One of my dearest friends, Kenny Leverett and I were talking a few months back about a phone conversation I had with another old friend who said ‘ I’m not the man that I wanted to be’.
Well it became the seed of a song - we tried a rock version then a country version, neither seemed right.......fast forward months later he sent me this version _ This is the ONE!
I have a few lines in it...and am proud to have helped bring it to what it is now. - Enjoy

Leverett/Kenney
A friend of mine once told me he’s not as kind as he wanted to be
All I could think of was neither am I
On the road for so long put my faith and trust in song
All I could see was just getting by
Leading a life of quiet desperation
Hoping for a spark of inspiration
Knowing that it ends too soon
And feeling as lost as the man in the moon
In the moon
A friend of mine once told me he’s not the man that he wanted to be
All I could think of was neither am I
Days go by and before you know it's another ten years down the road
Can't help the feeling it's passing me by
(instrumental)
Leading a life of quiet desperation
Still hoping for some spark of inspiration
Knowing that it ends too soon
And feeling as lonely as the man in the moon
In the moon
Man in the moon
