50 that are on FIRE!!!!

The best of Singer Songwriter and Chansons Ausgust 2019

Try not to dwell on the tough times.  So many good things in  life
to reflect on -- a good woman, birth of my babies, them growing up
and moving on, friends and family for support.  Ah, keep your
heart on fire!

My Heart's On Fire  (Original)

World Gone Bad - Words & Music: Pravinand Maharaj

I was born downtown on a bed of rats
From a dirty faced kid to a mean ol’ cat
Mama said son you look just like your dad
It’s hard being good in a world gone bad

Don’t wanna go where I don’t want to be
Don’t want to say what I don’t really mean
What a lowdown rotten life I had
It’s hard being good in a world gone bad

Gonna pull up my boots
Pick up my cane
Put on my hat
Get on the road again
Hit that trail before the break of dawn
You can wait all you want but baby I’ll be gone

Some get their kicks in the back of a hearse
Some drink blood just to quench their thirst
Me I’m on the edge going mad
It’s hard being good in a world gone bad

Don't Go Down To The River - Blues (Lyrics/vocal by Tony -  Bob Warner on the Guitars) Original

Borderland  - Words & Music: Pravinand Maharaj aka Johnny Minstrel

There’s a wire fence running east
Keeping Eden out of bounds
And he speaks unto the least
Like a Sermon on the Mount
And as the living often do
Find a million ways to die
I was born loving you
A truth I still deny

It’s my inheritance they say
A house with many rooms
But I be homeless night and day
Until I’m in the tomb
Behind that solid door
Something else lies in
And when you open up you know
It was the same old thing

Now you and I we learned
That freedom’s golden chains
Caused Paradise to burn
And we both took the blame
Still shaken from the fall
And I can’t get back up
They all are prison walls
Everything I touch

I’m crawling through the sands
To the setting sun
Into the Borderland
Where shadows overcome
Into the Borderland
Where shadows overcome


Borderland

Many thanks to my friend Bob Warner for all the work on this track. He sure put the petal to the metal on this one.

Brenda – Words & Music by Pravinand Maharaj 

Showstopper, pill popper
What’s it all about
Bad weather coming down
The fans sing and shout
Cry heaven, earth in ruin
A battle won and lost
Somewhere up a Muslim moon
Somewhere down a Christian cross

And oh it’s a situation
A bad situation

Survivor, revive her
She can’t die again
What will we do without her
The last link on freedom’s chain
Cities fall, madmen rise
Fear everywhere
Kids learn the facts of life
From bigots who don’t care

And oh it’s a situation
A bad situation
Oh…it’s a situation
A bad situation

Singing sweet and strong
Weeping deep and long
What voice comes to you today?
Singing sweet and strong
Weeping deep and long
What voice comes to you today?

And oh it’s a situation
A bad situation
Oh…it’s a situation
A bad situation

Laid to rest, she was the best
To her grave alone
With every song she ever sung
To find a way back home
A lone wind calling, sirens howling
Somewhere someone screams
If we could lay our weapons down
And like her start to sing

Down Where The Sage Winds Blow
Words and Music by Pravinand Maharaj

You took a long drink from the cup of truth
Squeezed fresh from your favourite fruit
Picked ripe in the misty woods
Down where the sage winds blow

People live and people die
You made a point of staying alive
Can’t always see it with the naked eye
All you got to show

Easy smiled the face you met
Who knew what’s beneath the flesh
Laying low behind its breath            
The things you never saw

It’s a rat race out there I hear you say
 A leaky roof for a rainy day
Nothing more could make her stay
You knew she had to go

You can’t freeze ice on a burning flame
You can’t be called by another’s name
Can’t build a wall without a frame
On which to hang the door

Easy smiled the face you met
Who knew what’s beneath the flesh
Laying low behind its breath            
The things you never saw

Night falls and shadows play
Beneath a mocking moon
You can’t help thinking the mark of Cain
Was but a lover’s wound

You took a long drink from the cup of truth
Nocturne birdsongs play like flutes
From the tree of the forbidden root
Down where the sage winds blow

Where the boughs of promise stood
Down where the sage winds blow

Down Where The Sage Winds Blow

RAIN (Acoustic Ver.)

lyrics:

patsy stays in place waiting out the rain
but it all turns to ice right before her eyes

a doctor's lonely heart trying hard to start
said "take your medicine and never lose a drop"

and we found our own place right beneath the trees
said "baby go away but do it as you please"

well patsy broke my heart but didn't start it hard
her eyes are painted red and glowing in the dark

Patsy!

Words Written, Song Produced and Sung by Robert Horne (Angry Knights)

Lyrics:
I ask myself whose really in charge
I need someone to yell at and it can't be hard.
The governments around the world are out of control
They think they own the land and seas and all our souls

How did this come to be and what have we done
Their absolute control while we don't pay attention
The truth hurts more than you can see, cuz it's all about you and me
Forced to be separated, what happens when we are congregated.

God forbid we work together ?

Kick the bullies out of office and make this world better
What could we accomplish, if we put our heads together
Borders are for bullies and not for families
My family has a voice, let's put the bullies on their knees

My brothers and my sisters
are from other mother fathers
I will stand and fight for them
even though we're different colors

I will not bow my head just cuz my government said
while their corporations strip this world and put it on our heads
I will not take a knee and pretend that I can't see 
You are mine and I am yours and we are family!

One Voice, One Heart, One family!

fight for this, fight for that, let us all go to war
Follow in our forefathers footsteps until we are no more
Turn I Can'ts into I Cans and all  our dreams into our plan
Instead of fighting for some land, let's fix it ! hand in hand.

Together!  Together You and Me, Bother! Sister!  Family!!

Kick the bullies out of office and make this world better
What could we accomplish, if put our heads together
Borders are for bullies not for families
My family has a voice, let's put the bullies on their knees

My brothers and my sisters
are from other mother fathers
I will stand and fight for them
even though we're different colors

I will not bow my head just cuz my government said
while their corporations strip this world and put it on our heads
I will not take a knee and pretend that I can't see 
You are mine and I am yours and we are family!

One Voice, One Heart, One family!

One Voice, One Heart, One family!

One Voice (Rock)

Every Day
-N-
Every Way

I am so in love with you!

Was a day
much like any day.
Took a trip
long overdue.

Hit the road
for a week or so.
Had no clue
what fate would do.

Set up camp
just past Mill Creek Dam.
Cause it had
a good review.

I found you there
that one Summer where
all my hopes and dreams
came true.

Every Day-N-Every Way
I have been
in love with you.

Are you the answer
to my prayers?
Do I stand a chance
with you?

Country aire.
Flowing auburn hair.
Eyes that shine
like morning dew.

Flash that smile
with your magic wiles.
Every heart
will start anew.

Every Day-N-Every Way
you have known
just what to do.

Say you'll be mine
forever more.
Every road
led me to you.

Each day, always
I have been in love with you.

So, here we stand
facing hand in hand.
It's your turn to say I do.

Seal this plan
with a silver band.
Today my hopes and
dreams come true.

Every Day-N-Every Way
God has shown us
every clue.

And here today
He'll have his say.
You and I,
a life brand new.

Every Day-N-Every Way.
I have been
in love with you.

You are the answer
to my prayers.
I am yours
from this day thru.

Each day.
Always.
I will be in love with You!

I will be in love with You!

Texte Français et Google traduction

QUELLE VIE JE VIS

J’ai bien souffert, je peux le dire
Une misère, voire même pire.
De la méfiance en l’être humain
Ce manque de chance quand çà vous tient.

Les tromperies, fruits du hasard,
Ont faient ma vie rester en noir.
Des coups bien durs, d’autres assez bas,
Font les blessures qui n’guérissent pas,

J’dis plus mon âge, il est certain,
Nombreuses pages, un long chemin.
Il reste encore pour qui le veux
D’ici ma mort, des jours heureux.

Je ligne mes yeux au crayon noir,
Je fais d’mon mieux pour me faire voir
Si j’en ajoute, trop quelquefois
C’est que mes doutes sont toujours


Quelle vie je vis

Je vais m’écrire dans cette histoire,
Et même vous dire que quelque part,
Ce monde malsain où vivent les grands
Refuse ma main quand je leur tends,

Cherche couleurs, plutôt pastels,
Du chaud au cœur, y’a rien de tel,
Sur une palette à mélanger,
Je voudrais être du verbe « aimer ».

Quelle vie je vis

Toutes ces traces qui m’ont marquées,
Ont prises trop d’place dans mes pensées
Quand je regarde autour de moi,
Je sèche mes larmes pour pas qu’çà s’voit.

Tous mes espoirs sont restés vains
Rien que d’y croire me fait du bien.
Je cherche encore, je cherche toujours
Rien n’est plus fort que de l’amour.
Qu’ai-je bien pu faire pour être ainsi,
Sinon me taire et puis tant pis,

WHAT LIFE I LIVE

I have suffered well, I can say
A misery, even worse.
Mistrust in the human being
This lack of luck when it holds you.

Deception, the fruits of chance,
Have my life stay in black.
Very hard shots, others quite low,
Do wounds that do not weal,

I'm older, I'm sure,
Many pages, a long way.
It remains for who wants it
By my death, happy days.

I line my eyes in black pencil,
I do my best to make myself see
If I add, too much sometimes
That's because my doubts are always


What life I live

I will write myself in this story,
And even tell you that somewhere,
This unhealthy world where big people live
Refuse my hand when I give them,

Seeking colors, rather pastels,
From warm to heart, there's nothing like it,
On a palette to mix,
I would like to be of the verb "to love".

What life I live

All these traces that marked me,
Have taken up too much space in my thoughts
When I look around,
I dry my tears for not seeing it.

All my hopes were in vain
Just to believe it makes me feel good.
I'm still looking, I'm still looking
Nothing is stronger than love.
What could I have done to be so,
Otherwise shut up and then too bad,

QUELLE VIE, JE VIS (Vivre seul)

Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocal, Guitar and Mix by Phillip Clarkson

WHEN I WOKE UP IN THE MORNING
IT WAS THE FIRST THING THAT I SAW
SITTING NEXT DOOR TO MY HOME
WAS A REMINDER OF RIGHT AND WRONG

CHORUS
I WAS RAISED IN THE COUNTRY
NEXT TO A COUNTRY CHURCH
AND EVRY SUNDAY MORNING
I KNEW I WOULD BE GOING
THEY SANG AMAZING GRACE
HOW SWEET THE SOUND
IN THAT LITTLE COUNTRY CHURCH

WHEN UNCLE SAM CAME CALLING
I HAD TO ACCEPT THE CALL
ON HER KNEES MAMA PRAYED
IN THAT LITTLE COUNTRY CHURCH

(REPEAT CHORUS)

PEOPLE CAME FROM ALL AROUND
TO SING THE GLORY DOWN
AND IT'S WHERE I MET JESUS
IN THAT LITTLE COUNTRY CHURCH

(REPEAT CHORUS)

THEY SANG AMAZING GRACE
HOW SWEET THE SOUND
IN THAT LITTLE COUNTRY CHURCH

Our Days  6/17/2019
All rights reserved

One more time 
All the things that matter in our hearts and minds
will unwind 
When our days are done...

If I could find a way to get to you
A way on through your door...
Pull the curtain that surrounds u now
To the place you were before  

Every minute is a symphony
Ringing like a bell..
The dust collects upon the window sill 
As sure as time will tell

One more time 
All the things that matter in our hearts and minds
will unwind 
When our days are done...

The evening brings a wealth of tragedy
Will it ever ease...
Discontentment seems beyond repair
need my shoes upon the street

One more time 
All the things that matter in our hearts and minds
will unwind 
When our days are done...

Our Days

Lyrics:

She is a mountain in the rain
Strong as an ox who’s in pain
From her erosion, rivers are made
She is a mountain in the rain

She cries to her lover on a sunny day...

"Adelaide, I didn’t choose to be this way
What if they find out, baby I’m afraid
Adelaide, I don’t wanna live this way

But with you, I feel fine,
I’m so in love, you’re so my kind
I had a dream we ran away,
on a nice day just like today
to an island we felt safe,
to a world without hate
Adelaide, lets go find that crazy place"

Some songs just set a mood and feeling.  It was written in 1964 by 
Gordon Lightfoot and released in 1966.  It has been recorded by 
many artist to include Bob Dylan and Elvis.  I really like Jerry
Reed's version.

SOMETIMES HER BEAUTY
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
CAUSE SHE BELIEVES IN ME
THINKS I DO NO WRONG

SOMETIMES A PICTURE
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
IF IT PAINTS A PRETTY PICTURE
IT MAKES YOU SING ALONG

SOMETIMES THE SUMMER RAIN
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
THE SOUND OF THE RAIN DROPS
CAN TAKE  AWAY THE PAIN

SOMETIMES GOD'S KINDNESS
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
I PRAY THAT MY LYRICS
BRING SOME HAPPINESS

(CHORUS)
DON'T KEEP THE WORDS INSIDE
LET THEM BREATHE…LET THEM FLOW
LET YOUR HEART BE YOUR GUIDE
DON'T KEEP THE WORDS INSIDE

SOMETIMES A MEMORY
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
COULD BE A BAD ONE
THAT CAUSED SOME MISERY

SOMETIMES A ROAD SIGN
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG
ABOUT A SMALL TOWN
MY TIME TO MAKE IT SHINE

SOMETIMES OUR FREEDOM
INSPIRES ME TO WRITE A SONG 
ABOUT OUR COUNTRY
CAUSE FREEDOM'S NOT FREE
NO, FREEDOM'S NOT FREE

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Lyrics:

I am a ruin by riverbeds
I disappear in dreams inside my head

Let the world wait
Hold the heartache
I will lose my mind

Find you own space
little earthquakes in the fading light

do do dooh

The world's on fire 
and skies burn red
But still we steal the air
and take another breath

All your tides are gonna turn
All your tides will turn

Hold you high
to the skyline
I'll be right behind

Find my own
Leave the heartache
Leave it right behind

Oh your sorrows will subside
Oh we run towards the night

do do dooh

Let the world wait
hold the heartbreak
I will take my time

Find your own space
Little earthquakes
in the fading light

Hold your head high
To the skyline
I'll be right behind

Find my own
Leave the heartaches
leave them right behind

All your tides are gonna turn
sing like you've never seen the sun

Tides will turn

Yes, we need a little Faith 
Oh Yeah, Faith
We need it to walk this world 
We need a little Faith
Maybe, we’ll find a shell with a shiny pearl?
And, if we have Faith…..
Will we trust in things we haven’t seen?
Oh, Faith
Why, some people need theirs laced 
…….with just a little green
(Chorus)
Anyway….
Find something to believe in
Find a way…..
Keep pushing along
Maybe, that’s the way
We keep our spirits strong
(Bridge/Verse)
Takes courage to just let go
Even though deep down we surely know
When the unexpected becomes all too real
Why…Don’t let yourself forget to feel

Sim, precisamos de um pouco de fé
Oh sim, fé
Precisamos que ande neste mundo
Precisamos de um pouco de fé
Talvez, encontraremos uma concha com uma pérola brilhante?
E, se tivermos fé ...
Vamos confiar em coisas que não vimos?
Oh, fé
Por que algumas pessoas precisam deles?
…… .com apenas um pouco de verde
(Refrão)
De qualquer forma….
Encontre algo em que acreditar
Encontrar uma maneira…..
Continue empurrando
Talvez seja esse o caminho
Mantemos nosso espírito forte
(Ponte / Verso)
É preciso coragem para deixar ir
Mesmo no fundo, certamente sabemos
Quando o inesperado se torna real demais
Por que ... não se esqueça de sentir

LYRIC VIDEO - https://youtu.be/vwbtcn1SWsE

She looks from her watch to the loud ticking clock
then at the pink stick em note on the calendar in her hand
Retama park it says, in big bold black letters
six P.M, May ten, and it’s signed sam
Though it’s barely two , she says ” I can’t leave this room.
There’s so much to do & Sam, Sam will be here soon

In a pastel of colors, hair neatly brushed
ready & waiting, cool breeze on the dust
She moves from the window, to the open door
then back to the same stare in the same spot once more
Not glancing at the row on strangers hanging in her room
moves back to the door cause Sam, Sam will be here soon
(Sam will be here, Sam will be here, Sam will be here soon)

CHORUS
She doesn’t know what year it is
Where that woman in the mirror lives
She only knows Sam will be here soon
(Sam. will be here, Sam. will be here, Sam. will be here soon)

In a garden of flowers, beyond the windowsill
honeybees suckle until they get their fill
A thousand times over, the window to the door
she glides like a skater, cross the hardwood floor
No one passing by can tell you why she stays in her room
singing oh so softly “Sam….Sam will be here soon”
(Sam. will be here, Sam. will be here, Sam. will be here soon

A Cover Version of a CCR-Fogerty Classic. This one also features the fabulous Sax Sounds furnished by Makavox, a most gifted musician and a kind Collaborative friend. Thank you, Maka! :) Made the whole song sound so much better. I was really 'missing' that Sax from the CCR-Fogerty versions. This was a wonderful addition. Greatly appreciated.

Homme invisible
dans ta chambre un soir
je me glisserai pour te voir
violation de domicile
sans idée d'homicide
j'y viendrai quérir
de mes souvenirs
la saveur acide.

Homme invisible
dans ta chambre sans bruit
je me glisserai à la nuit
des indivisibles
ombres du nombre
la mienne sera retranchée
telle une ancienne tranchée
cachée sous les décombres.

Homme invisible
dans ta chambre en visite
je me glisserai dans ton site
dans ton home visible
dans la chaleur de ton duvet
ton corps doucement remuer
je regarderai muet
je regarderai muet
je regarderai
sans contre toi me lover.

Homme invisible
de ta chambre je partirai
quand la nuit viendra à se retirer
douce et paisible
alors tu t'éveilleras
respirant mon parfum volatile
erreur d'homme invisible.
La nuit suivante tu veilleras...
Erreur d'homme invisible...
La nuit suivante tu veilleras...

Homme invisible [Dan-T & Lukowig]

Original Lyrics by Tony Harris (a little Hot Rod fun during these troubled times)
Blues Music by Bob Warner

I WAS A BIT BORED
WHILE CRUSIN' ONE NIGHT
IN MY OLD 31 FORD

AND THEN I SAW A GTO
WITH IT'S PIPES BLASTIN'
I KNEW IT WAS ALL SHOW

HE WAS LOOKIN' AND SMILIN'
AND WE SAW NO COPS
SOON, OUR TIRES WERE SMOKIN'

WE RAN SIDE BY SIDE
FROM RED LIGHT TO RED LIGHT
MAN, HE WAS HURTIN' MY PRIDE

AS HIS LIGHTS WERE FADIN'
OUT OF NOWHERE
BLUE LIGHTS WERE FLASHIN'

THE COPS CAUGHT THE GTO
AND I KNEW HE WAS IN TROUBLE
HE HAD NOWHERE TO GO

ON THE OUTSIDE OF TOWN
I HID BEHIND A CHURCH
WHILE MY NERVRS SETTLED DOWN

THE DRIVER OF THE GTO
SPENT THE NIGHT IN JAIL
I WAS LUCKY DON'T YOU KNOW

YEA, I WAS A BIT BORED
WHILE CRUSIN' ONE NIGHT
IN MY 31 FORD
THEN I SAW A GTO
WITH IT'S PIPES BLASTIN'
I KNEW IT WAS ALL SHOW
YEA, I KNEW IT WAS ALL SHOW

IT'S JUST MADE OR MADE FROM LOVE OF YOU
INTO THE WORLD IT GROWS BECAUSE OF TWO
AND THE LOVE HAS BEGUN WHEN YOU SEE THE LIGHT
YOU'LL BE HAVING SO MUCH FUN
GROWING IN THE EYES OF LOVE
YOU WONT HAVE TO MAKE A CRY

IT TAKES TWO TO MAKE THE WORLD GO AROUND
AND THE WAR BEGINS BUT THERES NO SOUND
AND THE SUN HAS GONE DOWN, I STILL SEE THE LIGHT
YOU WONT HEAR THE BABY CRY 
AND LAUGHING IN THE NIGHT
AND THERE WONT BE TWO
(chorus)
I WANT TO MAKE IT, WANNA MAKE IT COME TRUE
I WANT TO MAKE IT ALL THE WAY HOME BY YOU
I WANT TO MAKE IT, WANNA SEE IT COME TRUE
I WANT TO MAKE IT ALL THE WAY HOME WITH YOU

I first heard this tune from the great Tony Rice (bluegrass flat picker). I immediately wanted to pick it and I immediately realized that I was no
Tony and just could not keep up with him.  I still love this tune and had to slow it way down and adapt.   Just picking and singing.

Do you think we’d do anything differently…..
When It’s all over?
Oh, Maybe, we’ll make a whole new start….
Or, will we just begin where it all ends?
(Chorus)
Oh, Yeah!
Oh, don’t you know?
You simply must Keep the Love 
Let it flow and let it always grow
Oh, Yeah - Deep within your Heart….
There’s been so much sadness
And, It’s lasted far too long
Oh, but you know we stole a little gladness
And we did our best to seem strong…Oh, Yes, we Did….
And, When it’s all over, will we survive?
Overcoming this unseen Enemy
As we learn to better understand
Will you remain a Friend to Me?
And, if you need, I’ll lend a helping hand
Don’t You know?
Oh, Yeah!

Você acha que faríamos algo diferente ...
Quando tudo estiver acabado?
Ah, talvez, vamos dar um novo começo ...
Ou vamos começar onde tudo acaba?
(Refrão)
Oh sim!
Ah, você não sabe?
Você simplesmente deve manter o amor
Deixe fluir e deixe crescer sempre
Oh, sim - profundamente dentro do seu coração….
Tem tanta tristeza
E durou muito tempo
Oh, mas você sabe que roubamos um pouco de alegria
E nós fizemos o nosso melhor para parecermos fortes… Ah, sim, nós fizemos….
E, quando tudo acabar, vamos sobreviver?
Superando esse Inimigo Invisível
À medida que aprendemos a entender melhor
Você continuará sendo meu amigo?
E, se você precisar, eu ajudarei
Você não sabe?
Oh sim!

Just "Takin' It Easy" while playing Breedlove Acoustic-Electric and decided to record Instrumental SongShot. Eagles-inspired insanity. ;-) For anyone that enjoys creating and sharing music, have fun and keep it real. Do your best, even when it's just sharing a simple contemporaneous mix of a song sketch or idea. Some will like it, some won't, so what? Next. Life is short. Be true to yourself. Nothing wrong with "promoting" certain projects and songs, but we all know Numbers are simply 'Just Numbers' and don't, necessarily, always define success on SoundCloud....or anywhere else, really. Mostly all depends upon what we each define as "Success" for each of us. ;-) Cont'd Best Wishes to all! Thanks to anyone that listens and shares their comments. Always genuinely appreciated. "YOLO KOKO"!....As Quincy Jones used to say, You Only Live Once.....Keep On Keeping' On! :D))))

A tribute to Susi Lawson - SusiSoulJourney

Lyrics that inspired Riff are below.

WHILE DRINKING MY COFFEE			
I WAS READIN' ABOUT SUSI			
ON HER SOUNDCLOUD SITE			
ON A COLD RAINY NIGHT			
			
SHE'S ONE OF THE VOICES			
OF THE TENNESSEE MOUNTAIN'S			
HER NEVER ENDIN' DRIVE			
KEEPS THE MOUNTAIN MUSIC ALIVE			
			
(CHORUS)			
THE MUSIC RECORDED BY SUSI			
BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN US			
FILLS US WITH TENDERNESS			
BRINGS US A LITTLE HAPPINESS			
			
SUSI'S A LOVER OF MUSIC			
HER SOUND IS POETIC			
HER VOCALS ARE REAL			
WITH A DOWN HOME FEEL			
			
IF YOU'RE UNWOUND			
GIVE SUSI'S MUSIC A LISTEN 			
HER LAID BACK SOUND			
COMES FROM HER HEART			
			
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Burnin’ Love ©
Riff Beach Original 
RiffWerx - 2021
I love you now
And I loved you then
I loved you way back when…..
Everything was shiny and new
You know I had a Burnin’ Love for You
(Chorus)
It’s like a Hurt without the Pain
Like the Wet without the Rain
Like a Fire without a Flame
(Yes) Yet, it keeps on Burnin’ just the same
My Burnin’ Love for You
My Burnin’ Love for You
Oh Yeah, My Burnin’ Love for You
(Bridge)
For what is love if it blows away….
On the slightest windy day?
Do you think we’ll ever regret
All the things we should just forget?
And over all those years
The laughs, the hugs, the tears
We held on through thick and thin
Then, I loved you all over again
Oh, I loved you all over again
But, My Love still burns for You
And, My Love still burns for You
