Blind


Here are the lyric to my new song "Blind". Go for a listen of the first cut demo at Tara Lamont Music.
Let me know your thoughts...


Knocking on the door.
Revealing so much more.
Pull the curtain away, letting in - the light of day.

Altered views of circumstance, keep me frozen and afraid.
Hazy vision makes it hard to see, the person that you made.

Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.
Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.

Knocking on my door.
Shine your light once more.
Fire up in me.
Make me whole, complete.

Sunlight squinting, used to dark.
Never seen the light of day.
Push the shutters of my heart -
Open all the way.

Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.
Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.
Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.
Blind but now I see, you touched my blind eyes and now I see.

Sounds great -- I love the vocal harmony, too. In my imagination, I can almost hear a harmonica somewhere in there toward the end!

And you're awesome for putting your rough drafts out there for the world to hear -- the world would be a more musical place if everyone did that...

Neal,
Thanks for the comments! I can imagine harmonica in there too. I see and hear a kind of gypsy/folk groove to this one - I just need more gypsys to pull it off!

St. Brigid Blessings on the Threshold

In preparation for St. Brigid’s day, I consider the blessings that are with us on the threshold.  What are the blessings, neither at the beginning or end, but in the middle.  In transitional spaces that take up most of our days? I think that the threshold can be a space of healing. An opportunity to see things in a new way. A river that takes us to new places of grace. May you feel the presence of love in your thresholds. May it flow from all our beginnings through to each end. May the space of threshold be a balm like lavender, healing our battle wounds. May we find healing in the inbetween. Healing lives on the threshold. #blessings #stbrigid #taralamontart
