Together In Time
03:58

This is a journey, we are on. And we’re learning, along the way
Like a melody, in a song. Following, the path it takes
I think a melody, is better with a harmony
Bound to make the sound so sweet, the way life can be
When it rises clearly, like a wave from the deep blue sea
A rolling tide pushing you and me, In harmony
Navigating, every day. Feel the rhythm, guide along
Driving through, dark and light. Lifting up, over time
When we focus, on the line. The tune will carry, us away
Together, in time. Following, the path we make

Worry Yourself Blue
03:26

My mother once told me you can worry yourself blue,
But it won’t change the outcome there’s nothing you can do,
When things go wrong and you can’t see straight,
The best way over is to find a way through
I just want to sleep all through the night
Don’t want you to tell me it will be alright
I don’t want to do it on my own
And I don’t want to be alone
My sister once told me you can’t do it alone,
Find somebody special and build a home,
Like a shelter in the winter from the driving snow
A canopy on the nights the wind blows
My Father never showed me the way to go
He turned his back on us, and left us alone
Forever and a day on this winding road
I’ll never move forward if I don’t let go

Looking at each other from across the room
Waiting for the other to make a move
Didn’t come here together but it’s all the same
I’m sure you don’t even remember my name
It’s a fine time to say
Those things that I wanted to say
Seems like the right time today
But I’ll just leave it… for some other day
And the years will pass they will crumble and fade
Will we just be here lying, in the beds we have made
To stand up and step across the floor
To surrender pride and open the door

I Can Believe
03:12
|
|||
|
I can believe, just like you believe,
or you can believe just like me,
but nothing will change, until we both see,
you don’t need belief, to make something true.
Are we shouting into an echoing room resisting all voices outside?
Is truth just for you justice yours too no one else gets peace of mind
I think It is clear, that we are broken
But I don’t know when the break happened
I know we’ll go broke, spending our time
And what is the cost, for belief over truth

Circling Wind
03:43
|

|
Years ago, now, history had changed
The chapter closed, time to start another page
It wasn’t a surprise, the ink was never dry
Trying to move through, mile markers in time
Writing as you go using the muses that you find
Shelter for a day. Hoping the emptiness will fade.
Get me out don't keep me in, this circling wind
Get me out don’t keep me in, this circling wind
Here we are again, starting off another year
Take it all in and gather up my fears
The sun is gonna shine, yeah the sun will shine again
Measuring emotion trying to give it all away
Diving right ahead it always goes another way
The light will always fade. When it's fighting with the rain

Deon Blyan Toronto, Ontario
Following The Path We Make OUT NOW!
Following the Path We Make, draws inspiration from the
musical foundations laid by the rock and roll greats of the late 70’s. Warm tones filled with the hook laden melodies Deon has become known for, decidedly more rock and roll than before while maintaining shades of Americana Country and Roots sounds.
