Sample clip (Coming Soon)
When the world is much to hard to take
I leave it all behind-
I go to where my heartbeat meets
The silence in my mind
There’s just one place I want to be
Where my soul is part of every tree
My conversation with the earth and sky
Is just between God and I
HOME ---where the meadows meet me
HOME--- where the green grass greets me
And the creak in the front door knows my name
When I’m HOME SWEET HOME
When I’m HOME SWEET HOME
I no longer need to catch the wind
I’ve chased it far too long
It whistled in my own backyard
But I couldn’t hear its song
Till the morning sun and moon at night
Lit up my mind ---- and shed some light
Dare to dream …until you dance on air
Dreams right there at my back stairs
CHORUS
Now if my dreams should crash and crumble
I always have my home
Together we can weather any storm alone
Come hell or high waters
If I have to sing for quarters
I’ll be singing a dream
That’s my own
Back home…. where the meadows meet me
HOME--- where the green grass greets me
And the creak in the front door knows my name
When I’m HOME SWEET HOME
HOME SWEET HOME
Songwriting Inspiration:
In 1984 I purchased my first house It was not the kind of residence one associates with buying you first home: a 19,,000 sq ft Country Club with 9/18 hole golf course, complete with blacktop parking for 800 cars, 3 large industrial catering kitchens, a banquet hall, a ballroom, 2 wall to wall bars ,6,000 pieces of china/glassware and silverware,150 lockers/ showers/ pro shop, 24 golf carts, double Olympic swimming pool, 60ft turret, 30 ft ceilings…… located on 190 acres at one of the highest points in CT with spectacular vistas…….. and a stream running through the basement. I feel like I already live in heaven. I tell everyone… If I die tomorrow….don’t cry for me… have a big party …with a lot of food… I’m just going a few steps up from where I already am…….
