about

Meridians is the first single off the new Brothers Yares. Check out the use of the lute's grand daddy, the oud, on the track -- a true merging of east and west....

lyrics

You were all, I nearly ceased to be
Left me here, less half of me
Gone so long, I travel on
Lost in ways, maps don’t respond
So, won’t you speak to me my meridians
Tell me where my place should be

From east to west, I slide along
Slipping my way, I can’t hang on
Traction’s attraction is easy to grasp
But with torque so strong, the engine moves on

So, won’t you speak to me my meridians
Tell me where my place should be
So, won’t you speak to me my meridians
Tell me where my place should be

Dancing destinies, twirl and pirouette
I don’t strive to be a dancer
But there’s rhythm in my feet
Still a few more beats, a time change at best
I still have time before I rest

Still l’m searching for that someone to play with me
Don’t need to be a shuffle or two step set
Just hold my hands we’ll be free as the jazz
The music’s ripe for picking, just extend you hand

So, won’t you speak to me my meridians
Tell me where my place should be
So, won’t you speak to me my meridians
Tell me where my place should be
Tell me where my place should be
