about

2012 is an album that will grow over the course of the year. My goal is to write and record one song per month (give or take a few days) and then post them here.

Track Name: Sweet Lady (January)
I say I've never known another as beautiful as you
You say that's because I have a biased point of view
Uh-uh, its just the plain and simple truth
There is a mark of perfection in most everything you do

Oh, sweet lady, you're so beautiful
Oh, sweet lady, amaze me with the things you do
Oh, sweet lady, can I get next to you?
Oh, sweet lady, a man could fall in love with you

You have compassion for the lowest of the low
You stay and listen, even if you need to go
You could care less about material wealth
You'd give your last dollar if you thought that it could help

Its in your smile
Your eyes
Your heart
Your Mind
Its in your spirit
Your voice
The way you make a choice
Its in your laughter
Your words
The lessons that you've learned
Its everything you are that makes you beautiful

Oh, sweet lady, you're so beautiful
Oh, sweet lady, amaze me with the things you do
Oh, sweet lady, can I get next to you?
Oh, sweet lady, a man could fall in love with you
Track Name: We come and we go (February)
I woke up this morning
The rain was still falling
I opened my eyes to a dull pale light
The sound of the season was rhythmic and pleasing
My dream slowly fading as I came to life

I was dreaming about dying
I was old and I was lying on a hospital bed
Being wheeled down a hall
A nurse walked beside me
She was pretty and smiling
And singing a song that I've not heard before

It went,

I'm going back to the start
Beginning to the end just a heart beat apart
My answers and my questions
My successes and mistakes
Left here to fade out as I'm reborn and replayed
Broke down and re-made
We come and we go
Track Name: Root and Roam (March)
You’re like a jigsaw puzzle with infinite pieces
Hard to put together when the picture keeps changing
One day a landscape of ocean and trees
Next, you’re the city lights, glass and concrete
A mountain with a hidden unreachable peak
Hiding in the clouds, alone and at peace
Those who try to reach you will tire and give up
As you protect the only thing you’ve ever truly loved

Freedom is your purpose, so go
Its clear that your heart is on the road
I’ll stay here and build a home
Because some were built to root
And some were built to roam

You are a perfect wave crashing on a distant shore
A breeze coming in through a closing door
A train's whistle moving through a stand of trees
A bird’s shadow drifting across a white sand beach
You are a meteor trail on a cloudless night
A back seat passenger catching a ride
A jet stream’s path fading on the blue
You were always meant to be on the move

Freedom is your purpose, so go
Its clear that your heart is on the road
I’ll stay here and build a home
Because some were built to root
And some were built to roam
