Great potential in here - can imagine the harmonies and maybe some crazed guitars as well.  A really good demo though, looking forward to when its finished

this is the second song i hear today that somewhat sit in a depth of melancholy and honestly written & sung words... great work and expression Nigel!

another legendary song Nigel :-) im impressed with your bravery to make songs of this type and content ... excellent lyrics and beautifully delivered sir :-)

@dgreening: Thank you very much Dave, from someone who creates such beautiful music, that's a great complement. 

@anthonygreentree: :) Glad you like it Anthony, I plan to work on it a little but hope to retain the softness

@anthonygreentree: Thanks Anthony I had the same feeling, glad you think so. Do you play? If so I'd be honoured if you would consider adding some fiddle?

THE BEST OF ACOUSTIC MATE LOVE THE REAL VIBE.NOT THAT IVE EVER TRIED IT.

@squidger: This is a really rough demo, I need to redo it, promise I won't lose the live feel though :)

Old song, never recorded, until now. Not brilliant, just quick and dirty, lo-fi. 


Dead and down the drain
Run my dreams washed down by rain
I pray for the sun
But the forecast stays the same…

Any fool can see
What a fool you made of me.
I reached for the sky
For a hand to rescue me
It's a waste of time

It’s already too late	
They’re all ready to take control
It’s all out of my hands
I’ll just sit here and wait
My fate

We all need a crutch
We all need someone to touch
And the hands that feed
Are the ones we need so much

My love don't speak its name
It just hangs its head in shame
And fair-weather friends
Write me postcards from the plane
They don't waste no time

It’s already too late
They’re all ready to take control
It’s all out of my hands
I’ll just sit here and wait
My fate

And it’s too late to help me now
Yes it’s too late, it’s too late
I’ll just sit here alone and wait
Cos it’s my fate, it’s my fate

Dead and down the drain
Run my dreams washed down by rain
