Song Lyrics
Lonely Soul.As I shuffle through the fallen Autumn Leaves,My mind wanders back to where you were.I walk pass a cemetery, a lonely widow grieves,A chill wind...
As I shuffle through the fallen Autumn Leaves, My mind wanders back to where you were. I walk pass a cemetery, a lonely widow grieves, A chill wind blows and I feel the same as her.
We lose, we win, cant find a place to begin again. Time heals, they say, you ain’t always gonna’ feel this way. I hope it’s true, cant ever see me forgetting you, So what is a lonely soul supposed to do.
Make my way ,down another grey city street, Black clouds reflected in the glass and steel there. And as the rain falls, the puddles form beneath my feet, And I feel just like James Dean in Times Square.
Chorus.
Solo.
Might as well go home, and watch reality TV, Because nothing out here seems like it’s real to me. Thinking as the darkness falls, why did you set me free, And just like the widow I wonder , what future can there be.
Chorus.

This is such a wonderful tune, Mark. Very nicely done, and I love the lyrics. I have played this a number of times on MixStream Radio here on Mixposure. Cannot believe I never commented, but that is remedied now. I'll be playing this again this week on Saturday Night Rocks.
Great tune, Mark.

Sweet melodies with a touch of sadness. Vocal is a strenght along with the melodies of the guitars. A very fresh track that sounds familiar is some way. Timeless, I would say. Another great tune from another solid musician. Keep on. Thanks for the listen.

my man, this is brilliant, it's like a fresh breeze of the best of the classic British 2nd invasion, with a little bit of psychedelia and Beatles a la George Harrison...believe me, this is all good...i think alot of people who like solid songs would love this..I'll be back...love the singing style and harmonization arranging...you seem to know exactly how to mix your voice, you have your own sound and that's not easy at all...thought of a couple of intereting things while listening to this one..thanks for sharing your work!!

Uuuh, the guitar melody is fantastic. Sound is great as well as the way you play your guitars. (Though you're a bass player!lol!) This song is a real breathing one. I know sometimes it's very hard to make a song breathe. But on this one you did it perfectly. I will add it to my palylist!

The last few years, have been a time of self discovery, of spiritual refreshment, ego cleansing, realisation and revelation.
Realisations …Not only about...
The last few years, have been a time of self discovery, of spiritual refreshment, ego cleansing, realisation and revelation.
Realisations …Not only about the world around me, relationships and the nature of the material energy.. but of my own needs, desires and faults.
I have come through some tricky times.. i believe a more balanced and in many ways a moreliberated person..
Liberated from old and debilitating patterns of thought and behaviour, but also from bad association. Or at the very least I can now deal better, with negative and controlling influences.
This personal sojourn into self realisation, was necessary.. but now I find myself rediscovering my first love.. Music.
And its sweet and satisfying to be back creating some songs, and recording again.
These days I am happy to keep it simple, but hopefully some of this new material will be… at the least… fun to do, and perhaps pleasing to some ears.
I’m also getting to grips with new recording processes… (not so easy, as I move into my Twilight years),
I also hope to re-establish some old friendships here, and looking forward to hearing as much new music as possible.. and hearing music I have missed.
Fantastic songwriting........ great lyrics, vocals, and musicianship. Really enjoyed my listen, Mark.
