Here’s a new song I recently wrote together with Carroll Kiphen: If I Was Young Again. I have to admit, the older you get the more you start thinking about this topic. Carroll wrote the lyrics and I composed the tune and played all the instruments. This one is a bit more complex than many of my recent songs. Linda Beringmeier contributed the vocals. She sounds really awesome. Enjoy.

IF I WAS YOUNG AGAIN

Verse:
As a child I'd spin the globe
Place my finger down
Close my eyes imagine
The new life I had found
Nothing's like the innocence
Of a young child's mind
It's beauty and it's wonder
Oh how I miss those times

Pre-chorus:
Round and round and round we'd go
Places in our minds
Open to adventure
Unchained from father time

Chorus:
Places that I'd go
Things that I would do
If I was young again
I'd go back with you
I'd dream like a child
Of things that I could do
If I was young again
I'd go back with you
If I was young again
If I was young again

Verse:
I'd climb up Mt. Olympus
Sit on Zeus's throne
Look out upon the world
Give you all I owned
We'd sail the Nile with Pharaoh
Help him drink his wine
If I was young again
And darling you were mine

Pre-chorus:
Tumbling like rolling dice
Good luck on our side
All we would have to do
Is wish and close our eyes

Chorus

I enjoyed it, Robert. Sweet melody, very nice production, as always. Love the vocals too. It's a small thing, but the mispronunciation of Zeus does stand out a bit. Not sure if it's easy to go back and correct it.

I may or may not be an enigma

good to see that you are still creating new tunes. Sweet melody, well done 🙂 ... 

Every once in a while I get in the mood or so... and start to play...
