SAVE THE DAY 06:34
“SAVE THE DAY” Can not you see that every moment of your life... It’s here and now that peace and joy are at your side? You talk to God with every thought You start the vibe… So know that everything’s all right… Can’t you see What you need? Don’t you know Which way to go? All this time…in your mind... Heard that song and you’d sing along... Start’s right here…then it floats away... Settles down...on a sunny day… Whoooooooooooooo... CHORUS (repeats after 2nd verse) All this time been holding on Never had a chance to use it... Just let go, when you hit the ground Love is gonna save the day… All this time been holding on Guess I was afraid to lose it... Just let go, when you hit the ground Love is gonna save the day… Love is gonna save the day Love is gonna save the Love is gonna save the Love is gonna save the day... SECOND VERSE Can’t you see What you mean to me? And don’t you know That we’re hear to grow? In this time...in this place... We sing the songs of the human race… Starts right here...then it floats away... Settles down...in the world today… Whoooooooooooooooo...

THE RIND 03:40
“THE RIND” Wait for another day… That’s what * you say… For another day… And then * you find, in your mind That the rind, left behind… It’s your dream, it’s your life And you’re happy you noticed... And your hands start to dance As you glance, at your chance It’s your dream, it’s today… We’re so happy you noticed... * = second verse replace you with you’d THIRD VERSE Wait for another day...
That’s what you’d say... For another day... But now you find, in your mind That the rind, left behind... Is your dream, is your life And you’re happy you made it... And your hands always dance When you glance, at the chance It’s your dream, it’s today... We’re so happy you made it...

THE RULES 03:42
"THE RULES" She stared right into the sun... Then she jumped in the pool... with all of her clothes on... Sunk down like lead, at the bottom she said... “Don’t read the rules…cause I wrote them…” SECOND VERSE One day we’re here, then we’re gone... Don’t waste all your days throwing salt in the ocean... For it’s here and it’s now that your life is in motion... So get out your spoon… We’ll dance on the moon... And we won’t need the rules… Cause we wrote them...

7.
“ALL THIS TIME” If you find your path in life begins revolving... Around a tree deep rooted in despair... Just close your eyes and watch the leaves come falling... Just like you did before you learned to fear... CHORUS (repeats after 2nd verse) Cause all of the time the light is drawing nearer... And all of this time deep inside…deep inside… All of this time the grass is growing greener… You open your * eyes and now you’ve found... now you’ve found your way… * second verse, only change = heart SECOND VERSE When the wall that blocks your sight begins dissolving... And in the night the vision becomes clear… No need to fight when spirit comes a calling… And tells you what you’ve always longed hear…
8.
“MIGHTY CASTLES” Shepherds are a strange breed, They wander to and fro… Tending to their last sheep, They pause to feel the flow… Of a million blades of green grass, Being combed through by the wind… * They step inside, and now * they see within… * last verse = Just, you’ll CHORUS Mighty castles in the sand We could build them with our hands… And as the ocean rolls away All the work we did today... Do you try to stop the waves from taking over? Or let it wash away... 2ND CHORUS Mighty castles in the sand We will build them with our heads… And as the ocean rolls away all the thoughts of yesterday... Will you try to let the weight roll off your shoulders? Just let it wash away… *last verse

“LITTLE GIRL” (inspired by the birth of my daughter Sedona Rose :) “Tiny little fingers and tiny little toes What the stork dropped off so the story goes. Sitting on the front porch waiting for the mamma to meet her... Every day’s been drawing closer, every night the dream is the same.. Now she’s got a chance to hold her… Funny how your life will change... With a little girl…”

about

"The Light Shines On..." is a compilation of songs that was developed over a three year period of inner exploration and emotional release...

I began recording in my apartment during the first year of living with my fiancee, and contemplating leaving my full time job that was depressing the bejesus out of me...and then continued recording when we moved into a house together after I left my job and spent a year soul searching...and then finished the album after my wife gave birth to our first daughter Sedona Rose...during her first year of life, (hence the bonus track titled "Little Girl").

The intention of the album is:

"To raise emotional vibration and to connect "the head with the heart" during the roller coaster ride of life"
