If you could go To Lilly Braces's She'll make a mean meal She'll cook it right from the heart There you may find A little shy girl About to believe She can be all that she wants Oh choice Who could have known Without the directions We could find our way home And old world Speak not of chance I believe we assemble In the strangest of circumstance A boy slides down the trunk of a tree The world barely knows him And in these woods he feels free Settles down To think on the day's change Little knowing That he wonders way past his years Oh choice Who could have known Without the directions We could find our way home And old world Speak not of chance I believe we assemble In the strangest of circumstance Over the years As the wind cuts the stone Days lose their counting No mistaking they're gone And quite unexpectedly I suppose How lives will move around And so it goes I know a girl Who's in love with the small things Trembles in her wings Been picking up pieces for years And who knows how She fell over a wise boy Who fell over his heels Who fell into her Who knew falling could be so much fun With a hand In the strangest of circumstance

Change 05:34
As oceans know We could find ourselves Under the moon Way down below Before these tipping tides Hold your mind Suppose you stop Upon losing your way And the roots you leave behind Feet flat to the rock Head left wondering Wondering where to hide In these brokedown times Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun If you're afraid to try Let your feet go If you wait for your sign You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in 'Cos there's nothing but change In this strange light Seems like nothing so small Could make things alright But what peace we find Despite the rolling seas The crazy times I wish you land I wish you all the love you can And if you're in doubt Well we're all wondering Wondering where to hide In these brokedown times Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun If you're afraid to try Let your feet go If you wait for your sign You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in 'Cos there's nothing but change With no place to go See it slipping right by With nowhere left to grow As these days may dim Deep within you have Something to begin There's no place that stands That doesn't hold back the times cruel hands And no soul that feels That isn't wondering Wondering where to hide In these brokedown times Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun If you're afraid to try Let your feet go If you wait for your sign You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in 'Cos there's nothing but change nothing but change If you wait for your sign You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in 'Cos there's nothing but change

Slow Down 03:04
There's a road to where you're going There's a smile up on the hill There's a force at which you're flowing That determines your very own will Keep your feet where you tread And don't lose your head 'Cos you'll get tired of running round These days don't ask for too much more than you can give So slow down Well I can see there could be danger This could be the final step You see what we don't squeeze from nature The cards will lay to rest But the dealer's wise He hides his eyes In a cold game of glory These days don't ask for too much more than you can give Better you change your ways than the light by which we live Got no time and wrong intentions Nothing from you now So slow down With the momentum of a freight train You could sweep me off of my feet There's no change in your direction If your path is yours to keep And if you close the door like the time before And run the whole mile just to save yourself These days don't ask for too much more than you can give Better you change your ways than the light by which we live Got no time and wrong intentions Nothing from you now So slow down
4.
Heading down to easy Got a buzz to find I heard a sweet wind blows this time We don't need a reason We could find a way Follow the feelgood Chase the day And while we're searching we can dream 'Cos you fell for the world We fell for the world And fill our days up blue and green And whisper the words We fell for the world Little known horizon Won't you lead me do This time my home lies over you It's not just in the knowing It's in the way we move Wrapped up in wonderlust like fools ( Chorus ) See I can't help believing As much as we may know These moments more than miles will show Caught up in the motion We could lose our days Only to find we've found our way ( Chorus ) Rolling out of Roanoke I'm gonna see some good folks I'm proud to call my friends Jerry's on the radio We got to get to see the show And fall once again Kicking up dust 'till the end ( Chorus )

Still Here 03:43
The morning light Is breaking low Upon these islands The time turns slow Among the green Behind the blue There lie the ways That we once new So bring your smile And spread your cheer Make true the wise While we're still here 'Cos we're still here The midday burns As changes seep Beyond these times The fires burn deep Before we break The trust we've earned Make good the ways That we once learned So bring your smile And spread your cheer Make true the wise While we're still here 'Cos we're still here The midnight mends In calm and cool In water's swell With the stones we threw May hearts hold more And hands give free As guardians all In ways are we So bring your smile And spread your cheer Make true the wise While we're still here 'Cos we're still here

If I didn't know better I'd while away these days Moving only when the weather Turns my skin cold and so I'd go Back in the hope that Days gone by could turn another way But where would that leave me? And if I'd know this Was leading up to now I'd make no other mind But hold on to this beauty I find It's just the way we go around In this, the space that we surround And I'm calling out for more That we can chase this good life And make this music we adore And if upon a melody That speaks of no doubt We find a piece of home Then freedom be bound We've found a way If I only knew better I'd know where to begin Like a tall tale story told With a brand new spin Find a beat and make a friend 'Cos right now will never come again In this, your moment Is this not what you're waiting for? And if I'd know this Was leading up to now I'd make no other mind But hold on to this beauty I find It's just the way we go around In this, the space that we surround Break back beat with the hi-hat kick Snap back to the coast Where the congas called the most Six eight, smoke late, sun soak, broke Sneaking down through the hills The skinny dip thrills One hot show With the three two go go Make no money but the more we play... Flaking out to the fire and the fallen stars Smile and yawn when the sunlight's ours No hate sleep late no, no, no mistake A cool blue breeze on the back bone bites A cold tip of timbales cuts Upright like glue true tap tone groove When the band begin to move And I'm calling out for more That we can chase this good life And make this music we adore And if upon a melody That speaks of no doubt We find a piece of home Then freedom be bound We've found a way And outside We can be more than we fear Outside We can be changed And outside We can hold all that we hear With a little tune Ringing in our ear

If you could spare the moment And put aside the ways that you go If you could share the load friend It wouldn't take a lot Just to let a friend know I sure do need a change A southern sky to hold me upright A hand to hold for when it rains And I would know the ground beneath my feet is alright We could spend our whole lives Chasing these shadows around Only to find The way becomes the chains that bind you inside We turn the wrong way This road will not lead to the light You can keep your dark days That I know are no friend of mine You're in and out of old ways Pretty soon gotta stop Or we may go down Or we may find the words are too cold Seemingly losing their rhythm and rhyme A call back to the hearts that we hold Never need knowing when feeling's just fine We could spend our whole lives Chasing these shadows around Only to find The way becomes the chains that bind you inside We turn the wrong way This road will not lead to the light Deep as the hole that you're digging Far as the way left to climb Man this is no way of living We could spend our whole lives Chasing these shadows around Only to find The way becomes the chains that bind you inside We could spend our whole lives Chasing these shadows around Only to find The way becomes the chains that bind you inside We turn the wrong way This road will not lead to the light

Go get your fire and find your way back home 'Cos the width of a river Is the length of a bridge I'm told Go find your mind and take what you find to be free 'Cos the weight of our worries is finding the time to see Won't you tell the four winds To blow my soul away I need to dream A dream is all I ask of today And if my feet could Pick up on a different beat, well We could dance And wonder where the time begins So often broken, is rarely found In this fire we can't hold but just can't do without Sing, play, dance, smile, love Won't you come on round this way Befriend your ways, won't you Follow closely inside 'Cos you're counting the days But you're falling short of just right Get on your train And change with the tide when you fall With your mind full of moon you may find you're not falling at all Won't you tell the four winds To blow my soul away I need to dream A dream is all I ask of today And if my feet could Pick up on a different beat, well We could dance And wonder where the time begins So often broken, is rarely found In this fire we can't hold but just can't do without Sing, play, dance, smile, love Won't you come on round this way Pick up your threads And wind your way back round May the depth of an ocean find you In one step over ground Take on your fears If the world around you seems so cold 'Cos a curious mind is a key you can find To walk the weight of this world Won't you tell the four winds To blow my soul away I need to dream A dream is all I ask of today And if my feet could Pick up on a different beat, well We could dance And wonder where the time begins So often broken, is rarely found In this fire we can't hold but just can't do without Sing, play, dance, smile, love Won't you come on round this way Won't get your fire And find your way home Your way home Won't you get your fire And find your way

Home 04:23
Home Where I wanted to go But for, this soul Why can't we drop these heavy loads Well surely my friend A change has got to come One day these waters That keep you May just free you Don't be so sure That the days will betray you You don't want to make friends with the night Even when your light is low You can tell yourself It just isn't so If you care to And if that undertow Takes you way further than you know Brother steel your mind 'Cos where you go Your heart may find Who knows If you wade in high There could be days that catch you right So reach out another hand Help build another plan Make it known If there's someone out there Somebody who knows these bones Won't you pick them up and take them home No less than time Could be hanging between you And the howling winds we feel And best known to those who brave These tides and ride these waves And if when the oceans rise Among these hills our souls may hide And know the beating sound I pray you find your way around Who knows If you wade in high There could be days that catch you right So reach out another hand Help build another plan Make it known If there's someone out there Somebody who knows these bones Won't you pick them up and take them home And we'll carry these roots and chains And know this ground by name Home

Riverway 04:47
I thought I saw a piece of you today Under a fallen elm I tried to see it well Must have been the way I walked along I can't recall another time I loved a day so fine I'm on my way back To find out Just what could have changed If I'd said it out loud And maybe there's something in the quiet times And it's spinning us round And it's keeping our eyes wide open And it's making this sound Right back into the riverway I thought I heard a way up through the clouds But I was wrong, the thunder rose Broke down and we laughed out loud Maybe this old mountain's holding on To what we came to call our own Back round the rooster home I'm on my way back To find out Just what could have changed If I'd said it out loud And maybe there's something in the quiet times And it's spinning us round And it's keeping our eyes wide open And it's making this sound Right back into the riverway I fell over my shoes the other day I don't know why I put them on Barefoot is much more fun Thinking back I reached up round the light Made a way out to the coast This road I miss the most I'm on my way back To find out Just what could have changed If I'd said it out loud And maybe there's something in the quiet times And it's spinning us round And it's keeping our eyes wide open And it's making this sound Right back into the riverway I found myself adrift among the waves No stars to pull me in Cut loose but I'd been saved Take me back to the riverway Cut loose but I'd been saved

Lightning 04:36
Just as the sunlight Warms my face Lightning seems to strike Another place I'd follow the faintest flight A born fool for a wonder filled night Mix a melody to mend these bones Break the devil and the sticks and the stones If I run where the wild winds play Pretty soon I'd be headed your way Tip the rhythm as the moon rolls round We all shuffle on shaky ground In all these lights We're more than tribes Just as the sunlight Warms my face Lightning seems to strike Another place

about

Recorded on my own with a couple of mics in the spare room of my home. These songs were forged in nature, on distant beaches, dusty tracks, cool tropical forests and sun soaked open roads. They echo the good hearted souls I've met along the way and the deep connection we can all feel with everything outside of what we define to be ourselves.
