Lyrics

night, she makes
a long, black braid

what's in a name
to someone far above the world

where i'm flying/over your town
-it's lit up like a little jewel;
a shimmering, gold crown...

from the air/these lives
don't seem so far away...

and just before
they grow to a crowded roar
i turn away
from one more everyday

	Mellow I love the sound of your voice. You have a Nick Drake kinda feel. I would really like to see your lyrics. Something sounds not quite right production wise, I think it is the mic. I wish I could offer some advice, but I am struggling with the same thing. Otherwise, very good stuff! Check out my latest song called Your's

	Interesting and very well done. I keep expecting the noisy guitar and drums to kick in for a climactic chorus that never comes, so I'm left with sense of anticipation that is not relieved. I find the effect this has on me interesting.

	Mysterious Lyrics I listened to this because I heard your "Weight" song and thought I'd check out your other tunes. I really like your lyrics. They are simple but mysterious at the same time. Your voice is soothing. I hope you post more eventually. You have a fan in me! Check out my latest song called Monica's Waltz

	Needs a Kick! I agee with Mungo. There needs to be a kick in of something else. That could be strings, synth, or even heavy guitar and drums, but something more. I do like what you have, but it needs to also be louder. Check out my latest song called Smoove

	Pay no attention to those who are waiting for loud guitar licks, hooks and bridges. The simple, unorthodox construction of this piece is its real power. Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

	Poetry A voice like wind thru a curtain, acoustic guitar like shadows, a slight organ-glass wash like moonlight. Poetry set to perfect music. This is pure moment. Excellent. Check out my latest song called Forge A New Life (MJRF)

	Signed, sealed and delivered A wonderful, intimate song of yearning. Not really sure I understand the meaning of all the words but it really doesn't matter. You create a splendid vantage point for reflection. This has the warmth and connection of an acoustic Seal song.

	Open Love the open vowels in your rhymes. They way you sing.

	Poetry Woman are gods. From the sky. Especially women with hair long enough to braid. Check out my latest song called The Androgyne
