For the longest time ever I've had no songwriting mojo, so here's my first effort in a while!

I took inspiration from a photo I took whilst on holiday

I've been away so long I really can't remember how to post stuff here or if this will work!

Step Into The Air


In a picture

There’s a fire in the sky

Red, golden, green and blue

The colours of our lives

And in the distance

Behind the shadow of the sun

A crimson skyline

Declares the day is done


Step into the air

See the sunlight in her hair

Step into the air and dream

Step into the air

Seize the day without a care

Step into the air and breathe


At the foot of the mountain

As darkness falls, surrounds us all

Lights go gentle

As we sleep

And dream of a new day

Beneath the gentle kiss of the morning sun

A golden skyline

Depicts the day’s begun


Step into the air

See the sunlight in her hair

Step into the air and dream

Step into the air

Seize the day without a care

Step into the air and breathe 


I'll tell you how the sun rose

One flame at a time

Burning thru the darkness

Bringing each day into life

Warming bones for everyone

That feels that perfect touch

Of one we've missed right thro the night

We can never get enough


Step into the air

See the sunlight in her hair

Step into the air and dream

Step into the air

Seize the day without a care

Step into the air and breathe


‘The sun is up

The sky is blue

It’s beautiful

And so are you’

  • Wonderful! You've got a real mood and vibe going here, really dreamy and relaxed.

    You play well and can sing too!

    This is a lovely way to return to songwriting.

    Got that laid back feel that reminds me of CSNY. Glad you chose TSF for your comeback tour, have a feeling were in for a treat.

    Welcome and thanks for posting. look forward to hearing more.

    I enjoyed it all, great and with such a special feeling, very intimacy, the reverb you are using here gives to the vocals an ethereal taste in the ears.

    Arrangement is very personal, love sounds appearing here and there.

    Nice lyrics too. Me ha encantado. Tempo here fits so well the story. @WelshSteve

    Thank you so mush guys.

  • Sorry Steve, I missed this one. This is a very nice track. It has an almost 60's psychedelic feel to it. Loads of atmosphere and very memorable. I enjoyed this.
