(light country) Girl it's six in the morning daybreak dawning and deep down but not destroyed I'm a shadow of a love you knew inside a ring of fire and youth on a river of dreams passing through. Goodnight Mr. Moon somewhere I used to be I see you smiling at me. Good morning Mr. Day I know it's time again to be on my way with my world in your eyes I just can't stay. Girl it's about where we've been talkin chin to chin and all the things that matter are in the love and truth we knew inside a ring of fire and youth on a river of dreams passing through. Goodnight Mr.Love somewhere I used to be keeps you inside of me. Good morning Mr. Day I know it's time again to be on my way with my world in your eyes I just can't stay. I wrote the words/lyrics to this song a couple of years ago and finally found Mike McCaslin to colllaborate with me and put it to music. As a result the following can be heard at mp3 by going to mp3 and typing in the name michael mccaslin or the title of the song I don't ever write country music but this composer wanted it to be that way and he seemed quite anxious to do the song...as a result I'm not quite as pleased with the results as a country listener would be. You'll see my name mentioned in the credits there...thanks for listening! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.

Yes! I write a lot of songs to do onstage, and this one does have a country flair. I'm on my way to take a listen....... Poets and musicians are a match made in Heaven, you know!!!!  Live...Love...Be grateful for both!! |

Bravo ... applause, applause! Oh I'm so glad I didn't miss this Eric! I downloaded the Ferris Wheel one at first and wondered why nothing was matching, LOL. I finally downloaded the right one, and read along your words with the singer ... this is soooooo exciting! I just love it when poetry is placed to music. It's so amazing to me when words come together for poets, and yet to hear them placed to music ... it simply sweetens it to an even higher level. Congratulations ... the poetry itself is wonderful, and it was my pleasure to hear it sung! Wonderful!  Best wishes, /Kit |

ethome, congratulations. It is a fine song and sentiment, no matter what genre. You should be proud. (o: Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
