Ran to the mountain top but still not high or far enough away 
I still could hear them call my name 
Chocking on soda pop it fizzled to my tired and worried brain 
For a moment I forgot their pain 
Love, Used to hold each other when the day was done
Love, Now we duck and cover cause we can’t outrun 
My girl is beautiful sharp mind hot body personality 
She brings to life my wildest dreams 
My mind is hijacked thinking real is fake 
now true and fantasy is on a collision course full steam 
Love, Acting like a stranger but I know you well
Love, Waving to each other from across the cell 
deja vu  I lose my mind just thinking bout you
But then it’s 
Holy smokes when you come around here 
Oh yeah 
Believe in me like I believe in you 
She has a softer side when showcased on the full sized movie screen
But when the lights go down oh no
From far away the hurricane looks like a pillow in the blue 
The silver lining hides the truth 
Love, Used to hold each other when the day was done
Love, Now we duck and cover cause we can’t outrun 
Love, Acting like a stranger but I know you well
Love, waving to each other from across the cell
I used to get real scared just thinking bout it WWIII 
now psychopathic thugs have got nothing on me
But still it’s 
Holy smokes when you come around here

come around here

C'était une chanson difficile à écrire même si je ne l'ai pas voulue triste
Je pensais très fort à mon vieux père qui perd la mémoire tout en restant souriant et dont ma mère s'occupe continuellement

Dans ce monde qui se déchire n'oublions pas ceux qu'on aime. A la fin c'est cet amour qui restera.


------- 

Quand tous les jours suivent les mêmes nuits
Dans un cycle infini
Les couleurs de mes souvenirs
S'estompent vers le gris

Et si un de ces jours
A rebours
Je venais à perdre l'envie
Je sais que tu serais mon appui
Au bord de l'oubli

Je n'ai plus peur du temps qui passe
Mon amour, mais dans mon cœur que tu te lasses
Et si le monde s'évanouit pour moi
Je sais qu'à la fin ton amour restera
Et je souris

Quand la mémoire glisse de mes mains
Tu guides mon chemin
Car dans le quotidien
Je ne ferai bientôt plus rien

Et tous les enfants de nos enfants
Je les vois de temps en temps
Mais je sens que leur vie
N'est déjà plus ma vie
Le bonheur, j'oublie aussi

Je n'ai plus peur du temps qui passe
Mon amour, mais dans mon cœur que tu te lasses
Et si le monde s'évanouit pour moi
Je sais qu'à la fin ton amour restera
Et je souris

Le monde s'efface autour de moi
Tu restes là
Le monde s'efface autour de moi
Tu restes là
Le monde s'efface autour de moi
Mais pas toi


------
When all the days follow the same nights
In an infinite cycle
The colours of my memories
Fade to grey

And if one of these days
Backwards
I lose my desire
I know you'll be my support
On the edge of oblivion

I'm no longer afraid of the passing of time
My love, but in my heart that you get tired
If the world fades for me
I know that in the end your love will remain
And I smile

When memory slips from my hands
You guide my way
For in the everyday
I won't be doing anything soon

And all our children's children
I see them from time to time
But I feel that their life
Is no longer my life
I forget happiness too

I'm no longer afraid of the passing of time
My love, but in my heart that you get tired
If the world fades for me
I know that in the end your love will remain
And I smile

The world is fading around me
You're still here
The world is fading around me
You're still here
The world is fading around me
But not you

Au Bord de l'Oubli

The colorful symbols are my message to everyone... 🌍 ☮︎ 👍 🍀 2024 for a better world...!

Your Part

Music Beethoven Sonata in A Maj

Lyrics, Vocals, Keyboards, Production  John Stone

Moonlight
Night fell without its moonlight setting up an even chance
There’s a contract to be honoured. Reputation to enhance
For all intents  you’re  only there to watch the world go by
Checking out each stranger trying not to catch their eye
You like the scent of danger you like the smell of fear
The churning in your stomach when the prey getting near
You feel your heart is pounding  as the blood begins to flow
But all that really matters is the target and the blow

There’s no moonlight in the city and there’s  darkness in the night
Now with the daylight  fading you’ll be hiding from the light
You were told the mark is coming but they’ve misled you in the past
But you’re prepared for darkness as long as it may last 
As the minutes become hours and  the hours become the past

You  wouldn’t do this In the daylight with so many prying eyes
They would catch your careful glances and see through your disguise
But darkness just like moonlight always lies.

Trying not to look suspicious you’ll be looking at your phone
Just like any other man who finds himself alone
But you’ll be very careful  keeping one eye in the street
And focus your attention on the man you’re  here to greet

And he’s coming round the corner, you know you’ve got your man
He’s both careful and attentive but that doesn’t change your plan 
You watch him very closely watching out for signs of fear
Making sure that in the darkness that there’s no one coming near
He’s passes you so close that you can almost touch his face
But you let him pass and follow him towards a quieter place
You sense his pace has quickened, as if he senses something wrong
Maybe your imagination is keeping motivation strong
He turns a final corner and both of you now know
That there’s no more road to travel and there’s nowhere, nowhere else to go

You like the scent of danger you like the smell of fear
The churning in your stomach when the prey getting near
You feel your heart is pounding  as the blood begins to flow
But all that really matters is the target and the blow

There’s no moonlight in the city and there’s  darkness in the night
And now the light has faded you’ll be hiding from the light
To vanish in the darkness as a felon on the run
Laying low until the next time now the covenant is done

Moonlight

Dear friends, I really hope that we poor people on this earth will be able to experience many, many seasons in the future as well!
Sometimes it looks bad!

How many Seasons

I can feel the wind blowing from the ocean
it is so strong - it comes straight from south east
it is so hard for the birds
to be able to fly with their wings
and it feels that the autumn is here


When all is okey, I can see colors
of yellow and red with some green in between
and soon the trees will loose their leaves
but the trees will be lovely anyhow
and it feels that the autumn is here


The kids love to kick around in the dry leaves
which explode to the sky - it’s a power-ful sight
but sometimes the kids will be wet
and their mothers might sometimes get mad
and it feels that the autumn is here

I wonder now - how many seasons
can I survive - before my days are gone
it is so important to take care
of what nature will provide for us
so I can feel that the autumn has come

How many Seasons - 2024-10-28 15.04

Never Too Late

This song I wrote back in 2022 and I wrote it while depressed about Covid but it seems to fit right in with the present! It's basically about the anxiety one feels when life suffocates you in any way. It seems everything has gone haywire lately! Grocery prices, the rent is too damn high, our government has gone berserk, A.I. taking over our music and our minds, on and on and on and on! The song was longer but I edited down for the video which just droped on YouTube! It's a very depressing song but I think I played some cool guitar on it and sang it ok! The tail end of the song is another song I wrote around the same time called "Sick Inside", I added it to the track to play over the credits in the video, and by the way, I am feeling quite sick inside! Stay cool everybody! Maybe it will pass?🙏😎✌🏼

“SUFFOCATE”

I SUFFOCATE,
I’M OVERCOME,
I LOSE ALL SENSE OF BEING,  
AND BECOME UNDONE,                

I GET DEPRESSED,
BECOME UNHINGED, 
MY DREAMS ARE ALL OF SEARCHING, 
THE OUTER FRINGE,
I SUFFOCATE, 

I COMPENSATE,
I DECOMPRESS, 
I SINK TO THE BOTTOM,
OF MY CONSCIOUSNESS, 
  
I EMPATHIZE,
I TRY TO TUNE,       
BUT SOMETIMES I LOSE FOCUS,
AS IF I'M ON THE MOON,    
I SUFFOCATE, 
I SUFFOCATE.

"SUFFOCATE" (Video - https://youtu.be/OiYdwdCDixg)

I wrote this forty years ago as part of the "Scenes of St. Francis" small-town song anthology and thought it might be fun to post as fall is winding down but before the Christmas season gets into full swing.  St. Francis, Kansas is a little prairie town nestled in a shallow river valley and has an abundance of trees, mostly cottonwoods, but a few hardwoods that stand out especially in the fall. And with the trees was an abundance of squirrels always playing chase or hide and seek when they weren't getting into mischief.  They needed a song, and with my daughters being so young, I wanted to make it in the form of a children's song that they could sing along to.  As adult women, they still like to sing along when they hear it which is a good thing since my own singing voice has largely depleted with age.  But it is a nice reminder that once upon a time I could sing:) Rescued and remixed from an old but faithful cassette tape.

Squirrel Song lyrics:
Hop, skip, and jump, and away they go,
Haven't got a care in the world.
Playing hide and seek 'round an old tree trunk,
I'm talking 'bout my friend the squirrel.

Gathering nuts is a way of life,
But even they know when to play,
And though winter's coming before too long,
They still live life day by day.
Chorus:
Just let their antics entertain you,
From a high-wire act to a tree-top stunt or two,
There's not a dull moment when you see them around,
There's fun wherever they're found.

Instrumental hums then repeat chorus

Hop, skip, and jump, and away they go,
They have something we need to learn;
That a happy life is made of work and play
When each one gets a turn.

Squirrel Song (from Scenes of St. Francis)

Voici une nouvelle reprise d'une chanson que j'adore depuis toujours
Elle provient de l'album "Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe" qui n'avait plus le droit de s'appeler "YES" suite à leur scission mouvementée...
J'ai toujours trouvé qu'elle était un peu trop courte tellement elle était belle et pour le coup je suis juste parti d'une simple suite d'accords que j'ai transposé d'un ton, compte tenu de la voix incroyable de Jon, et je l'ai reprise de mémoire en laissant sortir les notes et l'intensité que j'entendais dans ma tête 

----
Let us be together
Let's pretend that we are free
Let's all be where the angels find us
We all have the key
Shall we seal the truth of life
Shall we light the heavens
We're so good at finding pleasure
As to what we are, and how we fit together

Let us sing the song it is
Let the sound of all belief
Let's all find that space in life
To follow in between
It's something that I feel
To pour upon my soul
Countenance of love
For one n' all
To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
And as before, and like before
We'll do again

To know there's so many ways
The force of nature prevails
I lay down, I lay down and I pray

Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again
Let's get our hearts together
As before, and like before
We'll do again

Do again...

-----
Et si tous ensemble
Nous faisions comme si nous étions libres
Soyons là où les anges nous trouve
Nous avons tous la clé
Allons-nous sceller la vérité de la vie
Allons-nous éclairer les cieux 
Nous sommes si doués pour trouver du plaisir
A ce que nous sommes
Et à la façon dont nous nous intégrons les uns aux autres

Chantons la chanson telle qu'elle est
Laissons le son de toutes les croyances
Trouvons tous cet espace dans la vie
Pour se faufiler
C'est quelque chose que je ressens
Pour déverser sur mon âme
Un visage d'amour
Pour tous et chacun
Pour comprendre qu'il y a tant de façons
Où la force de la nature l'emporte
Je m'allonge, je m'allonge et je prie

Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons

Pour comprendre qu'il y a tant de façons
Où la force de la nature l'emporte
Je m'allonge, je m'allonge et je prie

Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons
Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons
Rassemblons nos cœurs
Comme avant, et comme avant
Nous recommencerons

Nous recommencerons
