Thank you! I'm glad I'm on the computer so no one can see me blush! I just wish you could hear my music. Then, I would feel much better about the compliments!

Okay, I am posting another song (lyrics) off my first CD:
EVERY HEARTBEAT I can't help the way I'm feeling Over and over again. I will never stop believing, in you. There are promises unspoken Night after night in your arms. The circle never will be broken, it's true. Satisfied as children feel, When their day is done, With each setting sun. (Like)The universe before the light... I am part of you And every heartbeat that you feel is mine. It's a matter of intention. You are the one that I want. If I ever fail to mention, it's true. I have always been the dreamer. You are the one that I dream. I am also the believer, in you. Satisfied as children feel When their day is done, With each setting sun. (Like)The Universe before the light, I am part of you And every heartbeat tha you feel is mine... Gotta hear it with the music! Award winner!!! Thanks, Sean |
Why aren't "you" in the R & R Hall Of Fame???!!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/eek.gif Dang good writing! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Hello, everyone! While I have some time before the concert Sunday, I thought I would post another set of lyrics to one of my songs. I have receieved a means of posting songs here from John Fowles, and when I have time to fidure them out, the lyrics will have to suffice...
CRAZY LOVE She wakes up Sunday morning, ten a.m., And rubs the sleep out of her eyes. She takes the face off that she wore last night, a plain girl in disguise. She drinks her morning coffee on the porch And feels the night-time ease away. So what if love is still a one-night stand? She's better off this way. Crazy Love, Crazy Love, Crazy love, She's better off this way. She puts the face on that she wore last night A masquerade for all but her. Another night, another strangers's love, It's all that she deserves... Crazy Love, Crazy Love, Crazy love, She's better off this way... Crazy Love, Crazy Love, Crazy love, There's nothing more to say... I'll get the music on soon. Sean |
Hey, all you writers! Don't give up now! Gord may be watching, and besides, you all are great!!!

I am a musician currently writing an album..
but lately i've been getting into the prog-metal-rock thing a la Anathema, Stratovarius, and Sonata Arctica. I try to work in ELO, Moody Blues and even Gordon Lightfoot tings, but it all depends on my mood. i'll have a website up soon, but here is what i have so far. http://www.perfectdisorder.net/~porter |
Sean,In the words of E-Ore from Winnie The Pooh,"Thanks for noticin' me." http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif I'd vote for ya too! As for leaving more lyrics,I'll think about it. Still skittish but,maybe. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif

I dug back four pages in The Small Talk to see what was hiding.
This one shouldn't be hiding. Song lyrics, poems, prose - I've embraced what I've read. More please? Music has been my living since first getting bit by Ray Charles, Elvis, Choin, Mozart, Roy Acuff, Bird, Brubeck, and Leadbelly. With their spark, I've raised three boys to manhood and continue as a musician. It is the only gift in which I really know how to operate. Let this thread revive. Let it prosper. The Rez |
I agree -- never saw this one before. I'm not a musician either, but, I would very much welcome hearing anyone's music or other art form. Welcome!
|
Wow, Patti, that's great! Now, put it to music! You go, girl!
|
Patti, that so sad and so lovely! Thanks for sharing.
|
Thanks! I don't know how to put music to words. Sometimes I think of some tunes, but I don't play an instrument. (I don't want to learn either). I'm no good at thinking of titles either.

Come to the Window
Come to the window, I am waiting Here below in winter’s chill Give to me your sweet attention Come to the window now Come to the window, I am standing Here in all anticipation Of your genteel, gentle presence Come to the window now All my fellow carolers Have gone along to other dwellings Singing Christmas fa-la-la-ings I alone remain, pray thee Come to the window, I am calling You to be my everloving Ere you come full into flower Come to the window now All my fellow carolers Have gone along to other dwellings Singing Christmas fa-la-la-ings I alone remain, pray thee Come to the window, I am singing Songs of winter wonderlanding All for you my one, my only Come to the window now Come to the window now The Rez PS: It's done in a sort of perky Madrigal style. I chose to have nothing rhyme. Perhaps lets keep doing this. To me it is magic. ------------------------------------------------- . . . and that's a secret only Margaret knows |
Here in the Morning Hour
Here in the Morning Hour I seek Thee Calling on Thy gentle presence Singing hymns of grateful praises Here in the Morning Hour Here in the Morning Hour I greet Thee Grant to me Thy tender mercies Thou alone hast brought me safely Here to the Morning Hour All is quiet, all is stillness Ere the new born day is dawning Save the solitary songbird Praising Thee in her own fashion Here in the Morning Hour I meet Thee So receive Thy lovingkindness Offering Thee my heart’s thanksgiving Here in the Morning Hour All is quiet, all is stillness Ere the new born day is dawning Holy, holy - Hallelujah Worship Thee Lord God Almighty Here in the Morning Hour I seek Thee Calling on Thy gentle presence Grace amazing, love abounding Here in the Morning Hour Here in the Morning Hour The Rez PS: Had so much fun w/ the Madrigal interplay, I used the same melody for this Greeting. . . . Psalm 5 |

Here are lyrics to a song co-written with Borderstone.
Here's a link the music http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/walterfarmermusic.htm When Lightfoot Sings (© 2003 Walter Farmer, Walter LaMont ) Verse He came down from Canada that's no surprise With a message about livin' a word to the wise A voice as fresh as new clover in Spring Folks stop and listen whenever he sings Chorus When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Bringin' us up from the lowest of lows Put a smile on your face and a tap in your toe With Folk songs Blues songs or ol' Rock and Roll When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Verse There's songs about livin' songs about love Songs that give praise the good lord above Ballads of heroes and the reasons we fight Songs of the woodlands and big city life Chorus When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Bringin' us up from the lowest of lows Put a smile on your face and a tap in your toe With Folk songs Blues songs or ol' Rock and Roll When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Verse If ever you feel You've been dealt a wrong blow The burdens of livin' have brought you down low In one of his songs can always be found Lessons about livin' that turn things around Chorus When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Bringin' us up from the lowest of lows Put a smile on your face and a tap in your toe With Folk songs Blues songs or ol' Rock and Roll When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Verse If ever you find yourself at Massey Hall A familiar sound shakin' the walls A sound so smooth that it welcomes you in Lightfoot and crew are at it again Chorus When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul Bringin' us up from the lowest of lows Put a smile on your face and a tap in your toe With Folk songs Blues songs or ol' Rock and Roll When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul When Lightfoot sings he sings from the soul He sings to our the souls Here are links to my other "Lightfoot" Sounding Songs" http://www.safossils.com/waltsongs/sunset.html http://www.safossils.com/waltsongs/witoy.html |
Very Cool, Walt! I do remember something about this from awhile ago. I really like it, you have done a great job. Do I remember correctly that you play all the instruments too?
[ May 09, 2005, 18:20: Message edited by: brink ] |
Yeah, I play all of the instruments. It's just a keyboard and 12-string guitar actually. I have a small studio set up in a closet....It's amazing what you can do now-a-days with computers and music. Thank you for the very kind words.
Walt |

I wish I could be there, but it's a long way from Tucson. I was hoping to catch one of his California dates, but I just couldn't work it in. I'm still enjoying the Harmony CD a lot, it would be nice to hear more of it performed live.
Best, Walt |
