Liner Notes

No such thing as a bad song in 3/4 time. Always been my philosophy. (So far anyway...) I hope you enjoy this one.

A WELL WORN PATH

In the quiet of the morning,
with the world so still and vast,
I’m walking down the memory lane,
thinking of the past.
Every step is a story,
every turn a different phase,
On this very well-worn path,
I see the echoes of my days.

CHORUS:
With every scar and with every laugh,
I’m writing all the words of my own epitaph.
On this journey of change and growth, I craft,
My life’s story on A WELL WORN PATH.

I’ve found love like fire,
burning bright then turning cold,
I’ve held onto fleeting shadows,
turning silver dreams to gold.
Lessons learned in the heartbeat
of the crowded, lonely streets,
On the well-worn path,
where yesterday and tomorrow meet.

CHORUS:
With every scar and with every laugh,
I’m writing all the words of my own epitaph.
On this journey of change and growth, I craft,
My life’s story on A WELL WORN PATH.

And every step that I take
is a note in a song,
In the melody of the well-worn path,
I know that I belong.
With the pain and the joy,
the tears and the smile,
Every mile I’ve walked,
every last mile.

So here I am,
with open heart and open path,
Writing the future,
with lessons from the past.
On this well-worn path,
my journey's not the last,
It's a story only mine,
and it's had an all-star cast.

CHORUS:
With every scar and with every laugh,
I’m writing all the words of my own epitaph.
On this journey of change and growth, I craft,
My life’s story on A WELL WORN PATH.
