Everything 04:47
The Lord come walking up to me Lord said everything was right Lord came walking up to me  Lord said everything was right But everything ain’t right tonight No, everything ain’t right tonight Love came waltzing up to me  Love said everything was fine Love came waltzing up to me Love said everything was fine  But everything ain’t fine tonight  No, everything ain’t fine tonight Faith came smiling upon me  Faith said, “She will be your wife” Faith came smiling upon me Faith said, “She will be your wife” “She will be your wife, tonight” Oh, she will be my wife, tonight Everything is alright  Everything is alright  Everything is alright  Everything is alright…

Can you feel my love It wasn’t long ago That this sickness tore our love’s afterglow  And what was black and white Has turned to shades of gray How I long to hold you in a simple way How I love you, yes I do, I need you How I love you, and how I do just need you Lord, get me through this day Another lonely stay Wrestling with fatigue to find some other way  But things just get so tight  For there’s no end in sight Just to mask up and pretend it’ll be alright  How I love you, yes I do, I need you How I love you, and how I do just need you Oh, how I love you, yes I do, I need you How I love you, and how I do just miss you So many lives now lost and turned When will this sickness burn?  Leaving us to understand... To understand so many lessons learned  To hold your loved ones close To laugh and make a toast  To never take for granted time with the ones you love the most Without you by my side Praying through this lonely ride... Just to make it through another night How I love you, yes I do, I need you How I love you, and how I do just need you Oh how I love you, and how I do, I need you How I love you, yes I do just need you How I love you...

Blue Moon 04:21
Blue moon on my wedding’s eve Blessed Mother can you see me Here on my knees tonight  Here in your sacred light No amount of dark can take the thankfulness from my heart tonight Blue moon on my wedding’s eve  Blessed Mother can you feel me Here in your grace tonight  Here in your holy light No amount of dark can take this thankfulness from my heart tonight  Oh, no amount of dark can stop the faithfulness in my heart tonight Here in your holy light Bathed in your grace tonight Oh, no amount of dark can dim the light inside my heart tonight  Blue moon on my wedding’s eve  Love and mercy have found me No amount of dark can take the thankfulness from my heart tonight  No amount of dark can stop the faithfulness in my heart tonight Oh, no amount of dark can dim the light inside my heart tonight And thanks to your sweet love two hearts will become one tonight Blue moon…

I could be the one you love I can see your light above I’m too close to heaven I’m too close to heaven  If you looked into this man  If you took what’s in my hand  You’d see I’m too close to heaven  Just too close to heaven  It’s so hard when your running scared  Seems so far though you’re standing there Take my hand walk this way with me I can make it rain I can set you free I’m too close to heaven  I’m too close to heaven  I’m too close to heaven  Just too close to heaven  Because it’s so hard though you’re standing there And it seems so far when you’re running scared I’ll take my chance but do you see me You could heal my pain if you just see me But I’m too close to heaven  (Will these angels ever let me go) I’m too close to heaven  (Will these angles ever let me show) I’m too close to heaven  (On and on we go… Don’t walk away) Just too close to heaven  (Learn to see me in another way) I could be the one you love If you could just see my light above Will these angels ever let me go Will these angles ever let me show On and on we go don’t walk away  Learn to see me in another way

“I AM” You say To never fail No one at all to remove the veil Open your eyes to the light of the Son A life of desire my beautiful one Never to touch to look and say We’ve come so far from our yesterday Your hand in mine The perfect trine Two worlds are one  Forever done And for one moment we stood to stare At how this life holds a secret dare To understand that it comes from within We create our worlds love, hate and its sin  I cast my stone  Into your throne We move and grind  In true waltz time If we could just stay forever like this  Embraced in our love and in one last kiss To never steal from each other’s graves To give only love and live what we make What we make… “I AM” You say To never fail No one at all to remove the veil… Your veil of difference

Hey there alcoholic angel with your Cheshire grin It’s so easy for me to see the trouble you’re in Lonely nights in the dark you stay  So starved for affection it hurts to see you this way You’re lost and worn down like old tire tread  With that bottle of wine what goes on in your head The kindest of hearts for a child’s freedom you sang You’re an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread And gone be that dream you had in your head And gone be the fire of your rhythm, instead… Just an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread Just an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread You laugh through the tears and the thoughts in your head You cry with the fears of the ghosts in your bed And never mind all the promise that broke you, instead… Just an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread  Gone be the dream you had in your head  And gone be that fire of your rhythm, instead… Just an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread  Just an alcoholic angel that’s so full of dread And as the rain pats it’s rhythm on your window sill You look into a new day so unfulfilled  And gently turn the dial of your ignorance… On all that’s worn thin and the trouble you’re in On all that’s worn thin and the trouble you’re in On all that’s worn thin and the trouble you’re in

Sugar in wine Syrup in tea Inside every heart there’s a child to set free Sugar in wine  Syrup in tea I must admit the mix is setting me free The mix is setting me free For man life is a bust All ego desire Objectification and lust Life’s little tripwire  Oh, but sugar in wine This syrup in tea I must admit the mix is setting me free Your mix is setting me free Running from the darkness ‘neath a clear blue sky Stare into the vacuum of the ego eye Look inside its dark But don’t believe its lies  Sugar in wine Syrup in tea  Inside every heart there’s a child to set free Sugar in wine Syrup in tea I must admit the mix is setting me free Your mix is setting me free… Sugar in wine  Syrup in tea Inside every heart there’s a child to set free Go on and set him free… Set him free

Stone Angel 06:31
An old man takes her away  A young man needs her to stay The black sky covers the shame The moonlight exposes the pain There’s crossroads against the fields  Timeless venture behind the wheel  The black skies cover your shame The moonlight exposes your pain Stone angel what’s your name Stone angel what’s your game There’s children off running in time  Their secret’s like fruit from the vine The black sky it covers their shame The moonlight exposes their pain Stone angel what’s your name Stone angel what’s your game A dark hall leads her way A staircase calls her name A secret she’ll never reveal  A trouble she’ll refuse to feel Stone angel tell me your name Stone angel tell me your game

Listen Kid 04:37
Can you see the wisdom in his eyes Beyond the years that have passed your father by Listen kid it’s a short and lonely life Without his love and the lesson it holds inside Can you see the wisdom in her eyes Beyond the years that have passed your mother by Listen kid it’s a short and lonely life Without her love and the lesson it holds inside And now the evening wind is at your back You raise a toast to the memory of their past Still deep inside it’s only questions that you find And with regret all your wasted time Listen kid One needs to know the wisdom of the saints As plainly shown by your hearts constraints  Beneath the veil that you choose to wear Hides the love and light your so afraid to share How silently the time with your elders begins to pass  Such idle banter and no real questions asked Upon their grave a tear now falls down from your face So many years death has now replaced So listen kid because the hour is getting late Learn to forgive and don’t give into hate Time now has passed leaving shadows in your mind  It’s peace at last that in His mercy you will find  Listen kid

It’s a life awry my darling, it’s a life like nothing else You work all through the day, at night you pray for something else And you learn to walk away, yeah, you learn to move on through All the fears you hold inside and the stress that burdens you… When your hurt gets so bad you remember what the heart sings  Yeah, when your life gets so sad you remember what your heart brings I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” You’ve got to share all the love in your heart… You’ve got to share all the love in you heart as much as you can I cry, “Ooh, dream with me!” Yes, I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” Ooh, dream with me… I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” It’s a life of heart my darling, it’s a life like nothing else You’ll wake to a new day and look within to find yourself  And you’ll learn to cast away all the fears you hold inside Yeah, you’ll learn to move on through when the tears they fill your eyes ‘Cause when the hurt gets so bad you remember  And when your life gets so sad you’ll remember what your heart brings I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!” I sing, “Ooh, dream with me!”

Chapters 04:23
There’s a light burning bright in New York City There’s a light burning bright in your chest And though the world has grown dark and kind of gritty  It’s the light in your heart that knows best... yes These chapters go on and on and on The lesson grows strong strong strong  These chapters go on and on and on These chapters... These chapters  But I see the light… In your heart burning bright tonight  There’s a man, there’s a woman, there’s a child There’s a knife, there’s a gun, there’s a hand And though the world has grown dark and kind of wild It’s the light in your heart that understands... yes How these chapters go on and on and on The lesson grows strong strong strong  These chapters go on and on and on These chapters... These chapters roll on and on and on Your lesson grows strong strong strong  These chapters go on and on and on These chapters... These chapters  But I still see the light…  In your heart burning bright Yes I can feel the light In your heart burning bright tonight There’s a light burning bright in New York City There’s a light burning bright in your chest…

Treehouse 04:37
Treehouse, treehouse… I met her at the church on a Sunday morn’ And ever since that day it’s like I’ve been reborn  She was kneeling there praying in the pew And when I took her hand that’s when my heart it knew That somewhere in the sky waiting high above was this little treehouse baby full of love Treehouse, treehouse… There’s butterflies swirling ‘round the flowerbed  There’s butterflies baby landing on your head I’ve got a black crow chasing me now all day long  And he’s making real sure that I hear his song That somewhere in the sky shining high above is this little treehouse baby full of love Treehouse, treehouse… Me and my love… walking in the park Me and my love… kissing in the dark Me and my love… oh, let me take you there Me and my love… a place I’d like to share That’s waiting in the sky honey high above it’s this little treehouse baby full of love  Let’s go kissing in the dark Let’s go kissing in the park Kiss me kiss me near or far Kiss me baby in the car We’re somewhere real high now in the sky above In our little treehouse baby full of love  Treehouse, treehouse… (That’s right…) Treehouse, treehouse… (Feels good… give it a little Roy Orbison now)  Treehouse, treehouse… Let’s go one more time Don’t matter if I’m working baby on this song Don’t matter if it’s raining honey all day long Our love it takes us out there dancing in the street Our home’s a place to share our little sweet retreat That’s shining real bright now from up high above It’s our little treehouse baby full of love Treehouse, treehouse… Don’t matter if I’m up here baby singing this song Don’t matter if it’s raining honey all day long Our love it takes us out there dancing in the street Our home’s a place to share our little sweet retreat That’s nestled real high now in the sky above It’s our little treehouse baby full of love No don’t matter that I’m up here baby singing this song  Don’t matter ‘cause I’m up here rocking all night night night long! Family’s up and dancing baby to this beat Our neighbor’s out there shouting honey in the street ‘Cause rocking real high now from up high above  It’s our little treehouse baby full of love  Treehouse, treehouse… Yeah, rocking real high now from the sky above It’s our little treehouse baby full of love 

about

Veil of Difference is the second album from Luis Moreno, a singer/songwriter from Los Angeles, California, now residing in New York. It was inspired as an answer to the “emotional call” he felt the world was crying for in this new age of unprecedented isolation and disconnect.

Rooted in the genres of alternative/rock/pop/folk and devotional, the album's songs are a testament to raising awareness to the simplicity and beauty of Luis's life’s mission: emotional intelligence and true heart connection.

Songwriter’s note:

The lyrics, “Let’s go one more time...” and the vocal stylings that precede them are an expression of my love for Roy Orbison and his 1961 version of the rockabilly classic “Mean Woman Blues” written by Claude DeMetrius in 1957.
