    If you want and deserve more, this is the package for you. Imagine it: I will sign your CD, add two of my favorite Chinese snack foods to your order and give you a tour poster featuring the album cover artwork.

    About the snacks: Do you like when sweet and salty meet? I will send you two "Kiss-burn" snacks. What is it? It is a meatless jerky made from gluten. That may not get you excited on its own...but the spices? Divine. Your mouth will delight with the perfect blend of sweet, salty and a hint of spicy. You are getting two because immediately after eating one you will think, "I can't wait to eat the other one later." 'Later' will be moments later when you think, "Oh hell, I want it now."

about

I consider this to be one of the best songs I've ever recorded.

This was the first song I wrote for a student. I was desperate to help her at a time I knew her heart was completely broken by the passing of her father. It is written from the perspective of her father, telling her how much he loves her and how proud of her he is.

lyrics

Oh my girl where should I begin?
I’m so proud of what I am seeing.
So patient, gentle and kind
I’d tell the world you’re mine.

Your soft words and caring hands
It takes no imagination to see where you’d land
A loving mother, a teacher I could see
Oh you’ve left no doubt in me

You’ve seen me lower than I’d like
It’s hard to show strength when you’re losing a fight
But it has shined a light—in me

It’s alright now—let me go
Our precious summer has set the tone
No more struggle---just family
There ain’t nothing more important to me

Surrounded by mountains of green,
Is a brown eyed girl I’m certain loves me
My daughter where ever you go
That is something you should know…
