One Blue Sky
Ben Bruce
They cut us in pieces like American pie Everyone is fighting for their own slice It's old advice from Roman times Before you conquer you must first divide It doesn't matter if we agree I affect you and you affect me So let's raise a glass, yeah raise em high We are one under one blue sky If you want to dance, dance Make your fighting stance your stance Everyone must practice what we're preaching to have a chance So let's raise a glass, yeah raise em high We are one under one blue sky And if we return to dust And truth be told whatever comes we must There will be no one to mourn or cry But the world will keep on spinning under one blue sky

Thanks to my family: my son pushed me to start this record; my daughter knows every word (and gives hugs when needed); and my wife's advice and encouragement are invaluable -- on this project and in life. I love you all. My favorite parts of these endeavors are the parts that aren't mine; I'm a lucky man to have worked with master musicians and engineers on this project. Thanks to RL Heyer, who takes my simple songs and turns them into something special. Making music with you is one of the great things I've done with the time I’ve been given. And thanks to those who listen. Without you there is no song. I hope you enjoy this music and that it inspires you to action today. There is no other time! - ben
