We will all die one day. As a song writer it feels strange to think that my voice and playing will continue on in some manner. However, I expect me to fade away after some time post-mortem. I write my music, record it and then I move on to the next composition but when I stop......all will fade away.
Despite all that 'Floating' is probably one of my most upbeat songs. I look to the sun and when I do it turns my way. That is a positive attitude.
lyrics
I look to the sun
And when I do it turns my way
But I’m still on the run
And when I stop all will fade away

And when I awake
I realize the sky’s not gone
I look to the sun
And when I do it turns my way
But I’m still on the run
And when I stop all will fade away
And when I stop all will fade away
And when I stop all will fade away
And when I stop all will fade away
And when I stop……………
