NEW RELEASE

Always Thinking of You

Flute, horn, flugelhorn, Bb trumpet 1, Bb trumpet 2, euphonium, amplified guitar, drum set, piano and voice (mezzo soprano)

“Always Thinking of You” is a fusion of a few different styles, including aspects of pop and rock as well as hints to the brass chorale style. It has a unique combination of instruments. Amplification is recommended to get the best group balance. I originally wrote the lyrics as a poem and then set the poem to music. The piece should be sung in a pop-like style, as opposed to an operatic style.

Always Thinking of You

Lyrics:

I don’t know what to do,
Every step brings me closer to you.
Every touch of your hand,
This is not what I had planned.

Forever and ever,
You will always be here,
Never forgotten,
So painfully near.
Each morning I wake,
Each breath that I take,
I’ll always be thinking of you,
Always be thinking of you.

Love come and gone.
Like a snowflake that melts in the spring.
My heart will grieve.
So for you this song I’ll sing.

Forever and ever,
You will always be here,
Never forgotten,
So painfully near.
Each morning I wake,
Each breath that I take,
I’ll always be thinking of you,
Always be thinking of you.
