#3 of 20.
this one was born in an empty performance hall in a castle on the water; the 300-year old Villa Concordia in Bamberg, Germany, where in september 2021, i was given permission to rehearse for an upcoming show on their beautiful Steinway piano, in the very same room in which i played my first concert in Bamberg, back in 2015.
thank you for all of your lovely comments about the new album – CDs are still available through bandcamp, and it can be streamed in all sorts of places.
love,
eric.
come back to haunt me
i’ll be no longer
a miner of melting snow
weighed down
by a magnifying glass
let the tunnels all collapse
around me
and in the darkness i’ll
risk it all
let every earthquake and
every fault
come back to haunt me
come back to haunt me
you
cut with your decks of candles
across the lake
(through driving rain)
and your holds hide
a thousand hurricanes
who’ve
lost their way
come blow the house down
every wall
as if the whole thing was
made of straw
come back to haunt me
come back to haunt me
come on
sail
pace through the fog
pulling in
setting off
i’ll
race to the dockside
with your name
held aloft
