This is a Raw recording of this song which captures the emotion of the moment and I decided to leave it as is due to sentiment.   
The heart wants what it wants..  ☀️🌻
Three things remain: Hope, Faith and Love.. but the greatest of all.. is Love.     

Lyrics:

I know you’re tired love
You ache in your bones
You walk home alone..
But i’ll  be here when you walk through the door
In my arms you will be reborn

You question all things love
But love never fails
You ask how you got here
Yet the road we all take is the same
But I’ll walk by your side all the way

Love never fails.. Love
Just open your eyes
And when you are falling
I’ll swoop in like a Robin each time

Our heaven is here love
in each others arms
You’re mine and I’m yours love,  
every thought, every kiss, every moan,
rise again through the love we have known

Love never fails.. Love
Just open your eyes
And when you are falling
I’ll swoop in like a Robin each time
Oh Love never fails..  My Love
I’m two steps behind..
And when you are broken
I’m your Angel, I’ll heal you each time,
Love never fails … My Love.
Love never fails..

Love Never Fails

This one evolved a lot and kind of became a power ballad I think. It reflects the position some of the children of the world find themselves in and was inspired by a couple of excellent Irish charities and their stories. I hope it is meaningful it is meant to be, lyrics below.

Because, you’re a girl. Your chances are none and you won’t get to school.
And you, marry young in life. And live without a clue.
Your life, on streets all day. It all just seems so cruel.
We all, need to change. And smash those barriers through.
Chorus:
And nothing changes, it’s the view from below.
There is no first step for you, the view from below.
You’re born in dust to see the view from below.
And from your cardboard bed it’s the view from below.

Too many to count. Kids on streets with no roof to call their own.
Alone, the violent cycles we ignore or just condone.
Your cries, hungry, cold. So lost and all alone.
We can, no longer turn our heads. We must atone.
Chorus
Bridge:
And the world turns
Your turn won’t come
How can we learn.
Chorus.

Lyrics:

Gnawing on my bones tonight,
the teeth of a winter’s cold
Shivering narcosis
and naked on the floor
Hazy snowflake symphony 
Heartstrings plucked with icy nails
Dressed in dreams, this jezebel 
Did she slip me the pill?

Am I sleeping, am I dead?
Well, here she comes again
Hold my breath and count to ten
Hope I let no demons in

Whispered incantations
Words like heroin
No more am I shaking
Sweet oblivion 
I lie here staring into 
her eyes of frozen lakes
My godless soul trapped underneath,
yelling out my name 

Am I sleeping, am I dead?
Well, here she comes again
Hold my breath and count to ten
Hope I let no demons in

Am I sleeping, am I dead?
Well, here she comes again
Hold my breath and count to ten
Hope I let no demons in

Hope I let no demons in
Hope I let no demons in

Hope I Let No Demons In

This song is a similar theme to "fold yourself away" and written around the same time 💜 

Silence inside me

So small my hand in yours,
as you lead me to the door.
My body's not my own,
in my fist a perfect stone.
Focus on the line of light,
imagine everything's alright...
Silence inside me.

And the stars replace themselves, memories are left on shelves.
Always honouring the name, nothing left to hide the shame.
Focus on the line of line, fold up small and out of sight.
Silence inside me.

Piano standing in the dust, broken things all full of rust.
Play the music from my soul, lifts me from the dark and cold, Focus on the line of light, until it fades out of sight..
Silence inside me.

A perfect stone
Who would have known
you could have flown away

Pressure growing in my brain, flames crawling down the lane, faded yellow window pane, holding long forgotten blame.
Focus on the line of light, imagine everything's alright

Silence inside me.

See the sky it's turning bright, I see the sky I see the light.
I see the sky it's turning bright, I see the sky I see the light.
I see the sky I see the light
I see the sky I see the light
Little girl I hold you in my dreams, little girl I hold you in my dreams.
