about

Originally released as an instrumental track many years ago, I decided to dust it off and add vocals and extra instrumentation to it like I originally intended to...
The vocals were actually recorded in 2018, and it is only now that that the original intention has been realised.... Damned Dark Night!
Special thanks to Angelica for lending me her voice!

With original Track Art by the talented Kani!

lyrics

New beginnings all around me...
Lost my way, but you found me.
You found me here,
Trapped under moss and fallen ferns....
Just waiting...
Waiting to learn.

Light from the sky can’t reach me here...
There is nothing they can teach me here.
But then...
Sound broke through the still of night.
And I could...
Taste your ray of light!

Understanding all around me...
Lost my mind... Lost my mind, but you found me!
You found me here...
Under the moss and ferns.
Just waiting...
Waiting to learn.

Waiting to learn.
All my lessons...
Waiting to learn.
You found me here...
Waiting to learn.
You found me here...
Waiting to learn.

Dug myself a hole.
Couldn’t get down deeper.
Dug it for myself.
Looks like she’s a keeper.
Dig yourself a hole.
Couldn’t get down deeper.
Dig it for yourself.
Got ourselves a sleeper.

Under lock and key...
Under mist and ferns...
...I’m waiting for my turn.
I’m waiting.
Waiting to learn...
Waiting to learn...
I’m waiting.
Waiting to learn...
My lesson.
