Beautiful moving song and fabulous performances!!

fabulous interlude, working so well with the evocative words.

Seamless wonderful composition. The song gets better and better as it goes along

A warning sound
throw arms
lie awake
disappear in daydreams now

Hold your tongue
Light the match 
Tides will turn
so fill the rafts

And you take just what you can
Save yourself 
nowhere man
So just take what you can

Look away 
coup de grace
Featherweight
moved too fast

No I won't feel let down
Disappear in a crowd
and you take 
just what you can

Sing soft rains
we go quietly..

Coup de Grace

Written 1984 by Terry Reeves
Performed by: Vocals - Terry Reeves, Guitar Terry Reeves, Bass - Brian Reeves
Recorded: Wallington Croydon London


For me George Best was the greatest player that ever lived, but suffered from being better at what he did than everybody else. 
At one time in my life I think I was within an inch of becoming an alcoholic and yes at the time it solved all my problems. I was rescued by a beautiful women but unfortunately George was not.
He was one of my greatest heroes and I spent a large amount of my early years trying to emulate some of his football skills. I was given the opportunity to meet him on two occasions and he was a really nice genuine man and I was really upset when he died.
My brother Brian and me completed this recording in one afternoon and he came up with the fantastic bass line, it was always our intention to develop it and take it further.

This is my tribute to George Best

LYRICS

Yes I drank the bottle dry
Please don't ask the question why
Just except this drunken man
Drinking for another plan

Couldn't take things in my stride
Second place it hurt my pride
Told to take some time to think
Think I'll have another drink

CHORUS

Yes he's the greatest he really has it all
The king of any man who ever kicked a ball
He makes the head lines every time he shows his face
I wonder if they know our hero up in space
If not it's just a disgrace

He's here
Georgie   
No fear

Tried to force me to retire
From the bottle I admire
Knew I'd lose out in the end
Destroying me or my best friend

Belong to no one else but me
I'm not public property
I know I have myself to blame
Life is not my favourite game

CHORUS

It's not as sad as you might think
Not looking for a missing link
And I don't need an open door 
Cause all I have to do is poor

Georgie Georgie come back Georgie
Georgie Georgie come back Georgie

Love asked love: "What is not yet mine?"
Love said to love: "Everything, everything is yours!"
Love kissed love: "Dearest, do you love me?"
Love kissed love: "Eternally, eternally!"
