Story Behind The Song
Viet-Nam was life changing. When you listen to this recording, you will hear "air-raid sounds". It was important to include those sounds to give the listener a "feel" of the climate at the time. I'm just grateful that these "air-raids" were done with the keyboard/synth.
Song Description
This is one of my first songs. It was written shortly after my return from Viet-Nam. I decided to record it because it had so much power over me. My mind was in a "very unusual place" at the time, as can be witnessed by the lyrics.

Lyrics
I see the ice melting under my feet. The ground below me has turned to fire.
I feel the earth turning. I feel the fire burning and it's coming down on me.
Can't let it get me down...Can't let it get me down...'Till I Find Love.
Lead
I feel the world spinning under my feet. The battle's on... They're winning again.
I feel the earth shaking...I feel my life awakening. It goes round..and round...and round.
Can't let it get me down...Can't let it get me down
"Till I Find Love."
