lyrics

Your demands are downright unreasonable
I mean you've got to be kidding right
All this stuff about losing your life
You're insane, get out of my way

I've seen great occurrences and I've seen miracles
And I always knew you were more than a friend
But now you tell me that it's all gonna end
In three days, you'll be back again
Yeah right, whatever

In the white light unknown
I like it in here, I don't want to go home

You took us up your favourite hill
Confided all and showed us what you'd always promised us
Our fathers

I said why don't we just pitch a tent
Talk about old times and never return to the world
Into which we were sent
And I'd like to forget

In the white light unknown
I like it in here, I don't want to go home
But beneath the blackened stone
It's cold outside and I don't want to do this alone

How come I say the dumbest things at all the wrong times
Should shut my mouth and just enjoy the white light
While it lasts
A little glimpse of the past
And your government to come
Yeah, seeing what you want being the only thing that's done

In the white light unknown
I like it in here, I don't want to go home
But beneath the blackened stone
It's cold outside and I don't want to do this alone

In the white light unknown
It's time to take it all back home
'Cause I don't think you wanted things this way
And I want you back
And I want us to want you to stay

I listened to a lot of Steve Lawson's music before buying any. So easy to play in the background while browsing on the iPad. So many moods and good to hear it coming as played live. He gets a lot from a bass and its in HD flac. It was time to catch up on buying... Alan Hall

I love this, especially the low bass at around 4:30. Higher Learning vibes. JD Short

Surprise
by Steve Lawson and Corey Mwamba

supported by 10 fans who also own “White Light Unknown”

Indeed, a very peaceful and relaxing EP (or short album). As always, the depth of Steve's spontaneous compositions and skillful delivery with his bass plus gadgets setup is astounding. His collaborations offer other ingredients to the recipe, here it's Corey Mwambas vibraphone. An excellent match! Note: Please consider supporting Steve these days, as he has to deal with severe health issues and won't be able to work for a while. Best wishes to you, Steve! Carsten Pieper
