I've been having some big problems with blogger.com lately. Here's a couple of posts I made a while ago, but haven't been able to get published. I still don't know if I'll be able to make this work.

Jacob woke me up tonight, so after I got him back to sleep, I put a bit more bass line onto Today/Yesterday. The feel of the song is shaping up nicely.

Here's the lyrics, as they currently stand. I'm not completely satisfied with them. I think I'll let the LDSrefinersfire yahoogroup tackle them before I record any vocal lines.



Today/yesterday
By mark Hansen

It seems today was one of those days again
The sun was out, or maybe skies were gray
I couldn’t tell, my eyes were down ahead of me
A wind blew through me and made me hide my face
These footprints in the snow
Were made some time ago
When I had walked this way
So here I am stepping through the snow again
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday


Yesterday when I came by this way
I swore I’d never take these steps again
The way is hard with no direction
The cold and the pain my only friend
But now this path I know
Is much easier to go
This loop without an end
So here I am walking all alone again
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday

I can’t see the sun
I can’t see the one
I can’t find the path away from here
So step by step
And lap by lap
I can’t see the way to breaking clear
(and feeling like I haven’t got a prayer)

So here I am stepping through the snow again
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday
Can’t seem to tell today from yesterday

Last night the boyz got together again for a jam/practice. It was pretty fun, very low-key. I presented "Dancing Their Lives Away". I'd written that one years ago, but never did anything with it. I didn't really have any firm arrangement ideas for it. So, it was fun to just play them the bass riff and hear what they added.

I've also been working out a new one, kind of a depressing, moody song. I'll post the lyrics when I get home.
