about

Loosely based on the parable of the Prodigal Son. Music inspired by Shawn Mullins' "Eggshells" album, which to this day still remains my favorite acoustic singer/songwriter album. Tuned the guitar to DADGBE and felt really awesome doing it.

lyrics

its been years since i walked this place
it's been years since the memories
of a love long forgotten
to touch the hem of your coat
and to feel your presence
like our bond was never broken
and I had not made it home for a lifetime
i wandered the paths of change
rode waves of confusion
and I longed for the yearning
these people they touched my soul
this place calls to my spirit
and says child you’re still only growing
and I have come many miles in a lifetime

sing to the sky in her blueness
and ride on the wind as it blows
and love with a love that keeps on giving
look here and see now, I am your native son

many people have journeyed with me
lacked a heart of compassion
their eyes blind to the beauty
it’s not far to the end of the road
to the place called lonely
where hope is just a memory
but I’ll find hope in you for more than a lifetime

sing to the sky in her blueness...

can you see it love comes around
can you feel it round and around and around
