    I have a penchant for reading the notes on an album, even if it is a simple list of song titles and names of the players. WIthout the story of where the music originated, the story is lost. Enjoy this CD or give it to someone who will spin it occasionally.

about

Eventually, all song writers pen a song about the act. My study of buddhist teachings and impermanence came through this one. I recorded before finalizing lyrics so there are a couple changes today. Yes, here it is.

lyrics

Here's My Song

I write songs with no major keys
I’m a singer in the minor league
Write on with no reward, I’m a singer - here’s my song

The time has passed like it always will
Ticking onward year by year
Too slow too fast, full enough to spill
I’m a mother - even that won’t last

All these songs, all these notes all these spaces between
Stepping far, coming close I will always be....

It’s not my ears it runs through me, generations, at my heels
silence hears all the secrets I am nothing I’m a singer

All these songs, all these notes all these spaces between
Stepping far, then coming close I will always be the song
