This is the built on a poem by my Grandad Bill Stapleton. He wrote it on the 23rd of October 1969  by request of his Aunt Cora!

Friend of Friendship

A friend is a very special thing
Warm and close and comforting
A golden treasure, rich and rare
Worthy of all our tender care.

A friend must be a friend of a friend
Never possessed or yours to lend
No money can buy or jewels trade
This is how a friendship is made

Will friendship last or will it sever?
The poor are sure the rich are never
With mutual trust and honour paid
This is how a friendship is made

🧓🏼Friend to Friendship

No Tears Left

Time Machines (2024) Anthology CD1 Track 04

[Verse 1]
Took a punch to the gut –
but I didn’t cry.
Mirror stared back,
but I couldn’t try.

[Chorus]
La-la-la, I slip away.
In your eyes – always gray.
La-la-la, I want to stay
where wrong feels okay.

[Verse 2]
Only seventeen,
too many nights.
They touch like silence,
like I have no rights.

[Chorus]
La-la-la, I slip away.
In your eyes – always gray.
La-la-la, I want to stay
where wrong feels okay.

[Verse 3]
Say yes when I mean no.
Smile cracked, lips slow.
Name in ash,
on a stall that won’t last.

[Chorus]
La-la-la, I slip away.
In your eyes – always gray.
La-la-la, I want to stay
where wrong feels okay.

[Bridge]
If you hear me – someday,
I was never just the fade.
I was here.
I was brave.

[Chorus]
La-la-la, I slip away.
In your eyes – always gray.
La-la-la, I want to stay
where wrong feels okay.
