Subject: for Wotcha! Lyr Somewhere Along The Rd.
Wotcha!
Came to Cornwall recently and we managed to visit and sing at three of our local pubs. He performs a mean shanty and took us by suprise with some different versions of familiar songs.
Here's one of the songs you asked for Brian.

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE ROAD by Tim Hart

Somewhere along the road,
Someone waits for me
Beyond these present storms that moan
Waiting patiently
No secrets held in an open heart
The spirit that soars over mountains
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me

Somewhere a guiding light
Always shows the way
To those who lose their way by night
Searching for the day
The day away from happiness
v Tomorrow will bring a new sunrise
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me

Sometimes when winds are still
Unexpectedly
Perhaps beyond this silent hill
A voice will call to me
Raise your eyes and see my world
Raise your voice and sing out
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me
Somewhere along the road
Someone waits for me

This song although written by Tim Hart while doing the chores and waiting for Maddy to come home can be used in a different way.
Marion and I sing this in chapel and whenever we do it fills me with a renewed confidence.
