Becoming a dad again at a riper age has been the inspiration for a few songs lately.
I loved the piano accomp. but found I couldn`t record a decent vocal without hearing a strummed guitar which I then deleted- my comfort zone is being stretched by having real musicians playing my songs!

Come Home To Me

V1

our chldren are the branches
of tomorrow`s shade
when we`ll look up into the leaves
their laughter has made
all my hopes are now of this
for you are bound away
that there`s a place in your heart
where we`ll always play

C1

close your eyes
beneath the arms of our tree
come home come home to me

V2

if by rippling water
in a silent place
or on cold hard streets
without kindness or grace
you should question how love
deceived you to soar
just to fall broken winged
alone on that shore

C2

close your eyes
there`s a road over that sea
come home come home to me

Br

and if your life climbs so far from mine
our sandcastles and silly games
be you prince or beggar I`m your shield in any weather
and I hold you still the same
little boy I long to see
come home come home to me

rpt V1/C1
