    "Life As A Lover" is my new album, produced by JUNO nominee Howie Beck. It's a collection of songs about relationships, family and living life fully. The CD comes in a lovely gatefold card case, with artwork and design by Cheryl Cheung and photography by Emma-Lee. Includes a lyric booklet. The design was achieved by getting ink prints of my hands and manipulating them.

lyrics

It’s been a few years since we rested our heads on a pillow
I’ve been a soldier for the single fellows

If I stay this lonely
and my search is never through
if I stay this lonely
am I saved for loving you?

I know I’m living my life, I’m making my way without you
and I feel like a stranger to have sung about you

But if I stay this lonely
and my songs don’t ring this true
if I stay this lonely
am I saved for loving you?

If I were to call on you tonight
I know that you’d be there
But I’ve got to keep on until daylight
and try not to be scared

It’s goodbye to all of the homes I saw in you through the light time
it’s goodbye to the boy who never knew the night-time

But if I stay this lonely
and my search is never through
if I stay this lonely
am I saved for loving you?
