Wow. Amazing! Would love to see this live!

LYRICS:
The sky has come to show the sun how far its rays can shine
Intertwined
Golden vines
Always on my mind

The difference came to give the same a chance to take a break
Goodness sake
Let it shake
Always on my mind

The night has come with glee
The moon sits patiently in trance
It smiles
Meanwhile
We dance

The time is here, the time is near, the time has come and gone
Scurried away
Goodbye day
Always on my mind

The night has come to say
“It’s my moon that leads you way, so shine."
Night, your light is mine.

These are the thoughts, these are the knots
Which tie my soul in a strangled hold
Let it go, let me go.
Always on my mind
Always on my mind
Always on my mind

Double Trapeze Music

I wrote the verses & chorus in May 2018 after one morning, high on love-drugs after falling in weekend-love at a festival, I cracked an egg into the compost bin and proceeded to put the shells in the frying pan. Yes yes, I was in total La La love land. But as can be expected from a festival love affair, just a few weeks later the castles I'd built in my imagination started to crumble and turn into compost themselves. And from that compost grew the bittersweet bridge to complete the song's story. 

So here's a bittersweet love song dedicated to everyone out there who falls in love too easily or lets their imaginations get the better of them from time to time. 

The first release with my Sarabande sisters Shiloh Parkerson & Hannah Levy's gorgeous voices intermingling with mine - YAY! 
♡♡♡ Heartfelt thanks to my Patreon supporters for making it and others possible ♡♡♡ 

Factoid. I wrote the opening melody as part of my "Melody-a-Day Mission" for the month of May 2017. This one was inspired by "Dream" by Everly Brothers.
lyrics
I've been bumpin into things 
like they talk about in old love songs. 
Every since you tuned my heart strings as high as they can go, 
I have been 
dizzy.... 



Feel like I've been drinkin alcohol. 
And I know it makes no sense at all. 
What is this powerful chemical, coursing through my veins, 
makin me 
dizzy. 

I want you 
to hold me tight 
all through 
the end of time 
I know I've drunk 
a little too much of you 

I know I've fallen much too far too soon, again. 
I've built another castle on the Moon. 
And the arches are crumbling, and red flags line the halls. 
But I ignore that all, cuz 
oo this drug is strong. 
And when I am on it I can pretend nothing's wrong so 
until this spell is spent 
and our castle turns to ruins 
I'll be here 
dizzy 
on the Moon, 

dreamin up a whole damn life. 
I'm even dreamin I could be your wife. 
Dreamin is all I can do, without you... 
dreamin til I'm 
dizzy. 

I want you 
to hold me tight 
all through 
the end of time 
I know I've drunk 
a little too much of you
