time stars understanding
Wonder in everything No matter how great or small... Same thing that's scrawled across the stars Is written under our skin... There's a time to search for understanding Sometimes you just got to sing New horizons, new horizon within
writing emotional thinking
In terms of writing, I think something happens to you, and you think, "Oh I'm going to write about that. That's an emotional event." But obviously, if you keep going, and it's something you do with regularity, you've got to find other ways to write.
emotion
I don't know where emotion emanates from exactly. I'm full of it, that's all I know.
spring world energy
I'm absolutely flooded with a raucous energy to get out into the world and tell my story again. I feel like this is spring. After a period of shriveling, out come the leaves.
kissing advertising aids
Everything's stolen. Everything precious - be it a kiss, or be it James Brown - gets misappropriated to the aid of the advertising executives. So, an act of reclamation, somewhere else to be: that's what I want my music to be. Somewhere you can step into. A place.
rain fall gold
October's gold is dim — the forests rot, The weary rain falls ceaseless, while the day Is wrapped in damp.
I guess I'm just a heart-on-sleeve type of human being.
emotional married problem
I don't really know why I'm such an emotional person, that's just how I was born. It's a problem. It's not easy to be married to me.
emotional creative together
In the creative act, you kind of reach down and look for things that will, when put together, create an emotional effect.
fall night cities
Night falling on the city Quite something to behold Don't it just look so pretty This disappearing world
I don't know what I want, but I know what I don't want: I don't want to just repeat myself.
life stars fall
There's nightingales calling, shooting stars falling, like jewels in the rain.
struggle
I find everything a struggle.
gray happened love money needed
And the film, This Year's Love (which Gray scored), supplied some of the money for it. Things just happened just when we needed them.
