Ragged Friend

I'm singing this song both to a friend, who is struggling with the weight of the world; and to myself.

I need the reminder, just as much as my friend might, that there is indescribable beauty and joy in this world....when I look for it.

Jack Gilbert says it achingly in A Brief For The Defence - ‘We must admit there will be music despite everything’

Come To Me

I want to venture to take people as they are, right now.

I think perhaps accepting you is a shorter route to accepting myself.

Please keep being you and i’ll keep being me.

Sometimes words just get in the way of understanding each other.

This song wonders who we are beyond language?

Can we be, without words or thoughts?
