Sour sunshine I don’t mind Bitter mood and golden time But I’m smiling in the sun, oh the sun The same sun that’s for everyone, but it’s no fun There goes the day I won’t hold on I’ll pass on by you, I’m no-one Keep my glasses, close my eyes You know my head is where I’ll hide Sour sunshine, keep me warm A little too bright, shining strong I can feel it coming on The way I feel won’t meet the dawn I can feel it coming on The way I feel won’t meet the dawn

I am Running without stopping I am running without stopping I am in love I am at peace to know you I am at peace to know you A little peace will do Go on with your falling Go on with your falling Go on now Go on now Go on now Dance around a little lively, go again In your edges always moving, try to spring Mmm mmm mm mmm Mmmm mmm mm mmm Now evaporates on my temples, salty wind In the distance waves are crashing, breathe it in Mmm mmmm mm mmm

Dig a garden plant an idea That you might look forward to A seed of thorns that will push upwards Towards the sky when summer’s born Bright colours then smell runs through you It’s a certain time of year When the roses keep me welcome companyyyy Red rose city sky Red rose city blues Red rose city rumble Red rose city news Can you sit down with your longing? Hold its hand and calm it down While the clock hands turn around And your fears are lost and found Is the forest I long for a dream? Can’t turn away with being half content Is there something that I’m missing? That I know I’ll never get

Rolling slowly out of the bedroom Stretches all the pain away Another day, another heart ache Old losses taking up the space Days long but getting shorter x3 Oh I didn’t see that coming When you stepped and walked right in Oh you’re sweeter than the summer Filled with all its wondering I am a wave and you’re a particle, And we may not ever meet But our dreams might know each other When you’re walking down street

I was riding early morning But I could not find a friend Everywhere was smiling faces Just some devils in the wind Country dust up you they don’t know you But you know you don’t fit in Find the road and don’t pay them no mind All the colors of the mountains And the grasses splayed and shuddering My arms want to hold on to something When I can stand by your door again Kicking dirt roads need some good boots And a certain dead look in your eyes But you’ll be gone by next morning Maybe it’s better passing by

about

Inspired by creating a personal expression of private joys and cloudy desperation, in the spirit of early 1970s folk rock (James Taylor meets NRPS and Bert Jansch North of the border).

Taking a little bit of time here and there throughout the mid late summer to draft and sketch out song ideas, and short instrumentals, and then bringing it all together into a layered and prismatic whole. Adventures to be had in exploring your mind while laying back and letting healing take place, from all the roadblocks that we often share.
