    I haven't been shaken to the core by a song like this in many years... I find myself wondering if EVER. The tension, resolution, tenderness of it... there aren't words to do it justice. I've been listening to Ray's music for a decade now and never encountered this song until tonight, if you can believe it. I will cherish this song until the end of my days.

    This song haunts me. I lost my husband in June and he was 10 my senior, so this song resonates in my heart as I can see his face singing this to me to give me the strength of promise ahead of us. (I am using his phone, so his name shows as poster, but he's not)

    Lyrics:
    Don't let your mind get weary
    And confused your will be still, don't try
    Don't let your heart get heavy
    Child, inside you there's a strength that lies (lies)
    Don't let your soul get lonely
    Child, it's only time, it will go by
    Don't look for love in faces, places
    It's in you that's where you'll find kindness
    Be here now, be here now
    Be, be here now, be here now
    Don't lose your faith in me
    And I will try not to lose faith in you
    Don't put your trust in walls
    'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall
    Be, be here now, be here now
    Be, be here now, be here now

    One can attempt and pretend to be here in this moment when in truth and effect we swing between the past and future at the expense of this moment, because in our ignorance, we feel so sure of invested with all the power to control the ongoing flow of life. Loneliness is one thing but being alone is to be free of all the fabrications, that you are your own person. We are pretentious at best! Gimmicky.

    Just LISTEN to his Voice and laid-back melodic Tunes, accompanied by spectacular band musicianship.
    NOTE: Women seem REALLY Attracted to his moving Musical Style, and we've been ENJOYING Every Álbum, too, as his UNIQUE song- crafting style grows with each Recording.
