lyrics

Little light, shining bright
Face is like the warming of the sun
At the height of sanity, before the age of vanity
When the worries of life
Couldn’t keep you on the run
Long before life became so complicated
Long before all your friends just upped and went astray
Little light, shining bright
I’ve been watching every step of your way

Night turns to day, alone in this cafe
Watching all the people walking by
In the need to take time out
Re-align what your life is all about
Keep your ears open to that inner cry
You don’t really want to make yourself a burden
So you settle for less than what you really need
Looking for a sign of danger, you become a stranger
To protect the wound that bleeds

Somewhere on the way, gonna have to realise
( first sight, morning light )
You could be the one to pay
When people see right through that thin disguise
But if no-one really knows the things that move your heart
How can they know what you feel
Comes a time when you get tired of playing the part
So here’s something real, here’s something real

Summer days, like a breeze coming off the bay
Isn’t it true that the simple things are wise
How you love those familiar faces
Keep you going through your paces
Growing up before your very eyes
Pretty soon the old ways get forgotten
What stays true; faith, hope and love
Everywhere we’re walking, history keeps talking
Even through the stars above
Even through the stars above

Somewhere on the way, gonna have to realise
( first sight, morning light )
You could be the one to pay
When people see right through that thin disguise
But if no-one really knows the things that move your heart
How can they know what you feel
Comes a time when you get tired of playing the part
So here’s something real, here’s something real

Geoff Kerr Melbourne, Australia

I gained a love for song/writing and recording from the age of 12. My brother and I would spend hours writing and recording our songs on whatever we had available. Growing up I was in various bands playing either guitar or drums while singing. I got hooked on multi-track recording after buying a 4-track reel-to-reel, mixer and other equipment in my 20's. I have continued this journey ever-since :) ... more
