I'm more of a songwriter than a performer...it's the creative writing process I love. This is a collection of basement song demos I've assembled over the past few years. Most are pretty simple & straightforward, usually a couple of acoustic guitar tracks and vocal. I'll be adding songs as time allows. They tend to be family or nature-oriented, and focus on parenting, family life and related foibles. Hope you're into it. Also, I do commercial voice overs. If you're in need of a smooth baritone voice with distinctive tone and balance, I'd be yer guy. ;-) You can find me online at VoicesOnCall.com & Voice123.com. I'm also a freelance advertising/marketing copywriter, broadcast producer and strategist. Stop by my www.timperrycreative.com if you're so inclined! and Audio Production for Any Size Project

Lyrics
Smile For The Ages Timothy A. Perry © 12/05/2001 Verse 1: Every day’s a challenge. Every step upon the floor. Every night she fights To keep the goblins from her door. Her tears come down in torrents But they never last for long. For her soul holds many troubles But her heart knows many songs. Verse 2: She makes her friends so easily. There’s something in her eyes That sees some inner beauty When the cynic sees a lie. When her heart is thrown in turmoil Crashing hard upon her sleeve. She latches onto someone Finds a reason to believe. Chorus: She’s got a….. smile for the ages. Even when the world has got her down. Every day, she turns the pages. She finds the strength to hold her ground. Verse 3: Her face takes in the sunshine And her eyes reflect the stars. Her head is filled with music And she sings with all her heart. She loves with no condition And she laughs until she cries. Her footsteps may be heavy But her spirit’s free to fly. Verse 4: I stand here in my wonderment Wishing that I had Her kind of wide-eyed trust That finds the good among the bad. My heart is hers to keep Forever joined, forever sure. For in her smile I see Forever young, forever pure. Chorus: She’s got a….. smile for the ages. Even when the world has got her down. Every day, she turns the pages. She finds the strength to hold her ground. She finds the strength to hold her ground.
