Fly Away was released digitally in 2017. This song is about my mother, my biological father, JFK, John Lennon and some of my old girlfriends. I am playing all instruments including guitars, organ, bass and drum programming.

When I was a young boy
My parents split up
We boarded an airplane
Flew back to where we’re from

Last time I saw my dad
He was standing on a train
I waved goodbye to him
And I cried in the rain
I watched the horses
Pulling the President
His wife wore a black veil
His son was saluting
The phone rang in the night
My friend was distraught
Something about John Lennon
And how he had been shot
I held back my feelings
And I tried to be tough
When my lover told me
She didn’t want my love
I sat beside the bed
And held my mother’s hand
I watched her take her last breath
And tried to understand
