When I was 22 a young lawyer took one of my songs and put it on the ‘B' side of his recording of Ave Maria. He invited me to watch the recording session at Criteria in Miami, Florida. Since that moment all I have ever wanted was to have my music recorded by professional musicians and sung by established artists. This truly is a monumental task as I do not perform live so I have recorded my own material as a means to get exposure and as a way for artists to be able to judge the “cover” worth of my songs. I am looking for a publishing deal. Contact Info: Jim Blachura C/O Stablesongs Phone: 336 995 0813 E Mail: saintlymanmusic@yahoo.com Saintly Man Music /ASCAP

Story behind the song
the original song from which the words are taken was written when I was a teenager...they are combined with a later set written in the late nineties and the chords are those used in "How Good Is God" ...a song about being alone (not lonely) and enjoying that buzz...kind of a 21st century 'Mother Nature's Son'...
Lyrics
Humming birds in the sky you know how I feel When a breeze drifts on by you know how I feel That flame right in front of you touch it with your hand In the quiet and solitude right where you stand When the fire gets down low and the wind begins to blow Just reach down deep into your heart to kindle the warmth And feel the glow When the river's running free you know how I feel When there's blossoms on the trees you know how I feel That flower right in front of you touch it with your hand In the quiet and solitude right where you stand That small flower is all you need now there ain't no one else anyhow 'Cause there ain't nobody can play your heartstrings like you know how To make 'em sound Bridge (vocal chorus) ...'cause I got my feet on higher ground Dragonflies in the sun you know what I mean Butterflies on the run you know what I mean Catch one right in front of you cup it in your hand In the quiet and solitude right where you stand It's a brand new way; It's a brand new dawn Sleep in peace when the day is done, oh, sleep in peace when the day is done Get your feet on higher ground sleep in peace when the day's unwound Get your feet up on higher ground sleep in peace when the day's unwound

Really good song - but not a great recording. No stereo width at all, sounds like mono.
