There's nothing I'd rather do than play music. I write my own songs, but also enjoy playing the work of Kate Wolf, Richard Thompson, the Grateful Dead, and many other musicians too numerous to mention. The songs I write tap into the same veins of insight, inspiration, and ecstasy that my favorite musicians channel so well.

Story behind the song
Sometimes, when we cross paths with a lover, it's because we're going in different directions....but when that becomes apparent and the relationship ends, we want to believe it was THEIR fault, not ours!
Lyrics
You say she’s just like me I have to disagree 2X We’re not alike at all I found that out the hard way When I showed her all the deep Painful stuff I keep hidden inside, When I trusted her with my Heart of hearts, She made a face and an ugly noise Took a big step back Left me feeling like a fool chorus Not that our friends hadn’t warned me Not that she hadn’t warned me And we’d had such good times Leading up to that awful moment Sometimessometimes not, honestly Funny how much alike our fathers seemed We joked about them playing golf together Never saying a word about us Their prodigal children If our fathers were alike We might be alike too! Chor. When I left my wife and children Well you know I had to find myself When I let my mother die without me Being there was somebody else’s job And I didn’t have time to listen To my best friend’s heartache I had things that needed doing When I told my sister to just stop whining I was teaching her an important lesson (inst. Break) So don’t you try to tell me That I’m getting back what I put out You say she’s just like me I have to disagree (2X) We’re not alike We’re not alike We’re not alike at all No way!
