If There's A Heaven

It sounds like a quiet conversation under the night sky, when it seems that time has stopped and even the stars are listening. There is no pathos here - only weary honesty and a little hope, the kind that clings to the light at the end of the song. The words flow softly, like a breath nearby, and they contain a simple truth: everything may not be okay, but nearby is almost paradise.

This is music in which doubts need not be hidden and fears can be let go. It smells like grass after rain, tickles the skin with the evening breeze, and leaves an aftertaste of something warm, earthly, and infinitely human. Even if there is no sky, you still want to believe that it exists, at least in someone's embrace.
