Hi, all:
I remain somewhat inactive on the music front, but ray c sent me this mix some weeks back and it totally caught my ear. I gave it some heavy listening while on vacation recently in Portugal, and the choral refrain came as I sat in the vineyards of my hotel, on a misty day, looking out over the Duoro river. It all evolved from there.
Ray did most all the heavy lifting on the mix, though he did accommodate a couple of chord changes I suggested to support the melody I came up with . . . mainly to help resolve the chorus back into the verse. What’s left is a poppy rock tune about finding purity in love.
This is not yet final, so comments and feedback are, as always, welcome. Hope you enjoy!

Here's the song:WALKING ON WATER Here are the lyrics:Sea winds and raindrops in my face
Sound and vision yet reveal you in this place
Can I express so honestly
If you could ever let me be
Wrapped up in your mystery
And ever in your space
I’ll be walking on water
Every day
In your sweet light
Come what may
In your light ’til the
End of days
So now I have your sunlight on my skin
Penetrates and resonates on everything within
Every flaw that I possess
Will ever flee at your behest
And when your whisper tells me yes
The miracle begins
So let the rain keep falling from the sky
Let the wind blow endlessly, the seas and rivers rise
‘Cause all the storms and floods will be
Nothing more than scenery
As long as I can ever be
Here and by your side
