Something different... although as you listen you’ll say same ol same ol.... here’s the different part... my G5 in my studio gave up the ghost... but I back up everything so I brought my files into my office and installed Logic, where I proceeded to mix with my sound sticks... low and behold, I think my office is a better place to mix... so the question is... why do I have those mackie monitors... I can definitely hear better in here, than in the studio... my studio lies to me...
This song was not on my radar at all... It’s about a decade old... and the other night I walked into my office to find my wife sitting and listening to my MJ page... she was a little miffed because she had never heard “Perfect Storm” before... I was just happy that she was genuinely interested... off the cuff she brought up “walk strong” and mentioned that it was one of her fav’s, and that I had never recorded it... that was all I needed... in the middle of the session my computer died... so I left the song with just guitar and 1 vocal for now... took my audio files off my lacie and finished it in my office...
I have only ever played this for friends and I didn’t realize that it was over 7 1/2 minutes long... so I trimmed as much as I could... it used to end with three choruses in a row getting stronger and stronger so that by the end it feels real up and positive... this edit leaves the song feeling quite a bit different, but even as it sits it is still too long

Lyrics
HE LOST A GREAT JOB THEY SAY
NOW HE HOLDS TWO
HIS CHILDREN AND WIFE MUST PAY
THESE BILLS COME DUE
REMEMBERING GOLDEN DAYS
WERE THEY TOO FEW
BEFORE SPARROWS FELL TO PREY
THEY SAY GOD KNEW
WALK STRONG ONE MORE DAY
WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY
I CAN HEAR HIM SAY
WALK STRONG FOR ONE MORE MILE
HE WAS OUR FOOTBALL STAR
HE FELL TOO SOON
HIS ACCIDENT LEFT ONE SCAR
HIS LEGS DON’T MOVE
EACH AUTUMN IS A BITTER PILL
HIS LIFE FEELS SMALL
HE ROLLS TO THE WINDOW SILL
TO WATCH LEAVES FALL
WALK STRONG ONE MORE DAY
WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY
I CAN HEAR HIM SAY
WALK STRONG FOR ONE MORE MILE
PLEASE WALK STRONG
PLEASE WALK STRONG
WALK STRONG
SHE SITS BY HIS CRIB ALL NIGHT
AND PRAYS HE’LL SLEEP
SHE KNOWS HE WILL LOSE THIS FIGHT
THIS CHILD SO SWEET
SHE WORKS TILL THE SUN GOES DOWN
SHE CAN NOT EAT
IF SHE COULD JUST TRADE HER STRENGTH
W/ THIS CHILD SO WEAK
WALK STRONG ONE MORE DAY
WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY
I CAN HEAR HIM SAY
WALK STRONG FOR ONE MORE MILE
NOW HE HOLDS TWO
HIS CHILDREN AND WIFE MUST PAY
THESE BILLS COME DUE
REMEMBERING GOLDEN DAYS
WERE THEY TOO FEW
BEFORE SPARROWS FELL TO PREY
THEY SAY GOD KNEW
WALK STRONG ONE MORE DAY
WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY
I CAN HEAR HIM SAY
WALK STRONG FOR ONE MORE MILE
HE WAS OUR FOOTBALL STAR
HE FELL TOO SOON
HIS ACCIDENT LEFT ONE SCAR
HIS LEGS DON’T MOVE
EACH AUTUMN IS A BITTER PILL
HIS LIFE FEELS SMALL
HE ROLLS TO THE WINDOW SILL
TO WATCH LEAVES FALL
WALK STRONG ONE MORE DAY
WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY
I CAN HEAR HIM SAY
WALK STRONG FOR ONE MORE MILE
PLEASE WALK STRONG
PLEASE WALK STRONG
WALK STRONG
SHE SITS BY HIS CRIB ALL NIGHT
AND PRAYS HE’LL SLEEP
SHE KNOWS HE WILL LOSE THIS FIGHT
THIS CHILD SO SWEET
SHE WORKS TILL THE SUN GOES DOWN

WE’RE NOT FAR AWAY
WHEN WE’RE HOME WE MAY SMILE
THIS WILL FADE AWAY

A simple song of truth and hope - I'm lovin' it, Scott.
