    CD: When I get off the Moon

    Story Behind the Song
    The basic lyrical idea came to me while driving home from work one day.
    I wrote the first verse and chorus down and didn't go any further with
    it for at least a year. The idea kept coming back to me and one day
    I sat down with my guitar, came up with the chords and melody, and
    finished the song. Right away, I knew it would be the lead off song
    on the CD we were working on.

    Lyrics
    up the street, down the block
    every day around the clock
    all the people living there
    living out their lives in pairs
    I see the loving all around me
    sometimes the lack of it can drown me

    maybe I’m tryin’ way too hard
    love don’t play in my backyard

    I’ve been close once or twice
    feelin’ good, feelin’ nice
    suddenly, something wrong
    something changes and love is gone
    I keep on askin’ love to take me
    I can’t believe it would forsake me

    maybe I’m tryin’ way too hard
    love don’t play in my backyard

    late last night, outside my window
    I thought I heard a sound
    when I looked out
    there’s nothin’ out there
    no love to be found

    maybe I’m tryin’ way too hard
    love don’t play in my backyard
