From the recording Hello Sky!
<p>In this original mix I recorded the needle drop of my record player onto one of my favorite childhood records - KISS' Ace Frehley solo album from 1977 (the year I was born). The drum loop comes off of the track "New York Groove".</p>

Welcome rain Welcome anything that I could never change Goodbye friends, you’ve sure been good to me But until I learn to change my ways Deserve the things that come my way I’d rather find a hole and climb inside I’ll keep on trying </div>

<p>Words and Music by: Daryl W. Dasher</p>
<p>I don’t know the reason for The way that I’ve been acting</p>
<p>I guess I’ve just been hungry for</p>
<p>A little reaction From the one that I hold closer than</p>
<p>A baby holds its mama when it’s scared </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I wish I could explain away</p>
<p>Things I do, things I say</p>
<p>The way I skate in circles around</p>
<p>Every situation I can’t bare</p>
<p>So ‘till I’m there </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hello sky! Welcome rain</p>
<p>Welcome anything that I could never change</p>
<p>Goodbye friends, you’ve sure been good to me</p>
<p>But until I learn to change my ways</p>
<p>Deserve the things that come my way</p>
<p>I’d rather find a hole and climb inside</p>
<p>I’ll keep on trying </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now I don’t need a reason for</p>
<p>The things that I’ve been after</p>
<p>Like a little more hope A lot more laughter </p>
<p>I can tell you now the things I do </p>
<p>Aren’t hurting anybody if myself </p>
<p>I wish I could just melt away</p>
<p>Things that glue, things that stay</p>
<p>And set my wings a sailin’</p>
<p>O’r waters I was sure would never dry</p>
<p>But one more time </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Freedom like the blood</p>
<p>That rushes steady through my veins</p>
<p>I can’t live without it</p>
<p>And without it we are so mundane</p>
