Just a middle aged singer/songwriter sharing the work.
Hobbyist singer/songwriter/guitarist who's been quiet for 10 years. Decided to get the songs out there now. Had dreams of the big time, but know it isn't going to happen now and that's okay. I still love music, writing and recording and want to share my work with people.

Story behind the song
Written in 1992. The time does fly. I sometimes miss the days when the internet wasn't really a thing.
Lyrics
Another night of traveling Down the highways of my soul Trying to figure out the direction I should go Over and over they tell you it's gone The dream that you thought would forever live on Northern wind drives a chill right down my spine In the silence waiting for a sign Feeling empty in this darkness That's gotta hold on me so strong Time to break the chains that hold me back And sing out this new song Through this life of mountains and valleys There's only so much you can do To convince yourself this race is not worth running To convince yourself you've done all you can do I've seen it in the eyes of little children And I've seen it on the face in the mirror looking back at me Out of all the things that we could offer one another Love is the greatest thing Love is the greatest thing Love is the greatest thing There's times I wonder if there's any point in going on Have the best years of this life have simply come and gone Like a tidal wave of uncertainty falling down on me I wonder where the road ahead is going to lead...lead me now... Through this life of mountains and valleys There's only so much you can do To convince yourself this race is not worth running To convince yourself you've done all you can do I've seen it in the eyes of little children And I've seen it on the face in the mirror looking back at me Out of all the things that we could offer one another Love is the greatest thing Love is the greatest thing Love is the greatest thing **************************************** August 1992, London, Ontario, Canada
