about

I wrote this for Doug. Not sure exactly why.

lyrics

Is this the one last alley you have to stumble down,
One dead end where there's no room to turn around,
Your last one hundred yards until your strength fails and you drop
So hard and low the only place for you to look is up?

Are you climbing up a mountain path the only leads nowhere,
Your feet chained to the rocky path, blind with icy glare?
Reach out for everlasting arms, seek eyes that search and care.
Jump out into eternity and find your reasons there.

I bundled up the problems of the world and universe,
Slung them on my back along with man's inherent curse.
I ached and groaned beneath my load until I came to know
Someone had done it all for me two thousand years ago.

In my teens and twenties I wanted to be a rich and famous singer-songwriter. In my 30s I wanted to be a rich and famous bestselling novelist. In my late 30's I discovered that what I really am is a storyteller, and that's how I've been making my way in the world for the past many years.
