WHISPERS IN THE DUST
I KNOW, SOME OF THEM DON’T LEAVE
OCCASIONALLY STOP ON BY, TUG ON MY SLEEVE
AND WHISPER COUPLE THINGS INTO MY EAR
“HOW IS EVERYBODY, HAVING A GOOD YEAR?”
I TRY TO TUNE ‘EM IN WHEN THEY’RE AROUND
BUT WORDS ARE HARD TO HEAR UNDERGROUND
WHISPERS IN THE DUST / A SPIRIT WANDERLUST
THEY CROSS ONE DIMENSION TO THIS SIDE
AND POP UP OUTTA NOWHERE, DON’T WANNA HIDE
EVERLASTING LOVE REACHES THROUGH
PASS ON A BLESSING, WHEN IT SHINES ON YOU
MY MOTHER, BROTHER, FATHER LIVING ON
IN ANOTHER PLACE, BUT THEY’RE NEVER GONE
WHISPERS IN THE DUST / A SACRIFICIAL TRUST
WHEN AN ANGEL TOUCHES DOWN, FEELS SO GOOD
I WON’T EVER LOSE THAT LOVE, EVEN IF I COULD
THOUGH THEY’VE GONE AWAY, THEY CARRY ON
INFINITY IS A MARATHON
WHISPERS IN THE DUST / A SPIRIT WANDERLUST
WHISPERS IN THE DUST / CARRY ON THAT TRUST

better version, less percussion. It reminds me of someone I know, very” Haunting” lyrics too, Tommy.

Hey Stan,
One of my only tunes that speaks about death. The great mystery, the next life.
Thanks for the listen, and comments.

I like your brighter vocals on this mix better than those on the original version. They reflect better my now better outlook on life without Jim, whom I still love, miss, and think of every day.

Hello Mary,
And you always will. I miss him, too.
The vocals are actually the same ones as are on the previous release; it’s the electric guitar, drums and bongos that are different, and they really help to open up the original vocals. I think we’ve revisited four tunes to date, and just a few parts played a little differently can make a big change.
Thanks for listening, and writing.

Love this new mix. The drums and bongos add a mysterious twist to the sharper vocals. Love it! So beautiful.

Hello Carole,
Glad you like this relook…we do, too. It’s actually the same vocal performance, except this one doesn’t have an effect on it. And I love the bongos and timbales.
Thanks kindly,
Tom
