Song Lyrics: “Broken Bread”

Song Lyrics: “Lifeboat”
“I wrote the song ‘Lifeboat’ after reading a number of accounts of people who had been lost at sea. Some were simply sailing along and a freak wave came out of the darkness and left them treading water far from home, not sure of their fate. I read stories of great heroism and the triumph of the human spirit. The stories and accounts really resonated with me on many levels.” [Photo Credit: Ivana Cajina]
