Story Behind The Song
Sitting in a down town apartment. Pausing for thought and memory casting memory to the future.
Song Description
Moving from saint john to Moncton in 2006 I saw the parting of a friend. And contemplated life here after and wrote the song. Decided to keep walking. Seeing time change and the leaves of life turn.

Lyrics
"The Quiet Night"
Oh the quiet night pauses
Waiting instantly
The lights can't bind us
As long as you answer honestly
And all the things that have come before me
I know I will be back again
The moment really tenses
Sneaking in this dream
Hiding in the shadows
Making quiet Melody
Catching little glimpses of angel reality
Spilling rhyme and memory
Please darling ask me
Oh the quiet night pauses
Waiting instantly
The lights can't bind us
As long as we answer honestly
