Breath On Me
Please listen to my newest song addition for my "Take One Project". These recordings are works-in-progress (incomplete, raw, organic) for my next full album. I'll choose 12 songs from this "Take One Project" and properly record them for my upcoming album.
I'm collaborating with Google Plus Artists and featuring their photos and artwork as the thumbnail picture for my songs. Each song in the "Take One Project" will feature different artwork from photographers and artists across the globe!
The seventh artist is Willi Bambach. Bambach is a “sui generis” artist who works with many mediums. He says, "Inside the shapes we catch a glimpse of hints of intangible worlds, reachable only by abandoning all the usual patterns of thinking." Please click here to view Bambach's portfolio.
I also collaborated musically with a brilliant guitarist +Mike Majesty. Mike and his band is also responsible for all additional instruments played on this track, aside from my vocals and acoustic guitar.
She moves me on the water
She takes me cross the sea
Like the thunder in the heavens
She brings me to my knees
She hides me in the shadow
She bleeds in me her pain
With the tears that fall from her eyes
I bathe in her new rain
Chorus 1
Breathe on me your fire
Breathe on me your light
And these walls that kiss the heavens
Will keep us safe tonight
Chorus 2
In this tomb of isolation
No tears to wash me clean
Cause the higher this wall rises
The less I feel the pain
She calms me with a whisper
She moves me with her eyes
Like the midnight sweat from a broken dream
She comes from deep inside
She traps me in the mountains
She keeps me far from love
This journey that was meant for me
Was stolen from above
Bridge
And I will honor your love
Cause our walls are the same
Our eyes they search for sunlight
As we look out past the pain - the pain

'Breath On Me'
This song is about the "walls" we build around ourselves to shelter our pains.
She moves me on the water
She takes me cross the sea
Like the thunder in the heavens
She brings me to my knees
She hides me in the shadow
She bleeds in me her pain
With the tears that fall from her eyes
I bathe in her new rain

Breathe on me your light
And these walls that kiss the heavens

'Carry Me Tonight'
She was my muse - Left me dazed and confused
Like the day that we first met
She held my song - She always sang along
But the tune was just too strong
Distant as the sun - Yet she burned in my bones
Within my dreams she made a home
She never looked in to my eyes - If she did, she’d know why
I was crazy on this love
Chorus
Carry me tonight - Be the air - Be the light
Carry me tonight - Sing of love - Sing of life
-Carry me tonight - Stop the world - Dry your eyes-
Engraved in my soul - This muse left me whole
A troubadour’s delight
With time on her side - She chose to abide
To the moral law of life - blinded
She longs from afar - Waiting for her bard
As she baths in every verse
Naked as this song - She lingers like a poem
I feel her in my bones
Bridge
Bone of my bone - Flesh of my flesh
The story’s seldom told
Like the day that we first met
She held my song - She always sang along
But the tune was just too strong
Distant as the sun - Yet she burned in my bones
Within my dreams she made a home
She never looked in to my eyes - If she did, she’d know why
I was crazy on this love
Chorus
Carry me tonight - Be the air - Be the light
Carry me tonight - Sing of love - Sing of life
-Carry me tonight - Stop the world - Dry your eyes-
Engraved in my soul - This muse left me whole
A troubadour’s delight
With time on her side - She chose to abide
To the moral law of life - blinded
She longs from afar - Waiting for her bard
As she baths in every verse
Naked as this song - She lingers like a poem
I feel her in my bones
Bridge
Bone of my bone - Flesh of my flesh
The story’s seldom told
Soul touches soul - Spirit touches life
This muse will arise
