Story Behind The Song
a dead newborn kitten
ignored by my "neighbors"
run over right in front of his momma and left by people to rot in the middle of a parking lot..i took off my shirt wrapped him up and gave him a decent burial..sent him to the Summerlands....I took his momma and her two remaining cubs home..they are my muse.
Song Description
my songs are simply about the emotion that precedes the thought that instigates action (or inaction) ...just bits of what my life gently offers or kicks in my face.
This bit..decillionth slice of the time pie was a FACE-KICKER.

Lyrics
I stood down by the river
tears filled my eyes
a skipping stone
only leaves a ripple
all that lives is born to die
I search for an answer
in my heart
Sometimes when i'm dreaming
I'm watching the mountains
crumble in to the sea
Something inside tells me
All this must be...
I'm all out of questions
and finally free
still open to suggestions
on the way
Oh, what did she say to me (?)
I search for an answer
in my heart
Sometimes when i'm dreaming
Hiding and seeking
the stars play all night
Beauty unfettered by our
wrongs and rights
I'm waiting for answers
like lyrics to me
Something inside tells me
All this must be...
And i know deep in my heart..
That we all must play a part
oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh...
Hiding and seeking
the stars play all night
beauty unfettered by
our wrongs and rights
I'm waiting for lyrics
like answers to me
Something inside tells me
All This Must Be.
