about

Just me here.

lyrics

You ever tried something And you just can't get it right?
Over and over and it makes you uptight?
Well here's a little ditty ... For you and you and you
Get a little daylight and you’ll see your way through

When...
Mozart wrote his symphonies
Seems they came out like a breeze
But even Mo-zart went on his knees
When he got it mostly right

What’s that you say?
If you feel you need to get something ju-u-ust right
But it keeps going ju-st wrong
Take a little time. Get a little daylight and you’ll feel it alright

When Hannibal crossed the mighty Alps,
When his elephants were nothing but toddling whelps, ...
Before his troops took any scalps, ...
He took a little time. Got a daylight
And said “It’s alright “

"Try this one."

When Olivier played a Shakespearian role,
Before his Hamlet could unfold,
His king's speech so eloquently told
That he took a little time Got a little daylight
And said to himself:

To BE, or not to be: that is the question.
To be, or NOT to be: THAT is the question.
To be...or... not...to be... ...that is the question.

There are so many examples who we admire
Their stars shining, their names afire
We didn't know they too aspire
Let’s hear it…
As they took a little time Got a little daylight
And said, “well alright “

So I took my daughter out to drive, ...
She was parallel parking, at least she tried...
I'll fail my driving test she cried.

Honey, sweety.. you're gettin closer.
Each time you do it, something's going right!
Just… take a little time Get a little daylight
And you’ll be alright

When perfection eludes you
Take a little time Get a little daylight
And you’ll feel all-right

And when you doubt it all
Take a little time Get a little daylight
And you’ll say
“Alllll Right!”

about

Stephen Scholle Hartsdale, New York

Picked up guitar in 1967. Began writing songs in 09 after a breakup. TY to Fred Gillen, Burr Johnson, Peter Calo and the Ashokan music community for supporting my passion. I write from the chord voicings and I write from the voice inside. Some songs channel moments. Sometimes words just sound good. I like to let the song speak and I like to work with others on that. If you'd like, get in touch. ... more
