Dare To Believe
I've always been a firm believer in positive songs, Who wants to depress people ?
Steve Seskin helped with this song , He had alot of hits back in the day

I see you wishing down an empty well.
listen to the stories, those echoes they tell.
You'll never know until you try.
Take your best shot, my lonely child.
It's not a hidden secret.
That faith will always lead you.
To a place where all of your dreams will come true.
If you dare to believe,
are you ready for the well -traveled road?
Look at all the people, how they carry their loads.
You too will have something to bear.
Why not make the best choice, set sail somewhere?
It's not a hidden secret.
That faith will always lead you.
To a place where all of your dreams will come true
. If you dare to believe
, hold on.
Have to be strong.
Fight through this storm.
You may think I'm preaching to you.
But I'm no better, just playing it cool
I'm walking that same jagged line.
Trying to turn darkness into light.
It's not a hidden secret.
That faith will always lead you.
To a place where all of your dreams will come true.
Dare to believe.
Little faith, little hope, bring you there.
Dare to believe.
Keep on fighting.
Hold on, be strong.
You'll get there.
Fight for everything.
Turn that darkness into light.
On the way to Steves house , I saw a shoot out , He asked what route did you take ? Well you should have taken this route. he did live in Richmond , a rather crime ridden town . Back then , Grown Men don't cry was climbing the charts that Steve wrote . In the meeting , I wrote a song called , Sitting on a needle under a ton of hay , Some guy got offended , Steve thought it was hilarious

Need to check your links, Elvis. The ones with "upload" in the text won't work. They need to look like this one:

It certainly is positive! Good energy to it. And a real toe tapper to boot!
Love the bridge, that's probably my fav part.
Strong song, and really polished.

Thanks to Owen for posting the correct link 🙂
Great production and a solid song, even if it's not one of my favorites of yours. This one is more straightforward with a generic feel-good message - less of the quirky, individual, visual style that I love about your songs. Sitting on a Needle Under a Ton of Hay is the song I really want to hear.😂

I can see now why I offended the other writer
Feeling like a one eyed tractor piolet
Plowing up empty dreams
That farm girl was a whore
She left me without even doing the chores
And the only thing on my mind is getting laid
Trying to find love is like sitting on a needle
Sitting on needle under a ton of hay

Cousin Becky wants to marry me
Uncle Jack will throw in a case of moonshine
But she looks like she swallowed a hog
I'd rather date my one legged dog
So ill just play with myself on this fresh cut bail
Trying to find love is like sitting on a
Needle
Sitting on a needle under a ton of hay
