about

I started writing this more than 10 years ago after a trip to the USA and finished it a year or so later with Nicki Rogers. It still feels true to life for Rachel and I, so our 25th anniversary seemed a good time to finally release a finished version of it.

lyrics

December

I wonder why December always takes me by surprise
I never seem to keep a track of time
Watching as the tail lights of the year go rushing by
Memories come drifting through my mind

Counting up the miles along the road that brought us here
Every twist and turn we never planned
Providence, coincidence, some things look so clear
And others I will never understand

We've been down this highway many times
Chasing dreams between the white lines
Since I can't remember when
Maybe there are mountains left to climb
But the view on the other side
Is always worth it in the end
Say you'll be there with me
When December comes again

Tomorrow's gonna find us in a different state of mind
Standing on the edge of the unknown
Bottle up the goodness baby, leave the rest behind
You'll never have to make it on your own

We've been down this highway many times
Chasing dreams between the white lines
Since I can't remember when
Maybe there are mountains left to climb
But the view on the other side
Is always worth it in the end
Say you'll be there with me
When December comes again

Every road, every mile, never alone
Every road, every mile, never alone

about

Dan Wheeler image

Dan Wheeler Franklin, Tennessee

For the past 25 years, I have been fortunate to have written, recorded and performed on stages and studios on four continents, working with singer-songwriters, folk troubadours, worship artists, TV shows, and all stops in between.
Much of my time is devoted to playing on other artists' material, so I'm putting together a little collection of my own.
Hope you like it! ... more
