Instrumental with distant choral chants

lyrics

Long Road

As I watched the miles go by,
some made me laugh some made me cry.
And now before I die
I'll send a message off to you.

You've been there for most of it.
You gave your everything to it.
Not just for me but for everyone.
It's what you always do.

So many people never land.
They only want a helping hand.
They won't reciprocate the love
that oozes out of you.

The journey's long, it's always been.
The many things these eyes have seen.
Who knew that most would be obscene?
But you're one of the chosen few.

I'll put my message in a jar,
seal the lid and throw it far
into the sea and watch it drift.
A message just for you.

about

David Edwin Townson Manchester, UK

David Edwin Townson.
Guitar player / Vocalist, music composer and lyricist.
I cut my teeth playing the club circuits of Canada where I jammed with the likes of Loverboy, Jeff Healey, several members of one of Brian Adams early bands Sweeney Todd, the Ink Spots, Chilliwack and Ruth Pointer of the Pointer Sisters.
Great times indeed. Here are some of my latest tunes. Stay tuned for the next album.
