about

This song came to me while I was lying next to my youngest daughter.

This demo is the first of a series of singles I'll be releasing in lieu of my live-recorded show on April 19th, 2024 at the Zeider's American Dream Theater.

Subscribers to my newsletter will be able to listen to each of these tracks (5-10) for free, those I release between Jan and April of 2024.

In particular, "One Less Day" will be recorded as a submission to this year's Tiny Desk concert. Wish me luck :) and any amount you feel like generously contributing will help recoup the cost of ... life.

lyrics

Days are long/years are short
Cruel and sweet/watch you grow
Eye to eye/face to face
Feel you breathe/I stay awake
Will it ever be enough
Mama lay down a little longer/let me touch your face
This time tomorrow/I'll be a little stronger
After today there'll be one less day to carry me
In the wai/In the mess
Count on me/Find your rest
Lean and strong/Like a bow
Will you stand/When you land
Will it ever be enough/Will it ever be enough
Mama lay down a little longer/let me touch your face
This time tomorrow/I'll be a little stronger
After today there'll be one less day to carry me
