FOREVER CAME TO CALL by Ann Mayo Muir

I am constantly trying to reconcile this enormous division within myself as one part of me confronts the physical pains of aging while mentally feeling years younger. My conversation with "Forever" was deeply satisfying and
comforting to me. I wrote it in order to begin healing that divided place within me * AMM ( find lyrics below )
"Forever Came Call" is written and sung here by Ann Mayo Muir playing her baritone ukulele. This title was changed since the making of this film. With a lovely spare accompaniment by Carolyn Anderson Surrick and Sue Richards members of Ensemble Galilei, and special guest Tom Mitchell on guitar, this was one of 7 songs Ann performed at the 2010 concert for her new collaborative CD "NOTES FROM ACROSS THE SEA."
The CD is a gorgeous collection of instrumentals written by Ann Mayo and performed by Grammy-nominated ENSEMBLE GALILEI (EGMusic.com).
Ann is known as a singer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist who performed with the beloved folk trio "Bok, Muir & Trickett" (Timberheadmusic.com) for nearly 3 decades, releasing more than 10 CDs.
Thanks to Christina Muir, who performs with the harmony vocal trio, HOT SOUP! (HotSoupTrio.com) for making the CD and concert happen.
You can sample and buy "Notes From Across The Sea" online at AnnMayoMuir.com.
Thanks also to Film Maker, Leslie Diamond, for taking this footage.

LYRICS
I always thought that I'd stay young forever
When forever came to my door.
"What ever made you come calling today
When I've years of tomorrows in store."?

He smiled and asked if I valued my Dreams
That were sent and were meant as a sign.
I always believed that our dreams would come true,
So I pay close attention to mine."

To nurture yourself on the true foods of life
lay them carefully out on the ground
Eat well from the portions of wisdom you seek
Drink deep the lessons you've found

Then he told me to sing and be happy
Said he'd be back in a while
Forever is never in a hurry
He mentioned to me with a smile

Now for my prayers and I'll close my eyes
And whisper " sleep let me fall"
Back to the dreams that wait for me
Till Forever comes to call.
