lyrics

april rain is falling harder than it did this time last year
did this time last year
momma birds are calling for their babies to tell them the coast's clear
tell them the coast's clear
the scent of pine is thick, it's stronger than a thousand candles in the summer sun
candles in the summer sun
i'll crawl into the attic and watch it pour like falling shells of a shot gun
shells of a shotgun

and i miss you
come home soon

if you close your eyes, you can hear the river sing to her maker
sing to her maker
while the mountains sigh reverberates across this clouded green acre
clouded green acre
its bitter cold outside but warm enough to go out and waste the day thinking
waste the day thinking
with the pathway as a guide ill walk the valley while the daylight is shrinking
daylight is shrinking

and i miss you
come home soon

and nighttime comes
like a kiss from the angel
who hold back your pain
and brings on the april rain

Family
by Noah Gundersen

Without a doubt Noah is one of my favorites; "Family" was a big influence on my EP. It's rich with haunting vocal melodies, and lyrical depth... it is an absolute masterpiece. Go check it out. Saige Cross

Rob Scallon
by Rob Scallon

Rob's music is a cross between William Ackerman and Andy Mckee... he is a brilliant guitarist and has the ability with this album to really transport his audience to another place. Wonderful record. Saige Cross
