This piece is dedicated to three angels in my life. My mother, who planted the seed of imagination, my daughter, for helping me see through the cloudy sky's and to a special friend who softened the pillows of my heart, read my soul and created a fountain of inspiration and dreams.
"When you come back down"
-- lyrics by Nickel Creek
You got to leave me now,
you got to go alone;
You got to chase a dream,
one that's all your own;
Before it slips away.
When you're flyin' high,
take my heart along;
I'll be the harmony to every lonely song,
That you learn to play.
When you're soarin' through the air,
I'll be your solid ground;
Take every chance you dare,
I'll still be there;
When you come back down.
