From the recordings Walking on the Wire and Walking on the Wire

This song seemed to write itself and is a song to honor my late son-in-law. I imagined him singing this to my daughter and the rest of our family members. He'll always be a part of our lives. Endless love!

Lyrics

"Now and Then"
© 2024, Gordon Thomas Ward

Now, now and then,
Rest your head in the clouds
Of your mind.

Near, near and far,
Burning stars of desire
In your soul.

I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see you.
I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see…

Clear, clear and bright
Colored light. Wash the fear
From your heart.

Here, here and there,
Love’s to share. Let its peace
Fill your skies.

I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see you.
I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see you.

Try to see
No boundaries,
Only possibilities.
Loose the chains.
Free your song.
You’ve been searching for so long… for so long.
Mmm-mmm mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see you.
I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see, you.
I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see you.
I’ll be watching when the rain is falling.
I’ll be calling from the ocean waves.
Doesn’t matter if it’s night or dawn
I see, I see, I see, I see…

Now, now and then,
Rest your head in the clouds
Of your mind.
