This is Lorelei Loveridge's 'demo' page. It is dedicated to friend and co-writer Elizabeth Ward who passed away on Wednesday, December 19th, 2007 in the morning, her loved ones with her, her daughter holding her hand, and strangers from across the globe holding them all in a circular embrace of love and compassion. Every effort will be made, as promised to Liz before she passed on, to record her music and share it with the world. Peace be upon her and upon us all.

Lyrics
Let Me Age Gracefully Lyrics © 2006, Liz Ward, BMI Music © 2006, Lorelei Loveridge, SOCAN I can’t walk a straight line Through the circle of time I can’t float illusions On a sea of denial   I can’t nip, tuck, or suck out Everlasting youth I’m getting old, I will die It’s a simple truth   [Chorus] Let me age gracefully My life is still sweet Let me be in the vanguard The social elite I am present, I am legion I’m your history Where will you go If you don’t follow me   Don’t rob me of meaning I am wisdom evolving I’m seeking my higher self I am harmonies resolving   I won’t recant my life To allay your worst fears I am more than loose skin I will take my place here   [Chorus]   [Bridge] And when I grow too weak Care for my soul I am your future You go where I go
