Distant Tales - Mark Horning

New song. Words and Music: Mark Horning I’m using my Rainsong Shorty for this recording. Lyrics: --Distant Places Distant times --Ancient stories, or song, or rhyme. --Distant People, Distant tales, --Tell a story, triumph and fail. Homer’s epic of the wine dark sea, Is still moving, to you and to me. Midnight rider - Named Paul Revere, Do you duty, despite... those fears Set you feet down that yellow brick road, find your prince, who might be a toad Raise that banner on that barricade, Find that courage, don’t... be afraid --Distant Places Distant times --Ancient stories, or song, or rhyme. --Distant People, Distant tales, --Tell their story, of triumph and fail. A scorpion has his nature, despite what he claims, The Cosmic Corvids will play their games The leopard, he cannot change his spots, And the lesson in the story’s more important than the plot. For dragons know the secret of cartography
