maybiize asked: My beautiful daughter Eloïse has heard your almost equally beautiful song (smile). We love this song and would like to learn it. Could you post the lyrics. (I am lame at guitar but will try to figure out the chords - unless you could share that too???) It was a pleasure discovering your music. Mary, mother of Eloïse

Not only does this touch my heart, but also my soul. It brightens my day to hear that my music can touch so many beautiful people out there, to me there’s nothing that can compare.

At that point in my life I did not write down any of my music, just recorded and came up with it on the spot. However, after reading your message I took the time to pull out my guitar and write down all the chords & lyrics. I hope you sing this to your daughter always, thank you for kind words and appreciation.

G                         D                        C                        G            

I was a young boy when our eyes did meet

C                         D                        C                        G

You were my neighbor my friend you see

G                         D                        C                        G            

We threw pebbles in the old creek

C                         D                        C                        G

Abandoned our good shoes and ran in bare feet

G                         D                        C                        G

And as we got older my dear Eloise

C                        D                        C                        G

I fell in love your love is so sweet

C                        D                        C            D

What do you feel when you look in to me

C                        A7

Oh my sweet Eloise

G                         D                        C                        G

Now we’re much older my love I confess

C                         D                        C                        G

You’ll walk down the aisle in your mothers dress

G                         D                        C                        G

I’ll never stop loving you any less if you just say yes

EM                         A             A7                        D

I’m still falling for you….

C                         D                         C             D

What do you feel when you look into me

C                        A7

Oh my sweet Eloise

EM        A            A7     D              G

I’m still falling for you

Waltz In Love - (Original)Song By: Ryan Escalante

Lyrics

Take me in your arms again

And I don’t know this if you know it but you are my only friend

Take my hand and I’ll go where you want me to go

We can take a walk but lets take the long way home

And I know you’ve been hurt but I’m not like other men

Well love can make you stupid but I never want to loose you again

And I’m such a sucker and you lead me on

Well I think I may be right but then again I could be wrong

I can’t stop myself from loving you

Tell me what to say

Show me what to do

Let’s lay under the stars and we’ll look to the sky

Well I look to you and you gaze into my eyes

Every time you touch me I feel like I could melt

I used to hide away my love but somehow you let it out

I’m such a sucker for a sad love song

And I’ll listen to it over and over all night long

And tomorrow always comes to soon

I’m waltzing in love

I’m dancing on the moon

You’re The One - Original Song By: Ryan Escalante

Brand New - Original Song By: Ryan Escalante

Anonymous asked: in response to earlier Q's. thats sooo crazy! my cousin introduced me to ur music and told me u were on saddle creek! lmao my cousins a liar jk but keep up the good work. i (and my friends and cosin lol)will be listening;)

You know I’ll take it as a huge compliment even if he was mistaken because I would be honored to be on Saddle Creek, or to even be mentioned with the label. 

I’m so thankful for my fans, I really count on you guys for motivation. Recently I haven’t had any time to work on music which makes the little time I do even harder to make something. I promise to have more music as soon as my schedule’s easier and I can sit down and create again.

Until then it would be so greatly appreciated if you spread the word of my work. Take care my friend.

Jump The Gun - Original Song By: Ryan Escalante 

Lyrics

You want to run before you can walk

Sing me a song before you can talk

You wish to preach what you don’t believe

And you long to dream before your asleep

You want to fast forward a life you cant get back

Then pause and rewind and reminisce of your past

But that’s just a con, a scheme you have made

You’re face is your mask, but this mask you can’t trade

And it seems that you want everything you can’t have

Your insatiable appetite will only make you sad

But don’t take it from me who am I to say

What is and what isn’t, what direction’s the way

You say that I’m young, ignorant, and naive

Because I have felt what you’ll never see

I’ve learn to accept what is and what’s not

Comprehend what I know is never enough

That don’t mean it’s the end though don’t mean it’s not true

That you can’t be fulfilled with an unwritten truth

And should I be wrong then the sky should turn grey

Then I will turn mute with the write words to say

But I don’t wish to fly because I do not have wings

And I won’t bite my tongue, when you’re shoutin’ at me   

I just recorded a new folk song; who’s ready to listen?
