Bricks Of Love – The Music Video

Last October, Joanne and I went to my parent’s house for Thanksgiving. While we were there my dad was telling me about the ‘movie’ function on his digital camera. Hmmmmm…. movie function…. this gave me an idea!


The next day, Jo’ and I took the camera and my guitar for a nice walk through the autumn coloured landscapes of the surrounding countryside. We had a lot of fun capturing some video footage that I was hoping would one day become a music video… and it did!

With the help of a friend I am pleased to announce that this video has finally been edited and uploaded to my youtube account – for all the world to see! I hope that you enjoy this musical adventure and do feel free to share this link with your friends -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVcQiXq9qhI .

Here are the lyrics for the song – in case you would like to sing along…

Bricks of Love

We’ll always reap the seeds we sow
When we’re layin’ down the bricks
Layin’ down the bricks
Our love will shine when it’s peace we grow
Yeah! We’re layin’ down the bricks
Layin’ down the bricks

Hope is………
Mortar……….

The road we rode quickly turned asunder
And now we’re frightened
By the rain and by the thunder

We’ll build a house for the world to share
When we’re layin’ down the bricks
Layin’ down the bricks
With no more crying or despair
Yeah! We’re layin’ down the bricks
Layin’ down the bricks

Hope is………
Mortar……….

The road we rode cracked, split and fell away
And now we’re building
Towards a better way

We’ll clean our windows so that we can see
Ohmmmmmmmmmm
All the love and joy that’s still to be
Ohmmmmmmmmmm
We’ll open all our doors to let the good spirits in
Ohmmmmmmmmmm
And then we’ll dance and sing – yeah – we’ll rise above the din
Ohmmmmmmmmmm


Hope is
Layin’ down the bricks
Mortar
Yeah we’re dustin’ off the rusted bricks

The road we rode had many casualties
When all the money men
Yeah – they fell to their knees

Layin’ down the bricks
(fade)

We’ll always reap the seeds we sow

Enjoy everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jim
