My first recording using an interface rather than just a usb mic- the vocal editing was much easier this time so I hope it shows!

Its Better That Way
( Robert Cordrey, Aug.2016)
You arrive looking back
to that far bright star
big-eyed with wonder
your father tells you where you are
then you`re swept down a river
your mother`s prayers can`t make straight
through a land of grace and danger
the hidden angels of your fate
and its strange not knowing
this hanging by a thread
of dreams and faith and longing
from the precipice of breath
could lead you to say
its better that way
will you live looking forward
to that far bright star
send your message in a bottle
I`ll find where you are
I would write your story to the future
a chain of words no harm could break
but I`ll let you go on that river
with a note to stay awake
and its strange not knowing
this hanging by a thread
of dreams and faith and longing
from the precipice of breath
could lead you to say
its better that way
you arrive looking back
to that far bright star
