    Story Behind the Song
    Written in Nashville, 1997. In those days, a crew of us gathered, usually at Tim's to jam after the night shift at the Fifth Quarter Steakhouse. We made several attempts at collaborating, with not much success. I was used to writing alone. Tim and I sat down to try to come up with something kinda mountain/folkie. I started with the chords. Then one night...after being inspired, wrote the verses around the idea for the chorus I had come up with. Tim was inspirational on the final chorus. Erik came up with the cool little intro to the intro. I was extremely sick when I recorded this. I think the vox came out pretty damn pretty for barely being able to speak. So it took a few takes. A bandmate at the time, Matt Newbold let me use his Sony Minidisc 4 Track to lay down the tracks-I used 2 for the acoustics and 2 for the vox. Thanks to Duane "Full Force" Gayle for the mix.

    Lyrics
    I won't pretend that I possess
    All the answers that you seek.
    Just one thing I will suggest,
    While you slumber as I sleep;

    Chorus:
    My love's as big as an ocean;
    Feeding dreams that won't let me sleep.
    And I'll be here if you get the notion
    That maybe my heart you'd like to keep;
    Maybe my heart you will keep

    Just when you think you've lost your way
    Is when a messenger takes flight.
    And by the time that you awake;
    See the coming of the light.

    And if in your dreams your hopes were slain,
    May this one memory remain.
    Then my dreams for you came true,
    And the rest is up to you...

    Chorus

    ...Yes I'll be here should you take the notion that maybe my heart you'd like to keep...Maybe my heart you will keep.
