I am a composer and a lyricist. Currently I have a sound clip of one of my first songs called Journey, which I am in the process of re-recording. I also have several other pieces I am working on including instrumental selections for the harp. Thanks for checking out my web page. Please check back often for updates!

Lyrics
Mississippi Queen By Stephanie Miller Once on the Mississippi Queen I met a lover who was so mean. The promise of marriage and love in store That nine months later a son I bore Riding on the Mississippi Queen Riding on the Mississippi Queen Had a closed wedding without a ring But soon I began to feel my eyes sting When my once true lover did me disown And then I was left all alone. Riding on the Mississippi Queen Riding on the Mississippi Queen Heading out on the train tracks Saying by to Mississippi never coming back. Now I must make my life brand new Far from the only home I knew Leaving the Mississippi Queen Leaving the Mississippi Queen Bridge: Even though it looks an awful fate I do not think I have made a mistake Because I learned what it is to choose To live my life, to love and loose Now I’m making a decent living Despite what happened on the Mississippi Queen Living my life the best I can Leaving my life in God’s hands Now I’m making a good living Despite what happened on the Mississippi Queen Living my life the best I can Leaving my life in God’s hands Away from the Mississippi Queen Away from the Mississippi Queen Away from the Mississippi Queen
