about

new song (4.30.11) i taped my digital recorder (olympus) to the top curve of my guitar (djane) and pressed record.

this song is about worrying less about others. worrying less allows the worryer to set sail and be free.

sliding across the guitar strings reminds me of hoisting up a sail when rigging a boat.

lyrics

i haven't the foggiest where you are,
where you are.
i will have to trust that you're ok,
you're ok.
i haven't the foggiest where you are,
where you are.
i am going to have to trust you're ok
you're ok.

is that ok?
is that ok?
to let go
a little
and trust that you'll find your way?
is that ok?
is that ok?
to trust that you will find
your own way?

i haven't the foggiest where you are,
where you are.
i'm going to have to trust you're ok
you're ok.

la la la la...
