A Tom Petty style ballad.





In the breakers misty blow

the same old heartache strikes again

a heavy swelling in my throat

far away from tender hands.

In a sure way I'll stay cold

on a windswept deck away

from the memories big and bold

of a golden yesterday.

A piece of heaven in my soul

turns to memories of the past

where a distant fire glows,

a love light candle calls me back.

                      



In the breaker's misty blow

the same old heartache fills my eyes

In the breaker's misty blow

A voice is calling from the brine.



Here I stand alone again

ten thousand sailed miles away

with a cold and restless wind

blowing on my tear stained face.

Echoes roaming through my mind

of loving times at port of call

with the girl I left behind

on the shores of Montreal.

There's no lighthouse to be found

no immigration made for me

away from her I'm ocean bound

sailing on a cold gray sea.



In the breakers misty blow

the same old heartache fills my eyes.

In the breakers misty blow

I'll leave the light that fills the sky.



My co-writer(Conner D. Smith) and close friend, the man singing this song, just passed away after a long bout with cancer. Needless to say I'm feeling blue and depressed....thanks for listening for he was the kindest down to earth friend and I love to present this to people that don't even know him as a tribute to his great talent. He was a gifted composer and went out of his way to help fellow musicians grow and hone their songwriting skills.

Please feel free to visit this site and click on MP3 music and vote for this song as it will help expose his talent in memorium.

Sincerely



Eric True
