Winter Weather Lyric

Walking in the rain today, I recalled a lyric from a song that I wrote in the winter of 1980-81.

"The mornings are hell
After the dreams, you're just a reality
Don't wince at the finality
Don't be surprised
I've taken wavering steps for a long time."


On the surface, the song is about Vincent Van Gogh and his fatal struggle with mental illness. I included some of Vincent's own words taken from letters that he had written to his brother (e.g., "my steps are wavering").

Suddenly, I'm intrigued with the idea of recording this song. After waiting patiently for half a lifetime, it deserves to see the light of day. 2016 objectives list, here we come.
