Full song sketches that become backing tracks for our church: First Love Church - Hawaii.

First Love Church Hawaii Praise and Worship

Don’t you leave me out
We were only trying to find out why
Love was passing by
In an echo’s pressing sound
 
Doesn’t matter now
Stop the tears welling in your eyes
You’re breaking up the sky
Like a widow’s broken vow
 
Here goes everything
You’re my dearest friend and enemy
You belong with me
Like young love belongs to spring
Now don’t tell me that I’m wrong again
I dream of living a life
Where neither of us fears looking behind
 
Is your faith restored?
Now that every heaven’s out of reach
Thunder on the beach
Where you once would ask for more
 
Will it be the same?
When you build your family
With your next enemy
Tell me who’ll be next to blame
 
Or could it be the start
Of something beautiful for you
Where you can see it too
Either way we’d be apart
Either way it would break my heart
 
I dream of living a life
Where neither of us fears looking behind
 
Don’t just look away
Let me know for once what’s on your mind
Leave some truth behind
If we go our separate ways
Before I step into darker days

An oldie but goodie.  Worked on the rhythm part months ago and finally finished the full version.  GR-55 synth organ and rotary guitar part on the bridge.  ...And yes, this will become a worship backing track for our minimalist worship team.

This is a real pleasure for me to present this collab with my dear friend Alexis :) https://soundcloud.com/alexis-roche-2
Some time ago,  I proposed to Alexis a cover of this "cult" song for our generation in France named "Le vent nous portera" by the very popular group (at the time) Noir désir fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_vent_nous_portera . 
I thought his voice would really go well on this kind of mythical song ..reminding us of our student years :)
I must confess I was also very motivated to try the clarinet solo .... such a beautiful solo from https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akosh_Szelev%C3%A9nyi with the metal clarinet .. I think ...this is unique in French Rock'n roll ...or Rock'n roll in general ! We  hope you like our version of it !
Alexis is singing and playing two beautiful guitar parts (nylon strings and electric solo) , I took care of the rest !
