The Shape of Things to Come

She Was There

She Was There (deep flamenco 2b)

[intro]

[instrumental]

The time came 
and she was there
Always there
She was there

She came alone
She came for me
Won't let me be
She was there

[chorus]
My life nowhere
Till she came
She came to me
Only then 
could I be

The time came 
and she was there
I was alone
Going nowhere

[instrumental]

[verse]
I live a life with no direction
Move through this world with disaffection
I hold on, don't see why
Nothing seems real
There is no kindness that I feel

[verse]
The people I meet, have little time
They live alone, inside their minds
I cannot share, nobody cares
My whole world 
Was going nowhere

[deep]
But then she came

[chorus]
My life nowhere
Till she came
She came to me
Only then 
could I be

The time came 
and she was there
I was alone
Going nowhere

[instrumental]

She came alone
She came for me
Won't let me be
She was there

[instrumental]

But then she came

[outro]

She Was There

I Don't Know You
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[intro]

[instrumental]

all we hear
all we see
all there is
and will be
It is all here
for you and me
but soon gone
and sooner forgotten
those born well
those misbegotten
those who yearn
but never learn
look ahead
nothing astern

[instrumental]

the waves will soothe
their gentle sway
all a ruse
something they say
it was here
but now gone
did not belong
not yesterday

[instrumental]

what we saw
before the dawn
it is all gone
not going on
the time comes
we must fade
our future now
in retrograde
not as expected
debts now collected
and pleas rejected
cares neglected
love is lost
letters pinned
the final post
for those who sinned

[instrumental]

did we not all
no not one 
name one
OOOhhh! you forgot
well I did too
I don't know you

I don't know you

I don't know you

[instrumental]

[outro]



I Don't Know You

Blow It All Down
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[intro]

[instrumental]

I feel alone when I’m with you  
There is nothing more to say  
Nothing here, not for us two
What we had has gone away

You hurt me one last time  
You took away all that was mine  
Like a storm that’s here to stay  
Won't wait for light of day

I have to roll across the land  
and blow down all that I see  
When I’m done, nothing will stand  
Not a trace of you and me

[chorus]
I must howl, lost in the wind  
hide my tears in the rain 
I have lost all that was kind  
and what is left is made of pain

Not a trace of you and me

[instrumental]

I must howl, lost in the wind  
hide my tears in the rain 
I have lost all that was kind  
and what is left is made of pain

[instrumental]

I feel alone when I’m with you  
There is nothing more to say  
Nothing here, not for us two
What we had has gone away

You hurt me one last time  
You took away all that was mine  
Like a storm that’s here to stay  
Won't wait for light of day

I have to roll across the land  
and blow down all that I see  
When I’m done, nothing will stand  
Not a trace of you and me

Not a trace of you and me

[chorus]
I must howl, lost in the wind  
hide my tears in the rain 
I have lost all that was kind  
and what is left is made of pain

[instrumental]

[chorus]
I must howl, lost in the wind  
hide my tears in the rain 
I have lost all that was kind  
and what is left is made of pain

[outro]


Blow It All Down

I write the lyrics; Mr. Alfonso Suno composes the music.  Working with the lovely Ms. Ai Ongaku, they create the arrangements.  Ms. Ongaku and her crowd are responsible for the performances.  My part in creating these tracks is very small. Nonetheless, I am to blame.  Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
