Lyricist on an endless quest for the perfect melody.
I'm afraid I can't claim to be a band, although I have been known to jump on a bandwagon from time to time. No, I'm just a humble lyricist who is in absolute awe of the composers who have stumbled into my life and bothered to wrap a melody around some of my words. I've been attempting to legitimately call myself a lyricist since I was about 14 years old. Have a listen, won't you, and let me know if I qualify.

Story behind the song
This was a tribute to my parents on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary. It was also played as a farewell tribute at my father's funeral.
Lyrics
I'd Do It All Over Greg C. Brown and Mike DeShazer Beneath an ageless new moon we stand, You an old woman, and I your old man, Staring at night stars eyes rimmed with tears, Fondly recalling the sweet passing years. We've had it quite good though times were hard, Struggling with money, but we never starved. Beautiful children turned out alright, And I'd do it all over with you in my life. I'd do it again without hesitation, I'd tell you "I do" with no reservation. To go around twice, I'd sign up tonight To have you and hold you as husband and wife. There isn't a doubt, I wouldn't think twice, I'd do it all over with you in my life. Sitting beside you on that old couch, Looking at photos and laughing out loud. Dreams have not faded, mem'ries are new, Pleasures were plenty, the sorrows were few. (Chorus) Age is a number, keeper of time, Counting the rungs on this ladder we climb. But time cannot still this love that resides, I'd do it all over with you in my life. I'd do it all over with you in my life.
