PARADOXXX

We've been rehearsing this fireside friendship/love song about the passing and changes of time all winter and watching the birds circling in the evening over the woods across the way. In North Norfolk you're never far from heath, holt and wild water so there are a lot of birds, including the winter geese audibly referenced at the end of the song. We both love this song.

Across the evening sky
All the birds are leaving
Ah how can they know
It's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire
I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

Sad, deserted shore
Your fickle friends are leaving
Ah, but then you know
It's time for them to go
But I will still be here
I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

And I am not alone
While my love is near me
I know it will be so
Until it's time to go
So come the storms of winter
And then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?

Who Knows Where The Time Goes?

The Rock Hotel Café
from Fill Your Head With Seaside Rock (EP) by Peacock's Tale Musical Storytelling

 
(Kate Bush might have given him his full name, Heathcliff)


Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.

Sandy pays me thirty plus board,
A cupboard above the bar,
Says it’s all the Hotel can afford
With her swimming pool and caviar.
Sandy as a class is obsolete.
Come Morning they’ll be just one star.

Cliff was the local bad boy,
Sandy the owner’s daughter.
That gold-ringed nose has cost him
All the Born To Be Wild he taught her.
The Rebel as a class is obsolete,
They’re Black Sheep to the Altar.

Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.


Still I’m eating well, mum, fried breakfasts,
The mushrooms are magic too,
The Gorbals kitchen porter eats Marxists,
The Chef just sneers at you.
The worker as a class is obsolete.
Meanwhile a good Union would do.

The girl in the snap is Sandy’s niece,
She’s as thick as clotted cream.
You don’t need degrees in Economics
To demolish her holiday Dream.
‘Love as a class is obsolete,
It’s not like we’re Just Seventeen.’

Pastrychef escapes with his girlfriend,
A chambermaid called Billy,
The day-release psychotic in the woodshed
Keeps trying to chop himself free.
The misfit as a class is obsolete.
I’m applying for a Ph. D.

Just a note to tell you I’m working
At the Rock Hotel Café,
Cliff the Boss has taken me off serving,
Says my adding takes his profits away.
Cliff as a class is obsolete.
It’s all Surplus Value anyway.

I Hate You, My Love

I still can't get used to it

Fell in love you

ANGELS WHO CAME BEFORE by Nova J

[Vers 1]
People come, people go
Different places, different faces 
Sometimes they shrink, sometimes they grow
Love dissolves in empty spaces

[Bridge]
All these people served a purpose
Teachers and lovers and friends
I’ve lost plenty along the way
Good, and bad, things came to an end

[Vers 2]
So many times I said those words
And thought I felt them too
But now I know, without a doubt
No one compares to you

[Chorus]
I’ll always have a place in my heart
For the angels who came before
But they flew away, and here you stay 
Everyday, I love you more 

[instrumental]

[Chorus]
I’ll always have a place in my heart
For the angels who came before
But they flew away, and here you stay 
Everyday, I love you more 

[Outro]
Everyday, I love you more

Angels who came before

Why can't I?
