From Bob:
"This second CD of mine is similar to the first in at least one respect—these songs are all deeply personal. As the title, lifelines, implies, these lyric lines are most definitely all about my life, my inner life. Yet if the first recording was all about pain and the requisite willingness to feel into its dark tunnel, then this new collection is arguably posited near the far end of that tunnel—a weary wanderer stretching out his long-cramped body, blinking in the almost-overpowering morning sun. In Track #5, entitled Early Morning Stretch, the refrain is as follows:
Oh…look at what you’ve done to me, my friend
You’ve turned me all upside and down
I’m off to dreamland like a child by nine at night
And I’ve forgotten how to whine or even frown

My father’s birthday is in September
Turns 80 first day of the fall
His health is hanging on, still got lots of kick
But that number, well, you wonder bout it all
Man there’s so much I want to tell you
I can’t imagine where to start
So I’ll just sit right here and let it all come out
God help me throw the valve that stops my heart
We walked a beach once, Carolina
It must be fifteen years ago
The gulls were squawking, it was windy, it was cold
You were speaking truths I didn’t want to know
I heard you harping about your decisions
Said you cared and that was why
You felt the need to lay it all out in the sand
I was messing up and then you stopped to cry
You were sorry, oh so sorry, for the things that I had done

Sing Me Home by Susannah Blachly
(Song for Carolyn)
Oh, Mother of my child's heart
I've been waiting for so long
Oh, Mother of my child's hear
To hear your homecoming song
Oh, Mother I can see your face
Your shining eyes and your open smile
Oh, Mother I can see your face
So full of longing for your child
Have you come
to sing me back into your arms
With the wind a gentle cradle
Beneath a canopy of stars
Oh, Mother of my child's heart
Have you come to sing me home
Sing me home...
Oh, Mother of my child's heart
Have you come to sing me home...
Oh, Mother I can hear you call
Through the birds outside my window
Oh, Mother I can hear you call
Through all the love inside this room
Oh, Mother will you sing to me
And fill my dreams with your radiant light
Oh, Mother will you sing with me
As the day gives way to night
