Gravedigger, please Won't you help me find my baby He's been gone for such a long time I spend my nights alone and weep Please help me find that true love of mine He had brown eyes The darkest I'd seen And his lips, they tasted so sweet His hand in mine, his voice divine I miss most of all his heart beat I wait for so long For him to come home Lost and all alone Please bring my baby back home He said that he'd be coming back soon He said that he would never leave me But now he's gone, I'm all alone A hole in the ground is now his home I wait for so long For him to come home Lost and all alone Please bring my baby back home Gravedigger, please Won't you let me see my baby And be in his arms one very last time The night is long but I'll be with him And with him I will close my eyes

I heard the news I used to see myself in you Turns out too Everyone I've loved was just like you Love will let you down Everyone that hurt me They're not around Love will let you down No matter what you do It's not worth holding on to Now I've got Someone I can put my trust into I can see I wasn't meant for you, you weren't meant for me Love will let you down Everyone that hurt me They're not around Love will let you down You're nothing but a bad memory Fading now Oh love's got me down

about

These two songs have haunted me for the last ... 7 years. I had worked on them forever, one of them got finished a lot more quickly than the other one. The problem was the other one. I felt like I couldn't continue working on anything else until I finished it. So I sat. And I didn't work on music, even though I had other songs I could work on.

These songs were inspired by someone in particular, but now that person doesn't really matter anymore. It's... kind of a strange thing the way that works.

Anyways...

about

Cherry Ripe Orlando, Florida

I make music whenever I can or whenever inspiration hits. It's always good when those two things come at the same time.
