Goodness, me, your voice is a lullaby for the soul. Lets just start there! I love the way you address the restless traveler at each verse, imparting wisdom along the way. Pointing the compass back home, to ones life, to ones soul. Embracing all that both befalls and graces us. What a brilliant write!

I'm pretty sure it is very good. For me it's a song that I might be singing to a more or less grown child, or to myself. Addressing that fight or flight, but mostly flight instinct, talking myself down and back. You can run away or want to run away and still come home.

Pure Americana, tender and homeward bound. It was worth the effort, it turned out really well. The dulcimer is just the right touch. Evokes life from the 30s and earlier, when people would leave for jobs, to see the world, to get out of a small town. No cells phones, often no letters, no news over the grapevine, until they returned one day with a tale to tell. The prodigal returned home, now grateful to know what home is. Such a stunning song.

This went straight through my heart from the first notes... so utterly beautiful. I'm in thrall with what's usually called Americana and also with the Great American Songbook so I'd love to stay in touch. I'm totally committed to playing, writing and singing but this Fawm was a nightmare I because had a terrible accident on the night of the 2nd of February. I walked in the dark to the bathroom and stumbled into the edge of the open door, bursting my lips and smashing my left incisor to pieces. A stunning beginning. But I still have some songs on the back of the stove and I stir them occasionally. And thank you for your lovely comment on Moonlit Avenue. Ciao Pearse

I didn't expect to hear hammered dulcimer! The melody is very pretty. The words are relatable and honest. Love the ending.

I love the choice to fade it out! Really on theme with being a traveler!

This is truly beautiful, Deb. The music has a timeless quality, in the genre and style of 'Shenandoah', say. It's a pure American sound to accompany the 'restless' and road themes that are deeply American while also being universal, from Odysseus and the Prodigal Son to The Hobbit. There's something about the iii minor chord (that you use well here) that gives both a sense of rest and of tension: the pull of the road, the pull of home. Really lovely song.

What a beautiful song, with its simple, yearning melody. The lyric is lovely, and the performance is so warm and comforting, like the soup on the stove and the freshly baking bread.

How very beautiful! Well worth however much effort it took. I especially like soup and fresh baked bread at the end of the road. It’s what I’d want.

Very nice. I can easily hear this as a central quieter number in one of these 1960's movie musicals, where a wiser supporting character communicates the message of the movie to the lost & searching main character (and to the audience). Nice production too. Worth the labor.

what a gorgeous soundscape. absolutely love the instrumentation under your vocals- also such a beautiful vocal performance. your vocal has such a nice timbre. such a yearning song, love it!!!
