one knows the stupid smile she gets from me.

You, guided by the moonlight,
while I'm waiting for the sun.
You, blinded by your own plight,
but I'm with you till dawn.

He sings the songs full of longing and regret.
From all that he's been through, an outlook not looked forward to.
He'll trudge along and run into these hazel eyes that shine a hint of gold that pierce right through a soul.

He's fine alone, don't need much to get him through.
As long as he can always keep an eye on you.

Now all we do is find a way to pass the days anew.

From the humid and moist lower valley, comes the sounds of a man that can only be described as "looking like someone you've seen before."

After a 5 yr hiatus, he's back with a new self produced, self performed, self promoted, self funded...

...you get the idea. ... more
