Singer/songwriter since 1965. Have published a few songs, in the distant past, for other artists to use but this is the first time I have released any performed
Singing to a love as yet unmet... at the time :-) Eventually fell in love with a sailor - go figure!
Lyrics
I set my sails for distant shores,
find myself lost upon yours.
Somehoe I've run aground,
turned around to find I'm drowning
in a pool of cool, clear moonlit feelings.
All around, the shadows softly steal away,
leaving me without shade or shelter.
All at once, I am becalmed;
motionless, I am disarmed.
No star to guide me through,
lost in you, I'm without bearings,
Adrift without a compass or a chart.
There is no sound beyond
the beating of my heart,
ticking over without conscious effort.
There is no rturn.
This much I have learned.
You always were
the point of the journey.
Now there's no more I can do,
than to take my lead from you.
All around your tidal changes,
rearranging my ebb and flow.
I come and go,
from ocean deep to solid ground.
Drifting slowly in a spiral,
round and down,
through the mists that swirl around
Basking in your sunlight.
There is no return.
This much I have learned.
You always were the point
of my journey.
I will not turn away
from where you are.
You'll always be the point
of all my journeys.
