Hi, all:

I hope everyone is doing well heading into the Holiday Season. I’ve been a bit MIA from the board, and equally non-productive on the music making front . . . but am hoping to catch up on some listens before and during the holidays. Everything I’ve heard today, to no surprise, was just excellent. What a wonderful collection of talented folks we have making music here!

Here’s the only thing new I’ve penned in the last couple of months—nothing ground-breaking, but hopefully it gets me going in a better direction. Suggestions on the production are welcome as always! Hope you enjoy the listen.

My best to you all—

Deej

Here’s the song:

BRING IT BACK HOME

NOTE: I've decided to go with the revised version of the song and have removed the link to the original version, which included the BGV call backs in the second chorus. I agree with the comments below that the second version works better. Thanks all folks for pointing me in the right direction.

Here are the lyrics:

Snow in starlight
December moon
Voices singing Silent Night
Outside my lonely room
And I find myself remembering
A sweeter spring and everything that’s you
And I’m wishing more than anything
You’re wishing for me, too

Bring it back home
Your love to me
I’m so alone
You’re all I need
Bring it back home
Into my arms
And let the light of love
I’ve been dreaming of
Fill me up and
Heal my broken heart

And I watch the carolers amble
Down the drive and towards the hill
Past the Christmas candle
I keep burning on the window sill
And I hope it serves as a guiding light
To lead you back, keep me in sight, and still
Well, I know it’s not for anything
But I’m hoping that it will
