To say that this has been a week from hell would be apt...-10F here and I lost my voice for real I think from the cold and being outside dealing with snow,etc.
In addition the property where the Hermit Shack sits was sold just at Christmas and I was a whisker from being homeless. I just found out last night that I can stay!
Anyway I hope that I am getting this in before the deadline, my voice is still trashed but I decided to just do one take and let it be.
Here you go please forgive me this is a poor performance and the song is still a work in progress...I like the concept but I am still working on the music and arrangement.
Peace everyone
I know it seems
That all your dreams
Are taking so long
To come
Better to wait
It must be fate
Someday Thy will
Be done
But there's a fine line
That's lost somehow
Cause the right time
Is always now
And as the days
Are passed away
What are you going
To do
When you get clear
It's just your fear
Standing in front
Of you
And you might find
You're feeling down
But the right time
Is always now
You've come to say
You're on your way
Don't know where you
Will land
I think you'll see
You're destiny
Is easy
To understand
You will find grace
It's not so far
Cause the right place
Is where you are
I hear you've seen
The grass is green
That's where you want
To go
Take it from me
Before you leave
There's something you need
To know
Where your life takes you
May be hard
But the right place
Is where you are
Yes the right time
Is always now
And the right place
Is where you are
It is so much harder to write a song like this when we are struggling for real.
I hope we all can hear this type of wisdom when the chips are down.That's a great song @onetrubrother!
To tell you the truth when "I" write songs like this, it seems more like a message for me even more than a message I am sending, but it is very moving that other people connect with them. Thank you very much.
Like Bob Marley said "Jah wrote all dem' songs anyway"
Peace
Sounds so good @onetruebrother. Having my first cup of coffee and this song is just what I need to hear to start the day.
I completely agree!! I admire you SO much @OneTrueBrother.. you are one of the most genuinely original and talented songwriters here at Steemit.
