The mood is Celtic, the message is love and the timber is a perfect storm. This week's slow dance rises and falls like the waves on the ocean, filling your mind with images of ethereal bliss. It's the ideal love song created specially for 'The One'. My dad says, "Nothing's that sure", but I'm here to tell you that real, honest-to-goodness, unconditional love lives and breathes among us. I've seen evidence of it in the crystal blue eyes of my sweetheart, Mark Sheldan. Although, we when we first met, he hid them behind a pair of big, thick, expensive glasses.
Shortly after, he got lasik eye surgery and threw away those ginormous spectacles and saw the world for the beautiful place that it is. That was 25 years ago! WTF? How did time go by that fast? I've written so many songs since then, a lot of them love songs and I feel like this powerful ballad with emotional lyrics that profess undying love and commitment, has some of the most magical moments yet.

Here's Mark as Elton John playing our wonderful electric Yamaha piano. (marksheldan.com) That photo was taken at our Halloween party this year. If you look closely, you can see me as Bonnie Raitt in the reflection. I was playing around with the synthesized strings the other day and decided to add it to this recording. It blended nicely with Mark's viola and took the hymn-like serenade to another level. Listen for the storm tube that comes in sporadically and tranquil harmonies in the chorus that I had to think really high up in my brain to reach. No auto-tune people, it's all me. LOL. A simple, yet stunning recording done at Twisted Gitar Music Studio.

Sure As The Morn
No matter how many clouds in the sky there’s a sun up there
And sooner or later she’s gonna come out to sing
We’ve been up, we’ve been down but what’s turned it around is my love for you
It’s as sure as the morning and pure as a mountain spring
As long as you love me I feel the world is a safer place
When I come home I know your arms will be there
For as long as I can remember you’ve been my best friend
As sure as the morning you’ll be here untill the end
Your love is sure as the morning
Your love is pure as a baby’s heart
Your love is so powerful just like a storm (just like a storm)
And sure as the morn
No matter how many clouds in the sky there’s a sun up there
And sooner or later she’s gonna come out to play
We’ve been up, we’ve been down but what’s turned it around is my love for you
It’s as sure as the morning and sweet as a summer day
My love is sure as the morning
My love is pure as a baby’s heart
My love is so powerful, just like a storm (just like a storm)
Our love is sure as the morning
Our love is pure as a baby's heart
Our love is so powerful, just like a storm (just like a storm)
And sure as the morn
Sure as the morn
