    CD: In process-   Label: Tear Catcher Music
    Credits: Renae Harrington-Lyrics, Melody- Reggie Hudson- Guitar arrangement

    Story Behind the Song
    For anyone who experienced the heartache
    of family dysfunction, and their parents divorcing-you will witness the pain for here it is reflected but also.... the fact that sweet release is found-within the strains of the song-such is the power of music...
    When I was a child, and things became
    unbearable-I would flee to the woodland area behind our little 10x50 trailer, and take solace from the stillness of the forest-
    I wrote this song when as an adult, I began trying to come to terms with all that had happened, and the song has brought closure of sorts-"Trails of Wood & Vine" took two years to complete--My friend, Reggie Hudson- heard the song-he said he really could relate to it-and so he came back two days later with an excellent sort of James Taylorish acoustic arrangement done, and I felt right away it suited the flavour of what I was trying to portray-
    This version was recorded on my mini-disk at home, and a new studio version is waiting to be mastered and will be downloaded soon-recorded and arranged by Drew & Chris LeGros. I am very pleased that the new version captures the feel of the forest-and my love for nature, and all it holds.

    Lyrics
    My feet would find
    The trails of wood & vine
    The coolness & the scent
    Would ease my mind

    My secret place
    A haven of oak & pine
    Here no angry voices fell
    Peace was mine

    For it seemed
    As though the branches
    Were reaching just for me
    The leaves & I were shadow dancers
    And there was time
    For childhood dreams

    The sun's embrace
    I now wear upon my face
    Though the anger has been spent
    Each scar remains

    That old memory stone
    Buried so deep
    Within my soul
    Like the roots
    Of tangled vines
    Though I am grown

    It still seems
    As though the branches
    Are reaching just for me
    The leaves and I are shadow dancers
    And there's still time
    For childish dreams

    I go back
    I go back
    I go back

    To walk the trails of Wood & Vine
