I&#8217;m sleeping on a luxury bus parked on my friend&#8217;s property.   I started writing and editing and writing more.  Then I turned the bus living room into my own recording studio. Oh, it&#8217;s crappy. Without my equipment at home, the hardware inside the computer does not make for ideal sound recordings. But I made do with what I could, and I&#8217;m really excited about this brand new song.  I started it a few years ago, but had little more than the chorus. I attempted to finish it a few times, but didn&#8217;t get anywhere and let it go.. A rock show I recently went to, coupled with this retreat and recent events in my life unleashed me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lyrics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you think you\u2019re going ~ Tell someone I know<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get the information flowing ~ My direction if you go<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cuz if you go I may just have to see you one more time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I can turn off the light and put\nit to rest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The way you lit up the night the last\ntime we met<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when you looked at me ~ I could\nnot catch my breath<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was undone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So if you think you\u2019re going ~ Tell someone I know<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get the information flowing ~ My direction if you go<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cuz if you go I may just have to see you one more time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I can turn off the light and put\nit to rest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The way you lit up the night the last\ntime we met<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And how you looked at me for a second\ntoo long<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would be easier- if -I knew I was\nwrong<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hardly spoke BUT where you went I\nwas aware<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when I turned around I\u2019d find you\nin a stare<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You pulled my focus apart, unanchored\nmy heart, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was undone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So if you think you\u2019re going ~ Tell someone I know<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get the information flowing ~ My direction if you go<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cuz if you go I may just have to see you one more time\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess you could say I&#8217;m on an artists retreat, though it&#8217;s not quite what I set out for.
