A broad range of genres and production values - from studio work to raw live performances on acoustic instruments back in the days of killer tape hiss. (All were produced as song demos vs artist demos.) IF YOU'RE A LYRIC FAN, click on the "full" or "full song info" line and play the songs from there. That way you can read the lyrics at the bottom of the page as the song plays. I am guilty of all the words, music, arrangements, production, and male vocals. Fortunately, for both you AND me, friends handled the female vocals. (Thanks Leanne, Bodra, Dianne, & Roxanne!) See ya out there!

Lyrics
BLACK SPRUCE (It Will Never Let Me Go) Little light in this life of mine Little life left at all Little chance I can find my way back home Little hope if I fall The snow drifts, the wind howls The hard ice cracks beneath me The only world I've ever known It haunts me, it taunts me It does not seem to want me But it will never let me go Ever scared since they came at me Ever long, every night Ever blind, trying to drown my fear by drinking Ever wrong not to fight The snow drifts, the wind howls The hard ice cracks beneath me The only world I've ever known It haunts me, it taunts me It does not seem to want me But it will never let me go Me, I know, it's the way life is Something dies so we survive Me, I know, it's this memory that will kill me Let it go or I die The snow drifts, the wind howls The house fire burns beneath me The only world I'd ever known It haunts me, it taunts me It does not seem to want me But it will never let me go ©2009 Van Clayton Powel
