Let It Go.... Was originally called Incantation, upon much urging I decided to change it. Song is about the beauty in surrendering to the avalanche of emotion when love comes to town, October was the month Heather and I met. I was resistant to my feelings for her but ultimately love won and defeated my doubts and fears and vulnerabilities . We approached this song quite differently then I've ever done a song- the instrumentation is driven by a string section, then bass and drums and an acoustic guitar.
Lyrics
LET IT GO ( Incantation)
Somewhere in middle America, I was at the end of my rope
Everything i’d worked for , was going up in smoke
Been too long running , too long from right
Everything changed, on that October night, here we go
I’m gonna let it roll, let it roll, let it roll out of control
I’m gonna let it go , let it go, let it go, let it go
Harbour lights reflected, on the waters of my soul
You took all these pieces and somehow made it whole
You took my regret and emptiness and somehow made me proud
Been lost for so long, Hallelujah now i’m found, ...here we go
Chorus
Scarred like a sunset, meek as a lamb
Love can be the answer that you don’t understand
My faith was under fire, i was drawing my last breath
Then you mended my heart........here we go......
Shame is a language, i’ve always understood
Fear is a doorway, that’s made of rotted wood
Temptations linger, like the barnacles of time
Salvations singing in this carnival of mine....here we go
