Hi All, Here's a simple little folk tune called Lost & Found. I hear her voice in the deep twilight You dream your dream live your life Try to find the sound I get lost I get found My baby’s wild she lives on the ledge She sits along the river’s edge This mountain town She gets lost she gets found Songbird living outside my door He sings loud when it starts to pour Song goes round He gets lost he gets found I used to be your Superman Catch my breath take my hand Lose time gain ground I get lost I get found BIAB Tracks: 2474: Bass, Acoustic, Held Ev 085 2503: Piano, Acoustic, HeldChords 085 2541: Pedal Steel, Background Ev 110 2914: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Folky16thBrent Ev16 085 3230: Guitar, Electric, Background, Darin 090 Loop: Rise_128_congas_d_minor ev16.wav Loop: Chillout/Chillout - dimensions_145choir_a_minor.wav RealDrums: PopPromiseEv16^1-a: Snare on 4, HiHat, b: Snare As always - thanks for listening!

Lovely song, Bob, I like the laid back vibe. Always enjoy your lyrics and vocal!
Track sounds great, very effective waiting for the second verse to bring in the drums.
Nicely done!

Man, you are so good at this, Bob. You write such great lyrics that it's often easy to miss how cool the music is. There is actually so much going on, and you mix it all so well with just the right piece coming in at just the right time. I am a huge fan!

Oh wow. So beautiful, so poetic, so atmospheric. A (somewhat veiled) love song, am I right? Beautiful in every way, in any case. Bravo.

Hey Bob, it really is a soothing melody and thought-provoking lyrics. One suggestion based on the rule of two: bring the instrumental interlude in after the 2nd verse. Overall, I really liked it, though!

Hi Bob.
I'm still trying to work out the meaning but I do like the ambiguity.
I'm thinking you could change the melody slightly in the last verse to give the listener a surprise.
Good one.
Vic

Bob.
Everything about this is Excellent.
Lyric, vocal, Band choices, Mix.
Because of how GOOD they sound, I often look back to see what RTs you are using. In this case...the acoustic and the drums...
SO good.

I like it! You do these so well, they feel effortless. As Vic says, it's sort of hard to make out the POV with the shifting pronouns, but like him, I can also live with the ambiguity.

This song is a winner Bob.
Everything about this one is, as usual, top notch.
A pro sounding production for sure.
Great lyrics, vocal, backing band, and mix.
This song is something John Prine would write and sing so outstanding job Bob.
The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal".
Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.

Gentle singer-songwriter tune. Nice puzzling poetry - I like the superman reference. Good band, I like the use of the loops. Emotional singing, especially in the songbird verse.
