From the recording The Altar
I remember sitting at the piano writing this song the evening before my dad passed away and must have finished it after the funeral as it reflects that day. I'd like to thank David Pepper for encouraging me to record and release this song and for his production work and brilliant guitar playing. Thank you.
Lyrics
Hear me
Oh can you hear me
Out in the heartland
I feel you near me
I wanna know you
I wanna feel you
Don’t go away now
Everyday I am with you
I’m right here beside you
I got money in buy pocket
I remember the day
That you put it there
Curtains blowing
Whiskey flowing
Wish I could have
One one day with you
I got worries
I got lonely days
He always
Seems in a hurry
Mixed emotions
Feel the ocean
Rips me open
A sea of emotion
Heal me
Oh can you heal me
Out in the wild sea
I feel you near me
Everyone gets high
Everyone gets by
Don’t go away now
As they’re falling under water
I’ll see you at the alter
I got money in my pocket
I remember the day
That you put it there
Land waterfalls
Who took it all
We never wanted
Haunted stories
Beautiful
Oh the alter
Holy water
Drips in silence
As it’s getting louder
Walk on my heels
It feels so real
I’ll see you
I’ll see you
See you later
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Run with you
To run with you
Run with you
Hear me
Oh can you heal me
Out in the wild sea
I feel you near me
Everyone moves on
Telling me be strong
What do I say now
As they’re falling under water
I'll see you at the alter
Oh I see you
I see you at the alter
Under holy water
Calling you home
Calling you home
