May the light pour into your dreams, you are BEAUTIFUL.” This song is for those struggling not only to live, but just to exist. It is for those trying to find their fit or their place be it on the pitch, the athletic field, on a rainy city street with water bending and shaping light, or in a wide-open space under a billion stars. This song is also for everyone, young and old. As I began to write lyrics I would always end up with the guitar in my hand.Īfter much duress, I conceded to the fact that this was going to be a straightforward rock song, paying homage to all who have inspired me (thank you). I came up with a melody on my banjo and started working out chords and rhythms on my guitar. Initially in this case, though, it was banjo and pen. The thoughts and ideas for this song making their way to guitar and pen (thanks Pete Townshend) are inspired by our daughter’s journey. Growing up in a rural area can pose even greater challenges for a kid who chooses this path. They make great strides, they suffer heartbreaking disappointments, they play through pain, and some are faced with making life decisions, especially when trying to find a fit in a college or university.

She played some basketball, ran some cross country and track, and even kicked some extra points for her high school football team. ‘Bright Lights’ is for our daughter.įrom the age of 4 or 5, we have watched her play soccer. As with most parents, my wife and I are very proud of our kids and how they are shaping their lives to create their own futures. “ Over the years I have written songs that were inspired by our son. Here is what Bryon McMurry (writer, vocalist, lead guitar) has to say about his song, Bright Lights:
