listening again, and again ...i felt oh WOW at this point.....such a nice, bittersweet song

'Towards another someone' - yes and what an engaging melody and vocal - you got it!

OMG, I love this song! Every verse lyric is amazing, but the chorus just slays me! Such awesome writing! "You’re a master of perfection In all but my affection I’m not a prize that you have won Love’s a seed that you must sow And starved of you, don’t you know I’ll turn away from you towards the sun Towards another someone" Wow!

Missed this one going up! Its great and haunting Karen. It almost has a hint of a musical number about it. And I mean a GREAT musical number!

Lyrics:

I am a woman with many faces
But you never saw the one with the truth
I have been so many places
Along the way I left you some clues..
If you haven't found them, they are still there
Hidden..Waiting for you

I've been high up in the mountains
I've been down by the sea
But I never wore the same face
You never saw the pain in me
If you haven't found me , I am still there
Hidden..Waiting for you

Help me get down from the mountain
Follow the road down to the sea
And if you look closely you will find me
Hidden... Waiting for you

Hidden.. Waiting for you..

Hidden

The Inners (1989) - Joe Hisaishi - Piano Cover

- It's been about 20 years since I got hold of the sheet music for this beautiful piece, composed by Joe Hisaishi in 1989, and I've finally been able to record it. It took a lot of trial and error to interpret and express the piece, but I performed it with all my heart. Thank you very much for listening!

Shadows danced on my night stand 
Fell asleep in nowhere land 
Showed up on Thursday night 
But I lost that gig to a tribute band 

Took the train down to the east side
Wore my shades just to hide my eyes
Those brownstone girls swirled in my head
And I drifted off and took the ride

And it’s one more night 
One more night 
One more night on Ludlow Street 
And it’s one more night 
One more night 
One more night on Ludlow Street 

Ran into Jane somewhere in between
She sells oils and wears too much green
She said, “rock's a scam and jazz is dead”
And then she kissed my cheek and split the scene

And it’s one more night 
One more night 
One more night on Ludlow Street
You play it straight 
You lose the beat
One more night on Ludlow Street

And it’s one more night 
One more night 
One more night on Ludlow Street

Lyrics :
Baby no me pidas que me aparte
Yo ya te he buscado en todas partes
Solamente vengo a recordarte que estoy
Imaginandote
Una y otra vez
Que tu estas aqui conmigo
Acariciandome
No seas timido
Dejate querer
Que si dudas te prometo
Que vas a volver

No tengo miedo
Soy un kamikaze
Mi imaginacion se prende con lo que me haces
Diario yo te pienso
Te tengo en mis suenos
Eres el motor para escribir todos mis versos
No te voy a mentir te quiero todo pa mi

Take Flight

Take flight, you’re on your way tonight
Take time, you’re always on my mind
You’re always on my mind

Dark night, we can’t see stars or light
We can’t see stars or light
We can’t see stars or light

Star light, I’m on my way tonight
I’ll be there, at first light
At first light

Star light, I’m on my way tonight
I’ll be there, at first light
At first light

Take flight

Well hello… A new song, with a new instrument. A pawnshop Ukulele. Ha. What a fun instrument to play. Just had to. A few simple Uke chords, some acoustic guitar soloing, and a tale of sailing the ocean as a metaphor for life. And yes, lyrically I was talking with a seagull. And just so you know I have gotten really good at ‘talking’ with birds. I can click talk like a grackle, whisper whistle like a robin, whistle talk a curious melody like a chickadee, among others. Still working on my duck call. Ha… Years ago, I remember annoying some people at a party with this wooden duck call my buddy had. So maybe a future song about birds? And right outside my door there are some interesting avian dynamics between the grackles and robins nesting in the spruce trees. They argue every day, about territory and invasion of their personal space, but when danger appears, like a hawk or cat, they come together in unison to fend off the threat. In the natural biology of things, humans haven’t fallen too far from that spruce tree. Anyway, robins do not like the dark. They anxiously chatter with loud worry chirping amongst themselves at dusk, and create a chorus melody of happy song at dawn. With me being a late sleeper, their morning serenades can be quite bothersome at 4:30AM. A lesson for me though, as at times I am not so welcoming as I wakeup to another frenetic global morning. Anyway, birds and their enthusiastic singing far outpaces my own. Ha. There are many other birds here, but I will save that for another time. Hope you are well. Thanks for dropping by, Mark

Verse 1:
Not deep and meaningful just real
A chance is lost to tell you how I feel
As I cover up the gaping hole you miss
My smile is just a curving of my lips

Pre-chorus:
The great pretence
My last defence
You see I'm hiding
And every day
Is a chance to say
Please come and find me

Chorus:
And I'll open up a crack
Let a little sadness out
Not enough to push you back
Just enough to show you what I'm all about
Look in my eyes
And you will see this time
You knew me only half as well as I knew you

Verse 2:
As I carry out my daily work by rote
The date passes yearly without note
A testament to being in control
You assume the loss it, took so little toll

Pre-chorus:
So bloody hard
Not to discard
What won't define me
And every day 
Is a chance to say
Please try and find me

Chorus:
And I'll open up a crack
Let a little sadness out
Not enough to push you back
Just enough to show you what I'm all about
Look in my eyes
And you will see this time
You knew me only half as well as I knew you

Open Up a Crack

I heard your news today
Felt your world peel away
And your heart was crumbling fast
I wish I could tell you it won't last

I was there 
Right between darkness and despair
And everywhere I looked, I saw what I'd lost
Taken for granted at so little cost

Chorus 
Hold those memories close
That they're all you have hurts the most
Specks of time, magnified, playing like a movie
Inside your mind
Playing like a movie, inside your mind

I can tell you this my friend
Slowly the pain becomes a little less
It never leaves, it deserves to stay
You won't give her rightful place away

Chorus 
Hold those memories close
That they're all you have hurts the most
Specks of time, magnified, playing like a movie
Inside your mind
Playing like a movie, inside your mind

Step by step by step by little step
Every day you grieve leaves one day less
Lean on me, and I'll lean on you
And maybe together, we'll both get through

Hold those memories close....

Hold Those Memories Close

Well is dry, nothing’s inside
Curtains drawn nowhere to hide
But if you didn’t know, you’d never guess
Love is gone, it’s gone so far away
Try as you might, won’t make it stay
So why not try a little less

You’re a master of perfection
In all but my affection
I’m not a prize that you have won
Love’s a seed that you must sow
And starved of you, don’t you know
I’ll turn away from you towards the sun
Towards another someone

You’re used to life served up on a plate
No need to try, no need to wait
That silver spoon worked such a treat
But I am not your given right
I’m not employed, I’m not obliged
And I can walk away and not miss a beat

You’re a master of perfection
In all but my affection
I’m not a prize that you have won
Love’s a seed that you must sow
And starved of you, don’t you know
I’ll turn away from you towards the sun
Towards another someone

Want me to stay?
Think that you can change your ways?
But it’s already too late
I don’t believe that there’s anyway you can save us

You’re a master of perfection
In all but my affection
I’m not a prize that you have won
Love’s a seed that you must sow
And starved of you, don’t you know
I’ll turn away from you towards the sun
Towards another someone

Master Of Perfection

Not fair, I shout inside my head
As I hear your news and sense your dread
The harder you try to fake the ease
With which you throw your words at me
The stronger my muscles tighten

The battle ground was laid before
You took your stance with ever more
Than the dignity that I can find
I'm mute of words, blank of mind
Cos I am really frightened 

We are here, we are here
We are everywhere you want us
Anytime you need we'll take your lead
We are here, we are here
We are everywhere you want us
Anytime you need we'll take your lead
We are here

Every path will be paved
With all our love that we can save
For every encounter, every day
We get to hold your hand and say
We'll walk this road beside you

But that won't help to ease the pain
That grows in force as it turns again
To ravage you and all you've built 
While those who thrive are wracked with guilt
Cos only luck divides us

We are here, we are here
We are everywhere you want us
Anytime you need we'll take your lead
We are here, we are here
We are everywhere you want us
Anytime you need we'll take your lead
We are here

Every Path

I am numb
I’ve forgotten how to feel
I have become
An impenetrable shell of steel
I won’t succumb
To their appeals
They beat their drums
But I will not reveal

What goes on inside my head
I won’t be drawn, I can’t be read
And I have no more tears to shed 
My oath is etched upon your grave
I won’t let go, I won’t be saved

I am alone
It’s best that way
I ignore the phone
I have no words today
If they think that I’m not home
Maybe they’ll go away
Cos they just want to know
What I cannot say 'bout

What goes on inside my head
I won’t be drawn, I can’t be read
And I have no more tears to shed 
My oath is etched upon your grave
I won’t let go, I won’t be saved

My words are only mine to hear
I made a promise I will keep
I close my eyes and you’re with me
For now I've everything I need

What goes on inside my head
My vision’s dull, my passion’s dead
I have no heart, I’ve stone instead
My oath is etched upon your grave
I won’t let go, I won’t be saved

No More Tears

There are no words that I can say
To take the pain away
I write a phrase and hit delete
I write again, and then repeat

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

You turn to me for comfort and strength 
And I fail to give you what you expect
Soothing words turn to dust on my lips
Consolation I cannot give

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

Those who say everything happens for a reason
Should stay the hell away from me
Cos in a world full of madmen and villains
Why take the gentle and let the monsters run free

What do you say to someone who's lost everything
What do you say when there's nothing left to fight
I want to scream but there's no one to scream at
There must be someone to blame, right?

What Do You Say?
