Haruki Murakami - on 3 String Cigar Box Strummer and Native American Flute

This is track 6 from my new album Simplify, which you can hear in full here https://bemuzic.bandcamp.com/album/simplify

There's a video about the home made Cigar Box Guitar that I'm playing here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TapvaILapFc

I made the Native American Flute from black bamboo

LYRICS

Can you hear the wind singing
in a world so fresh and clean?
You put two moons up in the sky.
Is it all a dream?

The rain was falling Sunday morning
on the unforgiving ground.
We drank two more cups of coffee,
then you got up to leave.

Take me south of the border
where the rules have all been changed.
Mixing mundane with surreal.
Is it all a dream?

Inst

The books I’ve read are on the table,
same old records on a shelf.
I pick one out without seeing,
lower the needle to the groove.

Can you hear the wind singing
in a world so fresh and clean?
You put two moons up in the sky.
Is it all a dream?

that was beautiful,  almost haunting when you close your eyes and listen but still a tone of hope and strength... thanks for sharing Im just starting composing music and this is an amazing  depiction of different layers working together

Love the song and the flute, and it really fits with the video, recycled or not.
