No More Tears was one of my favourite songs I have ever worked on as I wanted it to be more intense and different. I started working on it after the release of Live It Up With You, when I came up with the idea to make a Drum & Bass

This song was written with all my emotions of feeling sad and happy at the same time, plus it was made with a burst of sugar, spice and all things nice.

Enjoy, and thank you all for listening!

No More Tears

My Father played this instrumental and described to me the Apache native Americans on their way through a canyon . Cow boy films were topical at the time of writing this instrumental by the Shadows. enjoy!

LYRICS
-------------

Adrift In a world that you can't comprehend
As you shuffle down sidewalks you used to defend
And pick through the garbage from parties you no longer attend

You know you're a stranger in still stranger lands
Where the crumbling monuments once used to stand
And they look at you funny when you ask them where to find an honest man

When you're gone, long, long gone

When they try to dismiss you, you piss on their shoes
As they fondle their falsehoods and call them the truth
If only the hunger in our bellies were so easily soothed

But you are not like them and you don't even try
No matter how rotten, you can't make them cry
You're as real as their shadows but they'll never understand why

Until you're gone, long, long gone

So you eat in the market and sleep in a hole
You drink from your hands now instead of a bowl
Stand naked before them to show how the years take their toll

And when the wild dogs come to nip at your legs
And the passing onlookers who expect you to beg
But your life was a promise and it's far too late now to renege

And then you're gone, long, long gone

The Cynic

About the Title: David and I were discussing the title of our piece and I mentioned that it didn't matter to me.  "I am easy to please. Unless I'm not".  And thus, our title. Thank you, @david-dunhamuser589535203 ! 

About the Artwork: This little beauty is a portrait of me drawn by my son at the age of 7 (many years ago!). Please note the happy mother caring for her children.  This is a detail from his whole family portrait in which small characters float around a huge virago-type mother.  My son was the only person smiling in his rendering of our family.  I suppose he was able to look past his plight and smile.
My self-esteem hasn't quite recovered.

Easy To Please (Unless I'm Not!)  David Dunham; classical guitar, Debra Buesking; piano
