Thanks for your kind words, Brian! Yes, my bro & I wrote a couple dozen songs together in the 80's. Most were done on a 4-track cassette recorder. Here's one we did in the studio: http://schicksville.com/Bridge%20the%20Gap.mp3

Lyrics (always my brother's):

Bridge the Gap
by John Lawrence Schick & Robert Schick III

(Not human - it not fair - you human - but not me)

Amidst the trees I
I feel your breeze I, I, I
I hear your voice
Among the cluttered city noises
Can’t escape
The spell you cast on me
But you ran away not knowing
Not knowing I had sensed your way

Bridge the gap oh bridge the gap
I don’t need a lover’s map
To bridge the gap to bridge the gap
I don’t want this one-way trap so
Bridge the gap oh bridge the gap
Build a span so love attracts
To keep this seething love intact must
Bridge the gap we’ll bridge the gap

(Where are you? Might be floating by or beneath the sea
illusive like eternity, eternity)

Tension mounts, I, I, I
I seem to be exploding
Somewhere inside
My mind reminds me I am human
And what are you?
I can’t quite pinpoint you
Where you’re at, you, you
Might be an alien at that

(Repeat Chorus)

(What are you? I don’t care - something beyond love,
Could not compare)


(Not human - it not fair - you human - please love me)
