People have compared me to Cat Stevens, Mark Knophler and others. Personally, I can't say.
These are my songs I have written. Most are played and sung by me (acoustic guitar & vocal) but a few are not.

Lyrics
As Summer Slips Away (c)2005, David Van Camp (verse) I like walking on a sunny day to hear the laughter as the children play I like the things they do I like the things they say as summer slips away (verse) I like kissing in the pouring rain I like to feel you with no coat in the way I like the things you do I like the things you say as summer slips away (bridge) And oh! fireworks in July! Oh, oh, oh, as you hold me tight with you by my side every night you make everything just seem so right (verse) I like to bring you your breakfast in bed I like your smile as you eat your eggs I like the things you do I like the things you say as summer slips away (alt bridge) But when November comes around I'll go to the attic, bring our sweaters down And we'll snuggle up as close to the fire side (bridge) But, oh! Those hot August nights! Oh, oh, oh, when you turn out the lights and lay by my side and kiss me goodnight and make everything just seem so right (verse) I like the colors when the red sun sets and like, when I'm with you, just how nervous I get I like the things you do I like the things you say as summer slips away
