THIS COULD BE YOUR DAY!
David M. Bailey In Concert
The New CD!After 12 years and 17 CDs of making music hailed for its lyrics, David listened to his fans who had been urging him to do an instrumental album. He called together a few of his talented friends for a weekend in a mountain cabin. They got there Friday night and left Sunday morning with aching fingers and a mountain of music. 5 guys, 7 guitars, 1 mandolin, 1 dobro, 1 fiddle and a few harmonicas, 1 bass and no words. All notes. The results were amazing. Here is David's latest song and he was gracious in allowing me to share it here with you. I hope it makes Your day!
This Could be Your Day
by: David M. BaileyEver had a day when you feel a little broken?
Like your story has been told before you’ve even spoken
I don’t know why I’m asking I already know the answer
Everybody’s had those days - feels like your heart has cancer
And you’d do almost anything just to stop the pain
Born under a dark cloud and you can’t stop the rain
But you don’t have to drown in troubled waters
You can let the waters wash you clean
Someone’s making breakfast on the shoreline
This could be your day if you know what I mean
Ever had a day when you feel a bit dejected?
Like you’ve given all you got but still end up rejected
I don’t know why I’m asking, the answer is so clear
Everybody has those days when you just can’t fight the fear
And you'd do almost anything just be be set free
The storm on the horizon is all that you can see
But you don’t have to drown in troubled waters
You can let the waters wash you clean
Someone’s making breakfast on the shoreline
This could be your day if you know what I mean
I know everybody makes mistakes
The heart is the easiest thing to break
But if you can give more than you take
You can find the good for goodness sake
Ever had one of those days when you just don’t feel like trying?
When you’re walking in the dark and the dream feels like it’s dying
I don’t know why I’m asking I know what you will say
But that doesn’t change the fact that this still could be your day...
So you don’t have to drown in troubled waters...

not being sure what a dobro is,
assuming it's not a type of male bra,
it's nonetheless confusing to see
instrumental music,
(described as "without words")
presented with lyrics,
albeit inspired lyrics indeed.
and yes, you made my say.
er... you made my day. :)
You always support Michael! :)
Dari: David's story is one of tremendous inspiration for so many. Thanks as always for your very generous comments and lol!
Hi Seraphine: lol! The Dobro is a resonator guitar manufactured by Gibson. The instrumental CD came out, then David returned to songwriting and shared his newest song here. Glad it inspired! :)
Morning, Patti: I hope so! Smiles to You! :D
This was nice...I really enjoyed it! Thanks for your recent comments on my blog..so nice of you to stop by!
Excellent lyrics there.
Yup, that's good stuff! I need to check David out more closely.
Jess: Smiles to You!!! :)
jean-luc picard: Yes, David has so much soul!
Bud: David is a very peaceful, layed back friend and I know you'd appreciate this quality. He lives "in the moment" and encourages Peace. :)
I shall check it out.
