Have you noticed the older you get, the more prone to tears you are?  Do you cry when you see birthday candles being blown out by complete strangers in restaurant celebrations?  What about weddings?  Awards bestowed?  College diplomas being handed out at graduation ceremonies?  Funerals, for sure.  Life is precious.  It is so easy to take it for granted, and to think that it will go on forever.  Two weeks before my mother passed, I saw my father take in the scene as we sat at the dinner table; Mitch, Mom, Dad and I.  I saw a 'blink' moment, when Dad realized this would be the last time we would be together as a family.  I have tears in my eyes writing about it now.  Memories.  Poignant moments.  We need to savor them when they happen; laughter, tears, tenderness, togetherness.  To store them up for the time after.

Gurf Morlix is sometimes zany, sometimes rocking, sometimes introspective.  This song is one of the latter, an acknowledgement of the cycle of life.  A testament to the love and commitment of two close friends, it's an example of the divine inspiration songwriters sometimes experience when they act as the vessel for the message.  Gurf.  "Voice Of Midnight."
