Sometimes soft and melancholy, sometimes not..
I'm a a singer/songwriter originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I've tinkered with many instruments but pretty much stick to piano and guitar. I've been a member here at Soundclick for about 20 years now, I have met some incredible people from all over the world. I have collaborated with a lot of different musicians in my time here, but most notably I have been working quite closely with Juri Rosenfeld aka Grand Jury. Juri is an utterly amazing composer, musician, arranger, producer from Finland. And I am thrilled to be working with him. Very often the lyricist for these songs is Dawn Sinclair an extremely talented and prolific writer from England. From time to time I have worked with other artists as well, most of whom I have met here on Soundclick. Another SC member, Tom Moore and I have worked closely together on many projects as well, including a 17 song Christmas CD. I absolutely love musical collaboration but have recently been trying to focus on completing some more of my own original compositions. Also check out the band Fractured Beauty, here on Soundclick another collaboration project featuring the talents of Bob Kingdon and others with a psychedelic vibe.

Story behind the song
Someone I cared about was leaving in more ways than one, ah, the pain of young love...so sad and sappy...
Lyrics
Can you spare a little time for me have you lost yourself can you no longer see how hard it is to endure all this pain no matter how I try things stay the same. You can laugh and you will I believe you can tell me the tales and I'll cry when you leave. It's hard to tell you something when I don't want you to know, hard to send you far away when I don't want you to go. And I don't want to fight I don't want to lose I don't want to send you away but I can't keep you here I can't change your mind I know now you'll never stay. When you look into my eyes you can't see tears that fall when you're lonely, all by yourself it's not my name you call. I wonder what happens next or do I really wanna know. Can't turn your world around, your eyes tell me so. And I don't want to fight I don't want to lose I don't want to send you away but I can't keep you here I can't change your mind I know now you'll never stay and I don't want to fight, I don't want to lose I can't bear to send you away and my only wish so deep in my soul baby is for you to stay.

Amy, I was just cruising around tonight and had an overwhelming urge to hear this lovely treasure. Great melody, vocals and the lyrics are quite universal. This song may be one of your first and perhaps you feel simple but perhaps that is the beauty of it. A mark of a very strong song it only needs the piano and vocals to carry the day. Great Job on this!
