Fishing With Jim
04:16

We launch the boat on the lake
We are unstoppable
Nature is wide awake
And all of her obstacles
I smile over at him
He's drinking honey brown
I feel safe out here with Jim
And the behond all around
We go where the winds blows
I cast my line near the shore
He shares with me things that he knows
That he learned sometime before
I often relate to him
I'm a lot like he was
I cherish these moments with Jim
In the behond all around us

The Season

September is here and I don't want it to end
The leaves that are green will soon turn yellow and red
There's little time to admire before they fall
To be mesmerized in front of it all
Walking on the railroad by river side drive
That's when she looked at me with a tear in her eye
The covered bridge gave us shelter from the storm
And my arms kept her warm
Try try try
I want to see you try
With the season I'm fading so hold me tight
Goodbye getting by

Point Comfort
Further up the 105
Is where I spend most my time
A beautiful forest you'll find
Abundant with maple and pine
Lakes filled with trout and pike
Surrounded by wild berry vines
On High Lake a full moon shines
As I gaze at the starts and sigh
Looking down on the field
Where the great owl was looking through me
Times we walked the trail
Hunting season with family and friends
Point Comfort winds
Are blowing against my skin
This place that I have grown fond of
Is becoming home

My Apartment In Hull
02:09
|
|

You were curled up in wool
And I was looking down
I couldn't hear a word they were saying
You blocked everything around
Now I'm sitting here
In my apartment in Hull
I guess I'll make the best of what's left
And keep my heart safe and sound
You don't see my flaws
And my despairing cause
I really love your life style
And that you made sense of mine

That's when you know that it's real
That's when you know that it's true
I shamelessly shed a few tears
As we exchange our thoughts and views
It was my first time in that store
I don't go out much anymore
But I'm glad I went there that day
Cause I would not have seen him play
I was leaning on the shelf
That's when I noticed a pack of Maxell cassettes on sale
On a blond arch top guitar he gently played
And I'm still haunted by his songs today
I saw Bosveld play at the Record Centre
I'm trying my best to keep it together
That show had an impact on me like no other
I Saw Bosveld play at the Record Centre

Claire
03:28

She was 3 year old when her father most control
Of his car and drowned in the river
Rarely ever given any love or affection
Raised by a cold hearted woman
As the years went by
Left high and dry
Holding onto the memory of her father
And every now and then
I think of what could have been
If he hadn't driven into the water
She prayed all her life
Hoping be would listen to her cries
Now the little girl is 81 years old
Never to be consoled

Lover Of Mine
05:04
|
|

I can see over mountains
But I can't predict the outcome
I'll try to satisfy your needs
Value your righteous beliefs
Silently worship your body
Secretly praise your mind
I am the militant keeping you from harm
So sleep gently little lover of Mine
I will be forgiving
Transparent as a ghost
Let's keep feeding the fire
And be confused together
For the time they are a joke
Sleep gently little lover of mine

I'm Here Now
03:29

I don't know him awfully well
And we don't talk so much
My father told me today
I live you son
I left 15 years ago
Hungry for adventure
And full of soul
To figure things on my own
I had to go
I thought about him every day
It made me scream out loud
Will he ever look at me
And be truly proud
Now things have changed
I'm not a child anymore
And for the first time in my life
Things are clearer then before
I'm here now

Wrong Turns
03:07
|
|
||
Grey and foggy mornings
Indulged in memories
Alone at the cabin
Glancing peacefully
At the misty mountains
And the scenery
Sitting by the fire
My guitar weeps
I spend my days inside
Where I can hide
I block out everyone
To chase these poems and songs
When the night comes
He can't go to bed
He hears echoes of
Lost love in his head
Wrong turns
Passionately
Expressing his grief
The sorrowing man
One day will find peace
In his wrong turns
These things are slow
But deep down he knows
He wouldn't grow
If it wasn't for
Wrong turns
Reconcile with yourself
With your past as well
Learn from the aches
We all blindly take
Wrong turns
You are not alone

First Of July
04:34
|
|
||
You take, you deform
You drain, you exploit
You burn, you cut
And bleed upon
The stolen soil
And where do I stand
Amidst this sacred land
Lost in the fog
Howlin' like a shepless shepherd dog
It's the first of July
Ain't no reason to smile
Better find a good place to hide for
It's the first of July

Outside I'm a Giant Gracefield, Québec
Floating down from Quebec's upper Gatineau, the ethereal sounds of Outside I'm a Giant draw inspiration from songwriter Jeremi Pierre Caron’s riverside hideaway. This four-piece band combines deep-voiced vocals, acoustic guitar, pedal steel, violin, mandolin, bass clarinet and harmonica. Lingering contemplation of nature and human nature is in abundance here. ... more
