"More Than Wood" a Hook original

[Hook]

After I posted "Behind Blue Eyes" this morning I grabbed my Tres and this came very quickly on the back porch. LITLR, BR80, Cuban Tres, Rocking Chair & some birds.

More Than Wood

written & performed by Hook

I'm just so happy to see
that you come back to me
and we'll try this all again
Only time will tell
 if our little ship will Sail
and if it does
 where the wind will steer

Twist and turn
the river flows
the current pulls
the undertow
catches hold and shake this good
but this canoe for two
is made of much more than wood

There will always be times
when waters run dry
we're forced to Portage across
The weight of our gear
will test our Union
I fear we've weathered storms before
we'll weather many more

[Farrell Jackson]

Very nice Hook...the Tres sounds very alive! I like the "open to interpretation" as your lyric unfolds. Very poetic and up there with your best.

The vibe of this song perfectly matched the lyrics. That's not an easy thing to do.

Great post.

Great lyrics,there are so many great lyrics coming out on the site lately .
Your musicianship is startling and you have the gift to easily get great stuff from many instruments.
Another great hook song.

You really can turn on a sixpence... just listened to your mad version of Behind Blue Eyes, then I come across this beautiful, heartfelt, touching song. Talk about a contrast! Superb stuff, mate!
