a song for jessica reinecke, good friend and fellow artist

one-guy acoustic rock jazz blues pop band who loves smooth chords, the djembe, and tasteful drum loops.

hey its me, nic. i'm an aspiring artist--emphasis on "aspiring." artistry, to me, is a lofty and difficult goal, one that i have yet to achieve, one that will take tons more practice, bleeding fingers, massive migraines, small sweaty venues, and a ridiculously miniscule amount of money. but it is an important goal. because i believe that true artistry is the only way to truly please the One who has given me the gifts i have.

Story behind the song

jessica is a good friend of mine from my first college.  this song is the one that made me my first dollar as a solo artist, standing on the beach with my saxophonist brother (walker).  the dollar's on my wall.  the song's on my cd.

Lyrics

i can almost see the tears raining
as your words stream through the telephone
and in this torrent of emotion
my ears are straining
to catch the undertow
in every line

this one's for jessica to ask you not to run too far away
hold on to love, dear jessica, in the end he'll make it all work out ok
yeah

you called me up, your feelin' down, you want to know if you've done it right
and you've left me uncertain when you look around
do i go through your eyes?
i'm on your side
