Breaking the Bread

about

My new release ‘Breaking the Bread’. I hope you enjoy. This was written in a day and is a fairly simple folk tune. I also made a video for this on my YouTube channel. As always, this was all recorded using two instruments; my guitar and 80s keyboard, as well as my voice and a looped drum track. Compared to some of my other songs, I kept the instrumentation pretty simple and built into a slight crescendo in the final chorus. Lyrically, I was in a bit of a ponderous, introspective mood and deliberately made my lyrics ambiguous, you can interpret them as you wish haha. As some of you know, all aspects to my music is done completely by myself so I really appreciate the time you have taken to listen to this track. Be sure to like and share if you feel the need. Thank you so much!

lyrics

From rolling emerald hills, west to the mountains
We’ve lived two hundred thousand years and counting
And we will never stop our song from a-sounding
Like the harmonious water of a fountain

Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
The bread, the bread
The bread, the bread

We halt our wanderings on this blue respite
They say it’s a glimmering paradise of light
True, I knew I loved him deeply at my first sight
But now he is an eternal phantom bight

Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
The bread, the bread
The bread, the bread

Oh

Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
Lo and behold, the breaking of the bread
The bread, the bread
The bread, the bread
The bread, the bread
The bread, the bread
