Accoustic Ballads, Pop and Atmospheric Instrumentals

I've been writing since the age of 16, mostly accoustic ballads, pop and instrumentals. Started recording stuff when I bought a 4-track tape recorder in 1988. I did quite alot of recording with this limited equipment and progressed to DAW work with Cubase. Now that the limitations have all but dissappeared, I don't have as much time as I did back then...

Lyrics

We sow the seeds too hard 
And plant the stones again 
You're close to the age of walking on your own 
They say that life's just beginning 
They'll say that 'till the end 

Can't see the sky no-more 
No life to lead astray 
And work to the day your blue sky cries alone 
I want to see the beginning 
To see it 'till the end 

You won't deny it now 
It means you're looking straight 

I want to see the beginning 
To see it 'till the end 
I want to be the beginning 
Believing 'till the end
