Happy V Day all. Yup… the flood is here. Rocking the bed head, I came up with a few new ideas this morning while looking out at a sheet of ice forming on our deck. This one is about ten minutes old and will be called “Heart of Gold”.
While mumbling through the verse to write the melody, the first line that came together is“The problem with horizons is they’re the same distance away, no matter which direction that you face”. So, that made me envision someone heading west in search of opportunity.
Minutes later, I had this chorus: “I'm panning for signs of a better life. I’m washing the past away. I was born with a stubborn mind and a heart of gold. I’m starting to believe that these two parts of me are the same.” I think this will be a good one! -Jason
