Lyrics

DANCE WITH ME

Hey Baby won’t you dance with me?
The Stars are on Fire and the Wind’s blowin’ Free
And Tonight there’s just you and me
Oh, and our Love

I love you, Baby
And I always will
If you ever changed your mind
Come on back, I’d be here Still
Love you, Baby
You’re my Heart and my Soul

The day we met
The breezes closed the door
On everything that came before
Forever and a Day
And maybe more
You’ll still be the one that I Adore

Hey Baby won’t you dance with me?
The Stars are on Fire and the Wind’s blowin’ Free
And Tonight there’s just you and me
Oh, and our Love

The endless sky
And the field of Dew
The Breeze comes calling
And Your Silver Shoes
We’re surrounded by Stars
And Heaven’s Glance
Sees not the Dancers
But just the Dance

	Yeah exactly Late night, very late night bar. Your vocal and the slow vibe kind of reminds me of Peter Gabriel singing "Waiting For the Big One". Brings back an alcohol slowness feeling. Nice work, Coop! Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)

	The HIT Man A recollection of a recollection over the Last Call - right there. However, we still dance when Moon Shadows grace a Spring night, after all these summers gone. Mind Bending work on "LifeStyles". Totally OUTTA HERE. VBR, Coop --- "What you Don't use, You Lose." Get Rockin' Check out my latest song called Intimate Anyway

Where's My harmonica?
Sounds like the last song at the open-mike; only we would get to jam with you, and this is one jam-able song. Great guitar licks; nice chord progression. I like how your vocal is affected; grabs the ear and holds on. Loved the line "day we met, The breezes closed the door On everything that came before" Really well said. Nice work.

	OPEN MIC TUESDAYS Totally the Last Song on Open Mic Night! Wish You'd been there, harmonica to Hand. "Life is Good, but it is Hard", I heard once. Like the Blues side of Town.

Just Lovely
What girl wouldn't love the message in this song? It's truly very sweet, you old softy!

I love the bridge, especially, but I'm going to get on your case about sucking on the reverb pipe as heavily as you did. Your voice doesn't need it and the song is a very close, intimate one. I'm going to send Joe after you if you're not careful, mister.

As RacerX said, this is a very genuine song and a very soulful performance.

POINT TAKEN
Dear Lisa - Welcome Back.
Just heard "After All" with JB and Thank You Both; Fine Work!

The "small" amount of Track 'Verb, that you mention, is mise en scene of the piece: the smokey, Left Bank bar of the recollection, a setting of the telling.
Too Much? (he asks, knowingly).

Kidding aside, I very much appreciate your Spin and Comment.
The "softy" underneath it all is a Direct Hit. Transparent, sometimes, eh?

VBR,
Cooper

	Perfect brother.... Just got home. One too many beers. Said goodnight to a beautiful woman. Just absolutely perfect. Not going to listen to anything else before I hit the sack. Want to end the day with this going through my head. Check out my latest song called Bourbon Street Dawn

thoddi	thoddi said 971 days ago (March 30th, 2007)
	yeah I dig that guitar RT. The simplicity of this tune is refreshing, 'cause it not so often found... Daring, and then simple and quiet as the last dance when you're one of the last couples dancing on a starry night:) I'm getting soft here... Well, bottom line.. I like it:) Check out my latest song called Don't tell me what I can't w/KTB and Ingve

rtcooper	rtcooper said 971 days ago (March 30th, 2007)
	Au Contraire That's Not Soft, That is the Vital The guitar is elemental rather than ornimental, as it needs to be. It tells it in it's own way, as You do So Well. With Best Regards and Wishes, Coop --- "What you Don't use, You Lose." Get Rockin' Check out my latest song called Intimate Anyway

	I love the way this just hangs in there like the slow burn of a guttering candle. Sweet licks in the break and singin straight from the heart. I see the old bartender dancin with the broom as he's sweepin up, and the last two people how've got nowhere to go are wonderin if they're goin there alone.

	ALRIGHT, NOW The Next FILM You do is from YOUR Pen, eh? Too Good, Brother. Rodin only suggests a Past and a Futire, he doesn't illuminate it. Stunning observation level; comprehension.

FOREVER YOUNG
Romance is always Young. It's an energy, a life force.

I love your Image. Cool. Thank You.

I hope you got to hear it After Midnight, cause it is, as you say, "After Hours", a smoker ring of a tribute to her and a feeling.

Thanks so much for the Spin and Your Comment - appreciated.

VBR,
Coop

Great slow dance....
Hold me tight, close to me
Let me see the smile in your eyes
Time's just right,
To dance all night
Share the love in our hearts

I'm not a poet, but now you know it
But this song really does somethin for me

My favorite lines in your song are:
"You%u2019re my Heart and my Soul..."
"You%u2019ll still be the one that I Adore.."

as you sing the ends of the choruses - great stuff

Nice control on your vocals throughout, you must have put a lot of practice into this, or you're just that good....

thanks for this

	BARD Hey, I Like Your Stanza, Harold! The vocal was a One AM, one take special, but the intended recipient certainly had me focused, she's my closest friend and a blessing - life's best.

Say, Brother
Before the phone call, we were talking about "Soul" (Very Cool Trx) in the Chat.

No, just Late Night GB musing. The Track cover, via Peak, gives the dimensional sense.
It was one pass Rhy Gtr and Vocal, one pass Ld Gtr, one pass Bass (played on a Strat. Ever tried to pluck a set of 09-42s? It's a Hoot).

Thanks for the Spin and Comment on a form that Must be Archaic to You.
Thank You.

Best Regards,
Cooper

THAT WHICH REGIONS
David Lynch is a favorite - Film Maker.

If the Utilitarian Grifter World of Four Flushers that Lynch presents exists, I've been spared any close encounters with it.

But Longing is the same, anyways. The piece skirts being a mirage and disembodied, save the Narrator's emphatic belief.
He holds tight in a shifting, ephemeral surrounding; the changes of time and place.

Thank You for the Spin and CRIT, - appreciated.
Best,
Cooper

LISTEN TO MORE DYLAN
If you find my presentation mindful of Dylan, you need to listen to More Dylan! heh heh.

Starting in 1959 I was taught guitar by a West Virginian focusing on Guthrie, the Carter Family, and such. By 1961, was playing guitar and harmonica together to his banjo and mandoline. First heard Dylan in 1963, but already had my first electric guitar.
I guess the functional stylistics at root are very similar, but it is hard for me to confuse myself with Dylan. I mean, no Joan Baez, Robbie Robertson, Edie Sedgwick, Andy Warhol - what the hey, short shrift or what?

Kidding aside, Thank You for the CRIT, if that's what you hear, there is a flaw of some laziness to think about over here.

Best Regards,
Coop

Wowee!
Yes, it's pretty late around here as I'm listening to this, and I'm so glad. And wow. breezes closing the door, stars blazing, silver shoes dancing among them. What lyrics! What a lucky lady the love of your life is, and how lucky you are to have her! This is beautiful! And your voice - gorgeous and very intimate, and the guitar - perfect. I love that solo in there, too. And why am I writing this comment? I should get back to the love of my life...

	Seems like... a late night, three drink love song... sulltry, bluesy with just the right amount of melancholy/mopey feel to it. Very fine electric lede solo and riffs.

	said 969 days ago (April 1st, 2007)
	but not really... Mopey is a poor choice of words.... Just that there is a bit of a cry in your voice as you sing that is very engaging to my ear... kudos on the song and the singing. Jack --- It's just music... Dadai

MIX MYSTERIES
Thank You, Brother.

Actually, there are no Fx on the Vocal Channel, itself, but the overal Track Fx in the Master catch that Channel, as well (can't afford Logic), which gives the piece a "Pop" air to it, despite the sole use of box one and two Blues scale guitar.

Category Confusion abounding.

Best Regards to You,
Coop

	schaWEET you sound pretty sweetly soulful yourself on this one, coop. i like the minimal approach - mix sounds good to these ears. i love the hopeful vulnerability that leaks thru your vocal. girls like that in guys - oh wait - guess you KNEW that. ;) thanks for the slow slide across this ear's dance floor. enjoyed your tribute to the L word. anne

	Deny it if you wish... ...but there's definitely some Dylan peeking out here. (Thinking of his recent stuff.) This is a charming plea and one I can't imagine being easily rebuffed.
