As I sink into the ground I become my eyes. As I sink into the ground I become everything I see. There were a million fireflies in the skies above us and you couldn't tell their light from the stars. And if tomorrow never gets here we'll never know the difference. As I sink into the ground I become my eyes. As I sink into the ground I become everything I see. Moving in, moving out moving in and out. Breathing in, breathing out breathing in and out. Breathing through our hearts. Breathing in and out.

Heaven is the life after the death. Heaven is the air after your last breath. Heaven is for the sinners God chose to bless. Heaven is for those who pass every test. God created heaven from our imaginations then he explained heaven in seven revelations. You can say a prayer at all fourteen stations but true belief is your only obligation Heaven is the paint moved by Michelangelo. Heaven is the sperm inside the embryo. Heaven is the place the devil dares not go. Heaven is the truth God said was so. The good lord created Original Sin Then he created redemption So we could all sin again Heaven is the life after the death. Heaven is the air after your last breath. Heaven if for the sinners God chose to bless. Heaven is for those who pass every test. For those who believe in redemption get to sin and sin again and again And walk on water Even when The waters are so deep And the ice is too thin.

I know this place, I've been here before. The curtains blowing in the open window, the smells from the kitchen. But when I awoke I found it was just a dream. I know this man, I've seen him before. The way he walks into the room. That face, those hands... But when I awoke I found it was just a dream. Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take. I know this song, I've heard it before. The melody and the chiming chords. The heart song that rings In my ears, in my ears... But when I awoke I found it was another lifetime. When I'm awake, When I'm awake I'm really asleep.

The light was busy dividing the day from the night. I was driving down a road with no end in sight. No yellow line to keep the left from right. And She saw that it was good. The water was thinking how the land was so hard. I was swimming in a pond in the back of my yard. There was nothing to keep my head from my heart. And She saw that it was good. And so these thing conspire to define reality. They do their dance before us you and me. And we put it all together in search of what might be, to find nothing in the void except what we choose to see. And She saw that it was good. The future was moving from the past, fast away. I was living in the center holding still on that day. There no way to know how long life would stay. And She saw that it was good.

about

These songs were written in 2020 - 2021 and are my debut recordings of original music with my own lyrics. I've written other songs with the lyrics by Ron English but these are my first completely from myself. It's been a lifetime of performance of great music from the heights of classical art song to the best of rock and roll but writing my own melodies and capturing my own thoughts is something that is unexpected at this point in my life, in my sixth decade! It's never too late.

about

Cloud Cover New York, New York

Writing and performing my own music is the most meaningful thing I have ever done and I want to share that with the world. My original music is inspired by the works of Joni Mitchell.

I have always known who I am and why I was born. I am a musician. From my earliest memories I have been captivated and fascinated by melody, harmony and rhythm.
