This song started out as a Instrumental. When I finished I sent the song to Robert and he felt the song was right for some lyrics.

He made some changes to the arrangement to make it more suitable for his lyrics and the song became

The Altlas of Remote

These are Roberts lyrics

The Atlas Of Remote

kite on a string
a coiled up spring
in a kid building worlds
on the floor

after dark reading maps
in a wide awake hat
naming places
never seen before

you`re a treetop spy
the tribe ostracized
never could breathe
in a crowd

set your compass on course
far from applause
amaze the day
that heard your vow

out of your country out of yourself
eyes of stars at the bottom of your well

over this whole blue wilderness
sailing ships hidden below
kindness unseen under the waterline
courage no one knows
wonder shivers you feel
at the Equator of Real
reaching the Island of Voices
on your Atlas of Remote

sometimes you play the clown
marionette falling down
in the grown up
puppet show

cut the kite from the string
uncoil your spring
amaze the day
before its flown

always ever how you go on
windhover eye imagination

over this whole blue wilderness
sailing ships hidden below
kindness unseen under the waterline
courage no one knows
wonder shivers you feel
at the Equator of Real
reaching the Island of Voices
on your Atlas of Remote
