Wish I Could Say While I look at this Faded picture of you In a dark rugged dress And some well-worn shoes Living each new day As it could be the last No mind to the future Til this one has passed If I could whisper in .....your ear today There are some things I wish I could say It’s been a long long time now And you’re still on my mind You Need to be so strong When you’re left alone And the wild rages on Wants to take you down If I could whisper in your … ear today There are some things I wish I could say I wish I could say I wish I could say I wish I could say

Tide is Rising The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) Rising from the sea We’re not ready to believe It’s coming for you and me The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) Playing from our hand Sinking all around you And climbing where we stand bridge rising……………. Oh…. rising rising……………. Oh…. rising rising………(stop) Can’t stop it anyway The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) The tide is rising …. (rising, rising) Moving to higher ground Too late to make a change Can’t stop it anyway

Second Look 02:57
A Second Look Sleepwalking through another day Missing half of what surrounds me now Trying to drink from a fire hose Stimulated yes, but numb somehow But I mean to live a different life Wake up and pay attention more Cherish all the tiny blessings (Take a) closer look at what I’m living for Snowflakes in the air Each one a little world so real A billion dances there  A second look reveals See the maple leaf and all its veins And how the moonlight flickers in your hair Never noticed all these things before How could I be so unaware Snowflakes in the air Each one a little world so real A billion dances there  A second look reveals Sweet love in the air I look at you now and that’s what I feel It was always there A second look reveals

The Forever Dance Together now, but falling apart We need to walkout, go on with our hearts Cause the future might give us another chance Maybe, new partners for the .. forever dance Something we built, but now it’s gone The music stopped, but we hold on Like yesterday was more than it was Like it was more than a……glimpse of love At the forever dance, …… at the forever dance They don’t give halos our, for burning the fire out Maybe we should splash it with water, when there’s no doubt I can gather my mistakes, up and roll Don’t believe either of use wants another go We tried to talk, all the truth and the lies Got hung up with the fear, of who is right At the forever dance, …… at the forever dance Chorus They don’t give halos our, for burning the fire out Maybe we should splash it with water, when there’s no doubt ………….. When there’s no doubt

he Blue Note Manhattan Meet me at The Blue Note Manhattan We'll hail a cab at dawn cross the Brooklyn home but now it's past midnight the jazz improv moves along it's going strong let's sing our song Get lost in the quiet refinement inspires the weary soul to let it all go the day's stress and pain ooooh The Blue Note Manhattan we can dream all day we can dream all night The city is alive It never sleeps Get lost in the quiet refinement inspires the weary soul to let it all go the day's stress and pain ooooh at The Blue Note Manhattan at The Blue Note Manhattan They can't reach me my phone is off I'll be in the back our favorite place waiting for you and only you...

Crossroad Station Standing, at the crossroad station Wondering how, could it be the end Lonely road, in no direction Broken hearts, could never mend Standing, at the crossroad station Staring eyes, do they see the pain? Searching, to find some connection Looking back, what was I to gain? Crying .... Crying deep inside Wondering ... Wonder if it’s time Moving on On a road to anywhere Standing, at the crossroad station Thoughts of you, amble through my mind In your eyes, so much temptation The years go by, in a flash of time Standing, at the crossroad station Decision time, need to choose a road Time for change, and a new direction Grab my bag, and set out on my own Crying .... Crying deep inside Wondering ... Wonder if it’s time Moving on On a road to anywhere

Pretty Lies 02:21
PRETTY LIES I don’t believe any of the  pretty things you say  You’re never specific, and it Just sounds cliche I wanna grow,  Wanna dig deeper, improve But you want me to be complacent, and  I can’t move Chorus:  Tell me the truth,  You don’t think that I’m as good as you Tell me the truth,  Pretty lies are just so cruel  Do you believe The pretty things you say?  Save the cocktail of niceties  I’ll take it straight Your platitudes are never aimed to help,  I don’t need you then,  I’ll do it myself.  Chorus:  Tell me the truth,  You don’t think that I’m as good as you Tell me the truth,  Pretty lies are just so cruel

Cliche 02:58
Cliche This love song, the music play Words and time, fall and rhyme A melody, here to stay Lovers lost, all track of time This love song, you feel warm Heartbeat’s racing, with the wind Sweet harmony, before the storm At speed of light, it was the end That same old love song Your heart it can sing along You can read between the lines Same old song... same old love song again This love song, made for two Love is blind, and now you see Falling in love, can make you blue Against the wind, it’s me or you . This love song, strikes a chord Sour notes, and diamonds rough If time could tell, fly or soar Silver linings, won’t be enough Ad Lib: “There is always...... some madness in love.” “There is always...... some reason in madness.” (Frederick Nietzsche) In love we believe ...... things happen for a reason Then madness for sure....... is a love song cliché

This Road Is Long Stay with me baby This road is long Stay with me baby This road is long Don’t know if we can make it If our love’s not strong Walk with me baby I can’t do it alone Walk with me baby I can’t do it alone Don’t know if we can make it If our love’s not strong Talk to me baby I can’t read your mind Talk to me baby I can’t read your mind Don’t know if we can make it If our love’s not strong Stay with me baby Cause this road is long Stay with me baby Cause this road is long Don’t know if we can make it If our love’s not strong

This album was composed and recorded over the last three year during February Album Writing Month (FAWM) and a similar summer event called 50/90.

This 10-track EP showcases five vocalists from around the world who have collaborated online to add their talent to this album and without their support and commitment this album wouldn’t have happened.
