I can't help feeling, all the feelings that I have for you.
I cannot hide, that deep inside, I love the things you do
My passions rising, it's surprising, the intensity
Magnetic draw, the allure, the thought of you and me

And just for one night
I could feel so good, it would feel so right
It's  out of sight
But reality arrives in the morning light
And the truth of the matter that I should have known
If it isn't real, your better off,waking up alone 

I can't deny, you caught my eye
You took my breath away
The way you move, the way you groove, the way you dress, you slay
Your laugh your smile, your look your style and all the things you say
From the first look you had me hooked, I want tol ix play the games you play

And just for one night
I could feel so good, it would feel so right
I wish I could I wish I might
Leave the earth behind and just take flight 
Just for one night
I could feel so good, it would feel so right
It's  out of sight
But reality arrives in the morning light
And the truth of the matter that I should have known
If it isn't real, your better off,waking up alone 

Waking Up Alone pre-demo

Oh Amy

I’ve Got my purple guitar 
you bought for me 
At that little bazaar (I had to beg )
just along the street (I had to beg you for money)
From our house  (our house?)
Well it used to be our house (it was always fuckin your house)
Now it’s only sticks and stones 
And full of bones ( whose bones? My bones)

inside of me 
I find 
No music left behind you 
 Just My guitar and me 

Now you’re over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning 
Running over the bridge 
I’m just water under it 
Now you’re  over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning down
Running over the bridge 
I’m just troubled water now 

I Play my purple guitar 
And sing alone 
No harmony left (no harmony)
 without a Melody (you stole)
Our song (my song)
Well it used to be our song (our song?I fuckin hate our song)
Now it’s only words and notes  (it was never my song)
That stick in my throat 

inside of me I find 
No music left behind you 
Just My guitar and me 
 
Now you’re over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning 
Running over the bridge 
I’m just water under it 
Now youre over the bridge 
And it’s burning burning down
Running over the bridge 
I’m just troubled water now 

I can’t remember the songs we used to sing together
I can’t remember (bridges are burning burning) songs we used to sing together
I can’t remember…….

A void dance ….in silence
My penance…for your sins 
(so I dance on your grave ….bridges are burning burning 
Bridges are burning burning down.

Burning down around your feet ..burning down ]
Burning down around your feet . You better run you better ri

Lighthearted piece based on an illuminated letter of a fishman in Aberdeen City Archives UNESCO recognised medieval burgh registers. It depicts sunrise on the the River Dee followed by an energetic darting dance of the fishman before he swims out to sea. The main "theme" is based on the line of text featuring the fishman - "Hic incipit liber processuum curiarum tenta pro balliuos". You can see the Fishman at https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/digital-volumes/burgh-records/aberdeen-burgh-registers/burgh-register-volume-02/102
