Singer-songwriter Scott Gordon offers superbly crafted songs in a mostly progressive pop-rock genre with a sensitivity to varied audiences. Unique and innovativ

I am a singer-songwriter who writes and performs progressive rock and light rock ballads on piano, keyboards and guitar. I sometimes bring in my wife, friends and former bandmembers to assist with my performances, but with busy schedules amongst us, more often than not these are usually solo performances enhanced with MIDI back-up tracks, which provide a beautiful contrast of a live vocal and guitar or piano over a pre-recorded background.

Story behind the song

In writing this song I wanted to capture the simple desire for freedom that we all have, starting with my own viewpoint, then a love relationship, and then expanding to include others.

Lyrics

EVERYONE FREE							December 1993 - Dallas TX

Whenever I look up and see a twinkling star
I still wonder  I wonder where you are
Way down below the Milky Way
I'm still traveling on my merry way - 
	My merry way - through life so strange - seeking shelter - needing change
	On and on - I cannot wait - to reach those dreams - it's not too late

I remember a child who wandered through here long ago
Asking all the questions - somehow he had to know
And I am that same boy  - wants to know - what would it take?
To recover all the kites we lost - to undo our mistakes - 
	Our mistakes - creep in the dark
	Beyond the fire that warms our hearts
	Oh for a way - to heal what's past
	To make it home - Go free at last
		And I still want to be Free - All that I can Be!

Whenever you are listening - that's when I know - I'm not alone
Whatever you are missing - I understand - I too, have held my own
I know it's true you said if only you knew a way
You'd make things better - we would sail on to a brighter day
	There is a way - the map's been drawn
	We'll leave today - Won't take us long
	Mystery unraveled - the truth we'll see
	The Bridge is traveled - We can go free
		And I want you to be Free - All that you can Be!

	-One man willing to forge ahead - the truth we need to know
	-Till we recover our ability - for our love to flow
It isn't always easy - you know that some have made it rough
It takes a lot of courage to reach up - high enough
	High enough - to reach the skies
	Hope for the future - where the Spirit flies
	I am Spirit - My dreams live on
	I thirst for Freedom - I sing my songwriter	
	This knowledge gained - restored my youth
	It healed the pain - I know the truth
		I know the truth has set me Free - Set this Spirit Free!
		And I want everyone Free - All that we can Be!

Everyone Free - 1993 - Scott Gordon
