Vol. 76 “Me”- Gram Vitale

2014-02-22 190725  Pic 4 - Copy

I was fortunate enough to have my Gram in my life for 30 years.  What a treat, a joy and a most wonderful influence she was.   Meet Gram in this past installment, Volume 4 Click To Hear “American Ingenuity”

The last five years though were her slipping away…losing the battle to Alzheimers.  It’s 15 years ago this week I said good-bye.  Today I share the song I wrote for Gram “Me” that I penned back in 2003 and just finished recording this version.  I dedicate this song to everyone who has seen the devastation of Alzheimers and to everyone who is dedicated to finding a cure. Thanks for listening!  Happy days…

Me

Gotta face it alone
Can’t find my way home
Left to drift and to roam
It’s just pieces to me

And I can’t pretend to remember
What it is I’m lookin/livin/waitin for
And I can’t seem to find myself
In a song where I know the score
People I have know
And all the places I have been
They’re just a distant memory/melody
What is it that’s happened to me?

What’s waiting & where
No sense left to care
I’m in whose company
What’s happening to me

Through the thick muddied haze
Still a glory of days
To keep dignity
You took good care of me

Thanks for listening!  Happy days…

Click To Play “President” Written And Recorded By Jerry VItale

President

And I And Me, And All The Scenes I Never See
I Try I Try To Be, All The Things You Need From Me
I Cry I Believe, In The Voice Inside Of Me
Alive I Flee, From The Fear Surrounding Me

And In Time We Will See, A Mortal Man Down On His Knees
Sometimes Despised Sometimes To Cling, To The Emptiness Oh How It Rings
Alone At Night And Time It Creeps, I Reach For Friends That I Didn’t Keep
Live In A World Live In A Place, Can’t Imagine All The Things We Will Face

And Destiny Holds Mystery, And Mystery Uncertainty
But To Change Just One Thing, Effects The Rest The Way It Reigns
Live To Breathe Sigh Of Relief, A Lonely Man What Does He Seek
By And By Just To Compete, Is It Getting Through Or Getting Weak

I Guess That’s Life, Some Left For Me
I Guess That’s Life, What’s Left To Be
What’s Left To Be
