    “.….Eldridge takes a break from the Stones infected throbbing of the band (Steelesque) and floats out on his own cloud of introspection in an album deceptively melodically svelte, all the while harboring a lyrical intimacy that pampers the intellect with its complexity, called Rooms Full Of Gardens…….he sprouts his lilting songs that pack the punch of a Nietzschean aphorism. It’s a delicious slither of a record, nectar sweet, slipping and sliding around the mind, even as it evokes a toe-tapping simplicity….Under the master rubric of observation, a veritable aquarium of ideas swim through the warm sunny streams”

down my neck with melted specks... comes days once new...words they come and often spew...i look for wood- bearing bronze strings...to start the fire- to reach candela....not too bad- for an old fella...sip and sound -and swoosh around....a cup of up- and half full down...no time to share- as i often do… the advice from me is arrowed to you...the tension of bow the sky so blue...some days so different... the weeks the same....pulled all together... by the reign of rain your feelings are mine... and geostrategic...feeding my hungry and curing my sick...i sit in a chair- and you in another...telling you tales -of my heartsick brother...weight off the chest...the blankets inside...warming the wood- is what you provide...for that i am grateful...better than dead...i'll pass you the key- to our joint owned stead… i worried about... a certain vaccine...there is no disease.. there is no mean..some days it's different...today its the same....pulled all together by the reign of rain..

rooms full of gardens and gardens full of rooms 2x’s watch it all unfold from hot-aired-balloons 2x’s (chorus)frequencies and dials and transistors radios- government satellites and corporate videos I have no TV set at all cos I make call yea I make the call vs1-kudos you say to my new found ways- your looking to live and line up the days- i said my goodbyes to life’s commercials -fallin from balloons and wind-blown circles-don’t force feed me- allow me to be-i’ll make my own news yea you wait and see-having the choice i’ll take the static in life- free of the program and free of the strife (chorus) (bridge) i’m soaring so high my ears start to pop- i’m saying “please go slow but don’t ever stop” 2x’s vs2-looking for spark-i look to the mind-it’s never lost it’s easy to find-there’s never a break it’s like color TV-designer of art is all i wanted to be-step outside and go outta bounds- portrayal of different in a common crowd- painting with blue from the color man- exploring the people i don’t understand. (bridge) i’m soaring so high my ears start to pop- i’m saying “please go slow but don’t ever stop” 2x’s

no need for a turn signal- yea i know where you're going- i learned this yea just by living- my life it can’t sit down- when all i’m doing is standing up- i know i can never look back- cos thats just not the way i’m going- chorus: maybe i can reverse the sun - maybe i will turn back time - maybe i won’t run- maybe i will turn out fine- maybe i’ll reverse the sun - maybe i will turn back time - maybe i’ll weigh a ton - but you can bet - the weight’s all mine- the weight’s all mine- the weight’s all mine vs2- got life behind us- got living ahead- but what’s within us- we’ll take to our beds- you seem so lost- so what’s the rush- may be the only way - that we’ll find us- no need for power- when it’s paired with fear- guess that’s just the way that it’s flowing- you know some trails are best made- on our cheeks by our tears chorus: Reverse the Sun (repeat)

who do you favor today? i’m an overcast in the morning—and quite radiant by noon—but now i’m french and without warning—we’ll be holding hands with the moon—you wouldn't like all the time same-you couldn't fight a man with three names- sitting a mixed state (2x’s) bridge: i found out - that i love you three times— it’s gotta mean something right? common sounds in a wind chime—we always share the last night turn: restlessness pokes a sleeping mind (2x’s) vs2 i can’t keep it at bay— the stirring little mice running about about- wandering and using little hands -to mold their day and do away w/ doubt the journey follows footsteps in the sand—do your feelings triple when you have three names?—is it warmer when you light three flames? sitting in a mixed state- a schizo in a mixed state… bridge: i found out - that i love you three times— it’s gotta mean something right? common sounds in a wind chime—we always share the last night turn: restlessness pokes a sleeping mind (2x’s)

VS1 It’s not what you stare at – it’s more what you see Knee deep in the different – our knees shake in the streams I’m considered rich with my wants being cheap Pockets full of stubborn – is all that you keep Chorus: Doesn't matter if you feed the wolf So feed the wolf It's never enough, never enough And walk through his woods Doesn't matter if you feed the wolf To a soft bed of pine It's never enough, never enough Fingers through fur, so wild to the touch, together you’ll dine VS2 Beneath all the skin – time flows through the heart The fabric is wider and no seams come apart Our feet walk to meet but stop at locked doors It’s all set adrift in a boat with no oars

In Open E VS 1: B to G# a tired miner -with a pocket full of gold- not a care in the world- as he heads way back home- such a simple life- ever so mundane-walking through life with a mahogany cane- Chorus: E D C# B no urge to discern life’s tempting spice- but a knock at the door can scare the white- right off rice- VS 2: now he’s walking- his legs won't move- he has rapid breathing -never yielding to that smooth-now he’s looking- but he doesn’t.. really see- he likes… lying in the woods staring up through the trees. Bridge: D# D VS 3: He listens to his people- although he doesn't hear- her voice..echoes in his head- like waves lapping off the pier- she arrives.. in his thoughts- in a sturdy palanquin- tonight.. his clothes are majestic only fine tailors spin Last Chorus: no urge to discern life’s tempting spice- but a knock at the door can scare the white right off rice- now its there-past his out stretched fingertips- tea from the orient- the kind you know you like to sip
