Hi to all. I've been playing for allot of years now. Have been in bands and frankly don't like the playing out thing much anymore, getting to old to pack all the gear and haul it around I quess. Recently I was a member of a three piece group posted as High Plains. Great music and great guys, but with the playing out thing and other more pressing issues decided it was time to sit back and just do what I love best, create the type of music I love best.

Lyrics
Verse 1 I carved your name in a maple tree I made it big so all could see The love in my soul, and that you belonged to me I put an arrow thru that heart This sealed the deal so we’d never part And you placed a flower for me, at the base of that tree Verse 2 We counted stars like grains of sand Your every wish was my command We shared our dreams, our hopes, and our plans You wanna teach third grade someday I’ll write my songs and sing and play Looking back, we dreamed our Love away Refrain For life’s simple goals, may not unfold To the path we intend to take And sometimes love it seems, we forsake And we tried our best with no success To make our true love stay Young lovers seem to dream, their love away Break Refrain For life’s simple goals, may not unfold To the path we intend to take And we tried our best with no success To make our true love stay Young lovers seem to dream, their love away Verse 3 I carved that heart when I was ten And you where nine and so divine And time has past, but the love will always last And though our paths did not entwine My heart still fills, when I come to find A flower for me, at the base of that tree A flower there for everyone to see A flower there to show you think of me
