Lost In A Moment - Harlan Mark Vale March 22, 2022 Lyrics The sound of gravity I taste this idea forming  Fragrant geometric showers I am pulled towards life All the shuffling people Murmured voices flutter past No one looks into you caught up in dark wool of this chiseled face Lost in a moment  I can see it in the air  Lost in a moment  Where everything is there This hurry will never resolve I’ll not grasp the end of it The wheel keeps spinning While chasing after nothing I Dare to show this weakness Dare I show this fear I deliver from surrender I deliver pure love Lost in a moment  Dawn of the Clairs I treasure this feeling Knowing is to understand I am guided by her voice Bright as the noon day sun Cheerful and truthful  Every night is a silent peace Touched by sunlight  It’s love is my food  I reach in to find me And there you are Struck by the colors I feel the time move by Your presence is right here  I listen to what you have to say  Lost in a moment  I am clear  I am here with you I reach in to find you Where I have been all along, …you Lost in a moment  Held in your hands I treasure this feeling Knowing is to understand I am guided by her voice Brighter than the noon day sun Cheerful and truthful  Every night is a silent peace Lost in a moment  I am here with you Lost in a moment  Held in your hands I treasure this feeling Knowing is to understand Lost in a moment  I can see it in the air  Lost in a moment  Where everything is here And there you are

about

Hello Everyone,
Here is my latest album called, Astrolabe I. It is a collection of songs and explorations from 2022. These compositions are influenced in one way or another by using vocals more in the writing process. They appear in a traditional sense as with Lost In A Moment or drive the progressions in Near You. They lend themselves to melodic lines in Ballad Blues or in an abstract forms of channeling voices from Arrival.

This album in particular is presented here for all as a document that summarizes 2022 as a year of “that’s just the way it is”. I did not labor over the music for hours to sculpt the original ideas any further as I would have normally. But I felt it important enough to share my path with you in this release.

I sincerely hope that these new compositions involve and resonate you while using your own astrolabe, sextant or compass which helps guide you on your way through the worlds.

Be Well

Harlan Mark Vale
