Alternative Country, soft rock, progressive rock, country, Christian country
I'm a former electronics technician who has been writing songs since the mid sixties. I have also been and advocate for people with disabilities, and much of my music came from that experience. I have been recording and producing original music on four track systems since the mid '80's and have recently gone to digital audio and MIDI recordings on computer. I have produced a "public access" music television show in 1986 and was a guest on a similar show in Cincinnati more recently. I have also produced and recorded original music; wrote and performed skits as part of the Second Step Players, a volunteer theatre troupe comprised of people with disabilities between 1988 and 1990

For my daughter Robyn Elizabeth, we miss you
Lyrics
Wish I knew what to say, shes not there any more
Wish I knew what to say, shes not there any more.
Does it matter what you do, when it all goes away?
Does it matter what you do, when it all goes away
Too many thorns, too many thorns,
Too many hearts and minds being torn
Too many thorns, too many thorns.
Another day, another life, another day to make it right
Another day, another life, another day to make it right
Find your chains in liberty, only truth will set you free
Find your chains in liberty, only truth will set you free
Too many thorns, too many thorns,
Too many hearts and minds being torn
Too many thorns, too many thorns.
What to say, what to say when it all goes away
What to say what to say when it all goes away.
Said and done, said and done, whats become, whats begun.
Said and done, said and done, whats become, whats begun.
Too many thorns, too many thorns,
Too many hearts and minds being torn
Too many thorns, too many thorns.
Said and done, said and done, whats become, whats begun.
Said and done, said and done, whats become, whats begun.
Wish I knew what to say, shes not there any more
Wish I knew what to say, shes not here any more.
