Coming Home

My Grandma passed away this week. She holds a piece of my heart as we have always been very close. She has always been such a supporter of what I've done and especially my musical endeavors. When she was able she never missed a concert and always had a smile and hug waiting for me at the end. She so kindly helped a great deal in my first full length album "Two for the Show." When my Grandpa passed a few years back I wrote a song entitled "Coming Home." It was about how, unbeknown to him or me, he had such a great impact on my life. The song never felt complete because I realized one day that my Grandma and Grandpa were a team. I finished the song this week, four years after I started it and now it finally feels finished.

V1
all things considered, i think i'm doing fine
for what just happened, my life changed on a dime
and in time

CH
i'm coming home, on a train bound glory
i'm coming home, with a book that holds his story
i'm coming home...

V2
i look out the window, it all looks the same
and i am reminded, the laughs on cherry lane
and i'm back again

CH
i'm coming home, on a train bound glory
i'm coming home, with a book that holds his story
i'm coming home...

V3
he is there lying, in his clothes of white
and she stands there crying, holding his hand so tight
loves perfect sight

CH
he's going home, on a train bound for glory
he's going home, with a book that holds his story
he's going home

BR
it's been so long
he's been watching over you
a sweet embrace
and an angels song is heard

and we all cry
cause we'll miss her smile so warm
but we all smile
to see her safely home

CH
and they are home. plant a garden tell your stories
they are home, with a love that's waiting for me
they are home

i'm coming home...

Sandy Amphitheater











































a few pictures from the sandy city amphitheater concert. great show for everyone in attendance. thanks to all those that made it so great including our sound man joe anderson. besides the TSA folks at the airport it was a perfect trip. i guess they've never seen cologne before because they were freaking out about it.
