about

This track is 2yrs old. Thanks to the advice of 2 friends: Ron Russell/Kathy Jonson I re-wrote it. As they say "the best songs are written and re-written." Now, i have no argument(never did, just lazy;)
I was babbling/mumbling lyrics into a mic for melody ideas(lyrically) But i always wanted to do this song. This isn't the finished product(Hence, "Yet to come" is a work in progress)so feedback is welcome.

lyrics

In the sea i'm swimming in i dive deep in the water
or a mind i'm fishing in
trying to find a thought to grab on or a ship passing over
or a dream down deep within
if i go a little further straight ahead not round the bend
just might find where i fit in
i'm alive and dreaming in the rain or in the snow
drinking sunlight with no shadows

1 mile ahead
1 mile ahead

In the dream i'm dreaming in with a face like a pillow
piecing everything broken
in a mind thats never resting a big hand seems is holding
about every direction
so i pick the road of life a smile on all that breathes
with a song tangled in leaves
reach up to grab a hand my arm just kept going
cause it's you where i begin

1 mile ahead
1 mile ahead
