about

My now 12-year old daughter engages in music in many different ways. I wrote this tune on her fiddle, which I don't play but she does still now and again. It was different for both of us - me letting her hold up my singing with her playing. It's raw and emotive for me, much like contemplating my ancestors and her descendants all within the same song. Our porch functions like a family room for the warm seasons of the year; I hope this feels like you're here with us on a typical summer night.

When I was just a child, full of hope and dreams
of everywhere I'd go, and everything I'd see
My grandmother’s knee and stories that she’d saved,
of lives, that we’d lived, long ago and far away

In the face of my child, full of hope and dreams
of everywhere she'll go, and everything she'll see
I will keep treasures safe, and pass to her one day
twice the tales that were lived, long ago and far away

When I’ll wear, shades of gray, around my wrinkled face
a child of my child, held in my embrace
in her turn she will share, stories that she saved
When it is I, who once lived, long ago and far away
