A Gathering of Angels














What: Gathering of Angels

When: October 2007

Where: Jerez de Frontera, Spain



The fine granules of pepper white sand squeezes through between my toes, walking along the playa (beach in Spanish) de Jerez and taking in the soothing Andalusian breeze, you just can’t help but be caught in the moment like a gathering of angels.


This riff is actually an old one, I came up with this when I was a bigtime Pearl Jam fan in the late 90s. I remember Mike lovin it, and saying that I should write the lyrics based on something about life. Didn’t really have anything that really worked, until now;


There are things that I didn’t tell you that I wished I did before,

Like the magical quilt that I see in your eyes as you walk in though that door,


It’s the color of inside, at the moment I’m in,

It’s the lost conversations trapped deep within,


It’s the color of moonlight and stars up above,

It’s a gathering of angels tonight.


Often times when we least expect to have the strength to weather on,

We reach deep in ourselves and we pull out the faith that’ll forever change our song,


It’s the color of inside, at the moment I’m in,

It’s the lost conversations trapped deep within,


It’s the color of moonlight and stars up above,

It’s a gathering of angels tonight.
