Where The Water Meets The Sky
written & performed by Hook

Where the water meets the sky
is the point where I
Hope to seek out refuge from
the pain & suffering that surrounds me

Do I have it inside
do I have anything at all
is this strength something  I posses
upon it I call

Where the water meets the sky
is the point where I
Look to seek redemption
& hope to one day achieve ascension

Do I have it inside
do I have anything at all
is this strength something  I posses
upon it I call

Where the water meets the sky
is the point where I
Hope to finalize
This life

Do I have it inside
do I have anything at all
is this strength something I posses
upon it I call

Great Hook! The trumpet gives this a very "south of the border" flavor. I like how the baritone Uke's strum and the way your are sliding into some of the chords gives the impression of background vocalists singing ooooo's....nice. The crazy middle eight adds to the fun of the song. Nice work amigo!

Really well put together. The trumpet spoke to me as well. Cool choice and applied with a deft touch. This put a smile on my face.

If you looped the instrumental bridge over and over against your fire footage from your other post, I would freak out.

That hit the mark Hook on this wet drizzling evening here in the U.K. Love that Trumpet .... Oh and I am so jealous of that blue sky ... I want some ... No scratch that I need some ...

Damn, I miss that blue sky - we are just coming out of the darkness in the UK :-)
Great tune brother, loved the feel on this - I liked the crazy mid section, that was cool as anything :-) Loved the south american rhythms on this and the cool trumpet. Great lyrics as always.
