From the recording Another Place
This collection of songs was recorded in Anguilla, British West Indies, in February 2026, following four months of preparation. The project was conceived as a collaborative effort between a U.S.-based artist and Anguillan musicians, serving as a model for future partnerships at AMA Recording Studio while helping promote the nonprofit AMA Center on the island.
Another Place
Songs tend to fall into familiar categories—love songs, protest songs, stream-of-consciousness pieces, and more. When I was younger, it felt like love songs were all I could write, which makes sense in hindsight. I’ve generally avoided protest songs, as they often feel tied to a specific moment in time. Over the years, my love songs have evolved—less about idealized hope and more about the lived experience of life itself.
I see my past in a positive light, and each day brings something new to draw from—things I hear, see, and feel. This song, in particular, is shaped by the music I’ve loved, blended with memory and the warmth of summer. I’m drawn to those quiet, cinematic moments—music drifting down a street from somewhere unseen, the pull of something mysterious just out of reach.
Sometimes writing a song feels like writing a screenplay for a film that only I can see. Maybe, in some way, you can see it too.
Lyrics
ANOTHER PLACE -CARY MORIN (BMI)
AS THE NIGHT TIME ROLLS AROUND
THE HEAT DON’T SEEM TO CHANGE
I CAN HEAR THE MUSIC PLAYIN
SOME WHERE DOWN THE WAY
IT’S A FARAWAY LONESOME SOUND
SOMEHOW READING MY MIND
IN THE HEAT OF THE FADING LIGHT IT FINDS
WHAT I WANT TO SAY
IT'S YOU I’M THINKING OF
IN THE DARKNESS OF THIS SPACE
BACK WITH YOU IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER PLACE
I REMEMBER WHEN WE DANCED
EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE REARRANGED
I BELIEVED WHAT YOU WERE SAYIN
WAY BACK IN THE BRIGHTER DAYS
WITH NOTHING BUT THE STARS ABOVE
THAT TIME COULD NOT ERASE
MY DREAMS OF YOU
IN A NEVERENDING EMBRACE
IT'S YOU I’M THINKING OF
IN THE DARKNESS OF THIS SPACE
BACK WITH YOU IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER PLACE
IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER TIME
IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO SAY TO ME
BUT CANNOT FIND THE WAY
IS THERE SOMEWHERE YOU’D RATHER BE
WHAT COULD BE BETTER THAN TODAY
DID WE LEAVE A FAINT TRACE
OF A FEELING LEFT BEHIND
IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER PLACE
IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER PLACE
IN ANOTHER TIME
IN ANOTHER PLACE
IN ANOTHER TIME
ANOTHER PLACE…
