about

I wrote this track as i was trying to write a love song in a different way. it was written in Oct/Nov 2011 and summer was just starting so i think it has a real summer feel to it.

lyrics

I AM YOUR SKY
I’m the dog outside your milk bar
I’m the Ray Ban’s for your shade
I’m the sun that’s on your shoulders
On a brilliant summer day
I’m the road stretched out before you
When you drive down the coast
I’m the radio that’s blastin’ out that song you love the most
------------------------
I’m a full weekend of shopping
Where everything just fits
I’m ya credit card when the sales are on
I’m the dress that hides your hips
The new shoes you look so good in
As you walk down the street
I’m the coffee that is waiting
I’m the one you’ve come to meet.
---------------------
Think of me whenever you’re low,
I’ll raise your spirits high – I AM YOUR SKY.
---------------------------
I’m the bird’s that sing above you
And fill your heart with song
I’m the present that is just for you
When Christmas comes along
I’m the cloud that floats across the sky
And watches over you
I’m the list that holds the million thousand things
You have to do.
--------------------------------------
Way up here above the world,
You and I will glide – I AM YOUR SKY
--------------**********************---------------------
When you take my hand
You will understand – as we drift higher and higher
Every thing is clear
In the atmosphere - flying
--------------INSTRAMENTAL--------------------
I’m a summer night descending
When you think you’re alone
I’m a clear lane on the freeway
As you make your way home
The stars that shine above you
All hanging by a thread
I’m the dream’s that entertain you
As you float in your bed.
-------------------------------
As we drift above the clouds
Our love will lift us high – I AM YOUR SKY.
I AM YOUR SKY – I AM YOUR SKY.
(Flying, You and I flying)

Reviews -Mark Demetrius (Rolling Stone Magazine
“ Barry doesn’t fit into any stylistic pigeonhole; He’s simply a superb singer-songwriter who can probably compose hook lines in his sleep. Like Loudon Wainwright III, he proves he’s no dork precisely by writing about dorkishness, loneliness and inadequacy. ‘Not Think Of You ‘ is a slow painful blues worthy of Billy Holiday, thats saying something” ... more
