LYRICS:

Love
Soft and warm
Is between
You and me
Until dawn

And the sun
Starts to shine
You are mine
For all time

Spring rushes in
Winter's gone
We'll go on
In our love

Oh, how strong
Stay with me
Always be with me
Say you'll never leave
Stay by my side
For all my life

And I
Would do for you
Anything
Even sing
When you're blue

And hope that I
Will always be
The one you see
Every night

Starts shine bright
Love is there
In the air
You and me

Side by side
Stay with me
Always be with me
Say you'll never leave
Stay by my side
For all my life

I'm so glad I found you, girl
You've made me look at a
Brand new world

And I
See the sky
Clear and blue
I love you
Oh, my love

In your eyes
Soft and brown
Love is down
Deep inside

And the sun
Starts to shine
You are mine
For all time

Side by side
Stay with me
Always be with me
Say you'll never leave
Stay by my side
For all my life

Brand New World

Technological Rhythm With House Shuffle

Technological Rhthym With House Shuffle

A new attempt to work with classical instruments. A mix of classic and rock elements. Look forward. Think positive. Let's go to a better future.

Look Forward - OMCB

This is a cover of a cover, so to speak.  The original by The Marvelettes from 1961 was covered by The Beatles in 1963 on their second album, "With The Beatles", and it is The Beatles' version that I am covering here.  It's a repeated four-chord, doo wop progression from the Motown era. Although the lyrics revolve around snail mail  it's still a good, fun song and I like it.

Please Mr. Postman

"Please Mr. Postman"

Spin My Arrow - Beat by Justin Loring . I originally did a similar track with Codex Scrolls and Tubo DJ and Guitar beats . a year ago but being a song I like I felt it with this beat and I never have had it on my page so Justin Loring made a beat that connected with the writing again and I revived it

her: Tell me more about my hair
him: It is mystery, black as a summer's night
her: Tell me more of my skin
him: It is white as the snow, immaculate in the light

her: what do you love about my hands?
him: they bless everything you touch
her: what do you love  my lips?
him: the roses are afraid to bloom, they're so red and lush

HIM:
let me make you my wife
i will describe to you, all of life
to will hold you and protect you, and love you so



HER:
i won't let myself be your bride
i am in the darkness, i am my only guide
how can i know, if all my love truly shows?

and so he thought.....

HIM:
I will give her my eyes
she will not know my surprise
i want to show her the light
from her beauty that shines
all around her

and now with her new sight, open eyes in delight,
and this is what he said to she

HIM:
Now my love, tell me what you see?
Now my love, will you marry me?
Now my love, i hope you can see


HER:
I see a blind man! a liar it seems!
why is just now, that i can see!?
you have no sight? have you never seen me?
have you always lied to me?

Him: No! my love!

Her: have you always been blind to me?

HER
you said my hair was a mystery, black as a summers night
you said my skin was white as the snow, immaculate in  light
you said my hands blessed everything that they touch
you said my lips scared the roses from bloom, so red and lush


HER: and now I say to you!

HIM: no, please!

HER: leave me!


and so he was gone
and time passed on,
now she's missing her true love
and she's called for him

to return love her again
forgive her and trust again

then she had learned
when he failed to return
he had taken his own life
because she refused to be his wife


a letter arrived for her, a note was scribed just for her

my love, take care of my eyes,
for now they are yours
