Adeline McBride - The sound of you name

I felt a frisson, a presence, as she passed me; “never fall behind” she said
Blue eyes, yeah china blue; or green maybe 
The silhouette of a crown was it? Or of his fine hair on a perfect head
I lost them in the dream; never saw them again
 
Green on blue, he flashed by me; Kingfisher
She’s chimera, he’s quicksilver; Arcadia dancers 
She passes by like a mayfly; sweet Calista
You reach and fall, you try and call; they don’t answer
   
These were different, seven years on, but it felt the same
They stood and looked me in the eye, and I could only stare
Felt like honey kisses, like the remembered bliss of a dream
Felt like a lost love, then they were gone; if they were ever there

Green on blue, he flashed by me; Kingfisher
She’s chimera, he’s quicksilver; Arcadia dancers 
She passes by like a mayfly; sweet Calista
You reach and fall, you try and call; they don’t answer

Seven times seven years, waiting and waiting long 
I sensed them in the twilight, in the half conscious fall into dream time
This time I was ready, I had waited for them through the long years
I reached and touched her hair, ephemeral in the sun

Green on blue, he flashed by me; Kingfisher
She’s chimera, he’s quicksilver; Arcadia dancers 
She passes by like a mayfly; sweet Calista
You reach and fall, you try and call; they don’t answer

Kingfisher and Calista

Frozen Heart

Two Wrongs Don’t Make A Right
55bpm

V1
I can taste my salty tears,
As they pour down my face,
In the deafening silence,
Our minds go through the years,

Pre Chorus
Neither of us talking,
We can’t walk away)
We’ve taken our love for granted, 
And (now) there’s nothing more to say,

(Because)    

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright, 

V2
I can hear my heart beating,
As we both swallow our pride,
We want to run to our secret lovers,
To ease the shame inside,

Pre Chorus
Neither of us talking,
We can't walk away,
But we’ve taken our love for granted,
And there’s nothing more to say,

(Because)    

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright, 

Bridge
Did we not respect each other
Can we rebuilt the trust,
Maybe we can’t find the happiness,
In the same place it was lost,

Solo

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright,

Two Wrongs Don't Make A Right (With B3 Organ)

I've always liked the original Rammstein song and the way they'd drawn on the poetry. This was one of those late rambles played for fun but then when I heard it back......
Thank you to a very kind Soundcloud contributor for help and advise with this one.

Rosenrot (Rammstein)

I'd go anywhere in the world for you
I'd abandon best laid plans for you
Maybe do the things I thought I couldn't do
To be with you

I'm like putty in your hands
I relish your demands
And welcome every feeling you invite 
I'm enthralled and I'm transfixed
Love never felt like this
So maybe this time we got it right

I'd go anywhere in the world for you
I'd abandon best laid plans for you
Maybe do the things I thought I couldn't do
To be with you

I told you once in a flash of truth
I love the bones of you
With such intensity it almost hurts
And I still feel the same
I'm like a moth to your flame
And I don't care if I burn

I'd go anywhere in the world for you
I'd abandon best laid plans for you
Maybe do the things I thought I couldn't do
To be with you

Be With You

This original song expresses the belief that God carries us through life with the help of angels. Though I would never profess to understand these things in any detail, I do feel that angels are all around us as surely as the darkness lurks in every day. With that I recognize that they fight for us but can't always win our battles for us. We have to accept that and know that ultimately the key is that we are never alone and always loved, even if we lose some of our battles.

Lyrics:
When Angels Fail by Craig Durgy

God, He has so much to carry, we reach out to Him in our way
With hopes that hopes won’t soon be buried, for some to fight, for some to pray

With wisdom stretched and torn between us, sight and feeling grown so frail
We trust somehow that He’ll redeem us, even when His Angel’s fail

His legions must be all about us, spreading wings to shield and heal
Evil hunts our hearts to rout us, we make ourselves its ready meal
We make ourselves its ready meal

But angels battle unrelenting, every moment, every nail
So, bear the cross be not lamenting, even when His angels fail

Time is hollow like a reed, reaching from the shadowed depths
Up in the air to breathe, and fill the void with every breath

If not for those that do God’s work, this world would long ago have died
But through the darkness, light preserved, to dry each tear that ever cried
To dry each tear that ever cried

So, when you face your worst despair, impaled upon the Devil’s tail
Fear not for your angel’s there, and through the tears love will prevail

Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Even when the Angel’s fail
Side by side, love will prevail

When Angels Fail

This is another old one from the early 90s remade on the Tascam DP24. The theme is fitting for the coming start of a new year. Hope you enjoy this one and have a good, new start to 2021. Morry & Sam
