Light Comes Through When I'm Channeling You. My heart breathes you like the Sweetest Perfume Oh...You come through. Channeling You Oh...You come through Channeling the Warm-Hearted You Your eyes, when they look at mine. Are windows to the divine. Your heart, how it touches mine. The feeling of warmth, a warmth sublime. Oh...You come through. Channeling You Oh...You come through Channeling the Warm-Hearted You

Oh, the yearning for the fall To let go and be caught... Oh, the yearning for the Fall to let go....and be caught. Oh, the yearning to be swept up by the breeze and carried. Oh, the yearning to be swept up....by the breeze and carried..... to the center of Earth's heart, to the center of Earth's heart. Oh, the treasures of the fall, I pick them up one and all. I bring them to your altar. I bring them all. I bring them all to you. I bring them all to you. I bring them all......

Oh Love 03:28
Oh Love, my bones, my blood are made of you. Oh love, thank you for your patches, your stitches and your glue. Oh Love, isn't it the very, very truth? That you work with the sword, the staff and the scissors too? Inside me, you run free. Inside me, you are free. Oh Love, my hands your conduit, my lungs your parachute. Oh Love, my heart is a compass and it's arrow points to YOU. Oh Love. Oh Love. Oh Love. Oh. Love. Inside me, you run free. Inside me, you are free. Oh Love. Oh Love......

So the Seasons change, and the lens we see through every day is forever changing. If you just base your trust on the monkey mind stuff that is the draw of the ego’s claw and the flaw of a broken bourgeois . All these beliefs that keep you separate in your anxious fit Are you really seeing or are you just digging your paws into a life of illusion that never stops? Oh this cracked canopy is shattering To a million pieces so open your hands to the sky I love what you could be If you set yourself free And the night unfolds and the light has told you of trusting the right timing, if you just waste your time in the restlessness that is the cause of a stagnate pause and the jaws of ruthless law. All these beliefs that keep you awake in your restless state Are you really sleeping or are you just taking a pause from the claws of a life that never stops? Oh this cracked canopy is shattering To a million pieces so open your hands to the sky I love what you could be If you set yourself free So open your hands to the sky, All you’ve got is your heart and a handful of time So be wise….so wise

How many lives will it take, how many lives will it take? Til we are fully awake? How many lives? How many times will it take, how many times will it take? 'Til we realize we can alchemize our pain with healing grace? Healing grace, Oh grace. How many lives? Won’t you stop the fighting, stop the doubting and know you are beautiful In the eyes of grace. In the arms of grace. You are beautiful. Yes you are. Yes, you are. How many lives?

Wild Ride 03:59
As the day turns over Rolls onto it's back and rests on my shoulder I look up to the sky And realize I’m still in love with this wild ride. So alive. and I look down at my feet on the ground And I hear the sounds Of this wild life. So alive As the leaves turn over From season to season life bends and sculpts us I look up to the sky And realize I’m still in love with this wild ride. So alive. and I look down at my feet on the ground And I hear the sounds Of this wild life. So alive Oh at first a crawl, then a walk and a run. A new life has begun. At first a cry then eyes open wide and find there’s a safety net, a source the safety net, the source is ALIVE SO.... I look up to the sky And realize I’m still in love with this wild ride. So alive. and I look down at my feet on the ground And I hear the sounds Of this wild life. This WILD LIFE! So alive

Mariposa 03:34
La Mariposa Las alas de agua La vida es transformativa La Mariposa Tu crisalida Yin y yang es tu vida. Oh what is this life That Closes so softly only to fly? Oh this precious life That Closes so softly then expands with all her might La Mariposa Las alas de agua La vida es transformativa La Mariposa Tu crisalida Yin y yang es tu vida. And isn’t is so, the way the wind blows Shows us which direction to go? And isn’t it so, the way the sun grows We harvest all the fruit that we’ve sown? And isn’t it so the way the moon glows We are shown our luminous knowing? Isn’t it so? Oh what is this life? That Closes so softly only to fly?

Footprints 02:20
The snow is melting inside. Raindrops, they fall from your eyes. I'll stay with you, beside you my dear friend. I'll carry you. This love knows no end. The blossom will grow again soon. Sunrise. Sunset. And then bloom. I'll stay with you, beside you my dear friend. I'll carry you. This love knows no end. I'll stay with you, beside you my dear friend. I'll carry you. This love knows no end. Twilight. Nectar and the Moon. The dawn stretches. A new day for you. Twilight. Nectar and the Moon. The dawn arises. The sun blossoms for you. Twilight. Nectar and the Moon. The cycle repeats and soon dear flower, you have bloomed.

The sky is full of pockets of light, filling up our souls with sight. We are humans living divine lives, filling up our souls tonight. We are warriors, warriors, carrying our torches of courage compassion and light. Ride the wave. Surf the Life. With grace and beauty With Love and light. Life is full of pockets of surrendering, laying down our pain to see the light. We are humans stumbling through this terrain of life, picking up ourselves every time. We are lovers, lovers carrying our torches of forgiveness, compassion and light. Ride the wave. Surf the Life. With grace and beauty With Love and light. BLESS THIS LIGHT.

about

The trajectory of the album Channeling You is intended to take the listener on a journey through the yearning of connection set to a soundscape of Magical Realism through to the human disarray that happens on the path to this connection. The album's second half explores a rebirth or recalibrating, and a celebration of the the waxing and waning of life; which is held only more precious by the bonds of love and loyalty that tie us all together in our humanity.
